Adele's Someone Like You.
An amazing voice. Heard her on CBC with Jian Gomeshi driving from home to Gage for crse, and was blown away.
Otherwise, tunes all over the place on the iPod...

I'm on a Social Distortion kick right now. Their latest album (Hard Times and Nursery Rhymes) is a big departure from their past work. More R&B/ hard rock than their older punk stuff. Still rocks though!

And good to see them having fun with video too.
And more of their 'new' sound. Great cruising music.

I've been a SD fan for a while, and I still find myself enjoying their stuff.
I think I like every record with the exception of "Mommy's Little Monster"...(I could never get into that one).

The 472 and 500 cubic inch Cadillac V8's were 22 feet long and a pleasure to drive. They got the adrenaline going. Amazingly smooth suspension and sound insulation. Had to really keep an eye the speedometer, because they didn't have much stopping power, and had an alarming tendency to swerve on hard braking.
Not many survived for long, and no songs were written about them. But, here is one about the legendary 409:

We grew up with Beach Boys music. Maybe it was a little gentler than what young people listen to now.
"Be True To Your School":
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4dHkSAciJs&feature=related
"So be true to your school now
Just like you would to your girl or guy"
"Wouldn't It Be Nice":
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-E4FRtrD9aQ&feature=related
A lot of truth in this one:

George Jones ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Jones ) has frequently been referred to as
"the greatest living country singer."
Country music scholar Bill C. Malone writes,
"For the two or three minutes consumed by a song, Jones immerses himself so completely in its lyrics,
and in the mood it conveys,
that the listener can scarcely avoid becoming similarly involved."

"He Stopped Loving Her Today"

Sometimes, just plain acoustic guitar and singing is good:
Extreme - More Than Words - Studio version
And one of my personal idols growing up (Stevie, not Tom):

And a personal favorite:

IMhO...one of the bestest songs ever....I was a disciple of the early 90's rock (between HAIR & GRUNGE), but that song,
Ooo...that song...
Tits!

I think I've clicked it three times since reading the Op....
So, so good.

Trooper (rank) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trooper_(rank)
Trooper (abbr. Tpr) from the French "troupier" is the equivalent rank to private in a regiment with a cavalry tradition in the British Army and many other Commonwealth armies, including those of Australia, Canada, South Africa and New Zealand. Today, most cavalry units operate in the armoured role, equipped with tanks or other armoured fighting vehicles. Some armoured regiments without a cavalry tradition do not use the rank, although the British Royal Tank Regiment does. Cavalry units are organized into squadrons, further divided into troops, hence a trooper is a member of a troop. "Trooper" can also be used colloquially to mean any cavalry soldier (although not usually an officer).
In the British Army, trooper is also used as a rank in the Special Air Service and Honourable Artillery Company. Airtrooper (Atpr) is used in the Army Air Corps.
In the United States cavalry and airborne, "trooper" is a colloquialism that has traditionally been used not as a rank, but rather as a general term for any enlisted soldier.
Cavalry Troopers are generally considered to be socially a cut above other soldiers. This distinction stems from the days when cavalry needed to supply their own mounts, tack etc. In order to supply the mounts and tack the Trooper would need to be reasonably wealthy so the average Trooper was a gentleman of sorts. In addition cavalry regiments were seen to be relatively fashionable and dashing, often having colourful or even garish uniforms.
This historically superior social position is humorously referenced today in the Australian Army, where cavalry Troopers jokingly define their role as: "The role of the Cavalry is to add colour, dash and daring, to what would otherwise be a mindless shitfight amongst grunts". In the British Army the equivalent phrase is "adding tone to what would otherwise be just a vulgar brawl".
Trooper (band) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trooper_(band)
Trooper is a Juno Award winning[1] Canadian rock band that developed from a group formed by vocalist Ramon McGuire and guitarist Brian Smith in 1975. The group is best known for its Canadian hits: "Raise a Little Hell", "We're Here for a Good Time (Not a Long Time)", "The Boys in the Bright White Sports Car", "General Hand Grenade", and "Janine".
Here's one you should recall
Pretty Lady ........remember them slow ones in the mess and the perfume....
...and how the beer went down so smooth. (hehehehehehe)
