Day 23: A song you love that's an opening track of an album

I have so many stories about this album. I got it the year it came out. My mom bought it for me because I believe it had a parental advisory sticker if I'm not mistaken. I put it in the little CD player we had at the time in the living room and this song was looooooud! I loved it! My mom was like, "I'm so sorry. I didn't know this album was going to be so loud." I was not mad at all. 😆

Back when you could put CDs in cars... I would forget to turn down the volume and the CD player off before turning the car off. This song at high volume when you turn your car on could wake you up and scare the crap out of you. 😅

Side story... does anybody remember NBC doing a television movie with Shannen Doherty (Friends 'till The End) and they used at least one Cranberries song? Shannen lipsynced it. So bizarre! 😜

Hollywood - Cranberries

I swiped this album from my older sister when it came out, and it has been a favorite ever since. Right from the first song, Magic Man... they melted my little brain. Soooo cool! Ann and Nancy Wilson have been an inspiration for me ever since. 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Heart - Magic Man

This went a little long, and I didn't want another wall of text, so I recorded it.

"Secondhand News," Fleetwood Mac


I am self-reporting. I mention another song that which doesn't fit the prompt, but still violates The One Rule. (I will accept a spanking rather than rerecording that all).


Unless someone else wants to spank me...

Just like you to swipe something from your sister!

The absolute pivot this masterpiece took Radiohead on 🤩

Incredible opener to announce an evolution.

Everything in it's right place - Radiohead

(Also kind of sad for kids these days who don't experience the same kind of friction we did to access new music and as a result experience it differently...)
 
Day 24: A song with lyrics you love

Hoooo boy. This is a tough one. What to choose?
I think I'll take today to introduce @UnquietDreams to some more of Tobi Sammet's genius!

A million pointing fingers
have turned to clapping hands
Now I'm off to Betty Ford
see you in hell, my friends!

Pardon fucking me,
who the fucking fuck is Jesus?
motherfucking New Messiah
for the fucking world


Edguy - New Age Messiah
