A while back, I posted a recorded television performance of Ready to Go by Republica. The official 1997 music video of the song is posted below. I like Saffron, and her energy, voice, and style. She had lots of pep and pizazz in the 90s. She had it going on back then.

Ready to Go

Quote from: icystorm on Jun 21, 2026, 05:36 PM@Elvis Nash — This is another solid track, man. The music sounds rooted in older country, but with a modern country vibe, mix, and production. The bass and kick patterns fit a sub-genre of country from the early to mid 70s called swamp music. Good stuff! Excellent vocals and cool lyrics, too. The best lines are:

Neither one was lookin' for forever
Just tryin' to outrun the weather

Nice work! Keep cranking them out!

I can imagine Hank Williams Jr. belting this one out during the intro to Monday Night Football.

Ha Ha Hank was always in trouble , I can relate . thanks . You pussies whoever he was talking to back then , long time ago . He still tours I guess , 78 or something. Can you imagine the shadow he lived under with his dad being Hank.

if you survive 4 divorces , You should have your faced carved out on Mount Rushmore. Even George Washington can not compete with that .

LOL! Yeah, I've seen what you described countless times in the world over the years, man. I've been blessed because the women in my life have always been sugar and spice and everything nice. My angel now is a keeper. She's the right one and the best of all. Better than I deserve.

Hello!

You guys can call me Adam—just my online name haha.

But I've been in and out of these for for years, just sending in lyrics, hoping to get some feedback. One of them became a song! (So kind of a dream come true.)

But yeah, want to get back into songwriting. Hopefully, I get to find a like-minded songwriter who can work with me to make a few ideas become full-fledged songs.

This is a cool and enjoyable song from Marissa Nadler. I like her voice and style.

 Verse 1
She walked in wearin' cutoff jeans
Too young to know what lonely means
Iukebox hummin', neon buzz
She smiled like trouble always does

I told myself, "Boy, don't you start"
But whiskey don't listen to the heart
She danced like smoke through this old lobby
Said, "Older men are just hobbies"

Chorus
And younger women are just hobbies too
Temporary flames that burn right through
One more barstool love song gone wrong
One more midnight ride before the dawn
We call it freedom, call it livin' wild
But it's lonely when the laughter dies
Yeah, we're all somebody's almost probably
Young girls and old cowboys — just hobbies

Verse 2
She liked my scars and silver hair
Ssaid I smelled like Marlboro and despair
I liked her boots, her reckless grin
Both knew this thing was sink-or-swim

She talked about Austin, Nashville nights
I talked about prison fights
Neither one was lookin' for forever
Just tryin' to outrun the weather

Chorus
And younger women are just hobbies too
Temporary flames that burn right through
One more backroad kiss in a Chevrolet
One more promise we won't keep anyway
We call it freedom, call it bein' free
But freedom ain't what it used to be
Yeah, hearts get broke so casually
Young girls and old cowboys — just hobbies

Bridge
When the lights came on at closin' time
She laughed and said, "You'll cross my mind"
Then disappeared into the Tennessee rain
Like every good thing does the same

Final Chorus
And younger women are just hobbies too
Ain't nobody here lookin' for the truth
Just strangers leanin' on lonely nights
Tryin' to make wrong feel right
But somewhere out beyond these bars
There's still real love for broken hearts
Till then we spin these sad philosophies
Young girls and old cowboys — just hobbies

Quote from: Elvis Nash on Jun 14, 2026, 04:58 PMWell a few divorces thats quite common Icy. Very good lines ....And there are no lies in Heaven
There are no truths in Hell

Thanks, Elvis. Yeah, what you described has inspired maybe a billion songs from happy, to sad, to hateful.

In William Congreve's 1697 play, The Mourning Bride, A Tragedy, he wrote:

Heav'n has no Rage, like Love to Hatred turn'd,
Nor Hell a Fury, like a Woman scorn'd.

In modern times, people usually restate the old English lines from the play as: Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

For relaxation, it's a pleasure to listen to the very talented and lovely Ana Vidovic playing classical guitar.
