    The late great Gerry Rafferty on lead vocals. One of the great Top 40 songs ever, and a nice Dylan parody. And yes, Harri, you will have it stuck in your head for quite a while!

    • @TehFrenchy29
      @TehFrenchy29 2 года назад +3

      It's intentional; Rafferty and Dylan were friends and Dylan has always kind of resented the amount of depth and meaning people try to find in literally every lyric he writes. Some of his songs have been quite deep, but others are just rock hits without much meant to be there to find. Rafferty wrote this as intentional nonsense relating to Dylan, sang the whole thing affecting a Dylan-like higher pitch and more nasally tone.

    Love this song. In 1972 Gerry Rafferty was in the Scottish folk rock band Stealers Wheel & had a big hit with "Stuck In The Middle With You" & "Star". Later on, he went out on his own & then had the big hits "Baker's Street", "Right Down The Line" & "Night Owl".

  • @pauldover1403
    @pauldover1403 2 года назад +5

    This is a fabulous choice, @imadrummin, I first heard it when it came out. I think PFM's "Celebration" was also being played a lot then, it was good times. Stealers Wheel arose from the ashes of The Humblebums (Billy Connelly and Gerry Rafferty), they recorded the original and best version of "Her Father Didn't Like Me Anyway" which I would have requested but for the fact that it has too few plays. I suppose that none of Stealers Wheel's other songs is popular enough to choose except, perhaps, "Star."
    I'd say that Stealers Wheel were closer to Medicine Head than T Rex. Does anyone else agree?

    Gerry Rafferty sings (Baker st.) Reservoir Dogs soundtrack is where most know this song. Stealers Wheel had an album (Ferguslie Park) where I grew up. Iain Banks(author)(Crow rd.; Walking on Broken Glass) describes Ferguslie as ‘ a triangular piece of land bordered by railway lines; and no matter what direction you enter from, you’ll always find yourself on the wrong side of the tracks’. Gerry was in a folk band with Tam Harvey and Billy Connolly called ‘ The Humblebums’ .

    None are mentioning what I think is the best aspect of this song: It is a humorous tale of a stoned presence at a party/gathering where the protagonist is getting a bit paranoid and wanting to exit pronto, but is frozen in contemplation of the situation. Been there! The music is great, but it is the story that makes it, IMHO.
