    My Dad loved this tune. His funeral was today and the bullets hit the bones when his casket was closed and I realized that today was the last time I will ever see him again, at least in this life... His sins are forgiven and may he now be back again with my Mother, the Love of his life...

      Dude there wouldn't be a lot of sense arguing over something that is technically subjective. Because your opinion can vary from others on this. But at the end of the day if you want to objectify or quantify this you can take things like most number one songs ever produced or most record sales ever and golden earring is way way down both of those lists lmao

When I waited tables there back in the early 90's, there were many weekend nights when "... there's a storm on the loose, sirens in my head ... my whole life spins into a frenzy." I loved it.

      'If you would open your mind to Me, You won't need open Eyes to See.' These coincidence's after coincidence's add up to Fact.
      'We will Order the Engines and Judge the Angels.'
      This is what happens throughout our lives. We are the Engines, being Ordered. We are the Chosen Ones. The odd coincidence's we encounter are hints of Spiritual Guidance, Protection, Divine Intervention, timed events that are Written and planned out before they occur in our own Reality. Free will decides our actions and reactions to Temptations, which in turn, ensure or change our Individual Destinies. But our Minds are influenced by a higher power and our thoughts are not our Own. We are fished around by the Spirit Word and have been since the day we were Born. To Realize this will test your Sanity, but how else could it be Done?
      And if there is no Afterlife, all we do and work for Means Nothing at All and we should all just lay down and Die. We would be unable to do that because the only reason to live would be to avoid facing the Fear of Death and being "Dead."
      "Strange to see, and quite a coincidence indeed, to cross paths with that person NOW.". sometimes almost like perfect timing..
      Drop the remote and the time you use to pick it up allows Someone else to Catch up.
      Interesting to cut yourself while thinking of "that.". It is a Time stamp. A point in time that can be Documented by a higher power. "If you drop a dime, spit, shit, bleed a drop or bleed out, I can Rewind Time and Realign." Multiverse... Mirror image's of our Reality used to tweak and adjust our History and Life's Journey's, that ensure Grand Design. It prevents failure and ensures Everlasting Life.
      The Judge's in the Courtrooms and All who Seek validation, and retribution through compensation by using lawsuits, lawyers and Self Representation are the Angels.
      After death, these "Angels" get Judged because they have judged or sought judgement against fellow Mankind through the eyes of Mankind.
      Even if you are positive you have been done wrong, it is dishonering GOD to seek retribution in anyway other than by trying to recover your losses directly from the source of your grievance. If you are unsuccessful in convincing and recovering your losses in this manner, and killing can not be Justified, simply accept your losses. There is nothing here tangible that is of value to God. It is the intangibles that contain all that Matter. The thieves will be Judged for dishonesty and their lack of Integrity.
      The Kingdom of God is Pure and not necessarily the first and only Kingdom that our Souls can be sent to.
      Imagine a variety of Spiritual Realities. Being delivered into a Kingdom that Teaches liars why lying is Forbidden, or why Stealing, as defined by God, is a Sin, or a Kingdom that Teaches, as all lessons are always taught, in the most effective way, why adultery is a Sin as well.
      Pure trickery, with Safety, Eternal Life and love secretly deceived. The Betrayal will be hidden until the trap has absorbed the damned Soul up to the last drop.
      Think about it if you aren't to scared. If you are full of Fear, thinking will continue to get harder to do. Dementia and Altzhiemer's disease might overtake your Mind.
      Beacon has been moved under the moon and stars? The connection has been Lost? No it is Never lost. Meditate to reconnect. Tune back into the correct "Note of Music."
      It is 'THE FIDDLER ON THE ROOF.' Take Care.

I still don't get tired of this catchy tune!!!! I love the bridge of the song!!! I like that the lead guitarist chose to play a bluesy type solo instead of a loud and fast and flashy solo(Van Halen style).☺😊😄 In the early 80s it was common for guitar players to play fast and flashy guitar solos!!!

    I love that when this song breaks down, it doesn’t turn into some weird progressive rock experiment. They break that shit down and build it back up and the end of the song is the best damn part. That’s pretty rare for this era lol
