Not Your Personal Concern

Song 678: This week on the playlist you can hear It Ain't None Of Your Business by Missing Persons, written by Terry Bozzio and Warren Cuccurullo, and you can find a YouTube video of it by clicking here. When a group of Missing Persons decided to start letting everyone know in the early fall of 1982 that no one in particular had to pay attention to their activity or behavior, I had had the good fortune of residing for a year in an attractive house in Berkeley, CA, only a few blocks from the pizza joint that had become the HQ for a bunch of singer/songwriter types that I had hooked up with a few years earlier. I don't remember if anyone else from that circle got roped in by this moving ramble, but a certain handful of us male members of the gathering did get our rhythms set off by a female associate with flashing eyes, who I would have called our very own love gangster (a term I learned from David Crosby). Of course, we couldn't possibly have known what it was like to be inside of her, and for a while a few of us just couldn't leave her alone, but eventually, this kind of thing did have to stop.
