Me and Bryan Adams

Bryan Adams and I have been pretty good friends for a long time.  Bryan even asked me to help him write the theme song for the Canadian Olympics some years back.  We wrote this awesome song in celebration of Canada called, "Jam-anada," but then Nelly Furtado came along and bumped me from the project.  The end result: "Bang the Drum," which actually kind of rocks once you go through it a couple times.

Not much of a story, but I thought I would share it since I'd been thinking of some lyrics from another of Bryan's songs: "Have you ever really loved a woman." After a night of partying and deep philosophical discussion, Bryan and I agreed that "Have you ever really loved a woman" was his opus:

My favorite sequence with my critique in parentheses:

When you love a woman you tell her that she’s really woman
     (Show don't tell.  When I love a woman, I show her she's really a woman)
When you love a woman you tell her that she’s the one
     (Again, one must show her she's the one, although one-ness can be fleeting)
She needs somebody to tell her that it’s gonna last forever
     (I need at least about four women in the room with me if I'm even going to get near to
     lasting forever)
So tell me have you ever really really, really ever loved a woman?
     (Perfect line.)
