    This is one of the very few songs I've heard that deals with friendship between women and loss.



    "Maureen"

    Maureen
    It's hard to explain
    I'm never going to see you again
    And you'll never meet my new friends
    Maureen, I miss you
    I just can't explain
    I'm never going to see you again
    I wish you could meet my new friends

    Walking along the subway listening to
    Loving you is easy acapella
    You were a souped-up car in that rent-a-go-kart town
    And I miss you, Maureen

    We're as thick as thieves

    Maureen maureen
    Remember when my mother said to me
    Sade don't you come home to late
    Till you're back I stay awake

    And maureen
    With the boys you could tell at a glance
    You'd say he looks good
    Let'd hope he can dance
    Wicky wacky party to the..

    Where are we going tonight
    And what will you be wearing
    Shone like a souped-up car in that rent-a-go-kart town
    And I miss you maureen, I miss you girl

    You were my best friend
    I'm never going to see you again, maureen
    And you'll never meet my new friends
    You really were a pearl in my world, maureen

    Maureen
    It's hard to explain
    You'll never call round to see me again
    You'll never meet my new friends

    Never meet my new friends
    Never meet my new friends
    Never meet my new friends
    [Repeat to fade]

    This one brings tears to my eyes as well, yet you are much closer to "owning" this amazing rendition.

    You are genuinely climbing above your more than fair share of burdens. My hat is off to you, PPM!

    Another maestro of those six strings!
    I heard him and of him years ago but yet again forgot an artist.

    I confuse this most excellent master guitar player with Roy Clark, the country musician, guitar player and comedian--at least on the popular tv show "Hee Haw."

    Mr Buchanan could have used a volume pedal but perhaps he had an aversion to floor pedals, his use of the volume knob on that Telecaster is masterful.

    Thank you for posting this video, Jeff Beck is in a class of his own. I was blown away my Tal Walkenfeld playing with Jeff Beck at the Crossroads Festival in 2007. I was lucky and caught this on tv. She is an amazement, a true genius. All of 20 years of age in this video, this woman astonished me.

    Sheryl Crow on stage with Eric Clapton? Talk about a miracle for her! This woman started at the top when she was a terrible musician, I mean she was making big bucks when she was worse than I am. See what I mean?
    I grant that she improved a lot but--playing with Eric Clapton? Maybe it was mass hypnosis? Being attractive must have aided her a LOT. All imho, naturally.

    I didn't know that "The Blues Brothers" went on without John Belushi. If so, imho, John Goodman as John Belushi is a good substitute. Visually. In the original band Mr Belushi took care of ninety five percent of the singing duties, I don't know if John Goodman can sing.
    This rendition of "634-5789" is good.

    This is a complicated subject. See you in the Roku thread.

    I don't think she is as bad as all that but you do know how to make a point!
