    I wish music like this was still made. Days gone by....

      Nowadays... to be like that means to go through a load of shit... Most people just go with the flow and the ones showing heart become outsiders and are kinda getting blamed for being like that.
      Money and fame rule the WHOLE world, human heart and instincts matter less and less.
      It's just my opinion but I'm pretty sure of it - Day X will come...

    If you miss the train I'm on, you will know that I am gone
    You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
    A hundred miles, a hundred miles
    A hundred miles, a hundred miles
    You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
    Not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name
    And the land that I once loved was not my own
    Lord I'm one, Lord I'm two, Lord I'm three, Lord I'm four
    Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home
    A hundred tanks along the square
    One man stands and stops them there
    Some day soon, the tide will turn, and I'll be free
    I'll be free, I'll be free, I'll come home to my country
    Some day soon the tide will turn and I'll be free
    If you miss the train I'm on, you will know that I am gone
    You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
    Lord I'm one, Lord I'm two, Lord I'm three, Lord I'm four
    Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home
    Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home

      @ericbrokl7451 10 років тому +15

      Every generation is cookie cutter. Most labels play it safe by making the same music until that sound is wore out. Agree the Hooters didn't get their due. But maybe that's why we dug them and still do. The Hooters were a bit on the edge of the status quo. And honestly that's where I am, on the outside looking in. Music needs to reach our soul to impact us or we just stick with the fad music and switch to whatever everyone else is listening to. I agree with you 100% my friend.

      The communist government butchered ALL of them who standed up for democracy. Yet, all we hear about is the "Tank man" photo. They virtually wiped that whole abortion of a situation from their history. But when people stand together that's the only way things can change.
      That's why they DIVIDE and CONQUOR us.
