C = The Clash == Clampdown (live and not especially tight. And a bonus Clampdown by Bruce Springsteen.
I wish to share "Dance Hall Days" from Wang Chung, but not really for the song - check the link and explanation after this: So for some reason, my wife and I came across this website called "Secretly Horrifying Song Lyrics" where the author parses what a song is actually about. Somebody recommended it somewhere but I can't recall who, but I thank them, because this is some funny stuff - and the song is pretty creepy, once you get down to it. It in conjunction with the video makes this worth posting. Check it out here.
Human League DON'T YOU WANT ME, Baby .... Somehow, I knew this would be easy to find through @Ismitje 's link .... https://www.pastemagazine.com/artic...orrifying-song-lyrics-dont-you-want-me-t.html Andddd that’s a wrap. I know this is a song and therefore fiction, but I’m still worried about that young lady. The three options, as I see them, are that the guy killed her, killed himself, or both. There’s just way too much instability here for a scenario that doesn’t involve death. If anyone still has newspapers saved from 1981, please check this out for me.
Just discovered it was one year ago, yesterday, that we lost one of the good ones: "Gentle on My Mind" - Glen Campbell Ok, even I don't remember him being that young.
Coulda gone with "Galveston" there. I met a guy in Portugal a long time ago who was from Galveston. I asked him if he knew "that song" about Galveston, and he was dumbfounded that anyone would have ever sung a popular song about his hometown. And when I sang "Galveston, oh! Galvestoooonnn!" he burst into laughter, unconvinced it was real. Pre-YouTube of course, so I couldn't prove it.
"Hound Dog" and "Down Home Shakedown" - Big Mama Thornton Recorded originally on August 13, 1952, in Los Angeles and released in late February 1953 - predating the Elvis Presley release of 1956. And just to show you're never to old to "Walk that dog"...
I is for the Garage Band of the Yippies, The Fugs. I Couldn't Get High Music starts at 1:07, but it's funny watching the Swedish translation trying to keep up with the hippy riffs.
"Nashville 1972" - Rodney Crowell (Close Ties - 2017) He's touring now: with him is Joe Robinson - an incredible guitarist who's worth the price of admission, himself; and Eamon McLoughlin - staff fiddler at the Grand Ole Opry.
There's bad songs from my high school years, and the there's that befuddling little number right there. But speaking of songs from my high school years, Q is for Q-Feel with "Dancing in Heaven." Don't try to see if the backup dancers are doing the same thing with their batons, it'll make your eyes hurt.
