| Tim Hardin – Black Sheep Boy Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
from Wikipedia: "Hardin's song, "Black Sheep Boy", apparently tells the story about himself returning to his heroin addiction. The song is said to thematize a visit to his family which caused said relapse after he got offered heroin by a local, after he had been clean for a longer time. ...He sold his writers' rights in the late 1970s. Tim Hardin died of a heroin overdose in 1980,[7] and his remains are buried in the Twin Oaks Cemetery in Turner, Oregon." I think it is a sad song of self-knowledge. ' ...the family's unowned boy ....Golden curls of envied hair'. He had it all except the love of his family, a vacuum which probably led to his overdose. Substance addiction and a health family life don't coexist. |
