Whoa.
Y'know for the longest time, I never paid much attention to Same Old Lang Syne. Then two days ago, as I was returning fron Christmas shopping & parking my car in the garage, this song had finished playing. I was sudden;y hit with how much I liked this song. It's been on heavy rotation to my computer since then (at 40 times since). It seems to add a certain sense of loss when you like a recently deceased artists song like that. | |

The leader of the band is tired
and his eyes are growing old but his blood runs through my instruments and his song is in my soul My life has been a poor attempt to imitate the man I am a living legacy of the Leader of the Band  |

God bless Don Fogelberg and his loved ones. | |

I'm not frontin'...I only liked about 3 of his songs, but they were great songs and sung beautifully. RIP
Pure Brilliance: Met my old lover in the grocery store The snow was falling christmas eve I stole behind her in the frozen foods And I touched her on the sleeve She didnt recognize the face at first But then her eyes flew open wide She went to hug me and she spilled her purse And we laughed until we cried. We took her groceries to the checkout stand The food was totalled up and bagged We stood there lost in our embarrassment As the conversation dragged. We went to have ourselves a drink or two But couldnt find an open bar We bought a six-pack at the liquor store And we drank it in her car. We drank a toast to innocence We drank a toast to now And tried to reach beyond the emptiness But neither one knew how. She said shed married her an architect Who kept her warm and safe and dry She would have liked to say she loved the man But she didnt like to lie. I said the years had been a friend to her And that her eyes were still as blue But in those eyes I wasnt sure if I saw Doubt or gratitude. She said she saw me in the record stores And that I must be doing well I said the audience was heavenly But the traveling was hell. We drank a toast to innocence We drank a toast to now And tried to reach beyond the emptiness But neither one knew how. We drank a toast to innocence We drank a toast to time Reliving in our eloquence Another auld lang syne... The beer was empty and our tongues were tired And running out of things to say She gave a kiss to me as I got out And I watched her drive away. Just for a moment I was back at school And felt that old familiar pain And as I turned to make my way back home The snow turned into rain -- [Edited 12/17/07 14:40pm] Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind. | |

I saw him perform at the US FESTIVAL, at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, back in the 80's. He was a much more dynamic performer than I thought he was, he ROCKED it! May he be resting peacefully.  | |

People better not point to this as proof of the death trilogy or death duo or whatever you wanna call it bullshit. This was merely a coicindent. He only coincidentally died the same week as Ike Turner | |
