    This is what I live for. Finding this kind of song for the first time. This is four times in a row. Haven’t stopped crying. I’m so happy.

      Yeah, it's like an entire Larry Brown novel in one song. (Actually reminds me a great deal of the liquor store owner from the book Joe)

      @@connordebruler3264 I heard something about Charlie Parr writing stories to eventually compile into a book, but then thinking the book wasn't any good. This song "Cheap Wine" comes from one of those stories he wrote. Sounds like there is a longer story here and we're just getting a glimpse of it.

      Right!?! I've listened to as many versions of this song as I could find and the one at Terrapin Station, I feel, is his best performance of the song. There's something raw and emotional about that particular performance.

    • @werbeck1
      @werbeck1 2 года назад +2

      So I took your advice.. This slower version, with the 12 string gives the lyrics a moment to sink in. I like it better, but it's all subjective.

    Old ladies don't like cheap wine. They buy it because they can't afford better.

    This song should be the anthem of neighborhoods like mine.

    • @CruzWilson-jg5bu
      @CruzWilson-jg5bu Месяц назад

      Why do SO MANY obnoxious bicycle riders hog the road? They could be riding so that car traffic ( that the roads are there for) can pass, but no. Slows everybody down, creates a situation where a car driver might make an unsafe movement just to get around the bicyclist (s). How many times have I been flipped off, cussed out, by bicyclists for just trying to make my way around them. High percentage are jerks. THEY need to "share the road". And pedestrians that don't even look before crossing, stroll along, knowing they're forcing people that have somewhere to go too will have to slow their progress- it's a messed up power trip in both camps.

    On working in a liquor store;
    The old ladies are just as bad as the crustiest bum that comes in and ruins your day.
    The putrid stench of perfume eventually is the same as the stench of sweat and alcohol seeping through the pours as they sift through their change.
    I'm so tired of these labels. Why don't they just say it? It's cheap wine.
    The front door swings open, the bell attached to it dings. I see a grizzled man stagger inside mumbling to himself.
    The elderly woman buried deep in the Pinot Noir aisle is struggling to stoop to see the price tag on the bottom shelf bottles.
    As the aforementioned ghoul shuffles his way to the counter to ask about the price of a 5th of Arbor Mist that he can't afford, the shell of the woman stumbles out of the next aisle and wrinkles her nose at the man. I wrinkle my nose at her.
    The bum walks up, bottle in hand, and slaps a single crumpled dollar and an undetermined amount of silver and pennies onto the counter.
    The old crone behind him lets out a huff of impatience.
    I count his life's worth and send him on his way, paper bag crumpled tight around his low proof sweet wine.
    The next 7 minutes are pure agony.
    The woman is now boiling with rage which she can only pinpoint as either my fault or that of the man that is now happily on his way.
    Being that I am the only one in front of her, she directs her frustration at the only person who has had nothing to do with her frustration, naturally.
    She demands a discount for the inconvenience of having to wait in line like a normal human being and is frothing at the mouth when she is promptly told to insert the sharpest part of a cactus into her anal cavity and that if this is the worst she's ever dealt with, then this should be her eternal sentence when she undoubtedly reaches the hot, screaming gates of hell.
    Long story short, I would deal with legions of bums and miscreants before ever having to deal with a Sunday brunch van full of old women looking for a bottle of cheap wine. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

    RUclips is adertising something called Patriot Foods to me, and it's the most tone-deaf thing I've ever experienced. Then they are sending me something about golfing. Not much better. All of this on a post by a musician I love.
    Google recently admitted that they only care about the supply side of their advertising budget. Not surprising. These idiots try to market me as a product for things I don't want to buy.
