* There’s something quite bittersweet about the song “Tenderness on the Block” which is about parents having to come to terms with their little girl growing up into a young woman who makes her own decisions in life. But the song is at least hopeful in that the young woman will be alright because she has been raised properly and will make smart choices.

* "The French Inhaler." It's the word ''Another'' that gets me, suggesting he's seen other women go through the same kind of bad experiences before.

I caught a glimpse of you\\
And your face looked like something\\
Death brought with him in his suitcase\\
\\
Your pretty face\\
It looked so wasted\\
''Another'' pretty face\\
Devastated"

* "Keep Me in Your Heart", the last song he wrote and recorded just before his death, is this combined with [[HeartwarmingMoment heartwarming]]. And then Jorge Calderon covered it with a string quartet for the Zevon tribute album. Cue the waterworks.

* In terms of lyrics, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PokDj9u09A Hit Somebody]] (co-written by Mitch Albom), the story of a hockey goon, becomes this with a bit of [[AwesomeMoment awesome]]. No wonder KevinSmith wants to turn it into a movie. A somewhat ''serious'' movie.

Stupid typo, I meant to type \"2000\" then I remembered it was actually performed in 1999, and accidentally mixed \'em together...

* His cover of "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" on his album ''The Wind.'' Why is Zevon's version such a tearjerker? Zevon composed it when he knew he was terminally ill with cancer. The album was released two weeks before he died.
* Then there is "My Ride's Here". Zevon also wrote that song as he was dying.
* "Desperadoes Under the Eaves" can be depression inducing.

* His final appearance on ''Late Show With David Letterman'' - in which he was the sole guest for the entire hour - about a year before his death, which was his final public performance. It's hard not to get misty-eyed seeing him play "Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner", the last thing he played on the show. After the end of the show, Zevon gave Letterman - a huge fan of his - the guitar he always played on the show.
