Heard this last night. Been awhile: Breathe deep the gathering doom Watch lights fade from every room Bed sitter people look back and lament Another day's useless energy is spent Impassioned lovers wrestle as one Lonely man cries for love and has none New mother picks up and suckles her son Senior citizens wish they were young Cold-hearted orb that rules the night Removes the color from our sight Red is gray and yellow is white But we decide which is right And which is an illusion The Moody Blues "Nights in White Satin"...(the talkin' part at the end of the song that is kinda creepy but very cool)

Thanks for the welcome!

A time to gain,a time to lose A time to rend,a time to sow A time for love,a time for hate A time for peace,I swear it's not too late The Byrds "Turn! Turn! Turn!(To Everything There is a Season)

I was a little too tall Could've used a few pounds Tight pants points hardly reknown She was a black haired beauty with big dark eyes And points all her own sittin' way up high Way up firm and high Bob Seger "Night Moves"

Wow...we did the campfire thing too!! What memories this brings back if only i could remember them.

On the subject of first cars,which I know is off the music subject,but the afore mentioned 1971 Ford Maverick of mine caused me to flunk my driving test the first time I took it.The officer giving the road test asked me to turn on the headlights,which went fine.Asked me to honk the horn,which went fine too.But then he asked me to turn on the windshield wipers and as I went to do this,the knob came off and I couldn't get it back on. He told me to come back a month later when it was fixed.A month later I drove my sisters car.Wasn't chancing another malfunction.

No because I like John Mellencamp...AND his band.No fault there unless you mean his political views,which doesn't really matter to me either. Music is Music. Politics is politics.

Although Jackson Browne isn't one of my all time faves,the song "Running on Empty" is.It came out about the time I got my drivers license and I can remember that song being one of the first that I had cranked up while cruising in my 1971 Ford Maverick.Lame car but it had a killer stereo.

Oh man.I forgot about the song Chicken Train.Had some friends who played in a band in the early 80's and they would play that song off the album during one of their breaks.Everybody got in a train line that went through the club and made chicken noises.Too much Jack Daniels makes you do a lot of things.

I have always like Kenny Aronoff of John Mellencamp's band. This is my first post. Hope I don't sound like a doofus.
