"some friends of mine and me stayed up all through the night, rockin' pretty steady 'till the sky went light and didn't go to bed, didn't go to work, I pick up the telephone, tell your boss he was a jerk ..." from 'Everything That's Rock And Roll' by Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers, possibly the finest opening lines of the finest rock song by the finest rock band ever!

Kirstykitten, I'm sure that is the first line to 'Chelsea Hotel' What do you think it should be?? Good to find another fan, my friends & family think I must be either a bit wierd or a manic depressive to like LC but I think it's beautiful music.

1) Hello darkness, my old friend, I've come to talk with you again - S&G. 2) I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm, your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm - dear ol' Lenny. 3) I am a little tin soldier that wants to jump into your fire, you are a look in your eye, a dream passing by in the sky - Small Faces. 4) You wore a little cross of gold around your neck, I saw it as you flew between my reason - Elton. 5) I wake up every morning and that's my first mistake, from thereon in it's downhill all the way - Quo. Oh, and Kelvin is right about 'Chelsea Hotel', kirstykitten.
