She’s the puzzle piece behind the couch that makes the sky complete.

“If there's a goal that everyone remembers
It was back in ol' 72
We all squeezed the stick and we all pulled the trigger
And all I remember is sitting beside you

You said you didn't give a f*@k about hockey
And I never saw someone say that before
You held my hand and we walked home the long way
You were loosening my grip on Bobby Orr”

Gordon Downie / Johnny Fay / Joseph Paul Langlois / Robert Baker / Robert Gordon Sinclair

I was at Ma Blues sittin' on an amp,
playin' Twist And Shout,
when this tall drink of water walked in,
looked like she might have to shoot her way out.
Ray Wylie Hubbard--Mother Blues.

Every single word in this song-



Did the old songs taunt or cheer you?
And did they still make you cry?
Did you count the months and years
Or did your teardrops quickly dry?

 

[mr natural]

Between the windows of the sea
Where lovely mermaids flow
And no one has to think too much about Desolation Row.

Go ask your dad for the keys to the Honda
Can your sister come along, how could she not wanna

 

[ndcaster]

You take a mortal man
And put him in control
Watch him become a god
Watch people's heads a-roll

If you really need to reach me
Go to nineteen sixty-three
Playing guitar by the radio

I'm so tired of being tired
Sure as night will follow day
Most things I worry 'bout
Never happen anyway

"We pray to the tabernacle of the frothy muggament
We played to the tabernacle of the frothy muggament
We played
And they paid
And was it good?
Yay, verily, it was good.."

[Tele295]

The screen door slams
Mary’s dress sways
Like a vision she dances across the porch as the radio plays

Thunder Road - The Boss !

The last verse always gets me

There were ghosts in the eyes of all the boys you sent away,
They haunt this dusty beach road in the skeleton frames of burned-out Chevrolets
They scream your name at night in the street
Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet
And in the lonely cool before dawn
You hear their engines roaring on
But when you get to the porch they're gone on the wind…

Lilac rain, unbroken chain ...

Seeing Phil tonite!

Incredible show! With Levon's daughter, Amy Helm

 

[StrangerNY]

She asked me to stay
And I stole her room
She asked for my love
And I gave her a dangerous mind
Now she's stupid in the streets
And she can't socialize
Well, I love the little girl
And I'll love her till the day she dies

Scary Monsters and Super Creeps, Bowie

A line that you remember because it's witty, clever, poetic, well crafted, touching, a gut punch, or it just resonates with you?

For me it's; "The sunshine bores the daylights out of me..." from the Rolling Stones song 'Rocks Off'.

Crash Test Dummies, a line from the song "When I go out with Artists:" The artists of the future will make up new things and different nomenclatures. A word I have never heard used in a song before!

“Dear god i see you grinning
Must be grand always winning
How proud are you being able
To gather faith from fable”

And all the donuts have names that sound like prostitutes"
