Pearl Jam Black https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cs-XZ_dN4Hc Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay Were laid spread out before me, as her body once did All five horizons revolved around her soul, as the earth to the sun Now the air I tasted and breathed, has taken a turn Ooh, and all I taught her was everything, Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds, of what was everything Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything I take a walk outside, I'm surrounded by some kids at play I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear ? Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head, I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning How quick the sun can drop away And now my bitter hands, cradle broken glass of what was everything All the pictures have, all been washed in black, tattooed everything All the love gone bad, turned my world to black Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be... yeah I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a sun in somebody else's sky, but why why, why can't it be, can't it be mine ?
^ Great start to a new page on this thread. IMO their best. Some of the most powerful lyrics put to paper. T

Mothership - Led Zeppelin. It's a compilation of course but has many of my favourite tracks. Great for in the car if you only have a CD player as I do
Miranda Lambert. Live in concert. Last night in Bossier City, Louisiana. After opening act, and before she comes on, Miranda played this song on the big screen. Likely lost on the much younger than my wife & I crowd. But, big props to Ms. Lambert for recognizing a pioneer. https://youtu.be/JeaBNAXfHfQ Did a nice cover of this classic by Sir Rod Stewart. https://youtu.be/mqwCko-kzR0 T
Wow. As someone without a shred of musical talent, I am always impressed by people who can play a musical instrument very well, more so young prodigies. T
"King George" was on one of the Rock Band games (3, I think). That's where I first discovered them! Here's a throwback for your Thursday! "A Girl Like You" by The Smithereens: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4JFqfqIPKA
