5fouls Posted February 23, 2023 Report Share Posted February 23, 2023 Had not heard this song in forever. Heard it on the way home tonight. The display told me it came out in 2003. I remember when it came out, I was still on the 'good' side of the age tracker. 20 years later, this song has more meaning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUFLA Posted March 1, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 (edited) Glen Campbell was one of my Dad's favorites, and I loved his music too...This was Dad's favorite song, and mine too, when I was about 12...I think he's a very underappreciated musician... And since I'll be seeing a BUNCH of these today at the Houston Rodeo... Edited March 1, 2023 by IUFLA 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After seeing someone with Alzheimer’s that song took on a new meaning. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrflynn03 Posted March 4, 2023 Report Share Posted March 4, 2023 Metallicas new album release on April 14, "72 Seasons". It's been 7 years since Hardwired so right on schedule. They released Kill'em All in 1983. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steubenhoosier Posted March 25, 2023 Report Share Posted March 25, 2023 Victor Oladipo, BS'13, recently released a new album titled "Tunde." While talking with "American Songwriter," he mentioned showcasing his voice at IU Bloomington. "I actually have yet to ever sing the "National Anthem," so that’s one thing on my bucket list. But I’ve sung at Hoosier Hysteria, which is this really big thing at the university I went to [Indiana University]. They pack it out with fans. I performed there," Oladipo says.

Lostin76 Posted April 2, 2023 Report Share Posted April 2, 2023 The missus and I figured that if we were going to see Elton John on his Farewell Tour then it should be in London. So, we flew over for a long weekend this weekend. INCREDIBLE show and performer. He hit all of the highlights - and the dude has a lot of them! You could tell he was pretty emotional on some of the songs. Their was a career retrospective montage during “I’m Still Standing” and it was like, “Damn, this dude has been on everything.” Who else has been on Sesame Street, The Muppets, Soul Train, The Simpsons, Sonny and Cher, etc, etc. I’m not sure there is a more important musical, pop culture icon still with us that spans that many decades and touched so many different genres. Definitely a concert highlight for me. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdhoosier Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 Anybody think that Marvin Gaye is rolling in his grave over his estate’s stupid law suit against Ed Sheeran? If Sheeran loses it’s going to set quite the precedence. How are any more pop songs going to get written if they’re going to allow people to enforce copyrights on chord progressions? Haha. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUFLA Posted May 19, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2023 Google Play music, which morphed into YouTube Music, jacked their Family Plan up to $22.99 a month so I ditched them in favor of Apple Music... Works well with Google Assistant... No real change in that... I do like they way the music sounds ("Lossless" is a nice feature) and they seemingly have an as good of not better catalog... I probably would have went with Spotify, but of the 6 of us, 4 have iPhones, and getting stupid Siri to work on any other streaming service is an exercise in hoop jumping...

FritzIam4IU Posted May 21, 2023 Report Share Posted May 21, 2023 I saw Buffett had to cancel his Charleston SC show due to health issues and was in hospital. I’ve seen him a few times over the years…hope he is ok. This is one of my favorites of his. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted May 26, 2023 Report Share Posted May 26, 2023 Accents have always fascinated me. I have an Aunt who grew up in Southern Indiana, moved to Connecticut 50 years ago, and has sounded like a native New Englander for years. How does that happen? Anyway, I also find it interesting that accents are often 'lost' when singing. You often can't tell a musical artist has an accent until you hear them speak. That is NOT the case for this song, however. I've always really liked the song, and it played on the radio in my car about 15 minutes ago. Dolores O'Riordan's accent comes out in full force during this song, and it's perfect. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrflynn03 Posted May 26, 2023 Report Share Posted May 26, 2023 (edited) I can't lie, I always had a thing for Dolores since the original Mission Impossible. She wasn't in it but the Cranberries song "Dreams" played at the end. @5foulssame song but I really like this version.

5fouls Posted June 2, 2023 Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 (edited) Heard this song on the car radio about an hour ago. I still remember the first time I heard it. It was the early 90's and I was driving home very late at night after visiting a friend in Bowling Green, Kentucky. If you've never driven the stretch of I-65 between Bowling Green and Louisville, its about as boring as it can get. At 1 A.M., it's a downright lonely stretch of road. I remember the song, because I was super focused on the radio in an effort to keep me awake, and when the song came on, it literally gave me the chills. Don't know if it was the whistling, the song's message, or just a perfect storm of everything at that moment to create an emotional response that would stick with me forever. But, it did.
