December 2, 200816 yr ... thats because its one of the best records ever writen/recorded!!! oh i dunno... its a pretty lightweight, country style (influenced) track, but its a good one.
December 2, 200816 yr oh i dunno... its a pretty lightweight, country style (influenced) track, but its a good one. and what other lightweight country style track would you choose instead?? ackey breaky heart??
December 2, 200816 yr and what other lightweight country style track would you choose instead?? ackey breaky heart?? why chose any? id suggest that consortiums 'all the love in the world', or fleetwood macs 'oh well' could have been the choice from '69. .... i LIKE wichita lineman, but im not going to pretend its anything other then what it is.
December 3, 200816 yr ive thought about this before...and couldnt decide, i have so many favs in the mid 60's . i could have done a triple album from 66 !!! Likewise for me but not ony 66 but 67, 68 & 69 as well. 1965-1970 were my faves in music from the past I would say miles better than the 70s. In the 80s I preferred American Rock and in the 90s I turned on to European music. I loved the European Rock and Dance Scene (Techno, Trance, Hardcore etc) I still love European Rock. Acts such as The Rasmus, HIM, Within Temptation, Hoopverphonic, Silbermond etc
