Bodeans? YES links please so I can hear what you dig.
"Naked" sounds like it has fantastic lyrics. It reminds me of a first day back one year of high school and the progressive teacher asked us to spend the hour writing what we would like to be doing if we could be ANYwhere that moment with ANYone doing ANYthing we wished. I wrote "naked" without thinking of that as the title and I think blew him away. He had told us not to put our name on it but you just know he kept them all so he could compare the writing later and know us better.
Glad we're sharing about these things. I'm soon to hear music from a cool chick that I've never heard before.
Here is a cool, funny story about two radio DJs being punked by Mick Jagger and K. Richards way back in '64.

Here's Naked by the Bodeans, it's a song about being open and honest
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_gcfc8nEIZo
Baby, ask me anything that you want
And I'll look you in the eye now
There can be no surprises
If we mean what we say
I've been around the block
And I've done some things
That I ain't so very proud of
Darlin' help me leave this cloud of
Rolling lonely behind
Naked
I'll stand naked
If you stand naked with me
I'll stand naked with you
In the morning when I look in the mirror
I look twice at what I'm seeing
If those eyes are really me then
Lord, have mercy on my soul
I'm walking forward but I'm walking alone
And I need some understanding
Here, we all need some understanding
And I want you to know
My hands are shaking as I reach for the touch
And all I want to do is hold you
And I want to lose control
You are so easy to crave
The time has come for us to lay it all down
There can be no more denying
If I can't have you I'm dying
A little more every day
Naked
(Take me out from the shadow)
I'll stand naked
(Lead me down to the waters)
If you'll stand naked with me
(Drown my soul in a sea of love)
I'll stand naked with you
(Don't leave me haunted, 'cause)
Naked
(I believe in the searching)
I'll stand naked
(And I'll find my way through the darkness)
If you'll stand naked with me
(There are doors ahead if we see clear)
I'll stand naked with you
(They're falling open)

What a song! I mean I have not even heard these words put to music yet and I luv it already. Gotta return daughter's call but will then listen to it and post some more, I suspect.
Hope all's well with you and yours today.
RE: Shooting Star - Goldengirl - 05-09-2016
There's also "Good Things" and a song called "Do I Do" that are my favorites.

Good Things - the BoDeans
Sunlight fall down on the fields
Sunlight fall down over me
Work all day, be all that I can be yeah-heh
Say I can say words only simple
Say I can say words only clear
But, oh, I can feel your heart is beating near. Yeah-heh
Haunted love is all that I feel, when you're passing by
Haunted love is all that I see, it's there in your eyes
And I say
No, no, no, don't pass me over No, no, no, don't pass me by
See I can see good things for you and I
Yeah, good things for you
Give I can give love and attention
Give I can give all time away
Only to one heart I can give today.
Be I can be man full of color
Be I can be man black or white
But only to one heart I can be tonight
Haunted love is all that I feel, when you're passing by
Haunted love is all that I see, it's there in your eyes
And I say
No, no, no, don't pass me over No, no, no, don't pass me by
See I can see good things for you and I
Yeah, good things for you
Haunted love is all that I see, it's there in your eyes
And I say
No, no, no, don't pass me over No, no, no, don't pass me by
See I can see good things for you and I
Yeah, good things for you
Do I Do - the BoDeans
Do I, do I
Do I, do I
Do I, do I love you?
Yes
I do, I do
I do, I do
I do, I do, I love you
Angels falling in the streets tonight
Selling love in colors black and white
Reachin' out for the final touch, but
Sometimes, baby, well it's much too much
There you go again, you're riding ponies
You're takin' lovers for your one and only
But, sometime baby, you'll finally see
Ain't nobody for you like me
Well she kissed me softly, said "Now don't be shy
Just do what I said and don't you ask me why"
She kissed me
Once on the right side and
Once on the left now
I don't go lookin' for nobody else, I...

Goldengirl, I finally heard "Naked" before I crashed last night. Good tune with wise lyrics, yes!
RE: Shooting Star - Goldengirl - 05-10-2016
Don't know if they're still around or not but they are one of the best live bands I've ever seen. But I'm pretty open music-wise to what moves me. Never liked to be pigeonholed into a music category or fan group. But when I love it, I LOVE IT! And I can be quiet when I first meet someone, but singing in the car?! Don't care who sees me belting it out. Yeah, I'm one of "those people"! Can't say my voice is any good, but the energy I build up and let out is physically and psychically incredible. I would recommend it to anyone. Try it!
RE: Shooting Star - Nanny - 05-10-2016
Heck yeah I sing sometimes and occasionally I can't help but belt it out. Hubby brought me the phone a few months ago with a daughter calling for me. But he stood in the hallway where I couldn't see him and they both listened to me sing a song with gusto. Nah, I didn't care. I was "in my groove."
It's great to be carefree. I don't think I've arrived where I've sang heartily while at a traffic light with folks around me. Not saying I won't make it to that point. I want my inner-child to flourish but am slow at this sometimes.
Also agreed that no genre in music will ever own me, except "in the moment."
RE: Shooting Star - Goldengirl - 05-10-2016
A kindred soul! Love it!!!!
RE: Shooting Star - Nanny - 05-10-2016
Me too, chickie! NDC has gifted us all in so many ways, come to think of it.
"Home Is Where The Heart Is," sung by its owner, Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Man, this one moves my feet sometimes, my heart always.

RE: Shooting Star - Elyse - 05-12-2016
Oh my gosh! I am LOVING all of these songs! Thank you guys for sharing them! My youtube playlist is getting pretty big now!
Here's another one I found more RECENTLY and fell in love with. May or may not be for you, depending on how you want to interpret it. It's a high powered-fight song! If you liked "When Worlds Collide" You might like this.
The Phoenix!

RE: Shooting Star - Goldengirl - 05-12-2016
Another good one is Sun King by the Cult. Guitar in the beginning gives me goosebumps every time. Like to play the opening over and over. Hahaha!!!!
