Summer of 69
I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it til my fingers bled
It was the summer of 69Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Jody got married
I shoulda known we’d never get farOh when i look back now – that summer seemed to last forever
And if i had the choice – ya – I’d always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my lifeAin’t no use in complainin’
When you got a job to do
Spent my evenin’s down at the drive-in
And that’s when i met youStandin’ on your mama’s porch – you told me that you’d wait forever
Oh and when you held my hand – i knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life – back in the summer of 69Man we were killin’ time – we were young and restless
We needed to unwind – i guess nothin’ can last foreverAnd now the times are changin’
Look at everything that’s come and gone
Sometimes when i play that old six-string
I think about ya wonder what went wrongStandin’ on your mama’s porch – you told me it would last forever
Oh the way you held my hand – i knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life – back in the summer of 69. -

SUMMER of 69-BRYAN ADAMS
Bryan Adams – Wembley Live 1996
It was July 27th 1996 and a sell-out crowd in excess of 70,000 welcomed Bryan Adams to Wembley Stadium on his “18 ‘Til I Die Tour” in support of the multi-platinum album of the same name. “18 ‘Til I Die” had been released a few weeks earlier and hit the No.1 spot on the UK Albums Chart and gone Top 5 right around Europe. The show opened with the album’s first hit single “The Only Thing That Looks Good On Me Is You” and straight away the stage was set for an energetic, hit packed performance which was received with wild enthusiasm by the huge crowd. This is a legendary show for Bryan Adams fans and is now finally being released on ALL FORMATS for the first time.
