Sad Songs

Elton John’s, “Sad Songs Say So Much,” is kind of sappy. And true. And I always liked it with its juxtaposed happy lilt.

Apparently music is on my brain and radio this week. Albert Hammond’s, “It Never Rains In Southern California,” was playing yesterday in my travels. I think that song is one of the saddest. Dashed hopes and dreams. Leaving home. A plea for help. It’s got it all.

I sure hope I start having other tunes invade my brain. Apparently I need to change my channels!
