Some of you I've noticed note a great line from some songs....
For me, one of the best was in Dylan's "Chimes of Freedom"..I flipped when I heard it...never can get it out of my head...
"Starry eyed and laughing as I recall when were caught
Trapped by no track of hours for they hang suspended"....
That and the lyrics by Reed in the VU..Sweet Jane here...
"Standing on the corner
Suitcase in my hand
Jack's in his corset,Jane's in her vest
Me, honey, I'm in a rock'n'roll band
Riding in a Stutz bearcat,jim
Those were different times
They studied rules of verse
And those ladies they just rolled their eyes"
man I think this is just one of the best in all of rock when it's linked with his music......

Nah...great stuff, stevieg.
How about--
Once upon a time you dressed so fine
Threw the bums a dime in your prime,
didn't you?
...the whole song is lyric genius!
and of course my quote at the bottom another great lyric!

You have the world at your fingertips
No one can make it better than you
You have the world at your fingertips
But see what you've done to the rain & the sun
So many changes have all just begun, to reap
I know you're asleep.......wake!
Spirit "Twelve Dreams..." ("Prelude-Nothing to Hide")
 Ya, an amazing album! Spirit's first four albums have always
been on my "favorites" shelf--starting with the first LP, released in "67
( I think Randy California was just 16 on that one?!) |

Well the night I was born,
Lord, I swear the moon turned a fire red
Well my poor mother cried out "Lord, the gypsy was right!"
And I seen her fell down right dead.

You sure you want to be with me
I've nothing to give
Wwon't lie and say this lovin's best
Leave us in emotional peace
Take a walk, taste the rest
No, take a rest
I see you digging a hole in your neighborhood
You're crazy but you're lazy
No need to live in a lean-to
Your troubles must be seen to seen to
Money like it's paper with faces i remember
I drink on a daily basis
Though it seldom cools my temper
It never cools my temper
Walking through the suburbs though not exactly lovers
You're a couple, 'specially when your body's doubled
Duplicate, then you wait for the next kuwait
And I'll dance with you in Vienna,
I'll be wearing a river's disguise.
The hyacinth wild on my shoulder
my mouth on the dew of your thighs.
And I'll bury my soul in a scrapbook,
with the photographs there and the moss.
And I'll yield to the flood of your beauty,
my cheap violin and my cross.
And you'll carry me down on your dancing
to the pools that you lift on your wrist --
O my love, O my love
Take this waltz, take this waltz,
it's yours now. It's all that there is.
tricky and cohen

Thank you Old Man, for bring that one up! I sang that on stage once, forgot all about it. I'll have to find that album for sure. Didn't know it went back to Peter Green, though. Used to hear it on the radio in Cleveland years ago. Cool! |

This is my favourite -
Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac - Oh Well (part one)
I can't help about the shape I'm in,
I can't sing I ain't pretty and my legs are thin,
But don't ask me what I think of you,
I might not give the answer that you want me to.........Oh well!
Now when I talked to god I knew he'd understand,
He said stick by me and I'll be your guiding hand,
But don't ask me what I think of you,
I might not give the answer that you want me to........Oh well! |

WOW!! This was a hard one..nearly went with natures way by Spirit, and loads of others...but after loads of soul searching (l.o.l).......
This is the time of life
That i am living
And i,ll face each day with a smile...

May you never lay your head down
Without a hand to hold
May you never make your bed out in the cold
May you never lose your temper
If you get hit in a bar _room fight
May you never lose your woman overnight

Through the rhythm of darkened time
Painted black by knowledge crime
And repetition's pointless mime
Instilling values the sick define
It weaves the fabric that keeps you blind
And ties your hands and coats your mind
But on my stilts I'm above the slime
Come on up if you can make the climb
But who am I?
Who am I?
Who am I?
--from "Thru The Rhythm"

with spike right through my head.
But it's alright now
in fact it's a gas..." |

Brave dreams
That are kindled from ashes
Rise out over all the battle below
Spread wings over all that he passes
So his life can stay immortal to his country
All the shades of green that fall beneath this tree
So let the winds of change
That rearrange the country
Let it also sow a seed of memory
- Terry Reid (Seed of Memory)
