Jackson Browne The Load Out & Stay (Live BBC 1978)

Now we get two stones with one rock (or something like that :D). Jackson Browne presents The Load Out & Stay in a row. Both released in 1977. I got only one word: ENJOY!!

Now the seats are all empty

Let the roadies take the stage

Pack it up and tear it down

They're the first to come and last to leave

Working for that minimum wage

They'll set it up in another town

Tonight the people were so fine

They waited there in line

And when they got up on their feet they made the show

And that was sweet,

But I can hear the sound

Of slamming doors and folding chairs

And that's a sound they'll never know

Now roll them cases out and lift them amps

Haul them trusses down and ge t'em up them ramps

'Cause when it comes to moving me

You know you guys are the champs

But when that last guitar's been packed away

You know that I still want to play

So just make sure you got it all set to go

Before you come for my piano

But the band's on the bus

And they're waiting to go

We've got to drive all night and do a show in Chicago

Or Detroit, I don't know

We do so many shows in a row

And these towns all look the same

We just pass the time in our hotel rooms

And wander 'round backstage

Till those lights come up and we hear that crowd

And we remember why we came

Now we got country and western on the bus

R&B, we got disco in eight tracks and cassettes in stereo

We've got rural scenes and magazines

And We've got truckers on the cb

We've got Richard Pryor on the video

We got time to think of the ones we love

While the miles roll away

But the only time that seems too short

Is the time that we get to play

People you've got the power over what we do

You can sit there and wait

Or you can pull us through

Come along, sing the song

You know you can't go wrong

'Cause when that morning sun comes beating down

You're going to wake up in your town

But we'll be scheduled to appear

A thousand miles away from here

---

People stay

Just a little bit longer

We want to play

Just a little bit longer

Now the promoter don't mind

And the union don't mind

If we take a little time

And we leave it all behind, and sing

One more song

Oh, won't you stay

Just a little bit longer?

Please, please, please

Say you will, say you will

Oh, won't you stay

Just a little bit longer?

Oh please, please stay

Just a little bit more

Now the promoter don't mind

And the roadies don't mind

If we take a little time

And we leave this all behind and sing

One more song

Pink Floyd - Mother

This time we have Pink Floyd, it was released in 1979.

Mother do you think they'll drop the bomb

Mother do you think they'll like the song

Mother do you think they'll try to break my balls

Ooooh aah, Mother should I build a wall

Mother should I run for president

Mother should I trust the government

Mother will they put me in the firing line

Ooooh aah, is it just a waste of time

Hush now baby don't you cry

Mama's gonna make all of your

Nightmares come true

Mama's gonna put all of her fears into you

Mama's gonna keep you right here

Under her wing

She won't let you fly but she might let you sing

Mama will keep baby cosy and warm

Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe

Of course Mama's gonna help build the wall

Mother do think she's good enough for me

Mother do think she's dangerous to me

Mother will she tear your little boy apart

Oooh aah, mother will she break my heart

Hush now baby, baby don't you cry

Mama's gonna check out all your girl friends for you

Mama won't let anyone dirty get through

Mama's gonna wait up till you come in

Mama will always find out where

You've been

Mamma's gonna keep baby healthy and clean

Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe

You'll always be a baby to me

Mother, did it need to be so high.

Smokie - Lay Back in the Arms of Someone

Here we go again... This time Smokie, who's awesome song in lay back in the arms of someone. This was released in 1977.

If you want my sympathy

Just open your heart to me

And you'll get whatever you'll ever need

You think that's too high for you

Oh baby, I would die for you

When there's nothing left

You know where I'll be

Lay back in the arms of someone

Give in to the charms of someone

Lay back in the arms of some one you love

Lay back in the arms of someone

When you feel you're a part of someone

Lay back in the arms of someone you love

So baby just call on me

When you want all of me

I'll be your lover

I'll be your friend

And there's nothing I won't do

'Cause baby I just live for you

With nothing to hide

No need to pretend

Oh

Lay back in the arms of someone

You give in to the charms of someone

Lay back in the arms of some one you love

Baby

Lay back in the arms of someone

When you feel you're a part of someone

Lay back in the arms of someone you love

Oh I know you think that's too high for you

Oh baby I would die for you

When there's nothing left

I'll be with you

Oh

Lay back in the arms of someone

You give in to the charms of someone

Lay back in the arms of some one you love

Baby

Lay back in the arms of someone

When you feel you're a part of someone

Lay back in the arms of someone you love

Oh yeah

Led Zeppelin - Immigrant Song

I just watched Thor: Ragnarok (2017), and this song played during the movie. This was released in 1970. Next song is from the Thor sequal Love and Thunder (2022) trailer, sweet child o' mine... Great songs, both of them, enjoy,,,

Ah-ah, ah!

Ah-ah, ah!

We come from the land of the ice and snow

From the midnight sun where the hot springs flow

The hammer of the gods

Will drive our ships to new lands

To fight the horde, sing and cry

Valhalla, I am coming

On we sweep with threshing oar

Our only goal will be the western shore

Ah-ah, ah!

Ah-ah, ah!

We come from the land of the ice and snow

From the midnight sun where the hot springs flow

How soft your fields so green

Can whisper tales of gore

Of how we calmed the tides of war

We are your overlords

On we sweep with threshing oar

Our only goal will be the western shore

So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins

For peace and trust can win the day despite of all your losing

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ahh, ah

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Neil Young - Old Man

 The best, of THE BEST!! I like this kind of a music. I also like "twenty twenty" hit-mix music, but if I were to choose; my pick would be Neil Young (...and the rest of the cast, who does - nor did - same kinda music)! This was released in 1972. Enjoy: in the meaning of a word ~ ENJOY!!

I'm a lot like you were.

Old man look at my life,

I'm a lot like you were.

Old man look at my life,

Twenty four

and there's so much more

Live alone in a paradise

That makes me think of two.

Love lost, such a cost,

Give me things

that don't get lost.

Like a coin that won't get tossed

Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life

I'm a lot like you

I need someone to love me

the whole day through

Ah, one look in my eyes

and you can tell that's true.

Lullabies, look in your eyes,

Run around the same old town.

Doesn't mean that much to me

To mean that much to you.

I've been first and last

Look at how the time goes past.

But I'm all alone at last.

Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life

I'm a lot like you

I need someone to love me

the whole day through

Ah, one look in my eyes

and you can tell that's true.

Old man look at my life,

I'm a lot like you were.

Old man look at my life,

I'm a lot like you were.
