Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Wind Cries Mary (Jimi Hendrix)
Subject: RE: Wind/Sky crying 'Mary'?
Hendrix had one of the worst verses he ever wrote in The Wind Cries Mary when he said "The traffic lights they turn on blue tomorrow/And rain in emptiness down on my head/The tiny island sags downstream/Cause the life it lived is... is dead" He did redeem this tripe with an amazing guitar break,as usual.
