So, this is my final post on the 30 day song challenge.
I chose this song because I'm a bit of an introvert. I don't mind being alone, it does not make me feel sad or lonely. I don't like the city much, at least not to live there. It is not just the subject matter, but the feel of this song that I like.
This song, Johnny's Garden, is off of the album Manassas. It is a 1972 double album by Stephen Stills and his band, also named Manassas.

@norcal -- yes, and the fact that, back when this got airplay on the radio, they'd play 15 songs in a row and at the end start naming off the songs ("that was Little Feat with 'Roll 'Um Easy,' and before that we heard Jackson Browne with 'Before the Deluge,' and before that....."). It took me three weeks to find out that Warren Zevon did "Accidentally Like a Martyr," because I'd always hear it and love it on the radio, but lost track of the count by the time they named everyone.
