From ANDRAS JONES: JOHN FERRITER of the band The Tearaways joined our Pop Oracle session with VELVET STARLINGS with a question that’s been asked a lot on Radio8Ball; variations on”Will the Monkees ever be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?” In perfect sync, today’s randomly chosen Pop Oracle song of the day from the R8B app is from the film “Walk Hard” performed by its writer, the Dan behind the man. Will Dewey Cox ever get into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?
POP ORACLE Song of The Day (June 4, 2019): DAN BERN & COMMON ROTATION “Have You Heard The News (Dewey Cox Died)?”
No Soul To Save
No wonder why I’m feeling cynical inside coz the music’s buried in a shallow grave.
Wish I could help all of the millions of the world.
But the truth feels like that there ain’t no Soul To save.
People say it’s the sign of times waking up gotta open my eyes
If my generation is hopeless then dead is the dream
Yeh we’re born a few decades too late popular no musical taste
Well what can I do coz I don’t have a time machine.
Well ya know what I mean
Well it comes round yes it comes back round when it comes it’s up to you
I can hear the sound from the underground from the hallways of my youth.
So you say that you’ll still be my friend if I show up in a Mercedes Benz
Well ya know that’s there’s nothing in this life for free
So I’ll be singing this song to the end
Help yourselves out my fair weather friends while the music’s just staring out there in the streets – just lost in the trees.
Well it comes round yes it comes back round when it comes it’s up to you
I can hear the sound from the underground from the hallways of my youth.
Said There’s just no Soul To Save now – we’ve got some soul to save now – we’ve got some soul to give to you
Said There’s just no Soul To Save now – we’ve got some soul to save now – we’ve got some soul to give to you
