365/366 From Dark Star, saved up till almost the end:

Dark star crashes, pouring its light into ashes
Reason tatters, the forces tear loose from the axis

366/366 Perhaps inevitable, the last one is from Truckin’:

Sometimes the lights all shining on me, other times I can barely see
Lately it occurs to me What a long strange trip it's been

Thank you so much for this, Alex. It truly has been my favorite topic on the
Well. Happy New Year!

Just sorry I didn't join the the zoom call, but I fell asleep before
it started at 1am UK time.

Hope so since I had to miss it too. Let’s do the next one at a
suitable time for Alex too.

Thank you so much, Alex, for this amazing effort! We could treat it
like the "This Day in Deadhead History" topic and just re-run it on
an annual basis....

Thanks for that. But I'm doubtful about repeats: there isn't the
link between the date and the content as there is is "this day ..."

I was sort-of tempted to keep going with more songs until I ran out
(there are perhaps another 200 on my site). But that would include
some lyrics that don't show Hunter at his best (e.g. Ugliest Girl In
The World) and I thought that it was probably better just to do what
I'd set out to do and complete one full year.

I agree Alex, it is right and it is done.

Agreed. Thank you again for this superlative effort, Alex!
