Sorry, Sharon, I REALLY hate the chair song. And when he sang it, he had a chair on stage and actually sang to it.

Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show rocked though. Love that one. Didn't sing Song Sung Blue or September Morn...coulda cut the dumb J. Livingston Seagull song out and done both of theh!!!

**theworm**[$] · #11 07-28-2005, 10:02 AM

I am I said is about a chair?

**lynnzop**[$] · #12 07-28-2005, 10:14 AM

I am, I said.
To no one there.
And no one hear at all,
Not even the chair.

It's a stupid song.

**theworm**[$] · #13 07-28-2005, 10:15 AM

Oh. Yeah.

**pippadaisy**[$] · #14 07-28-2005, 08:50 PM

Question is, is it dumber than MacArthur Park?

**lynnzop**[$] · #15 07-29-2005, 12:19 AM

That's a pretty tough call.

Now we're really switching topics, but there's a book out there titled "Blinded by the Lyrics" that I'm jonesing for. It allegedly has some pretty interesting stories about where some of the rock and roll lyrics came from (did you know "Rosanna" was about Rosanna Arquette? I did, but it's still mentioned in the book.)

I'd like to see if the author has any explanation for "I am, I said" or "McArthur's Park". Both of them just defy anything I can come up with.

**theworm**[$] · #16 07-29-2005, 03:46 AM

Nothing is more dumb than McArthur's Park!

Most of those songs were drug induced - no need to try to understand.

What is 25 or 6 to 4?

**mjfrombuffalo**[$] · #17 07-29-2005, 08:18 AM

twenty-five or -six to four (think time)

Hubba hubba hubba hey.

**theworm**[$] · #19 07-29-2005, 09:53 AM

Hubba hubba hubba hey makes a lot more sense than leaving a cake in the park and then crying about it.

**lynnzop**[$] · #20 07-29-2005, 10:00 AM

Not a whole lot worse than wet cake. It's raining here, maybe I'll try an experiment.

**theworm**[$] · #21 07-29-2005, 10:01 AM

Wet cake <=> Hubba Hubba

Is there really a debate here?

Sorry, Lynn, I don't really like it either. That's just the one that sticks in my head. LOL. I truthfully don't enjoy listening to his voice. Weird. I know.
It sounds like you had a good time, though, and for that I am glad.
