Too Late For Love, Bringing On The Heartbreak, Animal and Rock Of Ages all rank right up there, but if I had to choose just ONE Def Leppard song played at top decibal level it would be ‘Women’.


In the beginning,

God made the land

Then He made the waters, and creatures,

Then he made Man.

He was born with a passion,

Love and Hate,

A restless spirit, with a need for a mate

But there was something missing,

Something lost.

So He came with the answer, here’s what it cost.

One part love, one part Wild
One part lady, one part child

I GIVE YOU

WOMEN, WOMEN, LOTS OF PRETTY WOMEN

Men, men, they can’t live without them


And it continues.

Love it lyrically and it rocks.

On My Way

I want to kill this man
But he turned around and ran
I'll kill him with karate
That I learned in Japan
He wouldn't see my face
I wouldn't leave a trace
I wouldn't use a bullet
'Cause a bullet's a disgrace
Aw, momma
I never thought that I was a murdering man
But tonight I'm on my way
There's this drawer that I know
In a house up the road
That's full of things
That are easily sold
When they go out of town
I could go and snoop around
And make myself rich
Off the things that I found
Aw, momma
I never thought that I was a stealing man
But tonight I'm on my way
I was sitting on the bleacher
Staring at the speaker
Reading his lips
But I could not understand
So I opened up my ears
And clearly I could hear
This detailed story
All about a grain of sand
Aw, momma
I always dreamt of being a good listener
So tonight I'm on my way
There's this kid you gotta meet
He lives across the street
He's got spirit and heart
We're ten years apart
He is up for anything
He can hang with anyone
He still likes the things
We used to think were fun
Aw, momma
I never thought that I could have a friend
But tonight I'm on my way
I'm in love with someone
Who's as pretty as a flower
Her life gives me power
So I'm buyin' her a ring
She makes hats with her hands
She is such an artist
I'm her biggest fan
And I'm teaching her to sing
Aw, momma
I never thought that I could love no one
But tonight I'm on my way

From my new favorite song, Hey Mama by Nate Rateliff

Hey mama, it's me
Said you better wait child
Said you've been a long time running
Hey mama, answer me
Baby boy you better sit down
Can't listen when the sun's out
My only son this will be so hard to hear

C'mon mama what do you mean
I know you've been knocked down
I know it ain't all been easy
Nothing ever good really is

Why you gotta wait so long
Why you gotta wait so long

But she said son
Let me reason with you
You think you carry such a weight
I know I never beat you boy
Better start acting like
This here's a race

You ain't gone far enough to say
At least I tried
You ain't worked hard enough to say
Well I've done mine
You ain't run far enough to say
My legs have failed
You ain't gone far enough
You ain't worked hard enough
You ain't run far enough to say
It ain't gonna get any better
Thank god I am oblivious to the opinions of others while caught in the blinding splendor of my own cleverness.

Some songs instantly put me in a great mood.

‘Call On Me’ by Chicago is one of them.

The opening line presents a wonderful visual:

“The feeling was clear, clear as a blue sky on a sunny day, and everything was you, oooohh

Cause no one makes me feel the way I felt with you, whoaaaaaoo

Call on me cause I love you, you know I do, you love me too, ooooohh”

Outstanding!
