Lyrics:
I know it’s a problem I like falling into your arms
and I know there’s a reason that I always put up my guard
You like drinking and then taking things apart
but can’t you see we’re different people I don’t wanna make this hard
I like my peace
you like to fight
I like to reach
you hold on tight
But I’m afraid to ask you why (to ask you why)
Don’t say (don’t say)
you were there when you weren’t
cause I don’t think (don’t think)
you were there when I was hurting
And now I don’t know if I wanna come home
now I don’t know if I’ll ever go back
You’re so cold (so cold so cold)
Ice on snow (don’t say you’ll be there)
It gets old (gets old gets old)
Rust on gold
I’m too optimistic when I think that this’ll workout
without another emotional night where we both breakdown
I keep talking
you say nothing
I’ll keep trying
for something
But I’m afraid it’s not working
Don’t say (don’t say)
you were there when you weren’t
cause I don’t think (don’t think)
you were there when I was hurting
And now I don’t know if I wanna come home
now I don’t know if I’d ever go back
You’re so cold (so cold so cold)
Ice on snow (don’t say you’ll be there)
It gets old (gets old gets old)
Rust on gold
Oh I should’ve told you what I never did
I feel like I wasted away so many minutes (don’t say you’ll be there)
I need something different than the way this is
Cause I feel like I’m falling in
Don’t say (don’t say)
you were there when you weren’t
Cause I don’t think (don’t think)
you were there when I was hurting
And now I don’t know if I wanna come home
Now I don’t know if I’ll ever go back
You’re so cold (so cold so cold)
Ice on snow (don’t say you’ll be there)
It gets old (gets old gets old)
Rust on gold

Summary:
Just three and a half months before the fateful plane crash that killed Skynyrd members Steve Gaines, his sister, backing vocalist Cassie Gaines (of the Honkettes), and lead vocalist Ronnie Van Zandt, Lynyrd Skynyrd played this 4th of July weekend program in Oakland.
While this is only a partial recording of the show, two of the three songs are probably the ones you would skip to anyway: «Sweet Home Alabama» and the legendary closing track that has inspired legions of concert-going yokels to make millions of ironic requests over the years, «Free Bird.» The first track is an excerpt of a standard Skynyrd live show cover, Jimmie Rodgers «T for Texas» The guys take six minutes to stretch their legs on this version of «Sweet Home Alabama.» The song had been released three years prior as a response song to the Neil Young numbers «Southern Man» and «Alabama,» which were both critical of southern politics. Ironically, by some reports, Van Zant was wearing a Neil Young t-shirt at the time of this performance.
The show is closed with «Free Bird,» which by many fans estimations is only rivaled by Led Zeppelins «Stairway to Heaven» as the most epic closing song in rock history. Allen Collins handles most of the five-minute solo, while Gary Rossington plays the «bird-chirp» guitar parts, which are not on the original recording, as well as the slide work on the opening riffs. Billy Powell also plays a masterful piano solo that is unique to the live show.
While Lynyrd Skynyrd would release the multi-platinum Street Survivors in October of 1977, the bands structure would be fundamentally devastated by the crash of their private Convair 240 that took the lives of three members, as well as the pilots and assistant road manager Dean Kilpatrick, and terribly injured every other member, except for Honkette, JoJo Billingsley, who was at home with her children and had reportedly begged the band to quit using the plane after dreaming of such a crash.
From the ashes of this Skynyrd incarnation, Van Zants younger brother, Johnny, stepped in and made Lynyrd Skynyrd a popular band once more when they reformed in 1987. Lynyrd Skynyrd is planning to release an unearthed recording of pre-plane crash Skynyrd in 2009.

24kGoldn — Coco. An exclusive live performance for Vevo DSCVR ARTISTS TO WATCH 2021, an annual series highlighting those that are shaping the future of music.
It’s safe to say 24kGoldn was born to shine. His first name actually IS Golden, how’s that for starters? What’s more, at the age of 20, the alt-rapper has already gone platinum with “Mood,” his insanely catchy track with pal iann dior. As the story goes, the chart-topper was made offhand during a Call of Duty gaming sesh with Golden, iann, and producer pals Keegan Bach and Omer Fedi. “It was the first guitar riff that Omer played," Golden has said, «and without even thinking I started singing, “Why you always in a mood? Omer was like, ‘that’s fire.‘” It may sound like lightning in a bottle, but the sunny San Francisco native’s success comes as no surprise to Soundcloud users. Three years ago the indie community was showing love to Golden’s early and strong efforts “Valentino” and “Ballin’ Like Shareef,” the latter an eye-wink reference to both Shaquille O’Neill’s son and their Gen Z tribe. Where’d the musicality come from? Goldens mom tells a story of her son frequently using chopsticks as drumsticks on an upside-down yellow bucket. After that he did time in a local choir. In high school, an older friend told him about the availability of a studio. “The more music I made, the better it got, and the more people wanted to hear it.” Now his tracks have A-listers such as Justin Bieber and J Balvin hopping on remixes. The pandemic precluded a full band participating in our Artist To Watch performances, but that didn’t affect the musics energy. Golden and his pink-haired pal brought plenty of fire. Enjoy these live takes of “Mood” and “Coco.”
