#NightShiftASongOrPoemBut in the daytime everything changes
Nothing remains the same.
No one smiles anymore
And no one will open his door
Until the night time comes--And then the
City lights, the pretty lights
They can warm the coldest nights
All the people going places
Smiling with the electric faces
What they find the glow erases
And what they lose the glow replaces, and life is love.
In a neon rainbow...

#HalloweenCandyASong🎶 ...All the children going places
Wearing masks upon their faces
What they find are Mars Bars traces
And their bags, the Butterfinger graces,And the night is love.
In a neon RainBlo--

"Alex using his 16 yr old voice which sounded like his 50 yr old voice when it was recorded"

Having to scan receipts to count for #BoxTops is a problem both because it's an invasion of #privacy and because not everyone is rich enough to be able to afford a compatible #phone. The second thing is a bigger issue because that can affect poorer schools, which are disproportionately minority-based (usually meaning Black people) due to financial discrimination by the state and stuff.

YouTube comment:
"Big Star's Radio City album is in my top 10 of all time, right up there with The Beatles, The Who, The Stones, Miles Davis, etc. But it always strikes me funny that Alex seemed to enjoy himself more playing these Box Top shows than his Big Star reunion ones. I do know that he almost loathed playing Big Star songs, yet he appears to still have a fondness for the Box Top stuff."
