übersetzt dieses "Liebst Du mich wirklich" in eine neue Liebestheorie.

Tim Hardin: Misty Roses
"STORIES REACHED HOME ABOUT TIM'S BATTLES WITRH HEROINE AND ALCOHOL.  HIS FRIENDS, MYSELF INCLUDED, WONDERED ABOUT HIS WHEREABOUTS AND CONDITION."

"too late to find, that the beauty has been
Lost--with their piece of mind"

Badly drawn Boy: Pissing in the Wind

Learn to forget

 DUMFRIES

Eagles: The sad Cafe
"als hätten sie vor den Aufnahmesitzungen Valium geschluckt" (Franz Schöler) "It is really serves as the perfect "swan song" for the eagles, a little more subtle but still much like the song "let it be" for the beatles." (renterclint/www.songmeanings.com)  "Yep, it was The Eagles “Sad Café” – and how often does life conspire to do that?  The rain and the music coming together, at the same time as two friends – unable to help one another – share sad news." (cafe-quest.com)
"But things in this life
Change very slowly
If they ever change at all"           

Mystic Chords of Memory: We could send Letters
"written by Aztec Camera’s Roddy Frame when he was just a wee 16-years-old boy from East Kilbride"  (susancsmith.wordpress.com)  "And yet, songs like "We Could Send Letters" off of Aztec Camera's sublime debut LP High Land, Hard Rain have a sorrow that belies their sheen. They're more like the regretful memory of a vacation than the vacation itself."  (Noel Murray/www.avclub.com) "they (Mystic Chords of Memory) underline the dreaminess of the lyric with washes of electronic sound." (www.covermesongs.com)
"You're free to push me and I'm free to fall"
