See, that's what friendship's all about, ,your buddies stand by you even when you make an *** out of yourself. Thankfully, I have one friend, and he has no friends, lol.

Oh, c'mon, Vande, this song is soo tired, I'm about to fall asleep

Well Charlie certainly looked like he would agree with you, but Mick seemed to be enjoying himself and he's the boss. It hit number 1 in the US (Billboard). There's actually a Bakersfield (CA) style of country music.

Whatever you say, it's better than listening to Taylor Swift.

I always think my problems are so unconquerable. But there's people out there dealing with issues that make mine seem a joke. I feel for Steve, I can't imagine the pain he's had to go through.

Stevie Winwood embarrassed himself at his r&r hall of fame, inaugural, but I still love him

Ah! That reminds me. Robert Plant is going to be playing at the blues festival in town real soon.

I think I'll buy a ticket or two.

ps. I'm really glad I never saw these videos when I was listening to this music back in the 80's. It would have ruined the music. What on Earth kind of drugs were people on back then?

I've been checking out favorites recommended by my 15 year old nephew, who is almost certainly going to be a successful performer himself. The kid can seriously rock a guitar now and has been highly driven since he about six years old. His first year in high school they made him lead guitar for the seniors in the school band! Just last week he was approached by a booking agent who wants to start booking his band for professional events.

So, here's one of his favorites.

Your fro? I was referring to the lead singer in the video.

It always cracks me up with I see the big fros, the huge bell bottom pants, or better yet, polyester Angel Flights, the disco shoes...

I happened to see a few clips from Soul Train recently, from the early 70s, and it was funny! Those brothers had some serious fros back then!

Too nostalgic and classic

This song happened a few months later. It was my first exploration into "carnal knowledge." I used to be a hot property back then because I was one of the top roller skaters and surfers in ventura county. So this girl brings her friend over to my house, and, bizzarly, I was drinking a cup of milk.

I asked her if she wanted a drink, and she said, no, she didn't like milk. And I thought what?! Who doesn't like milk? I was about to kick her out of my house, really. I mean, we were young. But then she climbed on me unexpectedly. And I remember this song was on.

Edit: I don't remember her name, sadly.

ADELE: SET FIRE TO THE RAIN

Sorry for all the posts here, but this a fun thread and no one else is talking. And I always start getting so sentimental when the barometer hits 100 and I feel like I'm going to pass out every second. I remember this song from the summer of '81 (or 80, circa). My dad sent me to my grandma's in Long Island New York for the summer. My first crush had just dumped me in California shortly before, and I cried my eyes out all summer to this song

Whether you're talking about millibars or inches, a barometric pressure of 100 is either fatally low or fatally high, so "sentimental" might not be the feeling you would get. Maybe you meant "thermometer" on the unscientific Fahrenheit scale. Anyway, I'm probably older than you and while I like the "classics", how about posting some current stuff once in a while? This thread is overdosing on nostalgia. There are some good artists out there, such as Adele (see above).

EDIT: OK, maybe you're talking about kPa, and 100 kPa=1000 mb which is a bit low. Most weather barometers are calibrated in inches of mercury (US household) or millibars.

The Vulcan Science Directorate has determined that, although there may still be uncertainty which of their songs is "the best", it would not even be self-consistent to assume that the very best song could be from anyone else than Led Zeppelin.

Fair enough, Vande. I was actually trying to do a clever mix-measure trick there with the barometer-temperature reference, but I should have asterisked it, admittedly. Here's my currently favorite contemporary pop hit that plays on "heavy rotation" on 92.5 Seattle along with Adele and co.
