Terrific first verse but sadly deteriorates afterwards for me.

What do you think the song’s meaning/signifies @farmerinthecity

  • Terrific chorus
  • Party anthem

I even overlook the similarly to Subterranean Homesick Blues.

[QUOTE=“Fagan ODowd, post: 985485, member: 706”]Listening to a great record tonight. Ladies of the Canyon, by Joni Mitchell. I think this is the standout track. For free. Can’t believe its 44 years since I heard it first.

Fuck off you cunt. If you live half the life Fagan has, you’ll be a lucky man. How many men can say they hurled in the San Siro and shifted Debbie Harry in the East Village*?

[SIZE=3]*ok, half the east village probably shifted Debbie Harry back in the day, but my point still stands.[/SIZE]
