This weekly series will include as many of my all-time
favorite (ATF) tunes as I can get my grubby little hands on (so to speak). Now, each one included in each edition will
have some connection with the other—albeit only as a figment of my imagination,
but they will not be numbered. For I
just cannot bring myself to rate some higher than others. So, this will not be a countdown, but if you
are enjoying them as much as I do, it won’t matter. Besides, with no countdown, this could go on
forever and ever! Oh, and despite the
fact that there is absolutely no way your musical tastes could be as
exquisite as mine, I welcome any suggestions you might dare to make. For I am, after all, quite magnanimous by
nature.

Born to be Wild
Steppenwolf
Get your motor runnin'
Head out on the highway
Lookin’ for adventure
In whatever comes our way
Yeah darlin'
Gonna make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And
Explode into space
I like smoke and lightnin'
Heavy metal thunder
Racin’ with the wind
And the feelin’ that I'm under
Yeah darlin'
Gonna make it happen
Take the world in a lovin’ embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And
Explode into space
Like a true nature’s child
We were born
Born to be wild
We can climb so high
I never wanna die
Born to be wild
Born to be wild
Get your motor runnin'
Head out on the highway
Lookin’ for adventure
In whatever comes our way
Yeah darlin'
Gonna make it happen
Take the world in a lovin’ embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And
Explode into space
Like a true nature’s child
We were born
Born to be wild
We can climb so high
I never wanna die
Born to be wild
Born to be wild

I was caught
In the middle of a railroad track
Thunder
I looked around
And I knew there was no turning back
Thunder
My mind raced
And I thought
What could I do
Thunder
And I knew
There was no help
No help from you
Thunder
Sound of the drums
Beatin' in my heart
The thunder of guns
Yeah
Tore me apart
You've been
Thunderstruck
Went down the highway
Broke the limit
We hit the town
Went through to Texas
Yeah Texas
And we had some fun
We met some girls
Some dancers who gave a good time
Broke all the rules
Played all the fools
Yeah

They

They blew our minds
I was shakin' at the knees
Could I come again please
Yeah the ladies were too kind
You've been

ReplyDeleteand then there is ACDC Cool I have a lot of good memories at whole lotta rosie
Thanks for stopping by, my dear Marja!!! My little brother has always been a much bigger fan of AC/DC that I am, but the three I have included in this series so far I could listen to over and over again non-stop. Alas, my hardcore biker days ended with a really bad bicycle wreck when I was 12 (I think).
Deletelooking back on my life I really don't believe that I was born to be wild but that's not to say that I didn't occasionally make a feeble attempt at it :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Ann!!! Methinks you have made more of an effort than that. (LOL?)
DeleteSteppenwolf was a favorite group of mine until my father listened to some of the lyrics. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Roan!!! The interesting thing is that I was raised in a very conservative home, but when it came to music, my parents were quite tolerant of even acid rock back in the day. Oh, and with my dad being home all of the time since becoming fully disabled in 1967 and not one to let me out of his sight for very long at all, it was not like he was unaware of what I was listening to--neither!
DeleteOh my another interruption! You always make me pop over and put youtube on with tunes!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Karen!!! Is your boss going to sue me for interfering with your production schedule?
DeleteI like your taste in music. Born to be wild. Wow, I have not heard that in a while!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Jenny!!! Some of your travels get pretty wild--huh?
DeleteI wasn't much of a Steppenwolf fan but their music was everywhere and impossible to ignore.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Stephen!!! Yeah, they had a stranglehold on the airways for a time. It really surprised me when they did not last longer than they did.
DeleteJerry, You always play music I like. It is classic and never, ever sounds dated or old. It simply gets better!! Catherine
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Catherine!!! I really appreciate your enthusiasm, but I am still waiting on those ribs to arrive!
DeleteAnother perfect selection. I think we could have a good music evening together.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Shadow!!! Yes, but I can't bang my head like I sued to. I've tried. Sigh.
DeleteSome good rockin' music to get the heart a-pumpin' and the feet a-jumpin'!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Lee!!! Indeed!
Deletei do like 'born to be wild'. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear TWG!!! Have you heard the squirrels down there humming the song as they are rampaging about? Do they up here. Well, at least that is what our pups insist.
DeleteI followed the link to your FB page and noticed you enjoyed talking about music - something I love to do as well. I'll definitely have to visit more often, Jerry. I finally got to see AC/DC on the Black Ice tour when they made a stop through Fresno, Ca.
ReplyDeleteRock on, good sir!
-Jimmy (that's what friends call me).
Thanks for stopping by, my dear Jimmy!!! Whoa, I can imagine hearing Hells Bells and Thunderstruck through stage amps as being an absolutely awesome experience. Oh my, I have many memories of Fresno from my trucking days, and some of them are even good! (LOL?)
