The Juke Box II

[Coyote]

A lot of great singers suffered through drug addiction...here are two songs that cover that territory

Warren Zevon - Carmelita


Well, I'm sittin' here playing solitaire
With my pearl-handled deck
The county won't give me no more methadone
They cut off your welfare check
Carmelita hold me tighter
I think I'm sinking down
And I'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town

Depache Mode...also about heroin addiction: Higher Love

Tom Petty - Free Falling

Tom Petty - Free Falling

Great tune. Here's one of my favorites from Tom Petty.

 

[Coyote]

Black Lilies - The Fall



I am but a dreamer, I’ve seen you in between
The shadows and the sunshine falling down on me

Would you be my lover if I gave you all I had?
Flowers from the desert and gold from the ocean sand

 

[Coyote]

Tom Petty - Free Falling

Great tune. Here's one of my favorites from Tom Petty.

That's a classic - hadn't heard it in a while!

I love that band. They are really good. This cover of Neil Young's Cortez the Killer is sooo awesome. You must listen! Joe Satriani on guitar too.

I love the base line on this song...

 

[westwall]

Just a freaky song that I love..

I've never heard of that band before.

The guys ditched the gal because they felt she was getting too much attention. Idiots. I think they made one or two more albums and then disappeared.

Yeah, that's pretty dumb. A band should WANT the attention, right?

One of the most underrated bands of all time.

You would think, but guys that age have fragile ego's.

Here's a song that kind of has grown on me over the years. It's rather controversial because of the lyrics, but I really like the beat.
