"Spilt was once the standard past tense and past participle form of the verb spill, but in modern English the word has mostly given way to spilled in all its uses. The old form does survive, though, especially outside North America, where spilt appears about a third as often as spilled. Where spilt survives, there is no consistent rule governing when to use it and when to use spilled. They are interchangeable. " So STFU!

This is the music that filled my room when I was a kid. We didn't have a stereo or boom box so, Sunday afternoons, we would all bring our clock radios (which we felt lucky to have) into an attic/lounge we made in the area outside my room. We would put them up in the four corners of the room, tune them to Casey Kasum top 40, and crank them all the way up when a good song came on. This song, we could never get loud enough, so we would join in and sing with it and beat out rhythm on whatever was handy. At the end you would hers my dad yell, "Jesus Christ! I can hear you idiots all the way in the basement!" (You had to earn self esteem in the 70's) "How'd we sound?" "Not bad. . . . Sound even better at someone else's house." Lol. I miss my pops.

I graduated in 1978. I think the music from the 60's is great too. Even the 1950's had some good music. I think todays music is lacking because it is so fake. I mean could any musician sing and play an instrument without plugging into something. Without someone altering how they really sound? Alot of recordings, the groups are not even together anymore. They all sing at different times in different places, then someone else just pieces the voices and instruments together, mix them up and adjust to sound like they want it to sound. Correcting the mistakes. Some of the off sounds, is what makes a song great. The main talent and artist are those behind the mixers, creating the sound that they want.

Jamel, this song has been on the soundtracks of lots of movies. It is the recording that put the Doobies on the national map, even though lots of us who were in tune with music knew how good they were then and still are. It only took a few seconds of listening to get you moving and in the groove, which is exactly what it did for millions at that time. The blend of genres such as dixieland jazz, southern blues, bluegrass and barbershop quartet 4 part harmonies make it a such a rich, toe tapping, finger snapping, feet shuffling tune that one never tires of hearing it, as well as being appealing across age generations and cultures. Truly one of the best of '70s.

My friend. I was a kid in the 70's and a teen in the 80's. We grew up in the best time of music. A band was a band. There were no auto tuning, sampling, or just plain out bad writing from a few people that tell singers what to sing. This was back in the day when a band wrote and performed their own music. I just turned 50 and I am well versed in music. I grew up on Classical Music and The Beatles. Believe me when I tell you. With the incredible talent I grew up listening to, it pains me to say that music stinks today. This is what talent was. If you would like to see that same style of talent as these guys, I recommend Zac Brown Band. Especially the song Colder Weather. It will bring tears to your eyes.

Best. Song. Ever. I'm in my late 40s, and waaay back in the late 90s, this song came on the radio when my boyfriend (now husband) and I were camping. I couldn't remember hearing it before, but it was absolutely floored when I knew the words. So later on while talking to my mom, I asked her about this crazy song that I'd never heard before, but mysteriously knew the lyrics. Turns out, I absolutely loved it when I was very young - like, toddler young, and we'd sing the crap out of it whenever it came on the radio way back when. So, twenty-some odd years later, it was one of my first iTunes downloads. Still love it the second time around.

In HS, I was briefly a member of the "pom-pom" squad (I was not cheerleader material) - but we had a "routine" to Long Train.... what a great song! Whole 'nother story, but I just had to say - we also had a routine to KC & the Sunshine band: Get Down Tonight - until some ridiculous parents convinced the school that it was "inappropriate" (apparently, someone figured out that "Get Down" - meant "SEX")- so we were told one day before we were supposed to perform -- but our very cool coaches said" "Don't worry - just do the same routine to KC -That's the Way I like it.." -which is pretty hilarious, considering that the song we our dance to was MUCH more sexually provocative :- whatcha gonna do ? - it was the late 70s....

The Doobie's are a band where you are listening to one of their songs and think, "this is their best song!"....and then another starts playing and you think, "man! This is their best song!" Seen them 3 times, twice in the 80's and once in 2016. THAT show was the best concert I ever saw, and they were in their seventies! But STILL jamming, better than ever.

Double drop D tuning. A lot of modern rock drops the E to a D note because it makes power chords, good for rock, one finger chords. For this song they dropped the high and low Es to Ds making for big, lush, powerful beautiful D chords. This song is a ton of fun to play, should do a guitar and a ukulele tutorial on it.
