St. Robinson in His Cadillac Dream
the funnest song to try to sing along with; great driving music
I was born on the shores of Chesapeake Bay
But Maryland and Virginia have faded away
And I keep thinking tomorrow is coming today
So I am endlessly waiting
Speedway
very melancholy and emotional
In all this time, the bottom line
You don't know how much I feel
You say you see
But I don't agree
Don't know, don't know how I feel
Miami
just a cool song. i like how it builds up to its conclusion about "shutting it down" in New Orleans
The bus is running
It's time to leave
This summer's gone
And so are we
So come on baby,
Let's go shut it down in New Orleans
I Wish I Was a Girl
easy and fun to sing along to
For all the things I'm losing
I might as well resign myself to try and make a change
And I'm going down to hollywood
They're gonna make a movie from the things
That they find crawling round my brain
Sullivan Street
best melancholy Crows song of all time
She's nearly crawling on her knees
It's almost everything I need
Plus I have to include what are probably my favorite CC lyrics in all of their songs:
We'll I'm all messed up, that's nothing new
Hey monkey, when you open up your blue eyes,
I don't know if I'm wide awake or dreaming
But all I ever need is everything
("Monkey")
Dave's faves:
Hanginaround ("came out right about the time I was tired of living in California, so I left there")
Long December ("because it came out right before I went out to California, and it talks about being there")
Bob's fave:
Raining in Baltimore ("it bookends a great episode of Homicide")
