I love music. A lot of different types of music. But there are certain songs that stick out in my mind because of the lyrics. Like that great quote or poem that gives you new perspective. Here's mine...


YouTube - All Along The Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix (studio version)

If you have never heard this one, please take 7min. 13sec. to listen. A great rock ballad about life.


YouTube - Dio - All the Fools Sailed Away


Bring it on! Hoping to hear something new!

It might be a different two tomorrow, but these are favorites:
Warren Zevon ~ Splendid Isolation
I love all his lyrics, but that one has a beautiful melody and lyrics I especially appreciate: so sardonic, wry, vivid.
Michael Jackson in Disneyland
Don't have to share it with nobody else
Lock the gates, Goofy, take my hand
And lead me through the World of Self


YouTube - Warren Zevon performs "Splendid Isolation"
The Pogues ~ Thousands Are Sailing
The island it is silent now
But the ghosts still haunt the waves
And the torch lights up a famished man
Who fortune could not save
Did you work upon the railroad
Did you rid the streets of crime
Were your dollars from the white house
Were they from the five and dime


YouTube - The Pogues - Thousands Are Sailing

The concept of loving has ultimate might
The power of peace and truth...


YouTube - Michael Nesmith - Harmony Constant

You wander down the lane and far away...
Leaving me a song that will not die


YouTube - Stardust - Nat "King" Cole
