Speaking of "Graceland":
Quote:
The Mississippi Delta
Was shining like a National guitar

I've always liked that the image works whether or not "National guitar" is understood as a brand name associated with chrome resonators (
photo), or more geopolitically.
And the multiple meanings of "turn down" at the beginning of Bonnie Raitt's "I Can't Make You Love Me" are simply fabulous:
Quote:
Turn down the lights
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
