Those are dad rock now? I grew up with many of those... I'm a dad now but I thought dad rock is Metallica, ACDC, Led Zeppelin, Hurriganes, et cetera
The unstoppable, never ending march of time is much darker than anyone could sing about.
Pink Floyd did it:
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain
And you are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
Sun is the same, in a relative way, but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught, or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say
My favorite Pink Floyd song.
Satisfies both the unstoppable, never ending march of time AND dad rock: Time by Pink Floyd
Yeah agreed, although I would consider Pink Floyd grandpa rock at this point
Okay grampa let's get you to bed
I think that's the joke.
Same. I'm a huge In Flames fan and having a slight panic after reading that.
I saw them open for… Unearth I believe? I had never heard In Flames before that show. LOVED them.
Dire Straits, Pink Floyd, Steely Dan, Queen...
