The melody, Private Cranky, the melody.
A Sort of Homecoming, that opening line, 'so you know it's time to go'. Those notes, in that order, repeat constantly throughout the song. It's great, but it isn't rocket science.
In 13 the verse melody isn't one repeating motif like that. It's a winding, flowing whole, more a narrative.
I wouldn't call 13 a masterpiece. But it's beautiful and heavy.
