C’mon Saint!

Maggie is a gem, best mod ever.
Must have caught me in a moment of sensitivity.

perhaps I shall amend.

nice lady.

MG and GC and the much missed mod VP are still on the podium.
 
I have been on this dance floor before with you.

the grave digger with the grave digger voice.

He must be high seventies now?

Apparently Maggie was the original B side of the single;
some DJ flipped it over at some station... the rest is history.

maybe that’s an old wives tale, but does sound a good story.

edit:

  • There is no real chorus in this song, but plenty of vocal and instrumental changes to keep it interesting. Running 5:46, it was considered an oddity with no hit potential and nearly left off the album. Stewart's record company, Mercury, didn't think it was a hit either, so used it as the B-side of the "Reason To Believe" single. Disc jockeys liked "Maggie" better, so they played it instead, forcing Mercury to put it out as a single. The first station to flip the single and play it as the A-side was WOKY in Milwaukee.

He was also a very handy footy player, and could go all night long.

Except his first time.

Over in seconds apparently. He was a lad of 16.
its in his biography I think.
an older bigger woman.

(Not sure it was legal.)

One of the truly great songs. Not a Joan Osborne song, but her cover version is absolutely brilliant. If you haven't seen/heard this, you really should!!:

 
While you're at it, please check this one out:


Another brilliant old song, though a modern day cover version of it. There are lots of good ones out there. The lyrics are incredible - if you actually know what they're singing about, it's hard to make it to the end of the song without shedding a tear or two!:

And when I see the sign that points one way
The lot we used to pass by every day
Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame
From deep inside the tears that I'm forced to cry
From deep inside the pain that I chose to hide
Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes
For me it cries
Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes
For me it…
Your name and mine inside a heart upon a wall
Still finds a way to haunt me, though they're so small
Just walk away


I just love this song!!
