    Love this list...but what are the last two quotes from?
  2. Parachute woman, land on me tonight Parachute woman, land on me tonight Well, I'll break big in New Orleans and I'll overspill in Caroline Parachute woman, join me for a ride Parachute woman, join me for a ride I'll make my blow in Dallas and get hot again in half the time Parachute woman, will you blow me out? Parachute woman, will you blow me out? My heavy throbber's itchin' just to lay a solo rhythm down
  3. All very nicely put, especially last point... But embracing the situation Is our only chance to be free
  4. Butternut Squash Soup and then....

    Neil Young-like guitar eruptions. Lyrics. Potent, slightly frightening, opener to great album. It's one of my favorites. Wait, there'll all my favorites!
  6. How many sexual orientations are there these days?
  7. Lately, songs that begin with a vowel...
  8. Lord, there goes Johnny Appleseed, he might pass by, in the hour of need, there's a lot of souls...ain't drinking from no well, locked in a factory, Hey look there goes, hey look there goes, if you're after getting the honey, then you don't go killing all the bees, Lord, there goes, Martin Luther King, notice how the door closes when the chimes of freedom ring? I hear what you're saying I hear what he's saying If you're after getting the honey, then don't go killing all the bees, that's what the people are saying and we know every road... go! go! That's what the people are saying there ain't n

    wow

    I love the ending....and the beginning....and the middle, too! I guess all this history is just a mystery to me. Jeff sounds so innocent on this one, just beginning to cope with rock stardom, or something like that.
  10. Take me to the station And put me on a train I've got no expectations To pass through here again Once I was a rich man and Now I am so poor But never in my sweet short life Have I felt like this before You heart is like a diamond You throw your pearls at swine And as I watch you leaving me You pack my peace of mind Our love was like the water That splashes on a stone Our love is like our music Its here, and then its gone So take me to the airport And put me on a plane I got no expectations To pass through here again
  11. Springsteen in 76??!!! Un-fucking-believable! What a show that must have been. I'm sure you saw him many times since then, no? I started in 78 and continued seeing shows into the 90s, including once in Rotterdam, Germany in 1985. I've always been partial to the early albums... Princess cards she sends me with her regards barroom eyes shine vacancy, to see her you gotta look hard Wounded deep in battle, I stand stuffed like some soldier undaunted To her Cheshire smile. I'll stand on file, she's all I ever wanted. But you let your blue walls get in the way of these facts honey, get you
  12. Don't get me started on Bruce...though I will say first show I saw was 1978 at the Fabulous Forum in Los Angeles. Lots of friends tied in with Bruce experience before Wilco. When the night's quiet and you don't care anymore, And your eyes are tired and there's someone at your door And you realize you wanna let go And the weak lies and the cold walls you embrace Eat at your insides and leave you face to face with Streets of fire I'm wandering, a loser down these tracks I'm dying, but girl I can't go back 'Cause in the darkness I hear somebody call my name And when you realize how they t
  13. Hey bus driver keep the change, Bless your children, give them names, Don
  14. I had the carburetor cleaned and checked with her line blown out she's hummin' like a turbojet Propped her up in the backyard on concrete blocks for a new clutch plate and a new set of shocks Took her down to the carwash check the plugs and points I'm goin' out tonight I'm gonna rock that joint Early north Jersey industrial skyline I'm a all set cobra jet creepin' through the nighttime Gotta find a gas station gotta find a payphone this turnpike sure is spooky at night when you're all alone Gotta hit the gas 'cause I'm runnin' late, this New Jersey n the mornin' like a lunar landscape The
  15. Fucking great song. It's a Springsteen jamboree...
  16. It's time for.... MOBY DICK! Really.
  17. I had a feeling.... that one was always one of my favorites. This one too: You get up every morning at the sound of the bell You get to work late and the boss man's giving you hell Till you're out on a midnight run Losing your heart to a beautiful one And it feels right as you lock up the house Turn out the lights and step out into the night And the world is busting at its seams And you're just a prisoner of your dreams Holding on for your life `cause you work all day To blow `em away in the night The rat traps filled with soul crusaders The circuits lined and jammed with chromed invad
  18. Let's all pick a time to listen to it together and have running commentary throughout! That would be fun.
  19. I'm riding down Kingsley, figuring I'll get a drink Turn the radio up loud, so I don't have to think, I take her to the floor, looking for a moment when the world seems right, And I tear into the guts, of something in the night. You're born with nothing, and better off that way, Soon as you've got something they send someone to try and take it away, You can ride this road 'till dawn, without another human being in sight, Just kids wasted on something in the night. Nothing is forgotten or forgiven, when it's your last time around, I got stuff running 'round my head That I just can't live do
  20. World service bulletin - from the nightshift D.J., To all wavebands on earth - Reconnoitre on the killahertz, This tune is going out to Marconi, To all corners of the globe, There is no hut in the Serengeti, Where my wavelengths do not probe, An' if a rocket went to Saturn... We sure a D.J. is on board, For some anti-gravity mixing, With two dub plates of U-Roy... Throwdown!Stray Cat strut in Bulawayo, Buddy Rich in Burundi, Quadraphenia in Armenia, Armenia City of the sky, Big Youth booming in Djkarta, Nina Simone over Sierra Leone... Wild sound of Joujouka in Nevada... Everywhere, everywhere
  21. Don't really know you but I will make a prediction: your life will change. Congrats and happy future!!
  22. Today, it's all the songs that begin with S.
