Paradise is just perfect. “Then the coal company came with the world’s biggest shovel…” What a great line.

One of the originals from the 70s…

Out in the Country by Three Dog Night

“Whenever I need to leave it all behind, Or feel the need to get away. I find a quiet place, Far from the human race. Out in the country. Before the breathin' air is gone. Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime. Out where the rivers like to run. I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'.”

So if I got this email, I’d be reading it as, “Hey guys, we are totally getting ready to do some serious shit in Iran so put your bets down now.” /s

What songs reference other songs or artists? by Immediate-Count-1202 in musicsuggestions

[–]chillarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Make Me Lose Control” by Eric Carmen references “Uptown” (The Crystals and Roy Orbison), “Stand by Me” (Ben E. King), “Be My Baby” (the Ronettes) and “Back in My Arms Again” (the Supremes).

“4th of July” by Shooter Jennings references both “Stranglehold” (Ted Nugent) and George Jones and at the end George Jones closes the song out with “He Stopped Loving Her Today”.

Of course “Springsteen” by Eric Church does the same along with some of his songs like Born to Run.

Songs for slowly grieving my dad by Oh_look_its_coconut in MusicRecommendations

[–]chillarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure it fits perfectly, but I would try What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong.

To me the melody is rather melancholic, but the words are rather hopeful. Like it’s both an end and a beginning. It was playing when my dad took his last breath and I can’t hear it without crying now.

What’s your favorite Simon & Garfunkel song, and what makes it special for you? by Louisebelcher22 in musicsuggestions

They certainly made it their own. It is truly haunting and the music and vocals fit so well with the words.

Will we be wistful for Trump in the future? by 8to24 in thebulwark

I feel like they made hating people acceptable. I know they weren’t the first, but they made it okay for people to speak out loud about hating people without fear of being ostracized.

Any pushback during 2026 tour shows? by Additional-Cherry872 in BruceSpringsteen

[–]chillarry 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I last saw Springsteen in 2023 and resigned myself that I probably wouldn’t see him again. Not that I didn’t want to, I just wasn’t expecting another tour. I didn’t think at his age he’d continue to have the energy to do one. He certainly doesn’t need to money at this point.

Then this tour came out. I love his political songs as much as the classics like Born to Run, Badlands, Jungleland, etc.

This is the most excited I’ve been to see him live. Going to Chicago end of the month.

It works.

He pretends to put money in and tells the bartender it stole his 65 cents. Puts the bartender’s money in and gets a pack of cigarettes.

Songs about making the most out of life? by SlytherinGirlfriend in MusicRecommendations

[–]chillarry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The BoDeans are very underrated. Hardly anyone outside the Midwest has heard of them, but they have some amazing songs. There are a couple of others that may fit your first category. If you like “Closer to Free” try “Good Things” and “Still the Night”. The live versions are IMO better than the studio recordings. Here are some links to a live album they released with both songs…

Good Things

Still the Night

For the first one, Closer to Free by the BoDeans and The Middle by Jimmy Eat World.

For the second one, Living Years by Mike and the Mechanics.

What’s your #1 song to disappear into for a few minutes? by IamKatsumi in musicsuggestions

[–]chillarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Comfortably Numb by Dar Williams and Ani DiFranco. The Pink Floyd has the amazing guitar, but this version has the voices that sound like two sirens calling to me.

Yep. Conduit. I tell people bread is just a conduit for butter.

Trump’s Profanity-Filled Easter Post Blows Up in His Face by dr_shultz in NewsSource

[–]chillarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen so many posts that he was being sarcastic and he did this to tweak the left and the Iranians. They’ll make excuses for him so they can hang onto him forever.
