Julian Lennon "Too Late For Goodbyes" (1984) I totally think this song could pass as an early Beatles song. I prefer this song to most of Paul's solos 🤷🏻‍♀️ From his album, Valotte. Reached #5 on the US singles chart.

Maybe it’s how fast they recorded it, maybe it’s the nervous energy of making their first album. Maybe it’s John’s cold! Or maybe it’s like rewatching a classic film, and we now know how this whole story ends. But, in both sound and feeling, there is no Beatles album like it.

The words- the lyrics to a pop song- totally matter, every word, every nuance. It’s not that they don’t matter, it’s that they matter in context with the music, the complete picture, the SONG. Poems are words alone, Lyrics are part of a song. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@d_herring I had a friend in DC who wrote songs for his band. He was stressing over a particular word in a middle verse. I told him, "That's ok; no one listens to the words, anyway." I've never seen anyone look so disappointed, and I regret having said that to him, 40 years later.

The only term I have for it is corny, but… There are only two guitarists of the Rock Era who could touch the sky. Who could leave the realm of tethered to how things are and get untethered, into the rarified air above. And they were Jimi Hendrix and Duane Allman.
