Re: Out on the tiles question...



Always nice to check on Jeff Lybarger's perspective:

I miss Jeff around here.  He's on facebook, though.

Or, as I'm learning list lingo, OOTT question.

This song has always caught my attention.  It's a happy little tune.
Upbeat.  Nothing mysterious.  Perhaps because the songwriter and lyricist
are different.

I've read the history about it, the Bonzo ditty, Bonzo and Page (with
Plant)
writing the lyrics.

Lyrics are straight forward, make sense... I love the "I'm so glad I'm
living, I'm gonna tell the world I am" line. But the last 2 lines of the
last verse changes abruptly when the tone gets almost angry.

"It's a total disgrace, they set the pace, it must be a race
And the best thing I can do is run."


(Hope questions like this are not out of line - haven't learned to search
the archives yet)
