I love the juxaposition, of this and S&G's Mrs. Robinson, both saying goodbye..... Very good plan. And I would want to finish with "Layla". Seems to me a song for ending things.  |

With my upcoming retirement, I'm turning these lyrics into something personal. Any day now, I shall be released.

No offense Bob, Rick, Levon, Garth, Richard and Robbie - you guys are unparalleled but this gal does a much better cover of this song than you guys!

I really love Nina Simone's voice, but this song is just not doing it for me. One of her background vocalists is off-key - just enough dissonance that the whole track was out of whack, to my ears. (Romeotuma, can I borrow your ears to make this song good for me? What a pal you are!  ) |

I find a little Nina goes a long way. The occasional song in the RP mix is just about right.

I can hear this song, being played at my funeral, and all my family and friends singing along, and smiling as they know I have moved to a better, happier place. I love the juxaposition, of this and S&G's Mrs. Robinson, both saying goodbye..... |
