Thyrsis Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Before the Deluge, Jackson Browne. The lyrics are amazing so here is the whole song. Even better, find the song and listen to it! Some of them were dreamers And some of them were fools Who were making plans and thinking of the future With the energy of the innocent They were gathering the tools They would need to make their journey back to nature While the sand slipped through the opening And their hands reached for the golden ring With their hearts they turned to each other's heart for refuge In the troubled years that came before the deluge Some of them knew pleasure And some of them knew pain And for some of them it was only the moment that mattered And on the brave and crazy wings of youth They went flying around in the rain And their feathers, once so fine, grew torn and tattered And in the end they traded their tired wings For the resignation that living brings And exchanged love's bright and fragile glow For the glitter and the rouge And in the moment they were swept before the deluge Now let the music keep our spirits high And let the buildings keep our children dry Let creation reveal its secrets by and by By and by... When the light that's lost within us reaches the sky Some of them were angry At the way the earth was abused By the men who learned how to forge her beauty into power And they struggled to protect her from them Only to be confused By the magnitude of her fury in the final hour And when the sand was gone and the time arrived In the naked dawn only a few survived And in attempts to understand a thing so simple and so huge Believed that they were meant to live after the deluge Now let the music keep our spirits high And let the buildings keep our children dry Let creation reveal its secrets by and by By and by...

Futterwithtrees Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 "Save me" by Aimee Mann. Soundtrack from the movie Magnolia. A must and the best version of the song. Well worth a listen with a packet of razor blades handy 😃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betty LaRue Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 14 hours ago, MDM said: That has got to be one of the saddest songs ever written. Hank Williams expressed such deep universal emotion in his lyrics and his voice. It brings tears to my eyes when I listen to it. He really had a way with words. One of my favorite songs, but yes, very sad. I used to have a voice that could sing it decently. We had a small family quartet, my brother-in-law had a beautiful mellow country voice and played the guitar. We performed around town by request. Two nights ago, the song fit my mood. My sister and I could do a credible duet & harmony to “Apartment #9”. Hank Williams was a tortured soul with addictions, and he wrote songs from those experiences and feelings. But yet today, he is revered by other C&W singers, who write songs including Hank’s name, if not about him. This brings back memories when my family and my sister’s family and our mother would go camping at a popular lake the first week of August every year. As the sun begin to set, we’d gather around, Ike would get out his guitar and we’d sing. Next thing, we’d look around and people from other campsites were sitting in their lawn chairs they had carried to our camp, along with a cold beer or soda, listening. My mother had a good, old-time voice who could yodel, and she loved to sing Jimmy Roger’s songs, among others of that type. People begged her (she was very shy) to sing “Mule Skinner Blues” and “Milk Cow Blues”. When I was a teen, my mother and I would sing and harmonize as we washed up the evening dishes. Every day. Always Country. Betty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
