Bad times swirl around us.....It seems relentless. Sometimes you just have to listen to some rcok. Its good for you. Lou Reed kicks ass!!
Jenny said when she was just five years old
you know there's nothing happening at all
Every time she puts on the radio
There was nothing goin' down at all
Then one fine mornin' she puts on a New York station
She couldn't believe what she heard at all
She started dancin' to that fine fine music
You know her life was saved by Rock 'n' Roll
Despite all the amputations
You could just dance to a rock 'n' roll station
Jenny said when she was just five years old
My parents are gonna be the death of us all
Two TV sets and two Cadillac cars--
Ain't gonna help us at all
Then one fine mornin' she puts on a New York station
She don't believe what she heard at all
She started dancin' to that fine fine music
You know her life was saved by Rock 'n' Roll
Despite all the computations
You could just dance to a rock 'n ' roll station
and it was alright.

somehow on some level, D, you are right music does save our souls. my favorite comment you shared with me years ago was an observation about when times get bad, the music gets better. how true is that! times are bad... we are digging out tunes that mean something to us and help us make sense of this mad world... and new ones are being written to help us limp along to better times as well.
cheers to the music that seeps into our souls. thank you for sharing some Lou Reed!
