That's awesome, Steve!

I lived in Orange County from '83 - '86.  Enjoyed this on KNAC "105.5 FM, Rock N Rhythm Radio":)

 
I lived in Manhattan beach at the same time, right on the edge of KNAC's range.  Norm McBride and Big Rick were two of the best DJ's ever.  I still suffer PTSD from the day KNAC went heavy metal.

For the love of God, why can't I spend a buck ninety-nine or whatever to buy this?

I love the studio version.  

The live dynamic just isn't enough to overcome muddy acoustics that overwhelm her astonishing voice.

Danny Elfman is a genius, there's no doubt about it. How many artists/writers/composers can hit the pinnacle of two completely different musical genres?

 
Exactly.  I saw them at the Greek in LA on their farewell tour.  The band's musicianship, and Elfman's talent, were astonishing.

I bought this track after hearing it during an NPR interview with him.

If memory serves, he wrote this while his wife (or girlfriend) was dying of cancer.

And if memory doesn't serve, my humble apologies.

I wants.  iTunes no has.  Why?

The memories of a man in his old age
Are the deeds of a man in his prime 

presage 

The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.

Amazingly prescient for men so young.
