BTS is currently touring as a three piece band - Doug’s the only guitarist. How can he pull that off?
I’m sure you’re referring to them touring with 2 or even 3 guitarists.
I wish that would happen again. I’d be there!

Mike + The Mechanics- The Living Years

Before they make me run

The house that built me


I hope you dance

I don't want to miss a thing

Seven Spanish Angels

Sing Me Back Home

Shine a Light

Time - Pink Floyd

I’m getting older.

Michael Franti and Spearhead, "See You in the Light".

My dad passed away suddenly several years ago, and it fell on me to wrap up his affairs. He was a rock for not only my sisters and I, but for most of his own brothers and sisters as well as my grandmother, he was their meal ticket as well. There were a LOT of trying times, and a lot of hard decisions that needed to be made, and this song got me through it.

See You in the Light - Michael Franti

Lyrics:

I've been traveling down this river
So many rocks pop up in my sight
I got to make some quick decisions
Should I go left or should I go right?

I pray for guidance and protection
It keeps my boat water tight
And I know if I just keep on believing
Every little thing's all gonna be alright

And when I wake up in the morning
I hope I see you in the light

And when I wake up in the morning
I hope I see you in the light

And loveliness and tenderness
And happiness and openness
And togetherness and loveliness
Yeah, yeah

The vampires gather around me
Angling to take a bite
They wanna drink my blood of courage
And try to take away my fight
But no, no, no, they can't do that
No, for one truth I learned in life
You want to scare away the vampires
You simply guide them into the light

And when I wake up in the morning
I hope I see you in the light
And when I wake up in the morning
I hope I see you in the light, yeah

In the morn, in the morning
In the morn, in the morning
In the morn, in the morning
In the morning

And when my time is done
I did some right, I did some wrong
Call my name to kingdom come
Spread my wings in flight
I hope that when my day is over
My love I see you in the light, yeah

And when I wake up in the morning
I hope I see you in the light

And when I wake up in the morning
I hope, I hope, I hope I see you

In the morn, in the morning
In the morn, in the morning
In the morn, in the morning
In the morn, in the morning
Loveliness and tenderness
And happiness and openness
And togetherness and hopefulness
And happiness, yeah, yeah

Storms - Fleetwood Mac

Willie Nelson - Till I gain control again

Great song I prefer the original Emmylou Harris - til I gain control again

She's also my 'free' card with my wife.

and i love the old timey piano of this mortal coil version.

And another great song for a long road trip.. David Sylvian - Let the Happiness In

quote:

---

I'm waiting on the empty docks
Watching the ships come in
I'm waiting for the agony to stop
Oh, let the happiness in

I'm watching as the gulls all settle down
Upon the empty vessels
The faded whites of their wedding gowns
The songs of hopeless selflessness

The cold December Sun
A cold that blisters
The hands of a working man
Wasted, ooh
