On That Note: Have a Drink on Me

[jcyclonee]

Should we just post the entire Jimmy Buffett catalog?

Actually the lead singer of Semisonic has stated that Closing Time is in fact a song about childbirth, and not about a night of drinking.

You're correct in the metaphoric sense. From what I've gathered, Wilson's first version was intended literally as a bar-closing song. Coincidentally, his wife was pregnant around that time with their first child, and at some point he realized the song could have a dual meaning. Apparently he revised or altered some lyrics to encompass that, while maintaining the initial theme.

This song counts, right...?

It is about smuggling booze.

Texarkana to Atlanta.

P!nk is a guilty pleasure musician to me.

For a short time I attempted to listen to college radio again. All they played was Wolfgang Press and G Love ASS- It was a running joke I switched it off haven't attempted to go back since.

These fall into the “drinking problem” category. Ironically, the music in each inspires maybe having one more drink (but just one!) … it’ll be different 2-morrow.

This one is sometimes my national anthem for Friday once work is over

I'm going to think of a lot more as the day goes on too so I bet I will have several more posts in this one. This is just a few more

This is a political song about the Irish's contempt for the English, but it's catchy as hell and they were phenomenal live.



I won't link it, but Dropkick Murphy's "Kiss Me I'm ****faced" would also qualify. Also, an incredibly fun concert.
