“Ode to Billy Joe” is a cool song.

The story it tells and the way she tells it with all the southern stuff is so creative. Plus the mystery—great country song.

Plus, Bobby Gentry predicted the pandemic in the future with the line, “there was a virus going ‘round, papa caught it and he died last spring”. Very eerie when I hear it today.

It was,and still is common for folk to catch a virus and die. Usually it is a virus which creates lots of phlegm and a good milieu for pathogenic bacteria to grow. Then the secondary bacterial infection helps kill you.. No mention of the numbers of bacterial infections which have killed the people who got covid first....just sayin.
Covid likes to hang out in lungs....but all you hear is covid=automatic death=vaccine only=lockdown or die.
Anyway...many songs.
Pretentious bs...imagine
Hilarious pathetic attempt at misery art: Don’t worry kyoko...mamas out looking for her hand in the snow...none other than Yoko Ono.

Afternoon Delight
Seasons in the Sun

Any “mumble” rap...which mentions genitalia or not!

Automatic aversion inducing songs.
