Jerry Lee Lewis Don't Ride In No Chevy​

 
“Middle Age Crazy” is my newest favorite from The Killer. I like the mandolin at the beginning. I don’t know anything about the mandolin, so I don’t know if I could play it. I don’t even know how many strings it has.

He’s like Keith Richards. With his lifestyle, how is he still living? Maybe we got it all wrong. Maybe it’s better to drink yourself silly and eat whatever.

I never listened to his music or cared for that he married his 13 year old cousin. He played at a motel my husband worked at in his younger days and my husband loved him. He would literately stomp the piano's into smithereens which I never cared for but I guess that was part of his "act".

Absolutely never liked him. I liked Elvis and Buddy, but never Jerry Lee. Just like I liked Chuck Berry but never Little Richard. Never impressed by his music. Never had him in my music collection, be it vinyl, cassette, or CD. Buddy Holly on the other hand, was a true legend. I had his music in my collection on every format. I miss him more than any other music act, singer or band.

I've always suspected that Jerry Lee Lewis's only good year was 1957. This proves it.

I never liked him either. And then he married his 13 year old cousin when he was 22. What kind of dude does that? :sick:
