great effortbrought back memories of friends that i have lost. After i heard the cd songs for a dying planet i was blown away by 2 songs decade and my friend had tears in my eyes while my friend was playing. felt bad but felt good at the same time and decade said a lot of the things that are wrong in the world in 10 years all and all it was a great cd to get into. my favorite joe walsh is barnstorm and when he was with james gang yer album was tops.
No one would ever think...
. . that Joe Walsh, with all his diversity, could come out with an album that has the ability not only to entertain, but to make you think, make you question, make you wonder. He touched on the problems with our society and the health of our planet in Ordinary Average Guy, but in Songs For A Dying Planet he reminds us that, if we're not mindful of the damage we're doing to Earth, that we won't have it to hand down to our children, and to their children after them.
While every song has meaning (aside from his remake of "Will you still love me") one of the last lines in one of the last songs really hits the target dead center:
"We are living on a dying planet, we're killing everything that's alive, and anyone who tries to deny it, wears a tie, and gets paid to lie"
Great album. Listen to it, not only with your ears, but with your head, and maybe even your heart.
