Favorite opening lines

Sometimes I wonder what a band with Danny Kirwan and Stevie Nicks together would've been like, lots of hippie mysticism and lyrics nabbed from long dead poets. I also like "The magic of a blackened night, can go so far but not seem right" which I think is my favorite DK song.

Yes! This thread made me realize that the songs of those two hit me in a very similar way. It's not a comparison I'd ever picked up on before. But I agree completely. DK is just brilliant. Did they ever meet?

I don't know, Kirwan wasn't at the hall of fame ceremony though and he seems pretty hard to track down. Maybe someone else knows.
