A Song for Everything

[PicassosPleasure]

Song about famous (not infamous) character, real or fictional

I've got this one!

Song about an artist

 

[BrendaBear]

I've tried to post this song like three times today but I keep getting beaten! Glad it finally made a showing.

Really? Wow! That’s kind of cool!

Primm is nobody's destination. What a dump.

But it has an infamous 33 Ford. Or was it a 35? I think it was a 33. Anyway, that is enough for me.

Maybe head down to Baker and hit up the Bun Boy or the Mad Greek. If those places still exist.

I don’t know anything about Baker, doesn’t sound interesting to me. Heading north to Hurricane would be much more interesting.

Josh Groban - Vincent
I went to this concert, what a blast from the past!

Night

Lawless

You're missing out on the world's tallest thermometer...especially in the summer. The Mad Greek is legendary, too, and was still there the last time I drove through before COVID.

Upon further consideration, if I had some time and a car that I didn't mind driving on gravel for a few miles, I'd head to Zzyzx. It's a real place, not just the wierdest highway offramp in America. Someone please go and tell me what it's like!

 

[DirkCamacho]

Lawless

Shooting the sheriff is pretty lawless

self defense

 

[PicassosPleasure]

Lawless

The guy in the song was born the son of a lawless man. Myself, I was born the son of a law enforcement officer.

Fast draw Dirk beat me too it.

Self-defense

Hmmm… a gravel road huh? Not a bad drive for a newly purchased Jeep….

Oh darn… Zzyzx rd says it is permanently closed.

self defense

Self-defense classes came to mind along with this song. Call me "Grasshopper" if you must, but I liked it when it first came out.

Such a cool song! Excellent choice!

Fighting

This song is about three Hawaiian Sumo wrestlers, who were famous in Japan and revered in Hawaii. Sung by the famous Iz.

A tribute to a hero

 

[DirkCamacho]

Oh darn… Zzyzx rd says it is permanently closed.

I dunno man, the NPS website shows it open as of April, and google maps has no problem routing me on it. That doesn't mean it's actually open, but it *might* be.

A tribute to a hero

How about a ship full of heroes. Being a Navy veteran I like songs about naval battles and this is a long-time favorite that predates my time in the Navy.

Song about a ship or ships

Voyages

 

[PicassosPleasure]

Voyages

First song that comes to mind. I love the detailed description in the opening lyrics. Sorta makes me feel like I'm sailing with them.

Journeys

 

[DirkCamacho]

Journeys

I’ve posted this song before and I’ll probably post it again because I love it.

Journeys

Speaking of songs I love... (yeah, there a lots)...

Blues Image - Ride Captain Ride

Ship / Boat (theme)

 

[PicassosPleasure]

Ship / Boat (theme)

This ex-submariner will go with a boat (submarines are not called ships). "Life in Dark Waters" can be strange indeed, but this sole survivor aboard a sunken submarine (?) must really be having a strange life, as short as it will be.

Song about a specific airplane

 

[DirkCamacho]

Song about a specific airplane

They refer to space rocket ships as airplanes, don’t they?

Rocket

 

[PicassosPleasure]

Who are they? Pretty thin if you ask me.

Rocket

They call other things "rockets," too. "Crotch rockets" is one example.

Balloon(s)

 

[BrendaBear]

Balloon(s)

Wouldn't you like to fly? In my beautiful balloon??

The 5th Dimension - Up, Up and Away

Sky

 

[DirkCamacho]

Who are they? Pretty thin if you ask me.

I could be a they, couldn't I?

BTW did you have anything mind when you asked for a song about a specific airplane? The only thing I could think of was Snoopy and the Bloody Red Baron, but that song didn't qualify.

 

[DirkCamacho]

Sky

I love the Fifth Dimension!

The last time the prompt was Sky I posted the old song "Blue Skies". So this time I'll post the other "Blue Sky."
