Subject: Interpretation of a song

Written By: Mike_Florio on 07/07/03 at 01:05 a.m.

not many people even know the song: "That says it all" by Dunkin Sheik, where he mentions numerous musical references, here are the lyrics:

Hit the town, still dressing down
Looking for some action
Mr. Jagger said it best
He knows you never get...no satisfaction
But Mr. Dylan knows
That everyone is more or less a rolling stone
And Mr. Lennon, so quiet, knows better or so I've been told
That says it all, doesn't it?
We always want what we never get
Well listen hear, my friend
I can't continue to pretend that it's alright
'Cause that ain't right...That ain't right
I hear you're gonna make it big, rake it in
With your master plan, Mr. Hendrix understood
Those are only castles made of sand
Mr. Wilson took some pills...and I don't blame him
It's hard to be alive...Mr. Page, how he played
Mr. Drake stayed up late and made me cry
That says it all, doesn't it?
We always want what we never get
Well listen hear, my friend
I can't continue to pretend that it's alright
They've said it all haven't they?
But what I want, what I want to say
Is listen hear my friend
I can't continue to pretend that it's alright
No matter what we get
We never find our happiness
Ain't that a crime? Maybe that's why I've been told
Since I was six years old to compromise
But that ain't right...That ain't right

If you could, can you tell me what and who the three bolded lines in specific are refering to...thanks...

I don't know about Mr. Wilson, but the other two would probably be Jimmy Page (thank G-d he's still alive! :) ) and Nick Drake (R.I.P. :'( )

well thanks all

I did know the Paige line, I just didn't realize that I had bolded it, and I think that its Bryon Wilson, I doubt Jackie took any pills. ::) But I didn't know Drake at first, it took me some time to realize it.
