Wow, mofos- thank
you all again. Getting your heartfelt responses to these songs is just terrific!
@christine I am glad you were as moved by the Walking in Memphis song ( and the story behind it) as I was. You really summed up the underlying meaning- that we can forget, at times, the depth of wisdom that looking to our mentors and elders can give us.
Yup, I too would have my feet superglued to the floor if a door opened and Harrison walked in. Lol.
And the song you posted was absolutely beautiful. Never heard this version before, and it will stay with me long after this list is done. 'Strong' is indeed a perfect companion piece to 'Change'. Speaks to the heart.
I never heard the Knocked Down song @TONGO; and the harrowing story it tells is certainly worthy of a movie. (Although I haven't yet said 'hello' to you on your music thread, I have been enjoying your songs. Glad to have you here.)
@dadgumblah . I' m very happy that you liked the Brandy Tree, it is just a sweet and haunting song. Always makes it special when someone hears a song they never heard before, and is captured by it. And hearing that personal story about your brother and his wife having 'Memphis' as their song- just rocks my socks
Also glad you and your wife got a huge kick out of the HF song. I' m sorry she's not feeling well, and I' m wishing her the best.
I don't have another' funny ' song up my sleeve for you and your wife right now dgb, but will post an upbeat tune or two that can hopefully make you all smile - and feel like dancing.
Here's one now :
