| Jimmy Buffett – Volcano Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Anyone here over the age of 30? The song was written following an eruption of a Carribean volcano. Soufriere Volcano on St Vincent erupted in 1979 but was not explosive. Soufriere Volcano on the isalnd of Guadalope in 1976-1977. The eruption was explosive versus just steam and lava. This Buffet was referring to sitting around writing and singing songs when an explosive volcano eruption occurs...and he didn't want to be blown by it to various places around the world. Other current events were mentioned...notably Three Mile Island and the rise of Ayatollah Khoneini in Iran in 1979. |
