The Boney 500: Songs 26 and 25

#1 Post by T_Bone0806 » Wed Dec 07, 2016 10:59 am

The first of our two songs today actually comes from today's album! A mere coincidence, I assure you..

As for the second tune for today, apparently Sir Elton enjoyed putting a song on yesterday's countdown so much that he stuck around today for an encore...


26. YOU CAN CLOSE YOUR EYES-JAMES TAYLOR (1971)
Album: Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon

A quiet number that is one of his loveliest. Not much more than JT, his guitar, and a couple of harmony vocals. It is more than enough.
An end of the evening, 2am nightcap of a song. I usually DO close my eyes when I listen, and just let it wash over me.




25. GOODBYE YELLOW BRICK ROAD-ELTON JOHN (1973)
Album: Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

A devastatingly gorgeous song, it's my favorite by Elton in a long list of Elton songs I like. I couldn't get enough of this tune back
in the day, and it still sounds darn good to me. Elton's vocal here is top notch.

Or maybe Yummy Yummy Yummy.

I'm pretty sure TBone can still be swayed.

Maybe for what Bryce Harper is supposedly going to want on his next contract. Better get that bake sale started.
