O Jackson Browne... how clever of you!
Most people don't know this, and if you're an avid Jackson Browne fan like myself i was shocked to find out the certain meaning to this very song!
The song is off Browne's live album Running On Empty, "Rosie" or as most people refer to it "Another Great Song About Masturbation." I loved the song from the first time i heard it while wearing out my copy of this live album. Later in life when my mother told me what it was really about, I couldn't believe it! I swore she was lying, trying to trick me! NOPE, once i studied the lyrics i learned she was telling the straight up truth!!
The song was recorded backstage in '77 at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center. Browne's great way of describing the band's sound mixer falling in love with a girl he meets at a concert. Needles to say the girl falls for the drummer and leaves him behind...but he still has good ole Rosie (Rosie Palm, that is)!! Haha. Listen to the lyrics of the song if you have no idea what i'm talking about! Such a classic!!! I love this song!!
No favorites to this album because I love every single song, defintely one of my top ten favorite live albums!!
Happy Friday!
