There are songs we've gone our whole lives without hearing and the best song we've ever heard might still be out there. (lemmy.ml)

I loved the original in my youth

To be fair, I'm in my mid 20s which may still be "youth". I do see how the cover can speak more with more challenges in life. I do also love "Thank you for the offer" by Chip Taylor and it gives me a similar feeling to Cash's Hurt.

I'm not yucking your yum one bit. Wouldn't take it that way. Besides, Cash's version is also "my yum", just not more than the original :)

I hope life has given and continues to give you more to smile about.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----
