We didn't start the fire - BJ

I've listened to preachers, I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts who make their own rules

My heart is a weapon and my mind's electric.
I'll shock the world when you least expect it.
Everybody's betting on the big guy,
but don't underestimate the sting of the butterfly.

[Syko Nachoman]

Buzzards and dreadful crows, right on the tip of my nose

[wildmaven]

If I were a tardigrade I'd move out from home
Why live in the shrubbery when you could have a throne?

Avenged sevenfold.😀

Me? Lots of favourites in every genre. Some, like many of my jazz ladies and gents, sing songs by major writers which are also covered by others. So, posting the lyrics wouldn’t help.
Anyways, from the ‘ lucky dip’ of favourites who also write their own lyrics:

“I can see her lying back in her satin dress in a room where you do what you don’t confess”

The same here. My musical tastes are very eclectic. There is not just one favorite, but many.


Surprised to see Gordon Lightfoot show up here. Being that I grew up in Michigan, albeit sad, his song: The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald resonates with me.

Lake Huron rolls, Superior sings
In the rooms of her ice-water mansion
Old Michigan steams like a young man's dreams
The islands and bays are for sportsmen
And farther below, Lake Ontario
Takes in what Lake Erie can send her
And the iron boats go as the mariners all know
With the gales of November remembered

That one is real epic and a favourite. 
Apparently, he later tweaked some of the lyrics, due to some relatives  (of the cook?) being a little unhappy with something. I need to Google that.😀 But, yes, I’m a big fan. It all started with “If you could read my mind” Sorry I never got to see him at one of his concerts when he visited the UK. He’s still touring in Canada, but he’s really very frail now😢
