"He believed in the green light, the orgiastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then but that's no matter -- tomorrow we will run faster, stretch our arms further...And one fine morning -- 'So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.'"
The Great Gatsby F Scott Fitzgerald
We interrupt your regularly scheduled slate of apocalyptic horrors, rampant Lovecraftian design, and internecine, clandestine parapolitical espionage to...say goodbye to a friend.
You won't hear as much global pomp or hoopla as would attend the passing of a Bowie or a Prince, but he was a King and a Giant in his own Power-Pop right, rest assured, and make no mistake.
If you're not familiar with his ridiculously varied and angelically melodic catalog, or only know of him thru latter-day piffle from Dirty Dancing, I've got your six right here, sweet, summer children.
This is someone that could give Brian Wilson a run for his legendary money; could encode and invoke both Rachmaninoff and F Scott Fitzgerald within the same 4 minutes and 23 seconds. This is the guy -- the GUY -- that did all this; rocked like the Faces, took cues from the Beach Boys and alternatively gave Springsteen his "sound" for The River. Don't think so? Just give I Wanna Be With You from his Raspberries days a listen. You'll get it. (Springsteen himself at the time admitted to listening almost exclusively to both Hank Williams and The Raspberries in those '79-80 days in seeking to combine those 2 sounds and influences.)
So RIP to the very iconoclastic, individualistic, one-of-a-kind Eric Carmen. I encourage you to go far beyond this simple primer here -- this dude wrote worlds for your ears. Aside from dooming his commercial chances with an opening line like "Used to feel so fuckin optimistic..." a finer example of classic songwriting you will not be able to find than "Starting Over." There are precious few classifiably Perfect Songs in history -- Don't Worry Baby, Summer Wind, Wichita Lineman spring to mind -- This is one on that list.
And don't be sad because it's over -- smile because it happened. And you were there to hear it.
Goodbye Eric.
There's romance in the sunset,
We're boats against the current, to the end.

I'd never heard of Eric Carmen before, but the lyrics to the first song are kind of profound. Quite a loss today for sure.
ReplyDeleteMore than glad to have made the intros Wordsy!!
DeleteAnd yes, dude was one of life's hidden gems.

Heard and dropped the needle down on that as a 17 year old.
Had no idea.
But brother -- I know now.
They played All By Myself into the ground, back out the other side and ground it into the dirt again back in the day.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely ruined Eric Carmen for me over forty years ago.
It was a crime against humanity I thought it would never stop.
RIP dude, maybe someday I will be able to listen to something else you did, maybe some Raspberry tunes.
I doubt it though.
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!
DeleteLittle simple experiment:
Just play the last 2:40 of No Hard Feelings...nothing else.
You'll be cured.
Dude contained multitudes.
PS -- I felt the same for McCartney over Silly Love Songs, LOL.
have forgiven & know that the same dude that pulled that shite off did Helter Skelter & Junior's Farm too.
Don't forget the ethereal Go All The Way. The 50's meets the 60's in the early 70's.
ReplyDeleteOh most DEF Cals!!
DeleteThe very definition of Power Pop at its apex.
I figured it was so ubiquitous I'd highlight some of the lesser knowns, but it deserves every accolade it ever has -- or ever will -- get.
There was also this one that was a minor '77 hit featuring Brian Wilson, Bruce Johnston & the one & only Burton Cummings on those very Beach Boys backing vox:

I hate to admit it but "All By Myself" seems to be my theme song now. He knew.............
ReplyDeleteSO MANY of these dudes know LOTS.
DeleteTapped into diff wavelengths and frequencies -- like cats -- interacting with things invisible to the rest of us. That's why they're psychic and emotional barometers = invaluable to the rest of us; they interact -- we REact.
Then we go "How'd you know what I was thinking??!! That I loved that girl that way, that I was depressed, that I felt this, felt that, etc..." Haha.

The scene where Cruise tries the hummus still cracks me up.

& place your bets -- you KNOW if this "statement" is being scripted & signed off on by Westminster/Royal Fam it's something BIG. Behind the scenes ramifications w/ MI-6 likely being discussed as we speak, since said statement is supposedly to come within 72 hrs....this is like DIANA in slow motion & could go off like a powderkeg. People don't understand -- this could be the trigger for ALL MANNER of things worldwide.

