I never got on this thread before. I can barely keep up with the ones I'm on, and how would I decide how many to play, which ones, and who would get left out? And I knew later, when I couldn't edit, I would regret some choices. Problem solved. Went out tonight. Took one CD I bought my mom a couple of Christmases ago. ShBoom. I was bored with my music. For a minute Got to the juke joint, headed straight to the nickelodean. Put in $7.00. Not thinking about this thread. This is what I played in order. One Way Out-Allman Bros Maybellene-Chuck Livin in the USA-Chuck My Maria-B&D-didn't have BJ Subterranean Homesick Blues-Dylan Smokin-Boston I'm not the one-Da Cars Woodstock-CSN Under Pressure-Freddie & Bowie Cover of the Rolling Stone-Dr. Hook Stuck in the Middle-JR & Stealer's Wheel Rock of Ages-Def Leppard Jesus is Just Alright-Doobies-I usually play Taking it to the Streets didn't So Far Away-Dire Straits Young Blood-Bad Co. Left a few for sissy. She played. Whiskey River-who else Into the Mystic-Van Morrison Superstition-Little Stevie Let's Stay-Al Green Whipping Post-Allman Bros Takin it to the Streets-Doobies In the City-Joe Walsh Got to get you into-EWF At Last-Etta Dancing Machine-Michael Don't let me be lonely-JT Crosstown Traffic-Hendrix Whatever gets you through-Lennon & Elton
I just played this. Twice! I have a dog and a chimp. Check out my profile. Put it on the 70s thread too, so more people might see it There are some really good pictures with the music!!! And a funny bit after the song is over. YouTube - Monkey Man
I can't rep you, like most people. NICE Selection! Cristopher Cross and Robert John were especially nice. Made me think of a whole bunch more that could fit into the theme.
The one that stands out for me, for some reason, is I was thinking Terry Jacks' "Seasons in the Sun," would fit in nicely with your collection.
This is a grouping of Boston, with several taken from "The Third Stage," as I really like that CD and the individual stories the songs tell as well as the story the CD tells overall.
In addition to the usual YouTube link, I selected some meaningful lyrics, to me, from each song.
Can'tcha You Say
"Can'tcha say you believe in me?
Can'tcha say you believe in me?
You know that where there's a will there's a way.
Can'tcha say you believe in me?
Can't you see what it means to me?
Don't leave me alone tonight,
'Cause I still love you."
"We've had our time apart
And I knew right from the start
I could never change
The way I feel about you baby.
We can sit here all night long
And separate the right from the wrong
But love won't wait."
"You know I'm just livin' for you
And I, I never needed to lie
Can't you see I believe in my heart when I'm saying
It's love that you see
You're just the one for me
I'm praying
Maybe I'm dreaming, don't want to wake up now
Baby, I love you, I always knew it somehow
Happened so easy, don't need to think it through
It's not so amazing
Been going so crazy for you"
"And I feel like today's the day
I'm lookin' for the words to say
Do you wanna be free, are you ready for me
To feel this way
I don't wanna lose you
So, it may be too soon, I know
The feeling takes so long to grow
If I tell you today will you turn me away
And let me go?
I don't wanna lose you"
"The will to give and not receive
The strength to say what you believe
The heart to feel what others feel inside
To see what they can see"
"A man is somethin' that's real
It's not what you are
It's what you can feel
It can't be too late
To look through the hate and see
I know that's what a man can be"
-Tom Schulz

Great Boston tunes there thanks. I am a big fan of them.
And the weather was much improved today, thank you, thank you very much.
It's not supposed to last...sigh.... so will enjoy it while it's here.
Hope all of you stuck in the heat can cool off.
