What's your favorite lyric from a song?

@larsman 

Thanks for that. It's Mike's funeral this Wednesday.

No one is truly alone when it comes to bereavement, but it is mostly a solitary experience. I hope you found a way through it.

 

Anyway I did try piano myself for a while but my musical memory could barely remember where middle C was.

I soon gave up after hearing my sister practice. Somehow without any coaching she was soon playing recognisable tunes!

She soon gave it up though, as she wanted to play guitar and be in a band.

Alas for her she didn't have as much luck there.

People forget, but guitar can be tough on the fingers.

Here's a lyric that's been coming to mind recently. I kind of underappreciated it previously.

 

Ride on fine white stallion

Take me anywhere

Ride on fine white stallion

Where you me take I don't care 

 

Ride on fine white stallion

I'd go anywhere with you

Take me to a new world with new things to find

Help me leave the old world behind.

(Fine White Stallion - Mike Hazelwood)

 

 

A prune is not a vegetable.

A cabbage is a vegetable.

"Well, I got this guitar, and I learned how to make it talk
And my car’s out back, if you’re ready to take that long walk
From your front porch to my front seat
The door’s open but the ride, it ain’t free"

 

Sometimes, no matter how carefully you plan things, you just have to make an instant decision.

It could be a life changing decision.

Two degrees in be-bop. A Phd in swing. He's the master of rhythm. He's the rock 'n roll king.     -Lowell George
