The Pretender by Jackson Browne
“One of the most depressing songs I know. What the hell are we all doing? And why? Why go to work? Why bother having sex? Are we making love, or money, or just fooling ourselves into complacency with both? What do we actually VALUE? Can we even tell anymore? This is the sound of an actual, ongoing spiritual crisis. Say a prayer.”

Another favourite artist of mine - part of the 70's west coast sound which included the Eagles, Linda Ronstadt, CSNY amongst others.
