Rain On The Scarecrow

Honky cat.

And number 11, John Mellencamp, rain on the scarecrow.

Those poor scarecrow, scarecrows, they get rained on all the time, left out in the cornfields.

Clown in a Cornfield.

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, "Paper and Fire," "R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.", "Lonely Old Night," ain't even done with the night, all kinds of songs about the night.

Uh, "Rain on the Scarecrow" from the wonderful album Scarecrow.

Uh, [whistles] dude's talented, so need to work on him politically, but, uh, happy birthday, John Mellencamp, at the age of 75.

So I didn't necessarily envision, uh, making today the...

yeah.

So Scarecrow spawned five singles, Lonely All Night, Small Town, R-O-C-K in the USA, Rain on the Scarecrow and Rumble Seat were the five singles.

But I remember, I mean the song Minutes to Memories, that's a song that I remember well.

Um, I think my brother is the one that had this album.

But these two are just the definition of banger.

And I went back, I had the other one ranked number one, but I'm going to go to this one now because it's from Scarecrow and because of that connection.

So I love Rain on the Scarecrow, my number one pick.

Son, I'm just sorry

I do.

It was a song that was brought to my attention a few weeks ago, one that I really had paid no attention to, but it's Rain on the Scarecrow.

Yeah.

John Mellencamp.

I must say, I do rather like the way John "The Cougar" Mellencamp talks about and sings about American country things.

Rain on the Scarecrow, things like that.

Real life experiences.

How they can put that to music is just magnificent
