Favorite Songs of the Week

Here's the words to a song I just recently heard called Neon Moon by Brooks and Dunn. Obviously I have been in and out of country music over time since I would have never thought a song that was new to me was actually released in 1991.
Neon Moon by Brooks and Dunn
When the sun goes down
On my side of town
That lonesome feeling
Comes to my door
The whole world turns blue
There's a rundown bar
Cross the railroad tracks
I've got a table for two
Way in the back
Where I sit alone
And think of losing you
I spend most every night
Beneath the light
Of this neon moon
If you lose your one and only
There's always room here for
the lonely
To watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon
I think of two young lovers
Running wild and free
I close my eyes
And sometimes see
You in the shadows
Of this smoke-filled room
No telling how many tears
I've sat here and cried
Or how many lies
That I've lied
Telling my poor heart
She'll come back someday
Oh, but I'll be alright
As long as there's light
From a neon moon
If you lose your one and only
There's always room here for
the lonely
To watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon
The jukebox plays on
Drink by drink
The words of every sad song
Seem to say what I think
This hurt inside of me
Ain't never gonna end
Oh, but I'll be alright
As long as there's light
From a neon moon
If you lose your one and only
There's always room here for
the lonely
To watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon
To watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon
To watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon

Jess, I like Kelly Clarkson's version of "Because of You" too. In fact she sings on Reba's version of it as well. I couldn't avoid Reba's version on the trip to San Francisco. Everywhere I went it was playing so it became like the soundtrack for my trip. But I do understand what you mean about not ruining the other version. The first few times I heard Reba's version I wasn't even quite sure what was going on since her version sounds so much like Kelly's with a country music twang thrown in.

Here is the song that has been going around and around in my head almost all the time for the last couple of weeks. Play it five times in a row, and multiply that by a million to get a sense of the inside of my head. I wake up with it. Luckily, it's cute, but whew.
Holy cats and kittens...I would be a raving lunatic.....yikes My little brother used to listen to a record when we wwere kids, and it made me want to whip babies....guh........IT was called Rooty Kazooty and his root

My sister used to do that. She would have like 5 or 6 records and yes they were 45s. She is a little more than 10 years older than me and that doesn't have anything to do with 45s by the way. I grew up with the 45s too. I even collected them. Like I was telling Eric in SF I have probably around 6,000 of them. Eric has about that many too. We were talking about that at Mel's while we were talking about jukeboxes. He is probably the first person I have ever met who also has always wanted a jukebox, but he has one and I don't. Anyway I got off the subject which is typical of my past week :) So anyway my sister would play these same records over and over and over again. They became ingrained in my memory forever. She would literally play them until they were worn out. I actually still have these records. She gave me all of her records later on. Anyway, you can actually hear where the grooves are practically worn out. Now she had good taste. A lot of them were old Motown songs.

Sugarland's "Stay" is a cover version right? Do you remember who sang the original?
