I Can't Stop Playing This Song

I heartily agree with the desire for another DVD. The first one is the really good. There are more classics to add such as My Old School, Aja, Gaucho, Reelin in the Years, and Deacon Blues.

So many great cuts on this CD. Things I Miss the Most is a sly breakup song.

The talk
The sex
Somebody to trust
The comfy Eames chair
The good copper pans
The 54 Strat
These are the things I miss the most

How poignant. Reminds me of a rather well represented demographic on Audiogon!

Steely Dan has the rare ability to create hypnotic, catchy, rythmic grooves that invite repeated listening, listening, listening..............................................!!

As a point of reference, here's a link to the lyrics and another link to a tabbed guitar version.

To Rx8man's point, Steely Dan got that cool psychotic thing, the one you know so well.

When I grow up I want the superb cynicism and mensa level sarcasm of Donald Fagen. For 30 years I've laughed at or with his lyrics. Due to this thread I have Two Against Nature rotating.
Any favorite lyrics from the old days? When I'm down I put on Black Friday maybe it's just the absurdness that I enjoy.
