Hey Glen, you really do have my sympathy. That can’t be easy. However, look deep within yourself, self-reflect and consider: did I try hard enough. Anyone who is into the Velvets, Sparks and the mighty Beach Boys (Kokomo included) is surely a keeper and worth fighting for!
Sad to hear about that. Just to let you know that we are here to support you. We are a community, we won't let you down, Glen. I know we do not have a lot of connections you and I, but if there is anything else i can do for you, let me know. If you need to "refresh your ideas" as we say in French, come to Montréal, we'll have a Coffee and talk because this is what friends do. Cheers, FVA
You need a dose of I Can Hear Music and Venus in Furs played back to back for the rest of the week and your stubbornness will be cured and the divorce will be avoided - simple. Never underestimate the power of the two greatest songs of all time 👍🏽
Keep strong Glen, happened to me about 20 years ago, we still get along, my life since then has been great, still have a family bond, with my kids. Life goes on Glen, you will need time. Time heals after awhile I found!
Glen, I got halfway through the video waiting for the punchline and began wondering if there was one. But as soon as you said, ”Lou Reed” I knew, “Ah, here we go!”
High time you listen to several Loudon Wainwright III records. Unhappy Anniversary for instance But there are lots of other songs of his who might put a smile on your face in these tragic times .
WELL DONE "RICHARD SIMMONS!?" But it's hard if not impossible to have sympathy for a guy who publicly admits that his BFF is the CSM!! RUN.....DON'T WALK!!
@@GlenKellawayfromthebasement BRAVO! And again KUDOS for a STELLAR performance!! Content & presentation was extremely convincing!! Can't believe your "partner" didn't accuse you of.....wait for it......RAZOR BURN!! 🖤
This really hurt to hear.. especially since I took you seriously. Damn you, Glen! You are the greatest actor since Robert DeNiro and Richard Simmons. By the way, you truly need to listen to the 50th anniversary CD of Pet Sounds. Remember when you didn't like Genesis much and now you are a fan? This will happen to you if you take a chance and listen to side 2 of Surf's Up!!! I'm so upset right now that I am going to go live in a few minutes. 😄
I'm pretty sure Ween was the final straw. He's probably instigating the breakup to sue you for half your music collection. Actually, now that I think of it, you can probably quell the Lou Reed and Beach Boys obsession by buying him a copy of The Surfsiders "Sing the Beach Boy's Songbook" for revenge. It's shitty covers of Beach Boys songs with Reed singing background and lead vocals. His version of Little Douce Coupe seems to repeat forever. And how can you mess up the guitar intro to Fun, Fun, Fun as badly as they do?
Uh-oh! My wife is absolutely perfect in every way but one - she doesn't like Ian Hunter's music, whereas I am fanatical. But I do catch her out at times. I surreptitiously play an Ian Hunter track she doesn't know, and she'll say, "That's nice. Who's that?" And I'll say, "Gotcha! That's Ian Hunter. And what do you mean 'nice'? Didn't you mean to say 'epic'?" Perhaps I'll do less of that in the future because I've been to marriage counselling and it's a full hour of you ripping into each other's music tastes. But, if you have to go, I suggest you go to Las Vegas and hire an Elvis impersonator as your counsellor. So, when you snipe at your wife's taste for The Beach Boys - which I would regard as grounds for irreconcilable musical differences with absolutely anyone - he'll just turn to you and sing, "Don't you love her tender?" Just try not to get a Morrissey impersonator or even Elvis Costello. Now, on to future letters in your standout alphabet game with Rich Stickler ... Firstly, it's going to take me a week to type out all the stellar songs beginning with S. Secondly, I'm making a mental note not to mention either 'Wasted Time' or 'Walk on the Wild Side' under W. Dammit, Glen! Those were my best Ws. Or not. As ever, the great Ian Hunter can crush all the opposition, this time with the magnificent 'Waterlow,' which, serendipitously, is about the effects of divorce on children. And I now have my 113th S, because he wrote 'Sons and Daughters' about the same subject. I was going to give Ian a pass on the Ss, but 'Standing in my light' was already testing my resolve, and then Barry Manilow phoned up the other day and said, "Don't forget 'Ships.' " Well, it's not my favorite Ian Hunter song, but it's like that thing - "Don't think about pink elephants."
