Carlos recalls, \"We had that track back in 1975. We used to rehearse in the basement of Rick [Nielsen]'s dad's music shop on Seventh Avenue in Rockford, Illinois. As soon as I heard it, I thought it was a really interesting lyric.\"\n\nRick Nielsen said: \"I used to hear my friends saying they thought their parents were strange. The first thing I got was the opening of the chorus: 'Mommy's all right, daddy's all right.' It just rolled off at one sitting. Those opening lines, 'Mother told me, yes, she told me I 'd meet girls like you.' that 's advice to the lovelorn, and obviously inspired by the old Shirelles hit 'Mama said that there'd be days like this.' It 's a good way to start a song, if you can make it go with a chord progression.\"", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
