Bad Company - Shooting Star Lyrics

I saw Bad Company in early 1977 at the Norfolk scope.I was 19.Can't beat the 70s.Budro

I,m feel flying, when I'm listening or playing This song. Great song. 40 years...

What. Ever gotta come wsy fiwn to be smong

! --_-- !

Rest In Peace Chuck aka BLUE Blue your my boy I love u 🤟 smile and wave goodbye don’t u know that u r a SHOOTING STAR

For those who lost someone who were shooting stars; If you listen to the wind you can still hear them play.

So many people gone , when I hear this song,
at least I am alive, to think of them

These classics will never die

Lost one today

Put Bad Co. in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame now !

Isso sim é música

Yeah I like Tom Petty I used to smoke a lot of weed listen to him still do

It's "whoa" not"oh"

my husband loved and sang this song. he is now my shooting star...

Still rocking 2 bad company @ 68 years young with a mean joint man!

Johnny rest in peace your missed your friend from texarkana Texas Bryan

Wish people could understand that they are a shooting star to someone that loves them in this world

So I've moved , at whatever the cost

.......and!??;!

@Redana Cabrera I'm here.

Waiting.

@Michele Pacheco Kk 😘😍

So I've moved

The issue is something more like can't breathe with no air

I totally know

I always wondered about Johnnie.   He tried, he loved, he was happy.

I will listen to this music till my days on this earth have ended. Love

I'm a 🌟

When I hear the song , reminds me of my daughter.. She's beautiful,bad idea got her in wrong road and she needs to snap and how beautiful and she is shooting star..She a wonderful young lady.. Needs to drop the loser..

Classic!<3

This is a great song about Jimmy Hendrix. One bad ass guitarist. Rock and Roll forever.

One my favs by Bad Company.

This song reminds me of my father in law Steven Wayne Starr and my uncle in law Jimmy Starr may they both rest in peace. Also reminds me of the love of my life Eric Wayne Starr but he's back in prison and I'll NEVER be able to see or touch him again. I love and miss each one of you very much..

To my angel hold my hand tonight

To my angel hold my hand tonight

This is my favourite song ever. He sang for The Doors vocalist Jim morrision

Bad Company was the worst concert I ever saw.

Hell yeah I got high my very first time to this song. Back in the day when music was music

This is what all music should sound like! Those were great times😉

This was the best music to get high to.

It seems the Johnny character didn’t realize that he was so much more significant than a star.

My dad got me on this song nd i love it 😎😁

Life, Living in and Growing up, back in the 1960's, 70's, 80's. early 90's was the best of times, no cell phones, no smart phone, no computers, no electric cars, people spoke the truths, people had Integrity, cared about and cared for each other, had Empathy and for most, there word was there bond, people talked face to face- eye to eye, families ate at the same table at the same time, people could be trusted back then. When the, Our Nation and People had One God, The God of the Bible, and only He was Welcome in the USA.

But living and growing up today, many more toys and ways to have-get pleasure, many distractions, troubles, worries, and good has gotten less and evil has increased, people are lovers of self, and all mixed up when it comes to Truths, People today are lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, and many are turning to false gods and to satan.. Only if we could repeat the decades past, once again, people today, have no idea what they have missed, they think they have it all and better, but we who lived back in the 60's through the 80's, and still live today, we who have lived during both times, we know the real truth

and, Nostalgia, has much personal feelings and a strong meaning to many these days.
Nostalgia.......... nos·tal·gia

/näˈstaljə,nəˈstaljə/

Learn to pronounce

noun

a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal association,, and Nostalgia can bring tears to the eyes of any

bad company great!!!!!!

If I find his truck keys, I’ll be a star.

R.I.P. MY DEAR SISTER...

Back in the day music was the real thing!

Nothing brings back memories like music does

What a band ,miss them a lot brilliant talent

I am! I grew up on this, listen to Seagull by bad company!

scotts raking his leaves
lauries seat her old pet peeves
doug brothers wet sneeze

Luke 10:27
He (Jesus) answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”
Luke 6:31
And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise. (do unto others-treat others, as you want others to do unto-and treat you)

Remember this song, was on radio, back in june, when on way back home from Calif, it was playing as i turned off freeway, and turned into whiskey petes, back parking lot, when i told wife that  i felt naked the whole time in calif, because could not carry guns on us,, and we then loaded all guns, right before , 30 miles before las vegas,, was about 3 ish am

You must have a really tiny penis if you think you have to carry a gun all the time. So, by "wife" you really mean "porn magazine," right?

that makes me sad and I'm really sorry for your loss😢😢..

So much nostalgia when I hear this group from my teen yrs.

I take it that one must need to be high as a kite to get into this.

U want 2 b like mike. Michaelwm

Rockettes. Michaelwm

know you dont drink but get up out of bed

shoot my star

dont you know that you need a good woman well i am tell them and say goodbye

man suppose to leave youre mother and and smile and wave goodbye allways youre mother but come andget youre woman for life

i kick myself daily for never seeing these guys in concert...even though i been to so many. ah, the acid back in the 70's was fuckin great. I think i had all their albums

My Best Friend was only twenty-two when he was struck and killed while riding his shovelhead... Gary Rice lived his life full throttle and I am proud to have been his friend , he was and still is, My Brother! I Miss You Bro' You. May be gone but you are not forgotten... I LOVE YOU MAN......

Hey you tube fuck you I'm trying to listen to music I don't need your fucking adds

How are they supposed to make money off of stolen music without ads?

Old rock never will die..

RIP Jimmy Hendrix

Still my absolute FAVORITE song ever!!! 🙌🏼🌠

poof johnny had come and gone... sweet break up

This song is so powerful to me, it always brings tears to my eyes.

Love this song

i'm getting together

RIP Kiecho 😢

Does anyone think Paul Rogers wrote this song about himself? Just wondering.

"Johnny was a schoolboy..." by Paul. Hmm. No. Maybe Johnny B. Goode. Maybe some fictional character that epitomized the timeless tragedy of a talented musician departing this world all too soon i.e the 29 Club.

@Matt Newcomb
Oh, you poor baby! You think Paul would be so ignorant as to put his own name in the song? Hence, the "Johnny" name. And yes, maybe it IS a fictional character.

@Touchofgrey53 "Johnny died one night.....bottle of whiskey, sleeping tablets by his head". Kinda obvious he wasn't trying to predict his own death.
From Songfacts.com:
"This tells the story of young boy who grows up to be a rock star, but succumbs to rock and roll excess and dies of a drug overdose. According to Bad Company lead singer Paul Rodgers, who wrote it, the song is a warning. He wrote it about the casualties of the music business; people like Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin as well as others who didn't make it. >>
An eerie parallel to the character in this song is Paul Kossoff, who was Paul Rodgers' bandmate in the group Free. Kossoff died of a heroin overdose in 1976, a year after this was released. The guitarist was just 25 years old when he died.
In a Songfacts interview with Bad Company drummer Simon Kirke, he said, "It was a sort of homage to the pitfalls of being in the rock world. You can let the success go to your head and you can get strung out and you can die. It's very, very simple. And, unfortunately, it's happening with alarming frequency to this day. Addiction will always be with us. But 'Shooting Star' was based on a composite of musicians.""

My New BF soon 2 b husband...

Hopefully not, since "Johnny died one night, died in his bed, bottle of whiskey, sleeping tablets by his head".
But hey, as long as you get the insurance...?

This song fucking jams every rocker is a shooting star

Dear God I love this song.

Best Lyrics Ever

All hail Lucifer for this song.
If not then Who?!

Dont you know we're all shooting stars we glow with life then we burn out and fade.and mines about done.
