Covid sing along...The Waiting

[2HOTinPHX]

Too much time on my hands at work.... So I updated a Tom Petty song for the current times...what do you think?


Oh baby it don't feel like heaven right now
It feels like were living in a dream
Yeah we've never known nothing quite like this
Don't it feel like this isolation will never end
We should know better than to try and pretend
Baby no one could'a ever told me 'bout this ****
I said Oh no...OH NO

[Chorus:]
The waiting is the hardest part
Every day your stuck in your yard
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
Hope the waiting is the hardest part

Well yeah I had to chase some toilet paper around
And all the empty shelves got me down
Then there some days that make me feel good
But never as good as having TP right now
Pretty sure we're not the only ones that's ever known that
We Don't wanna live like were living right now
I said Oh no...OH NO

[Chorus:]
The waiting is the hardest part
Every day your stuck in your own yard
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
Hope the waiting is the hardest part

Oh don't let Corona kill you baby, don't let it get to you
Don't let it kill you baby, don't let Corona get to you
I'll be social isolating, and you should too
Don't let this spread too far
Don't let Corona get to you

Love love love Tom Petty (one of my few regrets is that I didn't see him in concert) and I love love love this! You are one creative soul.

Love it! well done.

You know, Petty's "Don't Come Around Here No More" could be a nice bookend.

I was just realizing there have been a lot of songs about this.

Who can forget The Knack's hit "My Carona".

Or Dolly Parton's classic "Quarantine". You know:

"Quarantine, Quarantine, Quarantine, Quarantine-een.

Don't make me stay home just because you can..."

Or Three Dog Night's memorable "Isolate" as in:

"Slippin away-ee. Sleeping on my pillow.

Waitin' for the lab tech to call.

It's a bad dre-eam...

Hope I'm not sick-no!

Wasting time...
....can't travel for Christmas at all!

Got my nose swabbed...

Isn't it a pity

No last minute shopping mall...

Canceled my tickets...

Do it online..

... don't need to call...

Thank goodness, no change fees...

Won't fly see my family at all!

Stay home tonight...

It's so lonely...

No going home to be with the family...so

...Facetime only...

Chorus:

Isolate!
Isolate!

Don't want to be...sick

Isolate!
Isolate!

I'm asymptoma-tic..."

JD and Monte, those are great! You should do a recording next and post it here. You may have hits on your hands!
Happy Holidays.

PS. If any of you are Jazz fans, Dave Koz is releasing his band's Christmas Concert from 2020, tomorrow on You Tube. It should be great!

LOL....I just sent mine to Mike Campbell's management team...

My Corona has been playing in my head..might have to put pen to paper on that one. Also how about Steely Dan "hey Covid 19"

Thanks, yes Tom Petty was one of the great ones for sure. Glad we still have Youtube for old videos.
