"Sweet Mary"

Yester-day, I listened to Ring of Hands (and All Together Now), and I noticed a small feature in "Sweet Mary" that I've commented about in a few others songs already.  In the backing vocals, there's the line "All alone when I wanted you so bad."  "All alone" alliterates, and since the two words begin with the same sound, there's a sense of that singularity.
