The Music Thread: Songs That Are Invalid
Okay...that's settled. Below the fold are a couple of songs that are flawed. Illogical. Incorrect. If you can think of any others, mention them in the comments and the best one will win a Two Year Platinum membership with Troll-B-GonTM! The ampersand utility is on the fritz, so that isn't part of the deal. Sorry.
It doesn't get much better than Johnny Cash in his prime, and Folsom Prison Blues is one of his better songs.
But he killed a man in Reno, which the last time I checked was in Nevada, and he is in prison in Folsom California? Sorry, but that would never happen so the song is invalid.I like old U2.
.
.
.
Now that you have stopped laughing their first few albums are pretty good. The 1980s were good to them, and even into the 1990s with Achtung Baby they turned out some solid music and became a huge and successful band...and it all went to their heads, especially Bono's and that thoroughly pedestrian lead guitarist with the asshole name. But... A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle
U2's song, Tryin' To Throw Your Arms Around The World isn't bad, but that one line...that one really stupid, condescending, patronizing and objectively incorrect line makes the entire song worthless and invalid.
"She dreams in color she dreams in red"
Better Man Wow. Pearl Jam. What the hell does that mean? Which is it? Color...or red? Get it straight! Oh, I really don't like Pearl Jam. Last fall I spent several days in the car, and I played my music library set on random. Apparently I used to think Pearl Jam was good, but I found myself skipping all of their music. Anyone want to defend them?
And a few more songs from my playlist of the past few weeks... The Band. Not a large body of work, but there are some gems! Here is maybe their best one! The Weight
Van Morrison: Tupelo Honey
Chris Stapleton: Tennessee Whiskey Who? I heard this guy for the first time last night!

I kind of give them a pass. Just like early U2, like "Pride (In the Name Of Love)". That was before we knew what an insufferable ass Bono is.

The Rolling Stones' "Sister Morphine."
Johnny Cash's cover of Nine Inch Nails' "Hurt."
And John Prine's "Summer's End."
Then there is Bobby Braddock and Curley Putman's "He Stopped Loving Her Today," made real by George Jones, which I sing along with but don't play. I guess I should learn the guitar part for this one, too. No drug addiction, just death.
And "The Long Dark Veil" as done by The Band. Shit, that's a sad one too, about death.
What's the saddest song you know?

And John Prine's "Summer's End.
-
Man, that's a great and rough song. I can barely listen to it, much less watch the video. I'd say it's one of my favorite songs, I guess. And I can't listen to it.
Prine has quite a few deceptively sad songs. Souvenirs comes to mind.

Saw Braddock (Putnam is, alas, gone) a few years ago at the Rooster Stage, Hardly Strictly Bluegrass. There was nobody there and I walked right up and watched him play HSLHT on an electric piano.
Also, Long Black Veil has a death in it, but it's really just a love song, like HSLHT. Which also had a death in it. It's country so it's OKAY.

Yeah, that's always a strong contender. Great song, too.
I rarely like covers of songs I enjoy as much as that one, but Natalie Merchant did one that is pretty good. I think it was directly involved with the Cowboy Junkies somehow, so that might have something to do with it.

Sorry, CBD.
"Tupelo Honey" is invalid.
The lyrics "She's as sweet as Tupelo honey. Represents a factual error.
Honey is composed almost entirely of sugar. The human body is far less than even 5% sugar.
There is no way that "she" could be as sweet as Tupelo Honey even if she covered herself entirely in honey and Peeps.
This clearly absurd statement renders Van Morrison's "Tupelo Honey" not only invalid but absurd and ridiculous.

Annoy the model show judges, build an Me 262A-1a in those markings. Looks to be 74/75/76 camouflage with one Jumo 004B intake cover bare metal. No R4M rails under the wings. And because of how hazy the drawing is, it lacks the bulge on the gun bay doors to provide clearance for redesigned ammo feed chutes for the upper 30mm cannons.

Marillion's "Brave" concept album is a downer all the way through. It's about a suicidal girl about to jump off a bridge; different tracks jump back in time to tell her life story up to that point.
I'm ashes on the water now
Somewhere far away
You think you came here "just in time"
But you're twenty years too late!
....you won't have long to wait
The vinyl version has a double groove on the 4th side, with a happy ending where she doesn't jump, and a sad ending where she does.
Uncurl the fingers that hold...
Summon the strength to let go...

She's done two other solo (more or less) albums, both of which are fine, but Bavarian Fruit Bread is such a quiet, subtle, powerful masterpiece, it is a candidate for one my favorite albums of all time.

I liked the Steel Drivers as musical performers with and without Chris Stapleton better than Chris Stapleton solo.
It's not stated on Folsom Prison Blues that he's in the prison for shooting the man in Reno. Just that at some point before he was imprisoned in Folsom Prison, he had shot a man in Reno. (I've been to the Folding Prison gift shop.)
Technically, red is a color. So if she dreams in red, she is dreaming in color; that color is red. I can't defend Pearl Jam. I don't think they're very good.
My husband thinks the Allman Brothers were one of the greatest bands ever. He mad a pilgrimage Macon to visit the Big House, the cemetery, and where Duane's wreck happened. Tied to the Whipping Post is a great time.
Me, I love the Band. The Weight is fantastic. Had a crush on Robbie Robertson for decades.
Also love Van Morrison. Tupelo honey, Brown-Eyed Girl, Gloria, Moondance, Wild Night... Saw him in concert a couple of times. Eh.

Long ago and far away, when I was at UT. Jerry Jeff and his Lostt Gonzo band played in town all the time.
Great band. And though he only had one great album "Viva Terlingua!",he had a bunch of great songs.
Another of his albums I really like was the follow up to "VT", "Walker's Collectables'.
I guess I wass a majority of one cuz that album's never had a reprint on CD as far as I know. And just showed up on iTunes this year.

