    I was listening to a live version of Take me back (deja vu), and at the end Sammy says, "its a true story." Anyone know the "true" story behind it?

    Well, somebody has to answer this question, and I'm somebody. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

    To answer your question, I don't know. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

    I believe that many of the lyrics on the Balance album dealt with Sammy's divorce from his long time wife Betsy. Therefore I would assume that the answer lies somewhere in there.

    According to the VHE, the music for this song was written for the For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge album.

    Sorry, can't offer any more than that.

    I've got a live version of Take Me Back, (probably the same one everyone else has) that you hear Sam say "it's based on a true story".....Maybe it is? I dunno. At the very least, as with MOST lyrics in music, it certainly has some elements of experiences that really happend.

    Has a live version of the song also, but unfortunately cannot provide that missing link. Wish I knew. It would be quite interesting to know.

    Thanks Glenn, you always seem to come through even when you don't.
