Okay, another "flashback"

Okay, I'm having "flashbacks" to the oldies but still truly excellent and great music groups from when I was growing up and a teenager/early twenties...
This group "Blue Oyster Cult" I loved, I'd listen to this one song of theirs while I played "Dungeon's and Dragon's" lol ~ I'd play that role game for hours with friends, yes, I was one of those "geeks" still am I guess! because even though I haven't played that game in years, I'd still do it.  It was a great escape and I went somewhere else for a little while, lands that didn't exist anywhere but in mine and my friends heads.  A happy time.
Enjoy! or at least I hope you do.
 

Don't Fear The Reaper by Blue Oyster Cult
 
All our times have come
Here but now they're gone
Seasons don't fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain..we can be like they are
Come on baby...don't fear the reaper
Baby take my hand...don't fear the reaper
We'll be able to fly...don't fear the reaper
Baby I'm your man...

Valentine is done
Here but now they're gone
Romeo and Juliet
Are together in eternity...Romeo and Juliet
40,000 men and women everyday...Like Romeo and Juliet
40,000 men and women everyday...Redefine happiness
Another 40,000 coming everyday...We can be like they are
Come on baby...don't fear the reaper
Baby take my hand...don't fear the reaper
We'll be able to fly...don't fear the reaper
Baby I'm your man...

Love of two is one
Here but now they're gone
Came the last night of sadness
And it was clear she couldn't go on
Then the door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew then disappeared
The curtains flew then he appeared...saying don't be afraid
Come on baby...and she had no fear
And she ran to him...then they started to fly
They looked backward and said goodbye...she had become like they are
She had taken his hand...she had become like they are
Come on baby...don't fear the reaper
 
From their "Agents of Fortune" 1976 Album

This used to be one of my favorite songs...but now I can't listen to it without laughing to myself.  Did you ever see the SNL skit with Christopher Walken and Will Ferrell?  Walken is playing the record producer, and the cast of SNL was the band Blue Oyster Cult,  and he kept stopping them from singing/recording wanting more cowbell?  Walkens famous line "I got a fever!,and the only cure, is MORE COWBELL!"  Oh my gosh, funny as hell!!!
