Don't know the answer, but I don't think Burton dislikes country music seeing as several songs (Guess Who/solo) are country. He may have been slamming the Nashville music industry, not the artists. Or there is no significance at all.

I've always felt Flavours was strongly influenced by country music. Hell, "Seems Like..." actually made it onto the country charts!

I've always been a country music hater, but I did a stint at a country music radio station in the mid-70's. My now-husband was the evening jock at the time, and he loved the fact that he could actually play a song ("Seems Like...") on his show that I loved. "Timeless Love" is another great song with country flavor.

I'm with the previous poster -- some lyrics are just picked because they sound good, and (unfortunately for us lyric-hunter/interpretors)are actually meaningless. Or drug-induced. Why else, "Phoebe said to Don the Baker, can you show me how to bake another bun, Don? And I"m still sittin' with my next door neighbor sayin......."

Maybe JOHN was Phoebe's husband/boyfriend/spouse/lifepartner?
