10 days ago! Live at Grand Central Station NYC
Perhaps recorded earlier but finally released ten days ago.
Thanks. I was in the crowd for this one!
! times ten characters
Thatās a nice song. First time to hear it, thanks @Soberbilly for it and the history. Youāre a wealth of knowledge.
Boudewijn de Groot - Jimmy
Another one from my mumās collection. The Jimmy from the song title is seen here on the cover of the album, riding with his pa whoās one of the best known singers The Netherlands produced. I biked there may many times. Later Jimmy frequented the same bar I did. Small country.
How strong is the lonely cyclist
Who, bend over his steer,
against the wind
finds his own way?
How self assured the football player
who in front of the crowd
wins the match
thinks heās the champion?
How satisfied the businessman laughs
without mercy who finds
his competitor beat,
himself almost going broke.
And Iām sitting here happily
with the little one in my lap.
The sun is shining, there is no reason
with shitty weather and lots of wind
to go cycling with the kid.
Please donāt let him become a football player,
they might kick him half to death. (2X)
But rather even that than the bag on his head of the businessman,
heāll only get worse and worse from that. (10X)
Classic! Also from my momās collection haha. From the time of proper music and lyrics.
