Donald Fagen will be supporting his newest album, Sunken Condos, by singing a song tonight on David Letterman. I most certainly will be kicking myself in the morning for staying up so late, but I will be there watching.
The song that Donald chose to sing, is "Weather In My Head", which I consider one of the best, or the best song on the CD.
There has been much conversation among Dan Fans about the timing of the release of the CD and about the song itself. After the mess that was Hurricane Sandy, doesn't that cover look like he knew that storm was coming?
We realize he didn't, but freaky, none the less.
Weather In My Head
The air is boiling - sun on my back
Inside I'm frozen girl - I'm about to crack
They may fix
The weather in the world
Just like Mr. Gore said
But tell me what's to be done
Lord - 'bout the weather in my head
Girl when you hurt me - when you told
Those lies
It's like a typhoon exploded behind my eyes
They may fix the weather in the world
Just like Mr. Gore said
But tell me what's to be done
Lord - 'bout the weather in my head
Here comes my own Katrina - the levee
Comes apart
There's an ocean of misery floodin' my heart
They may fix the weather in the world
Just like Mr. Gore said
But tell me what's to be done
Lord - 'bout the weather in my head
Seaquake by morning
Says QUAKE-TV
Rogue wave comes high
And it breaks all over me
They may fix the weather in the world
Just like Mr. Gore said
But tell me what's to be done
Lord - 'bout the weather in my head
Four old hippies drivin' in the rain
I asked for a lift - they said:
Get used to the pain
They gonna fix the weather in the world
Just like Mr. Gore said
But tell me what's to be done
Lord - 'bout the weather in my head
This is a song I would like to heard :-)
