and the Proclaimers walked 500 miles and then walked 500 more from the opposite direction, where would they both meet up with the midnight train to georgia?

How does the red-eye to Dallas-Ft. Worth factor in?

What about the downtown train, where every night it's just the same?

lee4hmz · 2017-02-06 20:42:06

Or the morning train, which your baby takes to work from 9 to 5, then back again?

yes I AM trying to get that song stuck in your head

my dad sings this whenever he takes me to the train station in the morning, trufax

Tom Waits is a better decision here, methinks.

Tom Waits is also not super popular. I think if most people know "Downtown Train" they unfortunately only know Rod Stewart's version.

Which, I'm not normally in the "covers are automatically worse" boat, but yikes.

It's a serviceable, upbeat cover of a rather sad song where the original is simply brilliant.

if he keeps waiting around how is he ever gonna get downtown

Sredni Vashtar · 2017-02-06 21:58:41

Where all the lights are bright, waiting for you tonight.

I actually like hate that version.

And it's not that I don't like Rod Stewart, I think he has some good songs (also he was sampled by A$AP Rocky once, isn't that weird?).

the train

it's like you didn't even listen to the song or something gawd

I haven't listened to that cover, but if it doesn't have that great guitar part, it probably sucks.