DeleteBB -- we've got an entire Remington Factory worth of smoking guns at this point from multiple sources -- the usual suspects of KK, Ana, Naomi, and that infrastructure, PLUS docs like the above from the horses' mouths themselves --and where does it gets us, what do we hear? Massive herds of crickets from anything approaching mainstream.
DeleteWHAT is it going to take at this point? Possibly an affirmation from a major figure of a provable death-by-vaxx. And even then they'd try to cover it up -- hint hint.
Funny to come by and see everyone geeking about music :^)
ReplyDeleteWhy is Macron acting tough on Russia when his entire country hates him?
Dude!! Music is a must-have vital pressure release valve!! LOL.
DeleteJust sad that it took EC actually DYING to get me to notice his overt greatness....that's how stealth mode he was on pretty much everyone's old school radar.
And sad that you never know whatcha got til it's gone.
But as Eddie Van was fond of saying
"I'll always be with you -- Just push PLAY!!"

As for Macron -- talk about irrelevant!!

That is NOT Princess Catherine. And not Prince William either. I am a huge fan and follow a British website about the royals. The scary part is why are they showing fake pictures?

DeleteI had heard about this but havnt dug in much. Also saw a chart that says she(he?) May also be his dad. Would not be surprised.
Guy came on my radar cause I been looking into the ukraine/russia/NATO stuff lately as it seems the Ukrainian war is all but lost. I know that France is going through a near civil war atm so when Macron started talking big towards Russia I was like huh?
What the hell is coming in April?
Either something massive or our leaders really are insane. All the geopolitical people I read think the West is fucked and that our leaders are mega dumb. Perhaps they just know that shit gonna git the fan in a big way soon and doing the blabla dance until.
In any case some good music has been nice.

DeleteI hate seeing her thrown in with all of Polly's scorched-earth Wellness Company postulates:
https://rumble.com/v4jszy9-amazing-polly-the-wellness-company.html
Real shame more than anything cos I love em both to death, and AGREE 1,000% with them both, and BOTH serve their purposes magnificently.
I like Pol's disclaimer at the beginning that she's not throwing each and every one of these people under the bus but they all SHOULD be careful who they link up with. Wise words. Incredibly wise.
I think in KK's case she's just had so much going on, and so many bigger fish to fry, that she hasn't had time to do due diligence on who's what and who's using her name -- which is hopefully the case for a LOT of these folks.
All that being said, trust Polly to TRUST NO ONE, and to get to the root of what's really going on and being assembled.
Pol was, is, and always will be continually about Controlled Opposition. She's on the very top turret of the watchtower; she keeps all of us in these positions honest.
And that's invaluable.
Hi Wordman, on a layover at the airport in Qatar last week, I noticed that your site was blocked! And not just in an "unreachable" sort of way, but via an actual government landing page talking about public peace yada yada. Given how ultra-globalist the country is, I think that's a healthy sign that your blog speaks truth to power.
ReplyDeleteThat time when you don't know whether to be proud as punch or duck and cover while holding your head and running zigzag patterns!! LOL.
DeleteWOW -- that's wild.
Hopefully, he says haltingly, not a harbinger or portent of things to come this way -- but all good things, as they say.....

In the "Millennium", season 2 episode "Owls", Peter Watts explains to Frank Black, while pointing to the Great Seal of the United States: "This is *God*, in the form of the Ancient Egyptian Amen-Ra, this is a Masonic seal of the Founding Fathers..."
ReplyDeleteAmen-Ra is, of course, the Greek *Pan*.
That great Millennium two-parter was "Owls/Roosters": In The Mysteries of Freemasonry, John Fellows noted that both birds were used to announce sacrifices. "When the sacrifice was to be made at night, they put an owl near the figure that proclaimed it, Fellows explained. “A cock was put in the room thereof, when the sacrifice was to be made in the morning. Nothing could be more simple or convenient than this practice.”

A little part of me still believes that this is how the powers that be wanted 2020 to play out with the release of an indiscriminate killing organism worldwide.
