It's interesting that Cash took out the dissonances from the chords in the verse. Still a good cover.

The original:

It's interesting that Cash took out the dissonances from the chords in the verse. Still a good cover.

Hell, I like the Cash version a lot better than the NIN version. And speaking of good Cash covers, this one keeps coming on Pandora for me... one of those good songs to kill yourself to, or something along those lines.

Spoiler:

Early one morning
With time to kill
I borrowed Jebb's rifle
And sat on a hill
I saw a lone rider
Crossing the plain
I drew a bead on him
To practice my aim

My brother's rifle
Went off in my hand
A shot rang out
Across the land
The horse, he kept running
The rider was dead
I hung my head
I hung my head

I set off running
To wake from the dream
My brother's rifle
Went into the sheen
I kept on running
Into the south lands
That's where they found me
My head and my hands

The sheriff he asked me
Why had I run
And then it came to me
Just what I had done
And all for no reason
Just one piece of lead
I hung my head
I hung my head

Here in the court house
The whole town was there
I see the judge
High up in the chair
Explain to the court room
What went through you mind
And we'll ask the jury
What verdict they find

I felt the power
Of death over life
I orphaned his children
I widowed his wife
I begged their forgiveness
I wish I was dead
I hung my head
I hung my head

I hung my head
I hung my head

Early one morning
With time to kill
I see the gallows
Up on a hill
And out in the distance
A trick of the brain
I see a lone rider
Crossing the plain

And he'd come to fetch me
To see what they'd done
And we'd ride together
To kingdom come
I prayed for god's mercy
For soon I'd be dead
I hung my head
I hung my head

I hung my head
I hung my head

I prefer the Cash version, it just seems to carry more weight with his voice, his style and his age - it was also something of an epitaph.

[Draco]

I really like this song for some reason, plus the girl is so strange/quirky I love it



@Aimless, apparently she's from Sweden, are you a fan?

[Aimless]

I like her music, I just rarely listen to it. Some of my friends are very devoted fans I really like Swedish music as a whole but don't often seek it out of my own volition.



Back to basics today:

[Draco]

^^She was in my city a week ago for some music festival, I only found out on the day it was on though
Another Swedish group that I really like is The Knife love their music, they're so awesome and the music clips are cool.

I particularly like this one, it's so random:

Eilen Jewell Fucked up name, but hella chill with a bit of blues and a lot of country, but not the cheesy or the whiny kind. The good kind. The heartfelt kind. Good stories

OMG The Midnight Special! No wonder Steely Dan turned into a studio band, huh.

Between for the longing for love and the struggle for legal tender...

....he knows that all his dreams begin and end there.

The Pretender.

....for true love, coulda been a contender.

Say a prayer for The Pretender....



Great lyrics, timeless.

More Jackson Browne great stuff:



Looking back at the years gone by
like so many summer fields....

I don't know where I'm running now,
I'm just running on empty
running blind.

Gotta do what you can just to keep your love alive,
Trying not to confuse it with what you do to survive....

Running on empty
Running blind
Running into the sun but I'm running behind.

People need some reason to believe....

Look around for the friends that I used to turn to
to pull me through
looking into their eyes
I see them running, too....

Running on empty, running blind
running into the sun
but running behind.....

Ya know I don't even know what I'm hoping to find,
running blind,
running into the sun,
but I'm running behind....

[GGT]

And, of course, Jackson Browne links back to Neil Young. Young Men singing about Old Men. So much in common, despite the years gone by:

[GGT]

I was thinking that maybe I'd get a maid,
find a place nearby for her to stay.
Just someone to keep my house clean,
fix my meals and go away.

A maid,
A man needs a maid.

It's hard to make that change
when Life and Love turn strange.....

To Live a Love
Ya gotta Give a Love.
To Give a Love
Ya gotta be part of...


When will I see you again?

More of 70's music, pretty much ten times better than anything made now:

Notice, at the beginning, who's accompanying her.



I hear her call sweet dreams
but I forget how to dream....

My friends from college, they're all married now.
They have their houses and their lawns.
They have their silent moods,
tearful nights, angry dawns.

Their children hate them for the things they love,
they hate themselves for what the are.
And yet they drink, they laugh,
close the wounds, hide the scars.

But you say it's time we moved in together,
and raised a family on our own, you and me.
Well that's the way I've always heard it should be....

You want to marry me?
We'll marry.

....
