[Old School Hound]

For my third song I've gone back and forth, back and forth between a song from my youth that takes me back to 12 years old or a song from one of my favorite albums(Boston's debut).

1974 was my favorite year of music. So many great songs came out that year. It was such a simple, carefree life for a kid of 12... no worries, just playing outside til daylight gave way to the sound of crickets and the sound of my mom hollering for us to get our asses home.   "Rock Me Gently,"  "Locomotion,"  "Sundown"  and  "Radar Love" played on the radio, and this timeless classic from Terry Jacks:


We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the stars we could reach
Were just starfish on the beach

We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song
Like the seasons have all gone

All our lives we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed
Were just seasons out of time




Honestly, the song is so sad that I probably would just go with a good ol' Boston song that would allow me to leave the world rockin' out to a good feelin' groove ... maybe "Don't Look Back,"   "Peace of Mind,"  or  "Long Time."

Yeah, it's been such a long time
I think I should be goin', yeah
And time doesn't wait for me
It keeps on rollin'    ...
