mils will appreciate this.. I think.. because I'm going to mention his Dodgers.
Has anyone ever heard a song.. that.. is about one subject.. but makes you think of something else.. because of where you heard it.. or.. what it might be associated with?
Case in point.,. to explain.
Don Henley's song "The Boys Of Summer". I remember exactly where I heard that song for the first time. It was in May of 1985, at Shea Stadium, at a baseball game, with my friend Adam, and our fathers. Dwight Gooden was pitching against Fernando Valenezula that day, and the Dodgers won the game.
Before I saw the video to that song,. I could have sworn that the Shea Stadium PA system was playing the song, to emphasize baseball, and how baseball players are often called
"The Boys Of Summer".
If one watches the video of the song, however, it looks like it was filmed at a beach, and Henley seems to be emphasizing the difference in the environment of the beach, when the
"Boys of Summer" are filling the beach.
As opposed to when the beach is empty.
It would seem that when Henley did the song, he would have been thinking of the beach, and not baseball.
Yet, it still seems a perfect song to play at a baseball game, since baseball players are referred to as "Boys of Summer".
Thoughts?
