Heard that song for the first time about a year ago and immediately developed a man-crush on Billy Joe...
Since then, I've listened a ton on Youtube and done a horrendous kareoke of Good Riddance (the monitor sucked and i couldn't hear the chords over the bowling alley locals, then, the video got all fuzzy and, not really knowing the words, i adlibbed with stuff like 'tip your waitress aint she been great? i almost bowled a 98...' everybody laughed and at the end i got the most courteous applause. Not a 'frickin finally he's done' applause, but a genuine, smile-filled big hand. As i returned the microphone to 'Rockin Rick', the gammer at the end of the bar boldy proclaimed, 'he's cute!', which meant my cinderella hour had come.
Can I get another amen?
