| Billy Joel – And So It Goes Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
To write a song this deep, you MUST know what hurt is. The great songwriters have LIVED. That is the only way they can touch you so profoundly. What a piece life this song is! |

| Randy Newman – Louisiana 1927 Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Newman may just be the most effective composer of metaphorical prose in music history. "Ain't it a shame what the river has done to this poor crackers land." Just like Bush, Cooledge didn't get it. It was never about the river. The genious of Randy Newman is a national treasure. |

| Randy Newman – I Think It's Going To Rain Today Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
This song is different with every voice that sings it, but Newman's original version (his voice) is the way it was meant to be heard and captured. There is genious in not only it's composition and arrangement but also the way he delivers it - A simple voice telling you the way we treat people is not good enough. It is most simply one of the most powerful songs ever written. |
