timeless

I just had to re-visit this for some reason today...I knew John Cipollina and he was not only a genius guitar player but a gentleman and very intelligent person. I am glad to have called him a personal friend...He succumbed to complications from an asthma attack i n '89 but will always be with us in the beautiful and talented music he bestowed so graciously upon us....and, yes, What You Gonna Do About Me still hits me the same way as it did when I first heard; like a great poem!

[mamadance11]

I love this song, Things have not changed since this song came out over 40 yrs ago. NOTHING has changed.... NOTHING at all......If any thing at all, it has gotten worse......I love our mother earth......

On March 6th, 1971 "What About Me" entered Billboard's Hot Top 100; it stayed two weeks on the chart and for both those weeks is was No. 100!!!

[grinsonyou]

Cuz your rules & regulations don't do a thing for me, didn't in 68 and sure don't now

[lucripet]

If i can figure out how to do it I will upload the original version. The one when we old dudes were breathing herbal air. When it was real.

[drmikeyg]

This is the song that got me to to OCCUPY EVERYTHING!!!!!!!! Back in this day Vietnam was raging. People were fed up W the B.S. Things have not changed much. What you gonna do about me is an anthem for the times.I'm a Virgo too.

[terragenguy]

Wow. 2011 going on 2012 and this song makes more sense than ever, Revolution is surely coming people.

@terragenguy break da chain

@terragenguy So is your sister

[yandan88]

yes this song is so true today as it was in 1970

[somefreshgarbage]

This song fits as much in 2012 as it did then.... If you stand up for what you do believe...they will put your ideas down...this could be the end our democracy...unless we take a stand.... Awake...and put the money changers in their place...

What you going to do about me...?

[artjoe1]

Takes me back to the 70s. I worry about my grandson and what's going to happen to his generation. Us boomer must give up our goods and teach the kids what it means to stand up. This is the same shit we had during the Viet Nam warcan we let this shit happen again. A revolt is the only answer!

@artjoe1 The 70's......you mean your age ?

[nagashamayim]

Dino's powerful words and an incredible band,.

[gozafago]

[SmootchTW]

[angiebc3724]

@SmootchTW

This song fits in today as it did in 1970. The Quicksilver Messenger Service were my favorites of all the city bands (San Francisco) since I 1st saw them in 1966 at the Fillmore.

[Circuit7Active]

@TheQuicksilverdog I can't even put into words what this song meant to me as a teenager.

[TheQuicksilverdog]

@Circuit7Active The song tells it like it is.

[TheQuicksilverdog]

Quicksilver Messenger Service was my favorite band of the San Francisco sound of the 60's. I went to their gigs every time they played ro 66' til 71'.

[SirTenTea]

Oh yeah. I remember the chorus of this song only when I was 7. It was running in my head for years and just came to mind this morning. It's great to learn how complex and well written the lyrics were.

[whtmtnbills]

[wamalambo]
