Well, I'm the guy who never learned to dance
Never even got one second glance
Across a crowded room was close enough
I could look but I could never touch

So tonight I'll ask, the stars above
"How did I ever win your love?"
What did I do?
What did I say
To turn your angel eyes my way?

Angel Eyes

Yeah, the other day I got invited to a party
But I stayed home instead
Just me and my pal Johnny Walker
And his brothers Black and Red

And we drank alone, yeah
With nobody else
Yeah, you know when I drink alone
I prefer to be by myself

I Drink Alone
—George Thorogood

I'm telling you, I will not rest till I lay down my head
In the house of stone and light
I'll make my way, O gonna be such a beautiful day
In the house of stone and light
In the house of stone and light

In The House of Stone and Light
—Martin Page

It's just a fantasy (oh-oh-oh-oh)
It's not the real thing (oh-oh-oh-oh)
It's just a fantasy (oh-oh-oh-oh)
It's not the real thing (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Sometimes a fantasy (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Is all you need

Sometimes A Fantasy
—Billy Joel

after midnight, gonna shake your tambourine
after midnight, it's gonna be peaches and cream

we're gonna cause talk and suspicion
give an exhibition

find out what it is all about
after midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out

After Midnight
—Eric Clapton

It was (Chopin, Mozart, Beethoven)
It makes me wanna scream
(Bach, Tchaikovsky, violins)
Turn it off, that ain't my scene
Well, I'm sorry girl, here's my confession
I suppose a rock's out of the question?

Let’s Get Rocked
-Def Leppard

You gotta run between the raindrops, if you wanna see the sun
Run, run, run between the raindrops
Run between the raindrops, if you wanna see the sun
Run, run, run
Run baby, run

Somewhere there's a sun that's shining
Somewhere we'll find a life that's good

Run Between The Raindrops
—Pat Benatar

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the desert of truth
To the river so deep

We all end in the ocean
We all start in the streams
We're all carried along
By the river of dreams

River Of Dreams
—Billy Joel

Let your soul shine
It's better than sunshine
It's better than moonshine
Damn sure better than rain

Yeah, now people don't mind
We all feel this way sometimes
You gotta let your soul shine
Shine till the break of day

Soulshine
—Allman Brothers / Gov’t Mule

Desperado
—The Eagles

Streets of Philadelphia
—The Boss

Once…but no longer. 🤷🏻

“I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.”

You beat me to it! Great choice! 👏👏

👍👏👏👊🏻

But it's alright with me now
I'll get back up somehow
And with a little luck, I'm bound to win
'Cause I'll fall in love
I'll fall in love again

I’ll Fall In Love Again
—Sammy Hagar

When this old world starts a getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face
I'm gonna climb way up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares just drift right into space

Up On The Roof
—James Taylor

This flame that burns inside of me
I'm hearing secret harmonies

It's a kind of magic

The bell that rings inside your mind
Is challenging the doors of time

It's a kind of magic
It's a kind of magic

A Kind Of Magic
—Queen

Know we both have our own little way
But somehow we keep it together
You hear me talk but you don't hear what I say
I guess it don't even matter

Blue morning, blue day
Won't you see things my way?
Blue morning, can't you see
What your love has done to me?

Blue Morning, Blue Day
—Foreigner

Make sure you walk it “half fast”…😉

You could never know what it's like
Your blood like winter freezes just like ice
And there's a cold lonely light that shines from you
You'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use

I’m Still Standing
—Elton John

Roger Glover—bassist, lyricist, producer (Deep Purple, Rainbow, etc. etc.)

Never forget that we are each Somebody!

…appreciate great music! 😊

We'll be together
With a roof right over our heads
We'll share the shelter
Of my single bed

We'll share the same room, yeah
For Jah provide the bread
Is this love? Is this love? Is this love?
Is this love that I'm feeling?

Is This Love
—Bob Marley

Molotov cocktail - the local drink
And all she wants to do is dance, dance

Mix em up right, in the kitchen sink
And all she wants to do is dance....

Crazy people walkin' round with blood in their eyes
And all she wants to do is dance, dance

All She Wants To Do Is Dance
—Don Henley

Now the feelin'
Is beginning to GROW
And the meaning
Is somethin' you only know
If you believe it
Take my hand, and I'll take your heart
Come on

Do You Believe In Love
—Huey Lewis And The News

Thank you for the follow as well. It takes some self-reflection to inhibit my snarkiness once in groupthink mode, which may be why some of my song choices to Monica have a little more color to them!

I would be good with all governors having a podcast so we can discern who can actually think…🙄

Ahhh, that midnight dreary… 👍👏👏👊🏻

Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, Jojo
Go home

Get Back
—The Beatles

I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know we'll never keep

Too many men, there's too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go 'round
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?

Land of Confusion
—Genesis
