Let's hear 'em. A Better Place To Be is pretty good, it just rolled through on the itunes. Here comes Old College Avenue. |

You know Pete, I can't pick a favorite. If you're interested, you might care to check out "Harry Chapin Greatest Stories Live". An utterly fantastic album, and one of my favorites. A Better Place To Be is a grand song. My life is well represented by Taxi and Circle - my life is filled with way too many coincidences. |

My wife's aunt was married to Harry's brother Jim, he passed a few years back I met Tom Chapin a few years back, he does Children's songs. Wife's favorite song is Flowers Are Red I like Sniper |

Gotta wonder how many people around here even know who Harry Chapin is. I'm 33 and know very few people my age or younger that know anything but the remake of Cat's in the Cradle. I remember a few years ago a guy tellin me about this new singer that just came out and how great he was....and then put in a Santana CD. Was swappin some vinyl a while back with a buddy, his daughter said "cool look at the big CD's" Wonder what the average age around here is. |

We got your point in your first post:
How many more times are you gonna state it? |
meet me in AZ in a couple of weeks time. I'll bring you a knuckle sandwich |
Were you even alive when Harry was playing? From reading your posts, I have my doubts... |
Gee whiz, I am sorry. Thanks for helping, Grandma. |
Ths is exactly the kind of humorless suction-ass post you would expect in a harry chapin thread. Go eat your melba toast, gramps. |
While I'll admit the humor in that line, did Harry Chapin sodomize you in a bus stop once or something? You seem to have quite a grudge. I wonder if Harry beat you to his record label, causing you to have to suck off bums through bus station glory holes or something? Have you been left to life of squalor from his musical success? |
I just made a harmless jest in the usual arfcom tradition and everyone is being very grim about it. Like that kid in 10th grade who reported me for reading a comic book during detention. That having been said, and since you ask, Harry's songs are too mopey for me. If you like it, however, go to town. If you're british, stop by the house for tea and strumpets. |
