Linda Ronstadt performing “Heart Like a Wheel” on The Midnight Special in 1975. _____________________ Heart Like a Wheel Songwriter: Anna McGarrigle

Some say the heart is just like a wheel When you bend it you can't mend it But my love for you is like a sinking ship And my heart is on that ship out in mid-ocean

When harm is done no love can be won I know it happens frequently What I can't understand oh please God hold my hand Why it had to happen to me

And it's only love and it's only love That can wreck a human being and turn him inside out

Some say the heart is just like a wheel When you bend it you can't mend it But my love for you is like a sinking ship And my heart is on that ship out in mid-ocean

Rufus Wainwright's new album "Folkocracy" is officialy here.

And already my fucking favourite is "Wild Mountain Thyme", featuring his sisters Martha Wainwright & Lucy Wainwright Roche, his aunt Anna McGarrigle, Cousin Lily Lanken and family friend Chaim Tannenbaum.

BECAUSE, not only is it a reimagaining of him performing the same sobg with mum and aunt Kate & Anna McGarrigle at the very first Tramsatlantic sessions in 1994

BUT

Chaim Tannenbaum had a solo like I can't even with that gift...and Anna McGarrigle too that's such a gift!

Now I've had my chances with all sorts of men But none is so fine as my lad on the river

Love is a shiny car Love is a steel guitar Love is a battle scar Love is a morning song Love is a twelve-bar blues Love is your blue suede shoes Love is a heart abused Love is a mind confused And love is the pleasures I'm told And for some love is still a band of gold My love has no reason, has no rhyme My love cross the double line

It’s a chill Saturday, with low, dull, grey skies, and I’m cosying up in my favorite velvet chair listening to Kate and Anna McGarrigle sing Love Is. I am quite enjoying this, too!

Starmania

Starmania – The Show (1979): a Canadian-French cyberpunk rock opera (in French) written in 1976 with music by Michel Berger and book and lyrics by Luc Plamondon. At a recovery conference in Montreal in the 90’s I heard “Le monde est stone” at their cabaret & loved the song. While there I found a 2nd hand copy of the double lp & bought it. It was the studio lp & the songs was excellent. The…
