Bob Dylan:
A worried man with a worried mind
No one in front of me and nothing behind
There's a woman on my lap and she's drinking champagne

Pearl Jam:
Progress, taste it, invest-it-all,
Champagne breakfast for everyone.

KISS:
She walked in like a lady, with a glass of pink champagne
I wouldn't look if you paid me, 'cause to me she's still the same

Neil Young
Farmer John, I'm in love with your daughter
Yeah the one, with the champagne eyes

OASIS
Someday you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova in the sky
"Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"

    I'm partial with Champagne Supernova having grown with to the song.  I do like champagne eyes as a close second.

    Isn't it weird how the Brits switch their "a" and "er" sounds around?  "In a champagne sup-a-nov-er in the sky."

    Yes!  I've never heard anyone else say that.  I've only thought that in my head.

    Same thing in Boston -- only they sound like bigger assholes than Brits.

    I would have voted for Neil Young only I couldn't because that's not a Neil Young song.  It's a Neil cover of a Don "Sugarcane" Harris song.  It was first recorded by the duo, Don and Dewey.

    And as an aside, years ago at Keystone San Francisco, I saw Harris play with Harvey Mandel.  They were backed by these gorgeous, young, then unknown backup singers called the Pointer Sisters.  Great show!
    “The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
    Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.

    That is one of my favorite Dylan songs - easy choice.
