Grab a drink and a snack. We're traveling back to this week in 1978 for another Casey Kasem American Top 40 flashback (#AT40). Saturday Night Fever was #1 at the box office. Who will be #1 on the pop chart?
Listen to Casey on SXM 70s, and follow this 🧵 to find out.
Chuck Mangione starts us off at #40 with a debut, "Feels So Good". #AT40
I should take pics of the feral cat colony that my family created here in my backyard. But feral cat colonies aren't good for nature. And I'm ashamed.
My dad was a bird watcher and hunter, and he'd feed the feral cats and feed the birds at the same time.. I called it Thunderdome
It's Father's Day, and it's not like my dad designed this. My sis had a boyfriend who had a cat and went outside, and things kind of spiraled from there.
And really, if you keep the cats fed, they don't bother hunting birds. Cats are lazy as shit. 🤣

Why boasteth thyself
Oh, he-vil man
Playing smart
And not being clever, oh, no
I said you're working iniquity
To achieve vanity, yeah, if a-so a-so
But the goodness of Jah-Jah
I-dureth for-i-ver🎤
If you are the big tree
We are the small axe
Sharpened to cut you down (Well sharp)
Ready to cut you down, oh, yeah 🎤
These are the words
Of my master, keep on telling me, oh
No weak heart shall prosper, oh, no, they can't, eh, eh 🎤

Well, I'm going out west down on the coast
Where the California girls are really the most
And I'll walk and they'll walk
I'll twist and they'll twist
And I'll shimmy and they'll shimmy
And I'll fly and they'll fly
Well we're out there having fun
In the warm California sun 🎤

"People with BPD may feel emotions with greater ease and depth and for a longer time than others do." 🤷
I go months without reading the Wikipedia entry for BPD, but I haven't minded reading this current one.. so far.. I'm only a bit into it.
Keith Richards' version of "Pressure Drop" is fun.
I say, pressure drop, oh, pressure
Oh yeah, pressure going to drop on you
I say, a pressure drop, oh, pressure
Oh yeah, pressure going to drop on you
I say, when it drops, oh, you gonna feel it 🎤💜🇯🇲

My favorite thing that I've fuckin' heard from Gen X parents?
"My sons aren't racist. They're amazing."
And meanwhile, I listen to all these teenagers and twenty year olds say racist shit on Discord and gaming apps.
You Gen X parents do not have any idea..
SOMEONE IS BIRTHING THESE RACIST KIDS THAT I HEAR ON VIDEOGAMES
I've been out walking
I don't do too much talking these days
These days
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do
And all the times I had
The chance to 🎤

Graceless
Is there a powder to erase this?
Is it dissolvable and tasteless?
You can't imagine how I hate this, graceless
I'm trying, but I'm graceless
I don't have the sunny side to face this
I am invisible and weightless
You can't imagine how I hate this, graceless 🎤

Get a little closer, let fold
Cut open my sternum, and pull
My little ribs around you
The lungs of me be crowns over you 🎤💜
That's how it starts
We go back to your house
You check the charts
And start to figure it out 🎤💜