You realize this was directed at my best bud ever..Larry Graves..My wife hates listening to Tom Waits and Bob Dylan..even counciling won’t help her with that..Ships and Standing In My Light are great IH songs but sorry..not even close to top ten..
I can imagine your wife doesn't like Tom Waits or Bob Dylan. I don't know any women who do. I was reading comments on a Led Zeppelin song on UA-cam, and a woman posted something, and all the men went, "You're a woman and you like Led Zep? How cool!" like they had never seen a woman before. Women generally like standard rock voices, preferably accompanied by the long, flowing, blond curls of a rock god, like Roger Daltrey. Whether they like The Who's music is another matter, but none of them is voting for Pete Townshend to be the lead singer in the way that Sea of Tranquility contributors might. And the ultimate in flowing, golden rock god looks are Def Leppard, one of the very few heavy rock bands to have a majority female fan base, given that there are three of them, closely followed, I guess, by Queen and The Police. Well, Joe Elliott and Brian May do seem to be the nicest guys in rock, so that may count for something. As for all this top ten nonsense - which music enthusiast only likes ten songs, or even albums? I have 200 Ian Hunter songs I consider fabulous, with another 200 from Bob Dylan, and at least fifty from The Beatles, Bruce Springsteen, Leonard Cohen, Jethro Tull and Roger Chapman. Then at least 25 from Pink Floyd (long songs), The Rolling Stones, The Grateful Dead, Kevin Coyne and The Doors. Hell, I could do ten from Led Zeppelin, and they are nowhere near the top of my favorite bands. The pleasure of your Alphabet Game with Rich Strickler is remembering all the great music I love, I have forgotten, and some that I never knew. You guys keep quoting Tom Petty songs. I knew nothing about them until recently - I confused him with Iggy Pop - so there was another stash. Ten? Maybe in the Qs where I can only think of two of them.
Everybody’s taking this way too lightly! Nobody’s even thinking who’ll get the good records in the settlement! 😢
They are all mine anyway..Larry doesn’t have any good records…lol..
@@GlenKellawayfromthebasement Understood! But which one of ya gets Sam St. John? He’ll be devastated!
You so had me til almost the end! You are brilliant my friend! Haha! Love your videos and your music is fab!
lol…thank you so much Franco❤❤❤👍
lol I don’t even know Glen…but am an avid watcher of VC content, and I got that this was a spoof about half way through…great video Glen.🤣🤣🤣
Wow..thank you❤❤❤👍
Hey Glen, you really do have my sympathy. That can’t be easy. However, look deep within yourself, self-reflect and consider: did I try hard enough. Anyone who is into the Velvets, Sparks and the mighty Beach Boys (Kokomo included) is surely a keeper and worth fighting for!
lol..I am having second thoughts..
I know the feeling Glen.Got divorced many years ago but it was heart breaking.Praying for you my friend keep your chin up
lol..thank you..but.you may have missed something..
@@GlenKellawayfromthebasement Wouldn't be the first time Glen lol
It's just going to leave more of that awesome person's greatness for me!!! You can't handle that level of friendship!
lol…he’s all yours now Morris..be careful..watch out for his Ween…

Thanks FVA..I am a good actor..this is about Larry Graves..
Hang in there Glen! It hurts now but in time your heart will mend. I will be praying for you as you find closure in this.
Thanks..I think you need to watch the entire video..though
OK Glen you had me for a minute but I knew you couldn't be that much of a knuckle head,best post since your early press conference days😂😂👍
Now that is saying something…those were my favourites..
