A Lion in Winter


A lesser known Bee Gee's song . . . I have "roared" along to this many a times in my drinking days. No idea  why, but there was something I connected with about being a "Lion in Winter" . . . I'm not even sure what it means. I didn't care. It was a good song to belt out. I have a story about it . . . A new year's story too but I will have to come back later with it as there are hungry lion cubs to feed . . . Catch yer later

  2. My friend and I were BeeGees crazy - the stuff before the unfortunate disco phase - and I never heard this one. There was a book - not a classic - out at the same time that they made a (probably tv) movie on. They never explained what the title meant either.

  3. Furtheron,
    Yes brilliant voices. I wasn't keen until I lived with a BG fan who introduced me to a lot of the older stuff . . . I was quite impressed.

    Yes this even pre-dates the pre-(unfortunate)disco stuff. Very talented family. Some of the really old tracks, in my opinion, are the best.

    Thanks, Im looking forward to reading more of yours . . . Just wish I had more time to read, to write, to think. Im still trying to find a space in local school for my 4 yr old daughter . . Then I will have more time :-) Until the powers that be insist I take the first crappy job going. Well see about that. Take care.
