| Held up by my chronic dilemma (!) - I just couldn't cut this more. Obviously, this one's deeply felt. I surrender!!! Hope you'll take it as is - but if it's too long, please feel free to edit. I only ask for 1 opportunity to proof final version for spelling/typos/grammar. Thanks! All Those Years Ago (1981) by George Harrison A definitive statement by George Harrison at John's Lennon's murder by "... the devil's best friend, someone who offended all" in December 1980. Few deserved consolation more than George; yet several months later he consoled us (with a little help from Ringo and Paul, also on the recording). It's as humbling to reflect upon how much John accomplished by the age of 40(!) - as it is stunning to ponder what might have been. May John and George rest in eternal peace. p.s. Tarty "gum on your shoe" History - you're amazing! __________________ Avi by a former Albanian c. 1980s. I wrote the pain down, got off and looked up. Looked into your eyes. The lost open windows all around; my dark heart lit up the skies. {..} Give up the ground under your feet. Hold on to nothing for good. Turn and run at the mean times chasing you. Stand alone and misunderstood. Now that I've worn ... I've worn out the world, I'm on my knees in fascination - looking through the night. And the moon's never seen me before, but I'm reflecting light!Last edited by KbatMO : 07-27-2008 at 02:53 PM. | |||

| Karen no not really. Remember we are trying to say why we think Scott will appreciate the song. Why we picked it for him. __________________ Avi by:Duke Proud Member of Scott Patterson's Fan Forum![]() 2009: The Place to Discuss all things Scott | |||

| I know! It's just with John Lennon as the subject, that much is self-evident!! I'm workin on it! ~~~ I don't know about any of you - but once you pass a certain age - and you realize you've lived longer than Marilyn, Elvis, John, Dr. King, et al. - it's freaky and truly humbling - and it just makes you think. Heck - James Dean, Buddy Holly - age 23, 22. That's my intent ... don't need to say "think!" to get there.... ~~~ Okay, here goes (!): George’s loving tribute to John Lennon consoled us all. Humbling to reflect how much John accomplished by age 40; stunning to ponder what might have been. May both rest in eternal peace. = 32 words (w/o title + artist) Hope it fits?!!!!! __________________ Avi by a former Albanian c. 1980s. I wrote the pain down, got off and looked up.

| Passionate Fan ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | This cover and the Pink Floyd cover are two which I got from NoGods. If she agrees with it, I send you both covers by mail. I try just some liner notes for: 1963: Roy Orbison - In Dreams 1969: Velvet Underground - Pale Blue Eyes 1999: Red Hot Chili Peppers – Californication 1980: Queen - Crazy Little Thing Called Love __________________ my Hero ![]() Her best move you can hurt me, break me, disrespect me, and make me feel like a total idiot.

| Ela, the cover is great! I love how you chose a similar style of lettering as the original's. Awesome! That makes four covers. I am working on Sgt. Pepper (although I couldn't this weekend). I'm going to need some time for that one because it's much more complicated. I will get time this week to devote quality hours to it, though. Quote:
Oh well, at least it was a good game. I'm eating a big bowl of crow as I watch right now hoping we can get one win from a homestand! Damn Yankees... Love your liner note, Kbat!__________________ "Dreyfus once wrote from Devil's Island that he would see the most glorious birds.
