  1. Got a feeling twenty-one is gonna be a good year Especially if you and me see it in together Got a feeling twenty-one is gonna be a good year Especially if you and me see it in together I have no reason to be over optimistic But somehow when you smile I can brave bad weather
  2. A winter's day In a deep and dark December I am alone Gazing from my window to the streets below On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow I am a rock I am an island
  3. I've never understood lawn obsessions; I just mow whatever grows there. Good thing I don't live near Hank Hill.
  4. I laughed, and then it occurred to me that this is posted on a predominately male message board that currently has a thread discussing the Daryle Lamonica trade. I love the smell of irony in the morning. ?
  5. Don't let the sun go down on me Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
  6. Yeah - they really needed subtitles.
  7. West Texas cowboys, they's all around, With liquor and money, they're loaded down. So soon after payday, know it seemed a shame; You know my uncle, he starts a friendly game, High-low jack and the winner take the hand. My uncle starts winnin'; cowboys got sore. One of them called him, and then two more, Accused him of cheatin'; Oh no, it couldn't be. I know my uncle, he's as honest as me, And I'm as honest as a Denver man can be.
  8. Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis Pumped a lot of 'pane down in New Orleans But I never saw the good side of the city 'Til I hitched a ride on a river boat queen Big wheel keep on turnin' Proud Mary keep on burnin' Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
  9. Did I forget to mention, forget to mention Memphis Home of Elvis and the ancient Greeks What do I smell? I smell home cooking It's only the river, it's only the river.
  10. You're nearly a good laugh Almost a joker With your head down in the pig bin Saying 'Keep on digging' Pig stain on your fat chin What do you hope to find Down in the pig mine? You're nearly a laugh You're nearly a laugh But you're really a cry
  11. I'd like to see some experience on that résumé first.
  12. John typically played a 4-string bass, but that Fender was mentioned here: http://www.thewho.net/whotabs/gear/bass/bass6066.html It says he didn't like it - not enough bottom end. They didn't mention that on the Fender page. ?
  13. In general, when someone has enough of a conscience to ask, "Am I a bad person?" the answer is a resounding "No." In general, that is. Your mileage may vary. ?
  14. My second guess was Elton John.
  15. It is Entwistle - he's playing a six-string bass. Looks like one of these: https://www.fender.com/articles/gear/the-bass-vi-part-guitar-part-bass-all-epic
  16. I would have used single quotes for the DL quote and double quotes to quote the article. Better yet, use the <quote> tag for the article and keep the double quotes for the DL quote. I'm not OCD, but I am a meticulous writer. ? Tom always feels the need to clarify things.
  17. The first quotation mark was quoting the article, not DL. Notice the matching quotation mark at the end.
  18. See my face in the town that's flashing by See me standing in the station in the rain See me running there beside the car I left it all behind me and I've traveled far It took me a long time to get back on the train
  19. I know a man ain't supposed to cry But these tears I can't hold inside Losin' you would end my life you see 'Cause you mean that much to me You could have told me yourself That you love someone else Instead I Heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine
  20. "Yeah, that's it - peer counseling. You see, the Sergeant - you know, my peer - offered to help me relieve the stress I've been under."
