A Song Worth Remembering
Stupid radio. What in the name of all that's good and righteous gets into the heads of some program directors? What causes them to continue airing songs like Let Me Clear My Throat and What's Up? and Cotton-Eyed Joe in 2008?? Haven't we, as a species, come further than that by now?
I mean, damn!
But now and then a random radio station will miraculously broadcast a great older song that you've long forgotten. Like this one:
It's under my skin but out of my hands.
I'll tear it apart, but I won't understand.
I will not accept the greatness of man.
That's one of my all time favorite passages from the annals of pop lyrics. It honestly gives me chills. At the risk of coming off like a total Nancy-boy, that's the truth. It gives me chills.
