Have you ever considered adding more videos to your blog posts to keep the readers more entertained? I mean I just read through the entire article of yours and it was quite good but since I’m more of a visual learner,I found that to be more helpful well let me know how it turns out. This is good…thanks for sharing

Hi Rol

Decided I’ll do a Top 20 albums of the decade because I’m too indecisive squeeze my favourites into a Top 10. Zevon’s ‘Life’ll Kill Ya’ is in the chart with the following bad haiku:

Sardonic singer

Enjoyed every sandwich

Then left us a feast

(I’ve got to knock out another 19 of these…)

Cheers Johnny – I love that ‘regicidal’ line in Porcelain monkey, too. And that earlier “Hip-shakin’ shoutin’ in gold lame’/
That’s how he earned his regal sobriquet” couplet is another corker.

God bless Warren & Elvis indeed

I love “life’ll kill ya’” and especially “porcelain monkey.”
taking the word “regicidal” from whatever attic warren found it, and using it in the context of Elvis Presley is effin’ brilliant! Truly.
As for Elvis himself, I have always been fascinated with him, but as an icon a popular culture star, and less with his actual music.
for example, I love how in the “hitchhiker’s guide” novels, it is implied that when you say “the king” without specifying “of…”, it means Elvis not only on Earth, but throughout the cosmos.
God bless Warren Zevon. God bless Elvis Presley.

Keep it up Tom!
