if u dare

thanks for listetning to this song

cool song

yeah

this song is one uv a kind

that's for sure

That was NICE!

Am I the only one here who still has this song in album form on vinyl?

Lol SueZ. Could be! I didn't even realize this song was so old, until I looked it up. 1973!

Hm. My last comment could be taken the wrong way. Not intended certainly, since I'm much older than the song myself.
Advanced age has merit! We're still here because we did something right! (Maybe not everything)

Lol. I just thought you were younger and didn't realize that hippy look was the original one.

*Ahem* It's spelled hippie, even in the singular.

Thank you for that! It was beautifully tender. Funnily enough, I happened to drink a lot of Jim Croce yesterday. Afterward, I nibbled on some Dan Fogelberg, sipped a bit of John Denver, and feasted on Bread, some of whose music I especially had 3 servings each of "Aubrey" and "Diary". Today I'll blend some Immortal Technique, George Strait, Barbara Streisand and Marc Anthony...Superfood indeed!

hi kola




thanks for enjoying the superfood!

My music too, my time. Actually love getting older in years.
Too bad so many of these artists are no longer with us.

so here is the lyrics to the " i know its kinda late..." song

really nice to read

[www.azlyrics.com]

i'm no expert in croce's music
truth be known this is the only song of his that i really like ( don't shoot me.. its just the only song i really connect with)

i listened to his other songs recently ( checked them out on youtube to be exact)
and a lot of them were really sad and made me teary

then there were two ( junkyard dog and car wash song)
that made me laugh

but the " i know its kinda late.." song

that one i like very much

and i'm not sure why exactly

it just seems really innocent and awesome and kinda incredible
in a lot of ways
like " wow.. where did this song come from?"

its so simple and hestitating and it just says it all

i could listen to this all day
i read in wikipedia recently ( yeah, that's where i got info on him)
that he died in a plane crash

made me feel sad

but this song somehow sounds very strong
even though this guy is gone

i wonder if he floats in the clouds somewhere
and connects and smiles to those who like this one song

anyhoo

thanks all for drinking some harmonics with me
superfood tastes good when shared with many

clink clink

I like "Operator." Do watch the one where he's with the other dude on guitar. They did a whole show, it was live obviously and it sounds just like the record. Exquisite.

banana who

i did not watch the one u mentioned

but that operator song is really a bummer

so sad

you can keep the dime

but i must agree with you banana who

in that the song IS "exquisite"

in that it has the power to greatly affect

it makes me feel very sad
like a very rainy blue day listening to that song lol


its like listening to a guy barely containing his ocean of tears and sadness
while trying to maintain his composure by casually telling his story to an operator


exquisite nonetheless

The children laughing in the song I posted above reminded me of when I go out of town to the river and I hear children playing in the water, they're laughing and when I'm in town by the pool and I hear children playing in the water, they're screaming. Interesting contrast between Nature and Chemicals.
