Thirty Days of Song - Day Thirteen
May. 4th, 2020 02:22 pmDay Thirteen - A song you like from the '70s
Gordon Lightfoot - Sundown (Sundown)
I have such vivid memories of listening to this song on the radio in the car, although I can't ever remember my parents listening to music. My mom was a devotee of talk radio and my dad loved sports. And Gordon Lightfoot wasn't really eldest sister's tastes - she was all about The Who and Jethro Tull and ELP (album-oriented rock for the win). So maybe at night? Or on the little transistor radio we all had?
It's kind of a stupid song, when you listen to it - but it's catchy. And I always pitied the girl - the singer sounded like such a total asshole.
( If you want to play along, here are the thirty days of song )
