Warren Zevon remains popular because his music is infinitely singable while you are riding along in your car with his music blasting on the speakers. And this does not deserve a place in music history? Unbelievable!!!!
Joke of the Day: What's the difference between a computer and a MAGAt? You can punch information into a computer. (Reused with permission of a commenter on another Substack).
Watching the reception President Zelenskyy received upon entering the Pope's funeral versus how Trump was shunned; spoke volumes about Trump's lack of respect among the heads of European governments. It totally disgusted me that Trump with his blue suit was grandstanding for PR purposes. No class there. Macron's refusal to shake hands and the body language in the chair to chair session after also spoke volumes. I like the obvious fact that Trump was set up and took the bait in order for Macron and Zelenskyy to give him an earful about his Russian lackey role in Russia/Ukraine diplomacy. All that being said; it is poor behavior on the part of International leaders when they cannot quietly; respectfully attend a Pope's funeral without pandering to the media circus that follows and shares their every move. Politics do not belong in the last honoring of a Pope.
The man was a genius. I don't care how he gets in as long as he's in because clearly the world does not appreciate him for what he was and still is.
Anybody remember Mozart?
FUCK the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for all the people that have nothing to do with rock and roll or even its precursors and predecessors that are in there.
Warren should be in the first aisle with the rest of the singer. Songwriting geniuses.
I'll take this cuz it's all they're going to give us and we're not getting younger and the world is not getting smarter.
We will always keep you in our hearts, Warren. Not just for awhile.
Laurabeth, Thank you for the comments and observations of Trump's grandstanding at the Pope's funeral, which rarely ceases in any of his public appearances.

Most Excellent Laurabeth
On point and succinct
I wrote a book about a killer DJ who idolizes Warren Zevon, which I’m self publishing … maybe serializing here?
The DJ didn’t start out a Zevon worshipper, but that’s the way the story went. Stephen King said that’s how it works so who am I to argue.
Anyway, watch for Dead Air … (maybe) coming to a Substack near you in late ‘25. ✍🏻

He tinkles the keys on She's a Rainbow, which always reminded me of making love
