Not Fragile
I recently posted this in another thread... I had not listened to it in years, a great song. The lyrics may be a bit simplistic, almost cliche, but are delivered with what I consider a real rocking force. The guitars... their interplay... I find simply... amazing. The entire album is worth listening but the title track is my favorite, I present to you, Not Fragile by Bachman Turner Overdrive. Enjoy!

Comin' to you across country
Hoping boogies still allowed
You ask do we play heavy music
Well are thunderheads just another cloud, and we do
Not Fragile, straight at you

Then we vanish to the night
Still in your ears but out of sight
Not Fragile

Don't think we feel hurt or wounded
Or our egos are showing thru
It's our world that's been disrupted
And our strength reflects from you
Well its true
Not Fragile, over you

Try us when you're getting down
Feelin' high or just hangin' round
Not Fragile

The times we travel in our lives
Are hard and give us drive
We may seem distant most of the time
But many thoughts are still on our minds
Not Fragile

1. A thread about BTO isn't dead until I say it is!
Blue Collar! Turner and Overdrive, no Bachman.

One of the bands I never got to see live that I really wish I had.
