"Arent Bruce Hornsby and the Range just magical?"

No! You're talking about the ultimate Bonnie Raitt record! You're saying he played piano on that! Oh my god. Oh no. Oh no.

Oh yes.

Oh, Bimb's gone off bang...

I forgot how "Look Out Any Window" & "Every Little Kiss" sounded. I didn't realize that I would remember these songs. Near the end of the latter, I got this lightbulb over my head - "oh I remember this!"

Fantastic stuff, in my opinion.

But there's a song on Scenes From The Southside ("Defenders Of The Flag", I think) where all of a sudden he sounds like he's trying to ape Dylan! I laughed on the bus. Well at least you can't say the album doesn't have variety! LOL

"Look Out Any Window" & "Every Little Kiss", they're holding my skeleton upright.

I get lost sometimes, and I feel afraid, but if I just go back to those two Bruce Hornsby songs then I'm okay again.

Every little kiss ....man that guitar lead.

Bruce Hornsby and the Range Against the Machine

Ha!

"That's just the way it is, MOTHERFUCKER!"

On a rail replacement bus to London from Stansted airport, Magic fm on the coach driver's radio, first notes of a new song, woman in front of me turns excitedly to her boyfriend: 'Oh, I *love* this song'. It was this:

I remember when it felt important to snicker at other people for the music they enjoyed.

So 'The Way It Is' and S'cenes From The Southside' are missing from Spotify, had to resort to Youtube to hear Mandolin Rain for the first time in 20 odd years.

Plus, in the video BH looked like a weird hybrid of at least four actors, Paul Reiser, William Hurt and idk..?

lol u just been made milk monitor or something?

bimble otm re: the valley road

One of my earliest memories is my parents playing Bruce Hornsby and the Range in the car during summer trips to visit family and me being almost unthinkably bored. To this day I associate "The Way It Is" with the Pennsylvania turnpike.

Burn yr elbow if you lean on mm.

What was with 90s rappers sampling 'The Way It Is'?

RIP Ezra's hair

.@BruceHornsby's got a new album coming, and the lead single features @VampireWeekend's @arzE and @_BlakeMills https://t.co/TjIx1fA39l

I'm a massive Blake Mills stan but I'm still not clicking on this track

Too many times in the waiting room of my dentist's office listening to "that's just the way it is" or "mandolin rain"

constantly mix up this dude with Bruce Cockburn

this isn't bad at all but it doesn't particularly do anything for me either

as an aside, Cockburn is great

A music writer ILXor once came to see my band, many years ago, and said he really liked it and it reminded him of Bruce Cockburn, which was good, because he really liked Bruce Cockburn. I was confused for a while and thought he meant Bruce Hornsby, and couldn't for the life of me figure out how my sort of thrill jockeyish alt country band sounded like Bruce Hornsby.

Bruce Hornsby’s last album SUCKED, there’s a song calls “pills” on it

stealing fire is really solid

You mean "Meds"? I actually thought that album was decent, but the one he released after that was definitely worse.

“meds”, yeah. he seemed to be doing some wack soulful thing I wasn’t feeling. But I only heard the album once.

Ezra Koenig is now one degree of separation from Don Henley.

Expect an ill cover of "If Dirt Were Dollars" on the next VW tour.

I like Bruce Hornsby, yes. Magical - sometimes.
