Just a thought following a dinner conversation

To start the ball...

Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone

Thanks

As suspected, nothing of any philosophical importance has actually been achieved by music

This was the same conclusion we reached at dinner

You go for it and never look back



Your love for the world will be your immortality



Revolutions, because there is nothing stronger than an idea whose time has come.



Devil and the deep blue sea behind me
Vanish in the air you'll never find me
I will turn your face to alabaster
Then you'll find your servant is your master...




And never forget love wins in the end.




Back to where it all started...


Μια αγάπη για το καλοκαίρι
A love for the summer

Μια αγάπη για το καλοκαίρι
A love for the summer
θα 'μαι κι εγώ
I will be, too
να σου κρατώ δροσιά στο χέρι
To keep for you the dew in the hand
να σε φιλώ.
To kiss you
Θα μ' αγαπάς σαν καλοκαίρι
You’ll love me like the summer
και σαν παιδί,
And like a child
μα θα μου φύγεις με τ' αγέρι
But you will leave me with the wind
και τη βροχή.
And with the rain (you'll leave me when the wind and the rain come)

Μια αγάπη για το καλοκαίρι
A love for the summer
θα 'μαι κι εγώ
I will be, too
να σου κρατώ δροσιά στο χέρι
To keep for you the dew in the hand
να σε φιλώ.
To kiss you
Και σαν θα 'ρθει το καλοκαίρι
And when the summer comes
και σε ζητώ
And I call for you
θα μείνει μόνο έν' αστέρι
Only a star will stay(remain)
να το κοιτώ.
For me to look at it

You gotta roll with the punches and get to what's real.

You are invisible now you got no secrets to conceal

(or may be just invincible finally with nothing to hide)

Cause, when you aint got nothing you got nothing to lose.

(at that moment the redemption and victory is born)

Everything i post in this thread was at some point influential to me.

That's because the philosophical importance of dinner is worth more than a whole song about philosophical importance.

Some my many influencers made great use out of the out acting upon of importance....

'Relax' said the night man,
'We are programmed to receive.
You can check out any time you like,
But you can never leave!'

You know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools,
But that's the way I like it baby,
I don't wanna live forever,
And don't forget the joker!

I shouted out,
Who killed the Kennedys?
When after all
It was you and me

Well, Wagner did help drive Nietzsche up the wall. So there is that.

"Another blind man at the Gate." - Mr. Bob

Please Don't Bury Me
John Prine

Woke up this morning
Put on my slippers
Walked in the kitchen
And died
And oh, what a feeling!
When my soul
Went through the ceiling
And on up into heaven, I did ride

When I got there, they did say
"John, it happened this way
You slipped upon the floor
And hit your head"
And all the angels say
"Just before you passed away
That these were the very last words
That you said"

"Please don't bury me
Down in that cold, cold ground
No, I?d rather have 'em cut me up
And pass me all around"
"Throw my brain in a hurricane
And the blind can have my eyes
And the deaf can take both of my ears
If they don't mind the size"

"Give my stomach to Milwaukee
If they run out of beer
Put my socks in a cedar box
Just to get 'em out of here"
"Venus De Milo can have my arms
Look out! I've got your nose
Sell my heart to the junk man
And give my love to Rose"

"But please don't bury me
Down in that cold, cold ground
I?d rather have 'em cut me up
And pass me all around"
"Throw my brain in a hurricane
The blind can have my eyes
And the deaf can take both of my ears
If they don't mind the size, oh man!"

"Give my feet to the footloose
Careless, fancy free
And give my knees to the needy
Don't pull that stuff on me"
"Hand me down my walking cane
It,s a sin to tell a lie
Send my mouth way down south
And kiss my ass goodbye"

"But, please don't bury me
Down in that cold, cold ground
I?d rather have 'em cut me up
And pass me all around"
"Throw my brain in a hurricane
And the blind can have my eyes
And the deaf can take both of my ears
If they don't mind the size, that's right"

"Sunshine, on my shoulders, makes me happy"

"You don't have to live like a refugee"

May your hands always be busy
May your feet always be swift
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift
May your heart always be joyful
And may your song always be sung
May you stay forever young

The most popular song, chart-wise, to include the word "philosophy" in it's lyrics?

"Choke me in some shallow water, before I get too deep"

x6 with flair!

Winner.
Only when Wagner became a religious idiot. Pre-idiocy, he was well received by Nietzsche.

Well, this is a poker related site, so...

"I know nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody sin
You got to lose to know how to win"
