Many great tunes have questionable starts.  Lol.

I also love this - The lyrics by Don Henley and Glenn Fry were actually inspired by Steely Dan, who's vague lyrics they called "junk sculpture." Fry remarked in a BBC radio interview that "one of the things that impressed us about Steely Dan was that they would say anything in their songs, and it didn't necessarily have to make sense."

As a person that is into Steely Dan/Donald Fagen, I concur wholeheartedly.  I often try to make sense of their lyrics to no avail.   

Thanks.


Good reading.

"one of the things that impressed us about Steely Dan was that they would say anything in their songs, and it didn't necessarily have to make sense."

I tend to write that way anymore. To me, the more it doesn't make sense, the more options there are that it will make different sense(s) to listeners:)
Painting an image is the key.

By the time this line has come and gone, the listener is still looking at her (in the doorway:)
"There she stood in the doorway"

You can't be a musician and not respect the musicality of the Eagles. It's just not possible. You can quote me on that.

That's what Leo Sayer says about the Bee Gees.

BGG?
