"Deacon Blues" is a song written by Walter Becker and Donald Fagen in 1976 and recorded by their group Steely Dan on their 1977 album ''Aja''.〔Myers, Marc (September 11, 2015) "Anatomy of a Song" ''The Wall Street Journal'', pages D-1 and D-6()〕 It peaked at No.19 in the ''Billboard'' charts.〔(Steely Dan USA chart history ), Billboard.com. Retrieved May 28, 2012.〕 ==Background== The song was largely written at Fagen's house in Malibu and was prompted by his observation that "... if a college football team like the University of Alabama could have a grandiose name like the "Crimson Tide" the nerds and losers should be entitled to a grandiose name as well." 〔 The song's protagonist has been described by Fagen as "autobiographical' in that it reflected the dreams of both Fagen and Becker about becoming jazz musicians while they were living in the suburbs. Characterized as a "loser" by Fagen, the song's subject was meant to reflect "... a broken dream of a broken man living a broken life."〔 The name "Deacon" was influenced by Deacon Jones a professional football player who played for the NFL's Los Angeles Rams.〔
