Never say die - sound advice from Ozzy and friends
Turning the question around for a moment, hands down the worst advice I ever got from a song came from Steven Stills: "If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with." Just trust me on this one ...

HA HAHa-SORRY not laughing at you but I totally understand

 

Hmm..well, it's always chancy looking for advice from musicians, but I've lived by this:


After that you've got "50 ways to Leave Your Lover" (nuff said)

"Sister Ray" about keeping your carpet clean. ;)

Good Advices:

When you greet a stranger look at his shoes
Keep your money in your shoes, put your troubles behind
When you greet a stranger look at her hands
Keep your money in your hands, put your troubles behind
Who are you going to call for help, what do you have to say
Keep your hat on your head
Home is a long way away
At the end of the day, I'll forget your name
I'd like it here if I could leave and see you from a long way away

When you greet a stranger, look at her shoes
Keep your memories in your shoes, put your troubles behind
Who are you going to call for, what do you have to say
Keep your hat on your head
Home is a long way away
At the end of the day, when there are no friends
When there are no lovers, who are you going to call for help
What do you have to change

A familiar face a foreign place I forget your name
I'd like it here if I could leave and see you from a long way away
Who are you going to call for help, what do you have to say
Keep your hat on your head
Home is a long way away
