brilliant song writer. This song is one of the most clever songs written; clever and accurate..........


My mom bought the vinyl LP of that album when it was released. Lots of good songs that as a young kid you don't appreciate until you're older and understand what he was saying in the lyrics.

Crap. Genuinely good dude. Will always remember him sticking up for Sinead O’Connor. RIP.

“I was not about to do that,” said Kristoffersonin 2010 on the Irish television show Saturday Night with Miriam. “I went out and I said ‘Don’t let the bastards get you down,’ and she said ‘I’m not down,’ and she sang. It was very courageous. It just seemed to me wrong, booing that little girl out there, but she’s always had courage.”

Yes, there was the music, and the acting, but there was also the Rhodes Scholar, the Army Ranger, the helicopter pilot, the man who was offered a teaching position in English at West Point, the Gold Gloves Boxer.....
