What Are You Listening To?

Jimmy Webb:  "Galveston"

As I've often said, "Nobody sings a song like the songwriter."

Jim Steinman:  "Rock & Roll Dreams Come Through"

You can't run away forever
But there's nothing wrong with getting a good head start
You want to shut out the night, you want to shut down the sun
You want to shut away the pieces of a broken heart

Think of how we'd lay down together
We'd be listening to the radio so loud and so strong
Every golden nugget coming like a gift of the gods
Someone must have blessed us when he gave us those songs

Chorus 1:
I treasure your love, I never want to lose it
You've been through the fires of hell
And I know you've got the ashes to prove it
I treasure your love, I want to show you how to use it
You've been through a lot of pain in the dirt
And I know you've got the scars to prove it

Remember everything that I told you, and I'm telling you again that it's true
When you're alone and afraid, and you're completely amazed
To find there's nothing anybody can do
Keep on believing, and you'll discover baby
Chorus 2:
There's always something magic, there's always something new
And when you really really need it the most
That's when rock and roll dreams come through
The beat is yours forever, the beat is always new
And when you really really need it the most
That's when rock and roll dreams come through for you
(chorus 1)
Remember everything that I told you, and I'm telling you again that it's true
You're never alone cause you can put on the phones
And let the drummer tell your heart what to do
Keep on believing, and you'll discover baby

Jeff Tweedy:  "A Simple Twist Of Fate"

Man, Tweedy sounds just like Ian Hunter on this song.

Jason & The Scorchers:  "Absolutely Sweet Marie"

Another great Dylan cover; maybe the first great Cowpunk song.

<<< I lurrrve anime! Couldn't find exactly what I wanted yet.

Pretty good cover of a Bruce Robison song.
