Poll question: He came from somewhere back in her long ago

[wildhorses]

1. ahhhh... the doobie brothers

Michael mcdonald/kenny loggins

He came from somewhere back in her long ago
The sentimental fool don’t see
Tryin’ hard to recreate
What had yet to be created once in her life

She musters a smile
For his nostalgic tale
Never coming near what he wanted to say
Only to realize
It never really was

She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
He’s watching her go

But what a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
And nothing at all keeps sending him...

Somewhere back in her long ago
Where he can still believe there’s a place in her life
Someday, somewhere, she will return

She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
He’s watching her go

But what a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
There’s nothing at all
But what a fool believes he sees...

2. Oooooo-Doobies.

I might have to download some today. I just have them on album.
Yes, someone still listens to albums!

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

4. Yes- MORE ALBUMS!!!

Hang those who speak of less!

[xmas74]

5. We have a nice little shop downtown

where I can pick them up dirt cheap. They know me by name and call whenever someone trades in something interesting. They also do used cd's but I prefer the albums. I like the pops and other noises and I love looking at the covers.

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

6. Can I call upon you for my vinyl needs?

[xmas74]

10. Yes you may.

If there is anything you're looking for, let me know. These guys love vinyl as much as I do and are willing to search for it.
We drool over each others collections all the time.

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

11. Awesome!

7. Am a HUGE Doobies fan!

Started going to their concerts back in the early '70s when they were doing concerts here in the San Joaquin Valley.

Saw them just a year ago, met them a few years back. Really wonderful people!

[RandomKoolzip]

18. I heard that song in my childhood dreams...sung by a man named

Christopher Cross.... you must take that name....

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

20. Koko - NO!!!!

[redqueen]

22. only to realize....

That's a much better earworm than the Huey Lewis some bastard cursed me with earlier, so thanks!

:thumbsup:

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

23. Don't mention it, Lovie!

:D

[hfojvt]

26. so little kindness

baby that's too bad.

It's not hip to be square? :cry:

or is it just that sometimes 'bad' is bad?

[redqueen]

27. Whaaaa?

Sorry! If you dig the News man, that's OK by me! I was only complainin' because someone put that song "If this is it" in my head... TOO catchy!

[hfojvt]

28. hmmm...that is pretty bad

but I was just trying to be an evil tease :evilgrin:

You know, the kind of person who, when he hears someone complain about a Huey Lewis earworm, promptly mentions three Huey Lewis songs. "So little kindness", "Hip to be square" and "sometimes 'bad' is bad"

It does seem, sometimes that 95% of the lounge egregiously disapproves of 90% of my favorite music but I probably feel the same way about theirs, so we are even.

"If this is it" seems so apropo to me. I should have thought of it when I was writing to the girl I was recently in a quasi-relationship with.

[Strong Atheist]

24. I always wondered what the H*** this song meant ... nt.

[wildhorses]

29. I think it is a break up song...

but, as in everything...it is open to interpretation.

what does it say to YOU???

[Strong Atheist]

30. It says the singer was incoherent ... nt.

[Left Is Write]

31. Unrequited love - he loved her; she never even acknowledged his existence.

[no name no slogan]

25. This song also appears on a Kenny Loggins record

IIRC Kenny and Michael cowrote it.
