| for what it's worth, in the version on "how the west was won" he says "pocket full of gold/acupulco gold/acupulco gold" I think (in keeping with the tolkien conspiracy theorists here) it's aragorn for sure...and arwen would, as has been stated, be a natural extension... | |

| Hey zps2, before you start teaching "lessons" to other fans, learn how to spell Jimmy's last name. Its PAGE. Truly an amazing song, my favorite next to Fool in the Rain. | |
