This 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.

Tuesday Afternoon
The Moody Blues
Tuesday
Afternoon
I'm just beginning to see
Now I'm on my way
It doesn't matter to me
Chasing the clouds away
Something
Calls to me
The trees are drawing me near
I've got to find out why
Those gentle voices I hear
Explain it all with a sigh
I'm looking at myself
Reflections of my mind
It's just the kind of day to leave myself behind
So gently swaying through the fairy-land of love
If you'll just come with me
And see the beauty of
Tuesday afternoon
Tuesday afternoon
Tuesday
Afternoon
I'm just beginning to see
Now I'm on my way
It doesn't matter to me
Chasing the clouds away
Something
Calls to me
The trees are drawing me near
I've got to find out why
Those gentle voices I hear
Explain it all with a sigh
Evening
Has come
To pass
The time
Of day
Doesn't last
Evening
Has earning its place today
I'm tired of working away
Working
Living
It brings
Only way
To have
Those things
Toiling
Has born too many tears
Turn around all those past years
Evening time to get away
Evening time to get away
Evening time to get away
'Til next day
Live all you people
You can see where you're at
It doesn't really hurt you
So it can't be bad
Live all you people
You can see where you're at
It doesn't really hurt you
So it can't be bad
Evening time to get away
Evening time to get away

At home

I was privileged to see the original Lynyrd Skynyrd lineup at Oxford Polytech back in the 1970's. Seeing them live was Awesome especially when they played Freebird. It lives on with me and I was sorry to hear some were killed months later.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Bill!!! Yes, I can imagine that being an awesome concert. Surviving kin put together a really good country/rock band by the name of Van Zant later on.
DeleteThe words Tuesday afternoon were the only ones I really knew for the Moody Blues song and I don't recall ever hearing the Lynyrd Skynyrd song before.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Ann!!! You really have lived a sheltered life--huh? (LOL?)

ReplyDeleteBlessings in the new year, may your roof be lifted, and replaced, may your lady find strength to cope and may you recover from your heart's antics, Geoff in South Africa.
Thanks for stopping by, my dear Geoff!!! It is so good to hear from you again. I hope you-all have received enough rain. Another friend in South Africa has told me that it has not rained in her area for quite some time.
