Lost Highway.....

I am back again, by now loyalist of my blog would understand that my mind works on its own quirks & hence the irregularity of blog entries......but i assure that it will be a fun read when the updates come by (atleast for the one or two of you...heh!). You guys would have also figured out by now that music has been an integral part of me n more often than not you will find blog entries relating to song titles or some or the other relation to songs....though i thoroughly suck at makin up my own songs (If you didnt figure these out yet then..well...DOH!!)
This title refers to the song 'Lost Highway' by Bon Jovi. While as a band their music struck me as youthful adoloscent n even mushy (treading the thin line between rock n pop rock rather), this is perhaps one of the recent road songs or highway song that i like. The mention here is pretty much in relation to the road trip i had last month to the south. road trips are enjoyable than the train trips by a mile (i should know.....trust me on this one). but the road trips with family would be a lot less fun considering the fact that they maintain serious log books of the trip and have a schedule for everything. this song was also featured on the OST-Wild Hogs, which is again about road trips. So thats the common realtion bit.
Mine was a good trip, as far as road trips go. Beaches, hills, valleys, mist, searing heat, chilling cold......it was all there. The drive was amazing...... amazing enough to forget the worries momentarily to be lost in the moment...... the true spirit of the Lost Highway. Makes much sense....
There has been a lot thats happend during my break from the blog entries... more on those in the successive blogs.... till then I leave you with the lyrics of Lost Highway.....See if you find the sense in it.....

"Lost Highway"

In my rearview mirror

My life is getting clearer

The sunset sighs and slowly disappears

These trinkets once were treasure

Life changes like the weather

You grow up, grow old or hit the road 'round here

So I drive, watching white lines passing by

With my plastic dashboard Jesus, waiting there to greet us

Hey, hey, I finally found my way

Say goodbye to yesterday

Hit the gas there ain't no brakes on the lost highway

Yeah I'm busting loose, I'm letting go

Out on this open road

It's independence day on this lost highwayI

don't know where I'm going

But I know where I've been

Now I'm afraid of going back again

So I drive, years and miles are flying by

And waiting there to great usIs my plastic dashboard Jesus

Oh patron saint of lonely souls

To tell this boy which way to go

Guide the car, you got the keys

Farewell to mediocrity

Kicking off the cruise-control

And turning up the radio

Got just enough religion

And a half tank of gas come on, let's go

I finally found my way

Say goodbye to yesterday

Hit the gas there ain't no brakes on the lost highway

Yeah I'm busting loose, I'm letting go

Out on this open road

It's independence day on this lost highway
