But it evokes and era and brings back memories for some of us, Tom.
And those things are what a lot of music is about, ja?
Sure is but this song just rubs me the wrong way.
There’s a few do that to me, too and I’m not sure why, mostly.
But the most ratbastard piece of snivelling dirge just has to be “Ebony and Ivory”.
Whenever I hear that I want to strangle something.
The one I can’t stand is Hotel California or for that matter anything by the arfing Eagles.
At work today the local classic rock station was running Heart tunes all day.Always did like the Wilson sisters,those girls can rock,course I always had a thing for Nancy https://youtu.be/RBq_THTWNM4
Beth Hart did an album and tour with Joe Bonnamassa recently. Un-effing-believable, that woman can wail!
Agreed,forgot about that one.
If it is any consolation KG, Robbie Robertson of the Band had this to say…..Robbie Robertson:
I hate having (lyrics on albums) now. I say ‘Is my diction so bad?’ People piss and moan about it, but I don’t like it. When I read other people’s lyrics on their sleeves I think they look stupid. If I read the lyrics to some of my favourite songs, they don’t mean shit to me. But if I hear ‘When A Man Loves A Woman’, it is so powerful and emotional. All I want out of any of these songs is the right emotion. I don’t give a shit what the lyrics are. Dylan rambled on way too much for my liking. I remember years ago saying to him: ‘listen to ‘When A Man Loves A Woman’; I like this more than any of the songs we’re playing. This is emotional to me; our songs are clever. I don’t care for clever. Let’s try and get somewhere that has an emotional thing.
Yes! Thanks for that, Rivoniaboy.
The Band…now there was a great band indeed.
I believe Robbie Robertson is the only one still residing this side of musician heaven.
“When a man loves a woman. ” Would someone mentally normal please explain to me why there is something wrong with this song.
There’s nothing wrong with it as far as I can tell, Mara.
But then, I’ve never claimed to be mentally normal.
In my case because he sounds like he is in pain. But hey to each his {or} her own.
My all time favorite song! It lead me to slow dance with and hold tightly more than one beautiful woman. Rest in Peace Percy Sledge – Thanks a lot!
Sorry I hate this song.Nearlly as bad as beeber
