Quote whenever I play a Mellencamp song, I almost never think about Mellencamp. I almost always think about me... and I must add... those around me. Many songs speak to me and reflect my day to day life and also those people that have been and continue to be in it. Rest assured there are plenty of "small town" folk with kind caring mentalities in the big city too. |