His politics are dumb, but, irl he's a regular guy.
Worked with a guy who had a band called The Ninth during his college days. Eddie Vedder (before anyone knew who he was) was a fan. Asked to join. Guy was like, nah brah...
His brother never let him forget that his band could have been on everyone's lips instead of Pearl Jam. To hear him tell it, Eddie still credits The Ninth as an early influence.

Same here, and lots of the stuff I've gotten into lately is quieter and quieter. Mostly female voices. Some which barely make it above a whisper.
I got more into women singing after my first wife died. She was a world class vocalist. Not a pop singer though, so getting to hear other women's voices was a way to get close enough, without getting too close. If that makes any sense.

How about a whole album?
I cried through the Jethro Tull Thick as a Brick II concert. Still can't bring myself to buy the CD or listen to it because it depressed me so much. I'm the same age as Gerald Bostock. The premise of TAB II is what happened the Gerald when he grew up? I knew what happened to me, and I never accomplished much. Gerald's "what ifs" as imagined by Ian Anderson were a range of "life is crap" to "not accomplishing anything resembling the potential he had at twelve." Like me.

Try Country Feedback. The song sounds so sad, and you kind of get the idea it's about a failed relationship, but the lyrics...???

It's an album about submariners and sub warfare / hide and seek written and performed by a cold war spook that was on a submarine and, iirc, went through the trouble of earning certain submariner requirements (dolphins? Sorry, I'm very out of my depth - ha- and just read a book about it all)
It's okay musically, but it's very good socially and historically. Heritage America. Some of you are 29 enough to remember it.

Same here, and lots of the stuff I've gotten into lately is quieter and quieter. Mostly female voices. Some which barely make it above a whisper.

I agree. Or just a "breathy" singing style, even if they're not really quiet about it.

Yeah... funny thing... I was a First Class when I got back from Desert Storm... and she got promoted to RMC. So went to her ceremony in Cracker Jacks (which pissed her off) Got introduced to her CO who saw a Gold Chevroned ET1 with 5 rows or ribbons, including things like 5 sea service... 3 Battle E's... multiple deployments... to expert rifle, and pistol...
And she had 3 ribbons... 1 for getting out of boot camp... a Navy Achievement Medal, and ONE Good Conduct (the I didn't get caught medal)...
CO just looked at me... shook his head... like there is something realllllyyyy wrong with this picture.

A lot of very cool stuff, with some surprisingly bland things as well. Bad Company's first album, with just the name--that was one of theirs. But otherwise they probably had the best album covers out there. (Anything labelled "Exotica" had some pretty great ones too.)

Grew up in Austin.
Saw Rush and Ted Nugent for $2 at the door at the 'Dillo. Rush opened. Saw Frank Zappa and Wille Nelson, together on stage, when Zappa was recording Bongo Fury live album.
Miss the $1 Shiner Beer pitchers and Tostados in the Beer Garden.

Standing in the graveyard grass
Staring down at the highway
Watching those big boys pass
Well he laid his hand upon me
And he prayed for quite some time
But I could barely understand the words he said
Behind that highway's whine
Then he handed me a faded photograph
He said he found it in my mama's hand
He said "Son I'm afraid that you and this picture
Were the best your Mama ever had"
Well I looked down at that picture
It was Mama and some guy
Standing in front of a semi-truck
"Just Married" painted on the side.

I said 'ok, do this this and this' She did as I said and made Chief next cycle. When she got back from her Med cruise and said she was thinking of moving out I agreed it was a good idea.

Vera Lynn "Till We Meet Again"
Oh I see the Chinese balloon has been shot down, after it transmitted everything it found.
Come on, even an Imperial Probe Droid did not last this long on Hoth.

Great album. Eagle fly free is great. One cover band I was in used to do helloween halloween from the part 1 album because the singer could actually sing it. We hammered that one, and did it last. it was the ultimate mike drop.

Thanks for posting that! Sounds like Hank might have been the writer.

Here are some of the happiest "sounding" songs you'll ever hear by The Housemartins.
But, the lyrics are a weird mix of Christianity and social Limey anger.
"Happy Hour"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVMq2OqPbNU
"We're Not Deep"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpaZyX6mNqk
"Five Get Over Excited"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qr4p9-l0iHE
Excellent driving music.

The really discomfiting aspect is that it's using the cord progression from Let It Be.
And with the Anime and Japanese girl singing it, it's some type of auditory horrorscape.

The heroic wife unshackles her husband's chains, the prisoners are freed and united with their loved ones, and justice is served.

Made no sense when Neil Young sang it, and makes less sense in a hockey game.

Boulder to Birmingham, or just about anything that Emmy Lou Harris does.
Oh My Sweet Carolina, by Ryan Adams (with Emmy Lou).
Fields of Gold, by Eva Cassidy. Sadder when you know she was dying when she sang it.

And what is "Best"? If "Best" refers to a moment in time, a strong case for Band of Gypsies on New Year's Eve, 1970. If "Best" as a catalog of work, candidates abound - Stones, The Who, Grateful Dead, Arrosmith, etc. If "Best" as iconic or legacy, there is only The Beatles.

You're (YOU) so vain, you probably think this song is about YOU.
Well, it is.

A couple other good bands to consider ...
Marshal Tucker
The Outlaws
I seem to be partial to good southern rock.

More than $15k can be earned online by performing straightforward tasks from home. In the previous month, I got $18376. Even a young child may do this job and make money because it is so simple to complete and has higher pay than typical office occupations.

How does Mount Olympus rise from the Serengeti?

Nah.
Kilimanjaro rises, like Olympus, above the Serengeti.
Olympus rises, just not above the Serengeti.
