Sans Roger, this maybe the best live performance (IMHO)of the best Rock and Roll song of all time. 50...no, 100 years from now, this song will inspire children to pick up an instrument and channel their creativity, imagination, and emotion for the rest of the world to enjoy.

The song reached the top spot on the Billboard chart at the end of December 1973, three months after his
death in a plane crash. It was the third posthumous number one single on the Hot 100. At the same
time, it was a number-one hit on the Billboard Easy Listening chart.[SUP][1]

You don't know how much this hurts me to say but I also love this song. As my kids were growing up and I found myself too busy to spend time with them I would "get the big picture" by playing this song.
My father died a lonely old man because he never took the time when we were young to foster a relationship with us. I did not use the word "Dad" as I never felt he was my Dad--he was my father--huge difference.

Is not true that life imitates art - it imitates bad television.

It is an ongoing debate; does television (and other media) reflect society or does society reflect the influence of television?
It’s one of those circular questions, like the old chicken and egg.

The sit-coms of my youth only showed twin beds for the married couples........Rob & Laura AND Ricky & Lucy. Even on Lucy's show when she was expecting, they did not use the word "pregnant".
We never saw a toilet on TV 'til a tank of one was shown on Leave it to Beaver.
TV at that time was not reflecting my house then......we had a bathroom with a toilet and parents slept in one bed. . . And my mom didn't wear a dress and pearls to scrub floors.
If this post isn't on topic, I apologize for interferring.

Not at all. I agree with you that TV was alot more decent years ago and hid things.
