And the sign says "Long-haired freaky people need not apply"
So I put my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why

caution: explicit lyrics.

He said you look like a fine outstanding young man, I think you'll do
So I took off my hat, I said "Imagine that, huh, me working for you"

 

Standing alone in a dream
Where nothing is real


Sometimes you got to believe
Beyond yesterday
I'm gonna find my way
In the summer's rain

 

In the still of the night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door


My heart start aching
My body start a shaking
And I can't take no more, no, no

 

I am a traveler of both time and space, to be where I have been


Let me take you there. Let me take you there

 

Dark eyes shine with strange desire
Velvet cold skin tastes like fire



Round and round and down she goes
Where she stops nobody really knows

 

I've been everywhere, man
Cross the deserts bare, man


I've breathed the mountain air, man
Of travel I've had my share, man
I've been everywhere


-RIP Lynn Anderson.

 

How about Creep on the Theremin?

As a side note, the mood of that song is totally different between the radio version and the unedited. Just one word changed, and it goes from admiration to dejection.

 

I smoke too many cigarettes
My lungs they should be caving in
But I'm still breathing in the atmosphere
The smog's so bad this time of year




I'm saving for a holiday
I never seem to break away
But I keep on dreaming of the perfect life

 

When she's sad the world is lonely
Silver clouds are crying only
For the pain she feels
So deep inside




Spread your wings, you can glide
Above the violent storms that plague your life
You paint the picture blue or gray
Fly away

 

Here's a few of what I like/love:

Good rockin' tune:


^^ Short, sweet and O Daddy O eight beats to the bar!

Heartfelt love song, cute gal too, IMHO:


One great tune by the late great Mr Don Rich, one of my all time favorite guitar player and song too. This one done very nicely:


A band widely mocked yet killing this ZZ Top tribute:


Cool tune, just for fun---watch the background dancers!


Two uber-hot sex kittens from way, way, way back:


Another hot chick, some guy named Kenny too.........

 

For over a hundred years I've been watching you
You've tried your best to run away, but I won't let you




I see in his eyes, I see in his face
It's death in disguise, I'm more than amazed
He wants us forever, play in his game

 

And she would not be wrong!

Saw one posted for Led Zepp----when it comes to cover bands here's one of the all time best for the boys........


Those gals might be ringers though huh?

 

yeah that was a spectacular cover.speaking of ringers.great white sure covers it probably like no one else but zep can do it.here's the boy's live.have a listen;

 

That is a nice version of Stairway.....---goes to show a good song can live on forever.....

What I liked about Heart's version is before hitting nationally they were playing in bars, doing better than decent covers of Zep's tunes. I always found it good funny it took a powerful female voice to approximate Robert's vocals. In fact Jimmy once said during studio sessions baffles would be set up around Robert because his singing would bleed into other open microphones which is a problem during some recordings.

Another link I found about Heart's tribute was this one, not directly on-point but interesting none the less: The Real Reason for Robert Plant?s Tears During ?Stairway to Heaven? - OnStage Magazine.com

 

We had broken up for good just an hour before
Uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh
