I Know I'm Not Wrong - Liddy Buck

[sodascouts]

I was listening to the instrumental of "I Know I'm Not Wrong" on the Remasters and all of the sudden I found the tune of "Liddy Buck" by John Stewart going along to it in my head. I had no idea before how close it was. Guess JS REALLY REALLY wanted to sound like LB!

? I'd have to listen to that one again.
I do remember one of the demo's sounding just like John Stewart's "Running in the Shadows", but that's because LB actually plays on that song.

Hey! So Liddy Buck is a Stewart song?! I had no idea that is where fans got the nickname for Lindsey! I just figured fans had made it up themselves! Forgive me, I'm not familiar with Stewart's catalog. Is it actually about Lindsey, or did fans just decide it would be a cool nickname for him based on the song title and his association with Stewart? I'm assuming it's an actual song about Lindsey...I can't see what else Liddy Buck could be.:cool:

The song was written in response to Lindsey's song on Law and Order called Johnny Stew. Here are the lyrics.

You gotta keep running 'cause you can't go back
Everybody's looking for a home
You know you had it all but it had to fall
When you said that you'd go it alone
You'd go it alone

Neither love nor money gonna keep you away
You can't stop the rolling of a stone
Take that, leave that, running on the same track
It's hard you know, hmmmmmm
When you go it alone
A whole lotta luck to you, Liddy Buck
A whole lotta luck to you, Liddy Buck
When you go it alone

And it's been too long
It's gone too far
Go tear down the sky for a star

A whole lotta luck to you, Liddy Buck
A whole lotta luck to you, Liddy Buck
A whole lotta luck to you, Liddy Buck

You gotta keep running 'cause you can't go back
Everybody's looking for a home
You know you had it all but it had to fall
When you said that you'd go it alone
You'd go it alone

And it's been too long
It's gone too far
Go tear down the sky for a star
A whole lotta luck to you, Liddy Buck
A whole lotta luck to you, Liddy Buck

And it's been too long
It's gone too far
Go tear down the sky for a star
A whole lotta luck to you, Liddy Buck
A whole lotta luck to you, Liddy Buck

A whole lotta luck to you, Liddy Buck

My deepest gratitudes to the Lindsey Educational Task Force.:nod:

I listened to Liddy Buck last night, and it does sound like another IKINW-demo!

[shackin'up]

It's almost incredible how this song could have been build out of a IKINW demo.

Even the crispy guitarparts sound like Lindsey all the way.

We think we got the connection...John admired Lindsey!!!
Good friends...as young Lindsey plays with John on stage...
grinning like crazy with his family in the audience!!! (*0*)
