| Neil put her down... Southern man don't need him around. |

He's a mutated relative of Bob Dylan, but unlike Dylan, will sometimes play electric guitar. I'm not a Dylan fan. Electrified Dylan-style music doesn't do much better in my book. I have a friend who looks like Neil Young after a really rough week of partying. And that's on a GOOD day for him.   CJ |

One of my favorite songs. Covered by the Man in Black of course.

Have you ever listened to his album "Are You Passionate"? I didn't think so, but that shouldn't stand in the way of your rant. "Are You Passionate?" Are you passionate? Are you livin' like you talk? Are you dreamin' now that you're goin' to the top? Are you negative, In a world that never stops, Turnin' on you? Turnin' on me? Turnin' on you? Are you loving it? Can you ever get enough of it? Is it everything? A love that never stops, Comin' to you? Comin' to me? Comin' to you? Once I was a soldier, I was fighting in the sky, And the gunfire kept comin' back on me. So I dove into the darkness, And I let my missles fly. And they might be the ones, That kept you free. Once I was a prisoner, I was riding in a truck, Cleaned up for public display. I looked at those around me, And when they looked at me, I let them see my soul that day. Are you scared of it? Do you wish that it would stop? Does it bother you when you hear your spirit talk? Well I'm right with you, Yes I'm right with you. It's working on me, It's working on you. It's working on me. Or how about this? www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6Mfq7z_vHc I know I said I love you, I know you know it's true, I've got to put the phone down, And do what we got to do. One's standing in the iselway, Two more at the door, We've got to get inside there, Before they kill somemore. Time is runnin' out, Let's roll. Time is runnin' out, Let's roll. No time for indecision, We've got to make a move, I hope that were foregiven, For what we got to How this all got started, I'll never understand, I hope someone can fly this thing, And get us back to land. Time is runnin' out, Let's roll. Time is runnin' out, Let's roll. No one has the answer, But one thing is true, You've got to turn on evil, When it's coming after you, You've gota face it down, And when it tries to hide, You've gota go in after it, And never be denied, Time is runnin' out, Let's roll. Let's roll for freedome, Let's roll for love, We're going after satan, On the wings of a dove, Let's roll for justice, Let's roll for truth, Let's not let our children, Grow up fearfull in there youth. Time is runnin' out, Let's roll. Time is runnin' out, Let's roll. Time is runnin' out, Let's roll. And here is another from "Sleeps With Angels" Frontier town, Home of the western hero Frontier justice, Dealt with the iron hand He wore a long coat to the ground He wore big boots that made a sound He wore a six gun on his hip But now he doesn't carry it Sure enough, He was a western hero On the deck, Sighting an old Jap zero And on the shores at Normandy He fought for you, He fought for me Across the land and on the sea But now he's just a memory And in the distance, The rocket's red glare The bombs burst in the air This time We're never going back Through the years He changed somehow He's different now He's different now Open fire, Here comes the western hero Standing there, Big money in his hand Sure enough, He was a western hero, Sure enough Bill |
