Rufus and Chaka: "Little Boy Blue" ...
I know we've talked about this before, but this tune was killin me today, especially Tony Maiden's rhythm and lead guitar, and Clare Fischer's beautiful string arrangement!! Litle Boy Blue (J. Farris) Time comes down You got to take it on yourself You got to give up your past You got to give up what came last World goes round You got to leave it all behind You got defeated at last Little boy blue With the feelin' in your soul and the gypsy in your eyes Little boy blue You got to leave this song behind as it passes by Yeah, yeah Life goes on You got to catch it if you can You must believe it will last You can't remember what went past Tide comes in This fog will surely roll away It can't leave, it will stay Little boy blue Tootin' on your coke and takin' a toke In a lazy haze Little boy blue Got to leave this song behind as it passes by Tide comes in This boat will surely row away It can't leave if we stay Little boy blue Tootin' on your coke and takin' a toke In a lazy haze Little boy blue Got to leave this song behind as it passes by ... " I've got six things on my mind --you're no longer one of them." - Paddy McAloon, Prefab Sprout | |

That song is too complex
For some reason, I can't get into it. Me & Chri$ had this conversation before. The hardest songs to get into are the most addictive later | |

I dig it... those lyrics use to crack me up..no pun intended. I guess it was the phrasing..sounding something like Pooty Tang would say. | |
