OK - here is a GREAT song - a new-era protest song
Edited on Sat Oct-13-07 08:45 PM by Phoebe Loosinhouse
I originally thought so at first and recommended it as such, then took down my post because I misunderstood one line in the lyric and now I am re-posting.

posted, deleted and then highly edited and reposted and reposted again.

5. All of a sudden , I realized maybe the song wasn't saying what I initially thought it was
The verse-

I shot a guy in Soho . . .

I heard it, I loved it, but maybe I need to listen more.

It's not that it's not a great song, it absolutely is. But I took it as a protest song and now I think it's more like "Taxi Driver" I could be wrong, but that's why I took down my post.

6. That's not what the lyric says.
Look on the guts web site. I found it in 2 min

"They shot a man in Soho
Couldn't guess his age
I found his empty journal
I filled up every page"

9. Boy, I certainly feel like her right now.
You're very gracious. I hope people will overlook my errors and just listen to the damn song.

11. Oh, no worries!
I just arose for a glass of water and checked my post.

No, I like the song - many times the lyrics are hard to discern. Heaven knows my mother would have trashed all my Stones and Led Zeppelin albums during the 70s - if it wasn't for this cool fact. :blush: ;)

Have a good one! :hi:
