To each his or her own man. I couldn't stand Wham, but when I heard Freedom, and seen the video from George Michael I loved it. Denver had talent!
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

See, It all started with Denver, now you like a Wham/George Michael song....This can't be good! Immediately listen to all of the records of Merle Haggard, then go drink a fifth of Wild Turkey, and get in a fistfight. You might can still pull out of it, Lol.

Country Roads is still a fairly relevant today. I would say most people my age know it.
I gotta be in the right mood for Denver, Neil Young, and McLean etc. But I will take Marshall Tucker Band, Allman Brothers, and Grateful Dead any day.

Seriously? That's it. Right there. No need to go any further. No better lyrics for me anywhere. Every night with Zim is like a night in the forest. That's where I belong. That's it. No better lyrics for me anywhere!

Even the greatest pilots can't overcome some mechanical difficulties he landed talked to the refueling crew but never got refueled and took off again so excited about how the new plane flew , ran out of fuel and they believe given the location of the aux fuel lever he could not have reached it while belted in.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

No better lyrics for me anywhere! Indeed, those lyrics are most beautiful ! I agree , Patrice . The kind of people we are, we live life to the full, work hard, feel deeply in the details . For myself, a most loved song that rings into my heart , is from Alison Krauss and John Waite, and the exquisite , beautiful way it was presented to me . Once in a lifetime ....to grasp in deepest reverence and appreciation . Life is good .
