Monday Morning, Jackson Browne worries about a fuel shortage.
Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels Looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields In ’65, I was 17 and running up 101 I don’t know where I’m running now, I’m just running on…
Monday morning starts with a cover of an Eagles classic. I have to say, I’m not a big Eagles fan, but Toni, Reina, Josh, and Carson do a fantastic job on this. With Andrew Foreman on bass. And the videography by Kelly Oden is really, really good as well.
Monday morning, Josh and Carson get locked out of their apartments.
In this cover of Vampire Weekend’s “Harmony Hall,” Josh figured that virtuoso singing and guitar-playing was too easy, so let’s throw in taking off and putting on the guitar capo a few times without losing a beat.
It’s a catchy song, but on reading about it, I found Chan dedicated the song to the memory of his deceased wife, Eleanor, the daughter of Walter Mondale, who died at 51.
Monday morning, Stevie Wonder at the age of 22 killing it on Sesame Street, of all places, with “Superstition.” Still great.

“Superstition”
Very superstitious, writings on the wall, Very superstitious, ladders ’bout to fall, Thirteen-months-old baby broke the lookin’ glass Seven years of bad luck, the good things in your past
When you believe in things that you don’t understand, Then you suffer, Superstition ain’t the way
Very superstitious, wash your face and hands, Rid me of the problem, do all that you can, Keep me in a daydream, keep me goin’ strong, You don’t wanna save me, sad is my song
When you believe in things that you don’t understand, Then you suffer, Superstition ain’t the way, yeah, yeah
Very superstitious, nothin’ more to say, Very superstitious, the devil’s on his way, Thirteen-months-old baby broke the lookin’ glass, Seven years of bad luck, good things in your past
When you believe in things that you don’t understand, Then you suffer, superstition ain’t the way, no, no, no
