  • Well I've been out walking
    I don't do that much talking these days
    These days--
    These days I seem to think a lot
    About the things that I forgot to do
    For you
    And all the times I had the chance to
    And I had a lover
    It's so hard to risk another these days
    These days--
    Now if I seem to be afraid
    To live the life I have made in song
    Well it's just that I've been losing so long
    I'll keep on moving
    Things are bound to be improving these days
    These days--
    These days I sit on corner stones
    And count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend
    Don't confront me with my failures
    I had not forgotten them

    I am grieving right now, not only a death, and a lost lover, but something deeper. I can’t fully name it right now. Could it be America? Could it be so much perennial war? Could it be the planet and how we have made such as stain on it? Could it be some kind of ancient epigenetic tragedy that is inside my genome that I just innocently inherited? It’s partly about something about being alive in the moment right now in 2024. Somehow this song and the tenderness and compassion that it represents - and the sensitivity of the playing and how David Lindley makes that pedal steel cry with that distortion/edge creeping in just nails the sentiment. Thank you, you guys for playing it and for posting it.

      David Lindley. A magician. I've heard that he can play any instrument that has strings, even if he has never played it before. He is a masterful musician. He so much enhanced Jackson's music.

    Best performance of the song I have heard. For me, Jackson came into his own around this time - his voice, the power of his songs were being fully owned by him, while still remaining humble. A difficult balance to find when you become a superstar.

    Saw Jackson in ‘75 at Amphitheatre in Chicago. I remember David didn’t play the slide guitar break and outro exactly the same as on the album for These Days, my fave off For Everyman. I remember telling my friend “well it was great but not as good as the album version”. I later saw an interview with David, where he said he never - couldn’t - do it the exact same way each time. That just wasn’t the way his genius rolled. That says so much about how connected he was to the music and the moment. And I think he laid it down perfectly for the album. One of the best ever in no small part to his playing. RIP Prince of Polyester, you are legendary bro!

    I had the privilege to see him in Adelaide Australia in early 80's and have been an avid fan ever since. It's true what lots of people say about him being a poet....absolutely. I couldn't get the Pretender" Album of the Year" on the turn table quickly enough and even now with the CD as well i also have it in my ITUNES play list. At the time David Lindley was with him it was magical.

He wrote that at 16... can you believe that? I just can't imagine someone at that age who could've written that phrase... it's a prodigy songwriter for sure... a poet.
