Today's Music Thing
The Top Five on Friday, brought to you by The Music Memoirs.
Top five songs with a name in the title.
Kayleigh by Marillion
I never meant to break your heart, but you broke mine.
Jack vs. José by Roger Clyne & the Peacemakers
Just a bit of advice: when you stumble into a saloon in Memphis, don’t order tequila.
Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds by The Beatles
Sorry, John and Paul, but we all knew what this song was really about the whole time.
Tom Sawyer by Rush
Hey, it's the only Rush song most people are likely ever to have heard, so I had to include it.
Mariano by Robert Earl Keen
The music and the lyrics reinforce one another in telling a rather sad story. Beautifully crafted.

You're referring to the fact that Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds was based on a picture drawn by John's son, right?

Yes yes, I've heard all that before. John doth protest too much, methinks.
Besides, Curtis, didn't you tell me recently that you heard an interview with John where he essentially confirms all the rumors?
