Right at the start, I want to assure the reader that I DON'T get plowed anymore; these are simply memories of days (and nights) when I did.
In addition to drinking, I played the jukebox a lot, and over the years, I've compiled a list of songs that really affect me when in my cups...some make me sad, some affect me in other ways.
INPO, they are....
TEARS IN HEAVEN- Eric Clapton. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngpZaECKaBM
No comment needed.
ONE SWEET DAY- Mariah Carey / Boyz 2 Men. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXxRyNvTPr8
I see so many faces, hear so many voices.
BAG LADY- Todd Rundgren. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPVV34CecEw&p=7F2D1ED35F5B453D&playnext=1&index=39
Not as well known, but wrenching.
HELL IS FOR CHILDREN- Pat Benatar. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxYsi5Y-xOQ
This one makes me angry...very angry, indeed.
THE LAST SONG- Elton John. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXV_CTFPqCc
Forget the particulars...he's somebody's kid.
FOREVER YOUNG- Rod Stewart. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGEe_zpddNI
Not sure why....
I AM YOUR CHILD- Barry Manilow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQjwODzPOxo
I know why....
I'M ALREADY THERE- Lonestar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jm5gfuT9Z4
This is what it's all about, group.
I HOPE YOU DANCE- Lee Ann Womack http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RV-Z1YwaOiw
Just beautiful.
SHAPES OF THINGS TO COME- Max Frost and the Troopers
Check out the film, "WILD IN THE STREETS".
WILDFIRE- Michael Murphey. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIkpqdjU-qo
Again, not sure why.
DON'T LET IT SHOW- Alan Parsons Project. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mY-zdEJkNU
I've lived both sides of this song.
Just something to ponder; aren't you glad you're NOT someone who isn't moved by music?
