Thursday Night Open Thread

Like many of my generation, I think “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” is Elton John’s best album. Probably because of the sheer number of songs on the two-disk set. Some of the songs are great, and some are as bad as just okay, but I don’t think there’s a stinker among them. Of course, it’s been a while — years — since I just sat and listened to the whole thing, so I may change my mind about that. But my memory of it is that it’s a great album.

This was one I really enjoyed way back when. Let’s see if I still do enjoy it.

♩♩♪

. . .

Wouldn’t it be nice if we could wake up
In a morning that is Covid free?
And after spending months in isolation,
Find a place awash with liberty.


Nightmare times together we’ve been spending
I wish this year would cease without more lending


Oh, wouldn’t it be nice?


Maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray
It might come true (run run ooo)
Baby, then there wouldn’t be a single thing we couldn’t do
We could be maskless (we could be maskless)
And then we’d be happy (and then we’d be happy)


Oh, wouldn’t it be nice?

♩♩♪
