Here's one that he wrote for his wife when she was sick, such beautiful words:

I just Googled. She has/had Lyme Disease. So scary.

Woah. Good song, good lyrics.

 

[1 bruce 1]

Oh, those lyrics. I shouldn't laugh but to hell with it.

 

[maggiedemi]

Oh, those lyrics.

I was expecting a really serious song with that title! You fooled me.

 

[JamesCalifornia]

I remember this one!!! And sometimes think "it's 3AM and I must be hungry" when I do a midnight snack raid on the fridge.

~ I hope it's a salad ... or popcorn

 

[AbbysMom]

Holy cow, we forgot all about this video and song and are losing it!! That teacher needs some serious sedatives!

So I was going to say that I had this on vinyl, but it's actually Quiet Riot I have on vinyl. How about that one?

I just love Tracy Chapman. I saw her in concert back in the summer of 1988...what a very talented singer.

Fast Car

I had the Fast Car album on either cassette or vinyl. I know I wore it out. I still know every word to Fast Car and just about every other song on that album...

Since my High School years were in the 80's and I am a big 80's music fan, here are a few of my favorite Christmas ones -



Also, as @Kat0121 has mentioned, Heat Miser is the best.

 

[AbbysMom]

I hope it's a salad

Salad could kill you.

AbbysMom I had that one on CD. In fact I've still got it. My dad had us buy CDs by then 1988? I did have it on cassette tape that was bootlegged. I think CD walkmans were just starting to make an appearance but they skipped real bad. So I used cassette tapes on my bike rides and CDs at home.

I knew every song lyric on that album too. It was a fantastic CD/reccord wasn't it?!

 

[AbbysMom]

It really was. I am going to have to dig out the vinyl at some point and see what I have.

 

[foxxycat]

Now to play Tracy Chapman self titled CD.

 

[foxxycat]

Tracy Chapman put out a Christmas album and looks some of her hits on this one too.

 

[foxxycat]

Telling Stories by Tracy Chapman...I think this song was before it's time but now is relevant in our social media time.

I still have a lot of stuff on vinyl. Monkees, Billy Squire, Zeppelin, Floyd, but the oldest I have is Elvis - Harum Scarum.

One of my favorite Christmas song's, I'm not putting up here (once you hear it, you'll know why). But look it up on youtube. Paul Simon and Steve Martin's Silver Bells.

 

[foxxycat]

Love this song

If Not Now.... by Tracy Chapman



For You by Tracy Chapman

 

[foxxycat]

kashmir64 I used to collect the singles that were on the 45's. One of the first ones was Jump by Van Halen. My sis I think still has her vinyl records from the 1970s and 1980s. I remember her playing Chaka Kaun (sp!) That dance club type song...i posted it a ways back.

 

[kashmir64]

This is my favorite Tracy Chapman song. It sounds bluesey and I really like the blues.

I heard this version of White Christmas on the radio this morning, and had to Google this video:
