Ain't no Sunshine

Sunshine.

Ain't no...that is.

Into the mystic

Into the Mystic

because Van IS the Man

Van IS the man, but I never would have chosen that song to show it.

well....we WERE born before the Sun.....


which song would you have selected to represent the little drunken Mc?

The field!

All the Young Dudes

- or -

The Boxer

The Boxer

Dudes

I'm going to be at the gym when Whole Lotta Love comes up again. Consider this my mail in vote.

Can't do that, wouldn't be prudent... but Sundays are light sometimes so maybe the vote won't be up when you get back.

Plus I should really concentrate on other things too so maybe I won't be around to tally the vote in a timely fashion

All The Young Dudes.

Even though I like S&G very much I like Bowie more plus we need something of another genre and that song is one of the best of all time too.

Interesting factoid about the Boxer. It took over 100 hours to record. :eek:

Teh boxer.

My friend played Into the Mystic on a boombox at his mother's funeral just a few months after she spoke at my wedding. Makes me cry....

yeah , When people play songs at funerals it is a great way to mess up a song forever. Same with Mclaughlin's Angel song played at my aunts funeral. I just can't listen to it without it provoking strong sad emotions.


This reminded me.
I have decided on Walk To The Paradise garden for my moms funeral when the time comes.
I didn't go looking. I heard it one day and just knew I wanted that one. I don't know if that is sick or morbid to plan but it has to happen at sometime. I just don't see how she can go on like this for very long. The song inspires all of the peace I hope is there waiting for her when she does go. I don't want her to of course. She is suffering. I don't know how long people can suffer but I just can't see very far out in the future for her.

I'm sorry...what a downer :( That just spilled out.
