You are not the only one. It takes me a week or two to adjust to the new wake-up time.

The crazy thing is there is evidence that daylight saving time could cause more traffic accidents. Linky - http://wivb.com/2015/03/08/study-daylight-saving-time-may-lead-to-more-car-accidents/[^]

Kristofferson[^]

I have a feeling that that album has the highest number of huge hits of any debut album.

The only problem was that the huge hits were for other people, singing his songs.

I only recognise a couple of the tracks and can't remember who did them. Which were the "huge hits" of which you speak?

- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Me and Bobby McGee - Joplin (and a dozen or so others)

Help me Make it Through the Night - Gladys Knight & the Pips (and several others including Presley)

For the Good Times - Ray Price and about thirty others

Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down - Johnny Cash, Ray Stevens, etc.

But when Kristofferson released the album -- Of. His. Songs. -- I think it sold about three copies.

It might have been four copies, which would cut your price by 33 ~~rpm~~ per cent.

Ain't no double negative there. "Nothing" is indicative, not negative.

Naturellement, but that's not the case with Kristofferson. In most cases, his renditions were superior (particularly superior to the Cash travesty). It's just that people, in many cases, saw his versions as the copies.
