1 mormon + 2 radio stations + singing along = ?


i've discovered how if i ever get taken hostage- how the interrogators/interviewers/torturers/enemy would get information out of me:

i've endured enough, so i need to speak out on this injustice. i'm not getting my ride-home nap anymore & i'm actually being brutalized. when my mormon friend does the driving for our commute, i get the "privilege" of listening to what he wants to listen to. it's either mormon tabernacle stuff or it's Sunny 106.9 or 98.1 KBull- i know, say a prayer for me.

this morning's song selection was exquisitely sang & even gave me the chills. i was trying to get a few extra minutes of shut-eye, but this wasn't going to happen. the two most notable sing-along-songs were:

  1. I can't stand to flyI'm not that naiveI'm just out to findThe better part of me I'm more than a bird:I'm more than a planeMore than some pretty face beside a train andIt's not easy to be me Wish that I could cryFall upon my kneesFind a way to lieAbout a home I'll never see It may sound absurd:but don't be naiveEven Heroes have the right to bleedI may be disturbed:but won't you conceedEven Heroes have the right to dream butIt's not easy to be me Up, up and away:away from meIt's all right:You can all sleep sound tonightI'm not crazy:or anything: I can't stand to flyI'm not that naiveMen weren't meant to rideWith clouds between their knees I'm only a man in a silly red sheetDigging for kryptonite on this one way streetOnly a man in a funny red sheetLooking for special things inside of me It's not easy to be me. (five for fighting: superman- it's not easy) on Sunny 106.9
  2. I drank till I StumbledI drank till i fellWhen The drunk part was over it hurt me like hell now i know about drinkin so i know onethings true bein drunk's a lot like lovin youCause I loved till i stumbledI loved till I fellWhen the When the lovin was over it hurt me like hell I know what a taste of the wrong lovecan do being drunk's a lot like lovin youAnd I've woke up some mornings a sworn off the drink at that ive done reasonably well I thinkbut i havent done well swearin off you and me and that ive failed miserablyWell ive felt the hangover of lovin all night ive sat at the bar all alone in a fight I'vebottled up feelings and poured 'em out to Being drunk's a lot like lovin youAnd I've woke up some mornings a sworn off the drink at that ive done reasonably well I thinkbut i havent done well swearin off you and me and that ive failed miserablyI've drank till i stumbled I love till i fellWhen the drunk part was over love hurt me like hell now i know about drinkin so i know onethings true being drunk's a lot like lovin youWell i know what a taste of the wrong love can do sometimes i still get drunk lovin you (kenny chesney- being drunk's a lot like loving you) on 98.1 kbull

don't even think about it dc.

gc- you have a great point here. john & sherry rivers could be great interrogators.

whenever some philosophy guy tries to argue that satan is just a symbol, blah, blah, blah i usually just ask them to explain the existence of country music with their cute little theory

Wall, I don' know about that, Brint. I like Patsy Cline, Hank Williams, Sons of the Pioneers, Flying Burrito Brothers, New Riders of the Purple Sage, some K.D. Lang--mostly Cowboy music.

I tend to think that a lot of today's top 40 radio music is more proof of Satan's existence. :) Or MTV music videos. :(

don't get me wrong here. it was the two songs in specific that made me "want to talk". i like some rockabilly stuff (elvis & social distortion). i may never like music that "five for fighting" sings, but miracles to happen.
