From 1975, here's Bob Dylan and his lachrymose ode to Jakob's mom, "Sara."
As always, a coveted PowerPop No-Prize will be awarded to the first reader who divines its relevance to tomorrow's Weekend Listomania.

Songs about former models, e.g., "Uptown Girl"? Nah. Songs about women with rock progeny, e.g., "Oh Yoko"? I give up.
Songs with women's names in them, a la, "You Can't Have Your Kate and Edith Too" by the Statler Bros?
Songs about significant others? Or is that too transparent?
Anyhoo, hope your having a great time in Paris, and drinking lots of excellent wine!
No, no and no.
BTW -- have I mentioned I'm in Paris?
:-)
Songs about ex-wives
Songs that aren't about Paris?
Songs about breakups?
lachrymose odes?
No, no, no, no, and no.
:-)
OK, here's to lachrymose!
Outstanding vocabulary!
Trey
