Is that the only one out of a dozen that you can comment on?

@hoorta said:

no but i'll tell you what, if you a tom petty fan, they play it almost every tour...and man, mike campbell rocks out...they do an incredible version.

@nickers said:

really? never heard anything like that about the dude. seems like a cream puff. yes he's a great guitar player and writer and the guitar part is easy but it's fleetwood's drumming along with the riff that make the song.

@hoorta said:

Well that's odd.. I've seen garage bands play this song.. As a musician (guitarist) My self.. the guitar parts are really easy.. he's full of shit... I've seen people do unplugged versions of this song and do it well. Lindsey Buckingham should be in jail for all of the women he's beaten over the years.. He's a great player but , he's a sick fucker.

still stumps me to this day.

Lyrics

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner (fade out) in the night

Madman drummers bummers,
Indians in the summer
with a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps
as the adolescent pumps
his way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder,
feelin' kinda older,
I tripped the merry-go-round

With this very unpleasin',
sneezin' and wheezin,
the calliope crashed to the ground
The calliope crashed to the ground

Well she was...
Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Some silicone sister
with a manager mister
told me I got what it takes
She said
"I'll turn you on sonny to something strong,
play the song with the funky break"
And go-cart Mozart
was checkin' out the weather chart
see if it was safe outside
And little Early-Pearly
came by in his curly-wurly
and asked me if I needed a ride
Asked me if I needed a ride

Well she was...
Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night
Blinded by the light

She got down but she never got tight
She's gonna make it through the night
She's gonna make it through the night

------ guitar solo ------

But mama, that's where the fun is
But mama, that's where the fun is
Mama always told me not to look into the eyes of the sun
But mama, that's where the fun is

Some brimstone baritone
anticyclone
rolling stone
preacher from the east
Says, "Dethrone the dictaphone,
hit it in its funny bone,
and that's where they expect it least"
And some new-mown chaperone
was standin' in the corner,
watching the young girls dance
And some fresh-sown moonstone
was messin' with his frozen zone,
reminding him of romance
The calliope crashed to the ground

But she was...
Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

1)
Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night
Blinded by the light

2) Madman drummers bummers,
Indians in the summer
with a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps
as the adolescent pumps
his way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder,
feelin' kinda older,
I tripped the merry-go-round
With this very unpleasin',
sneezin' and wheezin,
the calliope crashed to the ground
Now Scott with a slingshot
finally found a tender spot
and throws his lover in the sand
And some bloodshot forget-me-not
said daddy's within earshot
save the buckshot, turn up the band
runner in the night
Some silicone sister
with a manager mister
told me I go what it takes
She said "I'll turn you on sonny to something strong"

She got down but She Never Got Touched
It's gonna make it through the night

yeah springsteen sucks.

I have seen/heard Buckingham do Oh Well.

@the-gipper said:

When I talk to God He says he understands

come sit by Me and I'll be your guiding hand

"Don't ask me what I think of you,

I might not give the answer that you want me to".

Oh well-

Its a shame the Mac almost never play this song in their current lineup.

Lindsey Buckingham says the studio version has multiple guitar overdubs,

and it's hard to do it justice live.

PS- I'd nominate "The Chain" for best lyrics.

Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show are fine with me. I saw them do that live at The Wildlife in downtown Akron back in the day.

Well, here are some lyrics by them that readily apply on this board:

"Don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to".

I guess I don't understand why an openly gay Steeler fan would spend time on this board.

In the day we sweat it out on the streets of a runaway American dream

At night we ride through the mansions of glory in suicide machines

Sprung from cages out on highway 9,

Chrome wheeled, fuel injected, and steppin' out over the line

Oh-oh, Baby this town rips the bones from your back

It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap

We gotta get out while we're young

`Cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run

yes, girl we were

Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend

I want to guard your dreams and visions

Just wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims

and strap your hands 'cross my engines

Together we could break this trap

We'll run till we drop, baby we'll never go back

Oh-oh, will you walk with me out on the wire

`Cause baby I'm just a scared and lonely rider

But I gotta know how it feels

I want to know if love is wild

Babe I want to know if love is real

Oh, can you show me

Beyond the Palace hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard

Girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors

And the boys try to look so hard

The amusement park rises bold and stark

Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist

I wanna die with you Wendy on the street tonight

In an everlasting kiss

1-2-3-4!

The highway's jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive

Everybody's out on the run tonight

but there's no place left to hide

Together Wendy we can live with the sadness

I'll love you with all the madness in my soul

Oh-oh, someday girl I don't know when

we're gonna get to that place

Where we really wanna go

and we'll walk in the sun

But till then tramps like us

baby we were born to run

Oh honey, tramps like us

baby we were born to run

Come on with me, tramps like us

baby we were born to run

Ru-uh-uh-un

Mm-mm-mm-mm

Uh-uh-uh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Ru-uh-uh-uh-un

Mm-mm-mm-mm

Whoa-oh-oh-oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Ru-uh-uh-un

Garbage. Springsteen sucks.

There are a million tunes with better lyrics.

"...you can check out anytime you like but you can never leave"...name that tune.
