The Wind, 2003
Written by Warren Zevon
Zevon's "bad boy" persona, probably honestly come by, is on display here, but in a more reflective mood. The narrator muses on his maverick nature, his reluctance to toe the line. "Some days I feel like my shadow's casting me." Is he the owner of his wild side, or is his wild nature leading him? It's a lonely life, but maybe "a woman with low self-esteem" can stand him for a while. "And if she won't love me then her sister will / She's from Say-one-thing-and-mean-another-sville." What a line. And a crack band, too. Don Henley on drums and Dwight Yoakam on backing vocals.
