After Midnight - JJ Cale
I have always tried in vain to explain what kind of man (?) I am.
But there’s just no way.
Every time, I end up clutching at straws, slipping between the induced conventions and the paranoid convolutions of people much more foolish than me, but much more arrogant.
Who rule, decide, and force you to state the obvious.
Which, for me, is boring.
What's the song got to do with it?
JJ’s wife said about him:
"You don't know JJ, you have to see him with his guitar on the porch, with a half-full or half-empty bottle of beer under his feet; for him, it was all the same." lui:
