Den gillar jag skarpt! Lärde mig spela den på 80-talet.
Hörde den i tv-programmet Jills veranda, Nashville. Blev som mera levande när man såg det slitna paret John och Tasha, där han tyckte sången precis beskrev hans kärlek till Tasha. De var verkligen typiskt trailer trash (som man nedlåtande säger), bodde i en trailer park och hon saknade en framtand. Men de älskade varandra och sina barn, man kände verkligen för dem. Och även Jills gäst, rapparen Rikard "Skizz" Bizzi föll för både detta par och själva låten.
Baby why you wanna cry? You really oughta know that I Just have to walk away sometimes We're gonna do what lovers do We're gonna have a fight or two But I ain't ever changin' my mind
Crazy girl, don't you know that I love you? And I wouldn't dream of goin' nowhere Silly woman, come here, let me hold you Have I told you lately? I love you like crazy, girl
Wouldn't miss a single day I'd probably just fade away Without you, I'd lose my mind Before you ever came along I was livin' life all wrong Smartest thing I ever did was make you all mine

Denna låt tycker jag är väldigt mycket asperger, känslan och min privata patetiska önskan om att tjejen i mitt liv skall söka upp mig....
Bootliqour radio på soma fm eller iTunes är den bästa radiokanalen ever! (Lite fin svengelska där, sorry.) http://somafm.com/bootliquor/ Hittar mycket bra där.

Bror Duktig skrev:En favoritlåt: "Oklahoma Hills" av och med Woody Guthrie. Tydligare westernmusik:
Men det står Jack Guthrie på skivan, så det är inte Woody Guthrie som sjunger. Woody Guthrie föddes i Oklahoma, precis som det står i sången. Hans kusin Jack Guthire föddes också i Oklahoma.
"Oklahoma Hills" is a song written by Woody Guthrie.
Jack Guthrie, Woody's cousin, later changed the lyrics and music and in 1945 recorded a Western swing version which he took to number one on the Juke Box Folk Records charts.
Denna version är tydligen western swing. Jag undrar vilka ändringar han gjorde i texten. Tycker han verkar sjunga Woodys text:
Many a month has come and gone Since I wandered from my home In those Oklahoma hills where I was born. Many a page of life has turned, Many a lesson I have learned; Well, I feel like in those hills I still belong.
'Way down yonder in the Indian Nation Ridin' my pony on the reservation, In those Oklahoma hills where I was born. Now, 'way down yonder in the Indian Nation, A cowboy's life is my occupation, In those Oklahoma hills where I was born.
Just ikväll såg jag ett program om country (Country roads - äkta country). Där nämndes sången Man in black (från 1971 då vietnamkriget fortfarande pågick). Här sjunger Johnny Cash Man in black första gången offentligt:
Well, you wonder why I always dress in black Why you never see bright colors on my back And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on
I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town I wear it for the prisoner who is long paid for his crime But is there because he's a victim of the times
--- And I wear it for the thousands who have died Believin' that the Lord was on their side I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died Believin' that we all were on their side
Well, there's things that never will be right I know And things need changin' everywhere you go But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right You'll never see me wear a suit of white
Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day And tell the world that everything's okay But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back Till things are brighter, I'm the Man In Black Johnny Cash - Man In Black Lyrics | MetroLyrics

-Aha, så Alien gillar The Man In Black!
Det hedrar dig och Johnny Cash förenar folk, det är min fasta övertygelse.
