Songs about the life

[DrumEatDrum]

Oh, and how could we forget

Where I May Roam - Metallica

 

[2 hit wonder]

Is it ok if I mention Dreams by Molly Hatchett again?

 

[Sonar Dave]

That’s not what that’s about, although I love the song, it’s possibly my favorite REM song

Yeah, I like it too.

Jackson Browne - Load Out

Work To Do - Average White Band

Actually an Isley Brothers song, AWB changed their lyric "job" to "gig" which made it more about music.

Touring can be like being the sailor on a sea faring vessel destined for all kinds of adventure .Shore leave romance is temporary because the " ocean is my home " . Bar maids and musicians sometimes have more in common than they do with their customers . Just like prose , poetry and parables , good songs tell stories with diverse meanings .

We have different experiences , this is how the lyrics of Brandy spoke to me .

 

[Elvis]

Have a Cigar - Pink Floyd

Might as well have mentioned the whole Wish you were here album.
