The only reason I remember this I literally just watched this a couple days ago.
Other than that I never would have remembered it.

another one

It was a teenage wedding, and the old folks wished them well
You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoiselle
And now the young monsieur and madame have rung the chapel bell

I know this song but can't place it.
I know it's an older song.

I loved that song when it first came out. I was eight years old.

Looking back, I think that was the very first sign of trouble. I’m pretty sure eight year-olds aren’t supposed to like a song like that.

reply

[–] godewey (16472) 7 years ago

The signs were all there weren't they.
If only they'd noticed!

Same with me though.
Not many of us that age listening to that music.

Whiskey vs Wine

Rum vs Vodka

Beer vs Cider

reply

[–] godewey (16472) 7 years ago

Whisky by a lot
Beer by a lot

I drink more vodka but I may like rum much better. Hmmmmm....
I'll say vodka with a flaming dr. pepper chaser!

100% on that quiz

You have been 'studying'🍻
Nicely done

reply

[–] godewey (16472) 7 years ago

I study almost every day.

I really should be tenured by now.

reply

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78628) 7 years ago

Tenured..?

YOU are the professor my man...
You give other people tenure at this point!

reply

[–] godewey (16472) 7 years ago

School's out and tenured.

I think inadvertently we just brought two threads together.
We're that good.
My mind was achin and we are shakin it all night long.

reply

[–] TexasJack (12516) 7 years ago

Beer + cider = Snakebite. Not bad at all.

I shudder to think of combining the others.

It didn't take you long to blow up the place, did it?

reply

[–] godewey (16472) 7 years ago

With crazy friends like you guys around does it ever take us much effort.
Alcohol may be a contributing factor.
Except for hownos. He's crazy enough on his own!

With a baby in her hand
Under an old street light
Near a garbage can

Your country just bowed it's head in shame.

Off on your way
Hit the open road
There is magic at your fingers
For the spirit ever lingers
Undemanding contact
In your happy solitude

Would Tom Sawyer know?

I am not a big Rush fan. I know I should be drawn and quartered

Just the music in general or the sound?

reply

[–] [deleted] 7 years ago

It's a bit heavy for my liking. I am way too mainstream.

reply

[–] godewey (16472) 7 years ago

Fair enough.
At that time it something different.
Sign of the times to come.

Do you like blues or alt blues?

reply

[–] [deleted] 7 years ago

a classic

Friday evening
Sunday in the afternoon
What have you got to lose?

Tuesday morning
Please be gone I'm tired of you
What have you got to lose?

It is a classic.

Judy Blue Eyes.

After Neil right?

[–] [deleted] 7 years ago

Yes - Crosby, Stills and Nash

reply

[–] [deleted] 7 years ago

on more Neil - should be easy

The king is gone
but he's not forgotten
This is the story
of a Johnny Rotten
It's better to burn out
than it is to rust
The king is gone
but he's not forgotten.

Try this one
I woke up this morning with the sundown shining in
I found my mind in a brown paper bag within
I tripped on a cloud and fell-a eight miles high
I tore my mind on a jagged sky

I know you got it.
Try this before the easy lyrics.

I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in
I watched myself crawling out as I was a-crawling in
I got up so tight I couldn't unwind
I saw so much I broke my mind
I..............

I have his greatest hits CD and was playing it in the car just a few days ago. The Condition song by Kenny Rogers. The lyrics are very dark and I always wondered if there was some hidden meaning.

reply

[–] godewey (16472) 7 years ago

Depends on who you believe.

I've heard it's about an LSD trip which makes sense given the lyrics and it's history.
Others say it's an anti drug song. To show the dangers of drug use.

Either way it's an awesome song.
