"Across the Sea" is generally considered a fan favorite.  It is the midway segment between ''Pinkerton's'' first half (the dropped ''[[Songs from the Black Hole]]'' material), its second half, the material written at Harvard.  Cuomo remarked: "When I got the letter, I fell in love with her. It was such a great letter. I was very lonely at the time, but at the same time I was very depressed that I would never meet her. Even if I did see her, she was probably some fourteen-year-old girl, who didn't speak English."  The song was written about a letter that Rivers received from a Japanese fan girl.  In many ways, "Across the Sea" is symbolic.
