    It's so amazing how it writes such melancholy songs but at the same time injects humour into them. He is just so brilliant. There's no one like Loudon.

    Loudon just bleeds it out on stage. To bad he couldn't be there more for his family.

    You're either married to the music or to the family. Hard to have both.

    "Come up to my motel room, save my life"...isn't that the best line in the whole of rock music? And this was on is first lp in the early '70's - I loved the song before anyone HAD saved my life that way, while I was still hoping...and I saw him live in Inverness last week, 40+ years on, and this song STILL brought the tears rolling down my cheeks...

    Alex Chilton's voicing and style also made for a great cover of this song.

    Saw him tonight in Derry - cried my eyes out during this song. What's more embarrassing is that in the meet n greet afterwards I also cried my eyes out - a little overwhelmed to be meeting a hero. Had to rejoin the queue to get another picture taken that I wouldn't be too embarrassed to show to anyone!! Roll on National Concert Hall, Dublin tomorrow night - the last night of the current tour <3

    A lonely man on the road, desperate and horny. Who can doubt for one moment Loudon's sincerity?
