Music Monday - Rod Stewart ft. Ron Wood - Maggie May /


There is something about this song, when it first came out I made fun of it, I thought it lacked elegance and beauty, "find myself a rock and roll band, that needs a helping hand" - I would mock "like the one you are in." But overtime, over decades it has grown on me.  It is a song about love.  And Rod Stewart, what an amazing long lasting talent.

  1. I did learn to like the song a little over time, but started off like you and never really loved it. A friend of ours was obsessed with it and named her dog Maggie May. Where was the photo taken? I love it... and the bench.

    1. The photo was taken just off King Street in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia.

  2. I also didn't much care for it when I first heard, and I haven't changed my mind. It just doesn't work for me.

  3. But what about the theory that "Maggie May" was the name of the drag queen who was Rod Stewart's first male lover?

  5. It took me years to enjoy Rod Stewart's voice, and I still hate this song.
