It's a summer of transportation songs.  That's the theme we kicked off at the beginning of the summer.  We spent several weeks on songs about trains...there are an awful lot of them.  Then we moved on to planes, and we're still working on that sub theme.

I'm pretty sure that today's song isn't actually about planes.  In fact, I recently read that Bernie Taupin, the lyricist, doesn't even know what it's about.  But it mentions pilot and pilots fly planes.  That's good enough for me.  And, it's an awesome song!

In the next day or so we'll be moving on to songs about automobiles.  I feel like there are a lot of them...we'll have to see.  If there is a car song you love and want to hear, I'd love to know about it. Thanks for your help!
