Wake up, a little Suzie, wake up!!
“The Love Song of J.Alfred Prufrock.
I cannot say I am well versed enough to understand all poetry. There is a certain beauty to it though.”
Thank you for leading to that poem.
It is something you can read through the years and hear other songs in different seasons.
I always thought it was "take her out for a mil," meaning a million.
Geez, what a crashing bore Puritan Nancy Boy you must have been. I’m sure you’re a barrel of monkeys now, though.
That was the days, though, where all my friends were into stuff like Cream and FogHat, while I was just getting over my Herb Alpert days.
Heck, I’m 64 now and played live at Studio Seven across from Starbucks headquarters a few years ago. Death Metal. :)
The Dion ones are slightly annoying, but Lightning Strikes is just Eww all the way through.
“And I don’t know what church Norman Greenbaum attended, if any...”
Well, probably none because he was Jewish. The story goes that he just wanted to write a rock song inspired by Christian gospel music, even though he wasn’t actually a Christian.
That was the year that Jesus Christ became a “Superstar”, so people were jumping on the bandwagon.
