Favorite Thanksgiving song?
For my money you don't get a much more American Thanksgiving song than Neil Young's "Harvest Moon".

What is your choice?

3. twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy photographs
they took twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy photographs with circles
and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each
one was to be used as evidence against us.

I went over to the sergeant, said, "Sergeant, you got a lot a damn gall to ask me if I've rehabilitated myself, I mean, I mean, I mean that just, I'm sittin' here on the bench, I mean I'm sittin' here on the Group W bench 'cause you want to know if I'm moral enough join the army, burn women, kids, houses and villages after bein' a litterbug." He looked at me and said, "Kid, we don't like your kind, and we're gonna send you fingerprints off to Washington."

14. Local FM Station Plays It Twice Every Thanksgiving...
Edited on Tue Nov-23-04 01:56 PM by mcscajun
...and I always try to listen both times...once at least.

Have it on tape and listen to it throughout the weekend. Then it goes away for a year. :)


"Walk into the shrink wherever you are, just walk in, say, 'Shrink...You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant'...and walk out. You know, if one person, just one person does it, they may think he's really sick and they won't take him.

And if two people do it...in harmony...they may thing they're both FAGGOTS and they won't take either of them. And if THREE people do it! Can you imagine three people walkin' in, singin' a bar of 'Alice's Restaurant' and walkin' out? They might think it's an organization!

And can you imagine fifty people a day? I said FIFTY people a day...walkin' in singin' a bar of "Alice's Restaurant" and walkin' out? Friends, they may think it's a MOVEMENT, and that's what it is:

THE ALICE'S RESTAURANT ANTI-MASSACREE MOVEMENT!"


Woo-hoo!!

10. "King Harvest (Has Surely Come)"
From The Band's brown album. Just an excuse to play the whole dang thing through once again.

Quintessential Americana from a mostly-Canadian band. Just like Neil Young.
