I will always be a full album kind of guy (and since I refer to it as full "album" despite the fact that most of my music collection is cassettes and CDs, that's a clue as to my age).
Kids nowadays and their fancy itunes with their hot hip singles are missing out on the totality of the artistic experience ... hearing the songs that don't get released ... that sit in between the hits ... that, when listening to them some thirty-plus years later, perfectly capture the melancholy of a moment.
That's all the long way to say that the next entry in the discarded cassettes series is the Eagles' 'On the Border' (discarded 'cause I also have the CD and I'm finally slowly purging some things) ... and that the song is the Don Henley penned 'You Never Cry Like a Lover'.
I can't live with you baby, can't live without it
And sometimes I believe in love
Sometimes I doubt it
But your life goes on
Like a broken down carousel
Where somebody left the music on
PERFECTLY CAPTURED MELANCHOLY OF THE MOMENT:
