Thank you for the kind words!
I probably have the lyrics somewhere. Maybe. :-) Or I'll transcribe.
Your mentioning "From the Beginning" reminded me a few are covers, and I really should mark them as such. "From the Beginning" is by "Emerson, Lake, and Palmer". Loved it as a kid/teen, and in college sat down with another guy in a dorm stairwell to play it endlessly until we could each sing and play guitar parts simultaneously.
(And if you believe it was mostly that instead of mostly to attract the desirable (to us) gender, I've some proverbial swamp land for sale as well.... ;-) )
I wish I could remember who "I Want to be Close to You" was about. I'll have to dig for possible notes. It was likely a Korean coworker I fancied in the late 1980s... but as you can see, it was a couple, three, THIRTY-EFFING-SOME years ago, so.... :-)
Hmmm... not finding any files containing lyrics. Must be on paper, somewhere.
I did find a .html per song containing what the songs were about. Lemme know if that might seem interesting.
BTW, the Korean I mentioned above's name was "Kim", which I encoded in the song title "Caught In the Middle" (C instead of K... (whoa... haven't thought about Louis CK in a while... have you dear readers?)).
Another thing came to me while listening to some of these again... none of the people they were either about or even contained direct, in-person quotes from them ever heard them. And I really have no interest in interacting with them again, so I guess they'll just plain never know.....
