I've seen Ben Vaughn perform live twice. First in 1986 (he opened for of all bands...Soul Asylum) and again about a year later. Just awesome and a really nice guy. Ben, you rock!
Ben is responsible for the theme song for That 70's Show being Big Star's "In The Street". It must have helped Alex Chilton (who was helped by another Minneapolis band - the Replacements, who had the song "Alex Chilton" on their album "Pleased To Meet Me".
This song for some reason makes me feel better. Like... they are some people who have the same issue as me. That's comforting. And the chill in this song is amazing!
Saw the Ben Vaugh Combo play a number of times, mid 80s at Gerde's Folk City before it closed. Always a lot fun. They had a bass player Aldo Jones, I always got a kick out of having a buddy in High School named Aldo Smith
I think that Ben was responsible for Big Star's "In The Street" being the theme song for 'That 70's Show'. Probably helped Alex Chilton a lot. My friend, Richard Meltzer, received $.25 every time Blue Oyster Cult's 'Burnin' For You' was played on the radio. He said that those quarters added up to a decent sum.
Ev'ry day starts with a broken heart I must be too sensitive for this world Well I know it ain't right to cry ev'ry night I must be too sensitive for this world And the world is such a careless place It's a wonder, hummm it's a wonder It's a wonder Anyone survives The clouds in the sky just make me cry I must be too sensitive for this world I don't think I can last until these bad times pass I must be too sensitive for this world Solo And the world is such a careless place The world is such a selfish place And life is such an awful fate It's a wonder, hummm it's a wonder It's a wonder Anyone survives I must be (Too sensitive for this world) I gotta be (Too sensitive for this world) Sing it one time (Too sensitive for this world) Sing it two times (Too sensitive for this world) Sing it for your friends (Too sensitive for this world) Sing it for your friends again (Too sensitive for this world) ---

A musical genius! Such a masterpiece of a song. And so much feeling in his soul and in the song. I love your music Ben!

What are the lyrics
Ev'ry day starts with a broken heart
I must be too sensitive for this world
Well I know it ain't right to cry ev'ry night
I must be too sensitive for this world
And the world is such a careless place
It's a wonder, hummm it's a wonder
It's a wonder
Anyone survives
The clouds in the sky just make me cry
I must be too sensitive for this world
I don't think I can last until these bad times pass
I must be too sensitive for this world
Solo
And the world is such a careless place
The world is such a selfish place
And life is such an awful fate
It's a wonder, hummm it's a wonder
It's a wonder
Anyone survives
I must be
(Too sensitive for this world)
I gotta be
(Too sensitive for this world)
Sing it one time
(Too sensitive for this world)
Sing it two times
(Too sensitive for this world)
Sing it for your friends
(Too sensitive for this world)
Sing it for your friends again
(Too sensitive for this world)