You need a dose of I Can Hear Music and Venus in Furs played back to back for the rest of the week and your stubbornness will be cured and the divorce will be avoided - simple. Never underestimate the power of the two greatest songs of all time 👍🏽
You must have meant Venus and Mars and Can’t You Hear Me Knockin’
Keep strong Glen, happened to me about 20 years ago, we still get along, my life since then has been great, still have a family bond, with my kids. Life goes on Glen, you will need time. Time heals after awhile I found!
Roy..I am not getting divorced..it was a joke on Larry Graves love of The Beach Boys..but I appreciate your support..
@@GlenKellawayfromthebasement You’re a good actor Glen!
I hope consoling helps. Good luck Glen.
Lots of hugs..
Glen, I got halfway through the video waiting for the punchline and began wondering if there was one. But as soon as you said, ”Lou Reed” I knew, “Ah, here we go!”
That was the moment..
High time you listen to several Loudon Wainwright III records. Unhappy Anniversary for instance But there are lots
of other songs of his who might put a smile on your face in these tragic times .
Loudon is great
Life's just too short to spend it unhappy. You have my support.
Elliott..lol..I think you missed something..
@@GlenKellawayfromthebasement no I got it 😂✌️
Hi Glen!!! let's hope your significant other doesn't watch this video..... you're going to get in trouble!!! cheers and be well
lol…I am keeping her away..
ha! 😊😄 Someone needs to send you "The Pet Sounds Sessions" box set. 😁🤣
That is just cruel
@@GlenKellawayfromthebasement I think, presented with the raw vocals and backing tracks, you would "get" 'Pet Sounds".
Thoughts with you my friend. It’s not easy. 💙
It was a video about my relationship with Larry Graves..but I appreciate your kindness.
@@GlenKellawayfromthebasement don’t scare me like that 😻
I do like The Velvet Underground and Pet Sounds, so I think the alimony should be set pretty high.
Which one of us is getting the alimony..I wonder if I get half his subscribers in the settlement..
Chin up, maybe one day Sparks will come back to you
Never say never Sam..
I think you played this too straight Glen. Not everyone got it. Lou and the Beach Boys irrational behaviour 😂
I know!!!
I don’t blame you Glen
maybe you could ask Mike Love to mediate the separation
You’ll always be married to the music !!
Had me until about the 5 minute mark 😂
Awesome…
Me too 😇
WELL DONE "RICHARD SIMMONS!?" But it's hard if not impossible to have sympathy for

Canadian stud muffins dry humor.
He is a big influence..
Beach Boys M.I.U. rules!!!!
It’s a surfing’ boy band..get over it 🤬🤬🤬🤬❤
@@GlenKellawayfromthebasementlol
Well done Glen. It was time. It was bordering on elder abuse, in my opinion. And you didn't even mention Topographic Oceans.
lol..that would have been too painful to talk about..
Don't give me any ideas!

@@GlenKellawayfromthebasement I need to think things over... you need The Beach Boys in your life!
@@GlenKellawayfromthebasement "OH......the humanity!"

That has to be the worst album of all time..
@@GlenKellawayfromthebasement You have listened to Sparks, right?
I can help you Glen. You need a healthy dose of Forever Changes. Arthur Lee and company will set you free!
He never abused me with that one..
I caught him with two other men. Lol!!!!!!
Sam st john Beach Boys vid
@@bobf.5538 and me!!!!
Home wrecker !! ❤❤❤❤❤
LOL!!!
God says that is permissible divorce when your partner is caught in the act of adultery
Well..he was caught red handed.
It's too bad that your livestream with your sweetheart came up on my timeline before I'd seen this video. It's still funny, though.
That’s too bad…gave away the plot..
Glen, has it come down to using the clickbait for your videos???? The smirk on your face told it all!!!!
Oh yeah..I am a shallow individual..
Kokomo is awesome 😅
Larry can have complete custody of you Jack..
That's great Jack !!
