Charlie discusses the songs that made him a Southern Rock icon, and settles the Devil vs. Johnny argument once and for all. Kacey Musgraves originally offered "Follow Your Arrow" to her friend Katy Perry. However, Perry thought Musgraves should record the song herself as it seemed, "like something that you would totally say." "Well I'm telling you she knows where it's at" means that she knows enough to turn state evidence in court in exchange for immunity - DA is shaking hands to seal the deal while she is holding his. However from reading the posts about Allan's ultimatum it clears up a lot.

One of my first fav rock songs, this was my favorite on that album and I always turn it up on the radio. So far, I've seen no intelligent comments on the story of this song. The DA was pumping his left hand while the long cool woman held his right. Traditionally, one shakes hands with the right.

I think that "Would You Believe" is my favorite Hollies song, and I was really pleased to hear "King Midas in Reverse" used in The Limey. It was wonderful seeing most of the group on the R&R Hall of Fame induction, but I was disappointed that Tony wasn't there. The Hollies were born too late, and on the wrong side of the Atlantic, to have visited a speakeasy.

These are the words I attributed to the song. I know THEY ARE WRONG, but I rather like some of them, especially the "beautiful song" variants. The song was written initially in the country/rockabilly style of Jerry Reed then adapted over recording more to the swamp rock style of Creedence Clearwater Revival, in terms of the vocal, rhythm, and melodic style.

"Long Cool Woman (In A Black Dress)" lyrics

Google for the lyrics, you'll get dozens of sites. I was a senior in high school when this song hit the air waves. At an all Native American boarding school, it was easily mastered.

Hi Jennifur, I was fortunate enough to meet Allan several times in the mid to late nineties, I worked in music rights management at that time and we became friendly. He was still touring with the Hollies at that time but it was clear that his singing voice was past its best. Very pleasant person, and modest in his achievements. This is such a cool song, especially that Rick bass.

They lived in the Beat Generation, but their focus was Beat Music, and the actors in this song don't particularly behave like Beatniks. Steve if you ever see him tell him thanks for all the music and for this song. Heard he no longer sings because of voice problems.

Most are the same as the accepted versions but there are some differences. I suggest, printing my lyrics and reading them along as you listen to the song. Anyway...this isn't meant to cause an argument, I'm just proposing this version after a long time analyzing the words. The Hollies singer, Allan Clarke lives close to my hometown and was once interviewed on our local radio station where LCW was discussed.

The record did not remind me of any artist, and I was not familiar with The Hollies.

Love rock and roll when it tells stories, but would like to know if anyone knows what the story is. Genius is the ultimate source of music knowledge, created by scholars like you who share facts and insight about the songs and artists they love. General CommentActually when I first heard this song, "CCR" instantly flashed into my mind. It's hard NOT to draw the parallel - it sounds very much like a CCR song. This score was first released on Saturday 7th March, 2009 and was last updated on Saturday 4th December, 2021. The arrangement code for the composition is TAB.

This is my least favorite of The Hollies most popular hits. It surprises me The Hollies actually sang it. They have so many other beautiful songs this one really isn't so special to me. Clarke is credited as co-writer along with veteran UK songsmiths Greenaway and Cooke, who once recorded a cover of The Beatles' "Michelle" as David & Jonathan. The Distant Light album was out for a year before this song was released as a single.

They are sung by a native Brit who is trying to sound like an American and he horribly mangled the "accent." I like the song, but I get pissed off every time I hear it. Heavy metal rocker Vince Neil released a heavier version of "Long Cool Woman", along with other covers and original material, on his third studio album, Tattoos & Tequila, on 22 June 2010. G. Sheppard, covered the song on his 1997 album Nothin' on But the Radio.

"Romany", the superb LP with Rickfors, sold well over time and remained in print into the '80s. In concert, rhythm guitarist Terry Sylvester did a fine job singing " Long Cool Woman". Allan Clarke indeed sung on the original recording of LCW.

Before the single was released, lead singer Allan Clarke left the group, replaced by Swedish singer Michael Rickfors . After "Long Cool Woman" became a hit in the US, Clarke rethought his solo career and came back. The group released one album with Rickfors, Romany in 1972, before Clarke took back his position.

Phantom, Rocker & Slick released their version on their 1986 album Cover Girl. Great intro, which doesn't sound like anyone in particular, including CCR. Shame about the rest of the song, which I have never cared for . Being facetious here, not argumentative, "by far the best I ever heard this, it simply roared out of the speakers"... The record did not remind me of any artist, and I was familiar with The Hollies.

The song was also sung by Terry Sylvester on tour after Clarke left the group for awhile, causing some confusion amongst fans as to who, indeed, is the original vocalist. The song utilized a fuzz / bass, giving it its distinctive rhythm. The bass line, in my opinion, should get more credit for driving one of the great back beats in rock and roll annals. And, certainly, the opening guitar lick remains one of the best ever, with the clever double drum beats augmenting the riffs to this very cool song. When I was young, I remember neighbors in their teens playing the radio while shooting baskets.

Because I could never figure them out.What can I say people,A "Hollies" Classic! ---She had it allll,Had it all-She had it all'-Don't you know... Since I first heard this song in 72 it was my good luck song. Over the years whenever I heard it I would get a jolt of energy and expect good things to occur.

This is my least favorite of The Hollies most popular hits. It surprises me The Hollies actually sang it. They have so many other beautiful songs this one really isn't so special to me.
