    Was it Kid Rock who ruined this song? I think it was. Warren rocks this song.

  • It’s  not that bad, I just don’t like him. I like the one song he does with sherl Crow though.

    I don't know a lot of his songs. Yeah, this song is not so bad, you're right.

    I just like Zevon's song so much that I get irritated with myself when I hear the beginning of Kid Rock's song and think its Zevon and then I'm disappointed.

    I do love that Kid Rock song -- "god to the bong with the bang de bang ditty ditty" or whatever it is.

  • Yeah I don’t like when people cover songs that don’t need covering! Here’s the one I like by him when you get time.

    Fairies Wear Boots by Ozzy Osbourne. And the Wizard by Uriah Heep. Cheers! This post was edited by Nanoose at March 11, 2019 6:53 PM MDT

    The Waterboys - The Whole Of The Moon



    Unicorns and cannonballs
    Palaces and piers
    Trumpets, towers, and tenements
    Wide oceans full of tears
    Flags, rags, ferry boats
    Scimitars and scarves
    Every precious dream and vision
    Underneath the stars




    Bob Dylan - Desolation Row

    Praise be to Nero's Neptune
    The Titanic sails at dawn
    Everybody's shouting
    "Which side are you on?"
    And Ezra Pound and T.S. Elliot
    Fighting in the captain's tower
    While calypso singers laugh at them
    And fishermen hold flowers
    Between the windows of the sea
    Where lovely mermaids flow
    And nobody has to think too much
    About Desolation Row
    Yes, I received your letter yesterday
    About the time the doorknob broke
    When you asked me how I was doing
    Was that some kind of joke?
    All these people that you mentioned
    Yes, I know them, they are quite lame
    I had to rearrange their faces
    And give them all another name
    Right now I can't read too good
    Don't send me no more letters, no
    Not unless you mail them from
    Desolation Row.
