As a change to what’s in your cd player (which would be antisocial in the pub), request a song to be played on the ol fangled machine in the corner

Nancy Sinatra- these boots are gonna walk all over you
The Dead Kennedys — “Bleed For Me,” from Plastic Surgery Disasters
Massive Attack – Butterfly Caught, from 100th Window
…that way, the pub is likely to be cleared so I can play the rest of the album (and other select tracks ) lucky you’re already wearing the correct boots, fluffy bunny 😆
“Seasons in the Sun”
“Billy Don’t be a Hero”
“The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia”
“Harper Valley PTA”

You, LL, deserve a free drink at the pub for that choice. Hell, I’ll pick up your tab for the night.

Backward Glance
by CurveWith a backwards glance I said goodbye
Saw the regret in your eyes
It’s too late now to change the truth
While were living under the same roof
Its a ruse of yours
To alter perception
Manipulate a violent situation
For your own gain
With my tits in the air
I’m strong and proud
You’ll see me laughing out loud
On a crowded street
In the summer heat
We’ll all be there
So come and share
Its a ruse of yours
To alter perception
Manipulate a violent situation
To your own gain
And your own needs
And your own fear
And your own tears
Seek and destroy
Smile and obey
Its a ruse of yours
To spoil perfection
Manipulate a violent situation
For your own gain
And your own needs
And your own fear
And your own tears
Seek and destroy
Smile and obey.DRINKS ON THE HOUSE!!! 😀 😀 😀 keep up the fun!
btw LL sorry dude but the best/worst is yet to come!!! hehehehe! 😀
You said it MB. I’m going to have to compile a list and then scrub out all the dodgy ones…
For now I’ll just go with ‘Marakesh’ by NMA (soz, New Model Army). Beautiful track that just grabs me by the heart. Yup, I’m a sentimental fool.
There are places I’ll remember all my life
Though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remainAll these places had their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I’ve loved them allBut of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these mem’ries lose their meaning
When I think of love as something newThough I know I’ll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I’ll often stop and think about them
In my life I’ll love you moreThough I know I’ll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I’ll often stop and think about them
In my life I’ll love you more
In my life I’ll love you more.In my life- Beatles (Album- Rubber Soul)
I’m currently listening to disco/ funk and Mozart’s Don Giovanni.
😥 😳Knock On Wood—-> ?
Funkytown——-> Lips, Inc.
I Feel Love———->
&
Hot Stuff ———–> Donna Summer 😉
I should choreograph exotic dancers in a T and A bar; I could be rich; 😯 😉 bring back burlesque…… keeping it interesting while keeping everyone safe; and since across the board …..male strippers
are not as widespread thus not as good of a financial risk; gotta give ’em girls….got to give the buying public what they want. And whose got the cash now and what will they spend it on.Cha-ching!!!! 😛
Rapture by Blondie 😆
You must remember this, a kiss is still a kiss,
A sigh is just a sigh, the fundamental things apply,
As time goes by . . .An’ when two lovers woo, they still say “I love you,”
On that you can rely, no matter what the future brings,
As time goes by . . .Moonlight an’ love songs never out of date,
Hearts full of passion, jealousy an’ hate,
Woman needs man and man must have his mate,
That no one can deny . . .It’s still the same old story, a fight for love an’ glory,
A case of do or die, the world will always welcome lovers,
As time goes by . . .< instrumental verse three >
It’s still the same old story, a fight for love an’ glory,
A case of do or die, the world will always welcome lovers,
As time goes by . . .
Play it again sam…
😮
I really dig Casablanca…. Bogie, …..Peter Lorre; I’ve always liked him. He was great in the Raven with hell who was that ooh Vincent Price and who was it …… Boris Karloff I think.
There’s an actor that is little appreciated outside a genre… Boris Karloff. You know I saw a documentary on him and since then I have the utmost respect for him.
Sorry, I went off-topic 😳

Men At Work ‘Land Down Under’
Village People ‘Macho Man’
Celine Dion ‘That’s the Way It Is’I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet rideA whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we’re only dreamingA whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I’m way up here
It’s crystal clear
That now I’m in a whole new world with you
Now I’m in a whole new world with youUnbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond skyA whole new world
Don’t you dare close your eyes
A hundred thousand things to see
Hold your breath – it gets better
I’m like a shooting star
I’ve come so far
I can’t go back to where I used to beA whole new world
Every turn a surprise
With new horizons to pursue
Every moment red-letter
I’ll chase them anywhere
There’s time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with youA whole new world
That’s where we’ll be
A thrilling chase
A wondrous place
For you and mep
Have to wait til october next yr for it to arrive on DVD though. Typical disney
Really should get off the topic of film music

Ah- the mummy, dracula, and frankenstein. 30 yrs before christopher lee. Karloff’s dracula performance has dated. Bride of Frankenstein still recieves rave reviews. The mummy was better thean lee’s version. And the original frankenstein’s still good.

The bats have left the bell tower
The victims have been bled
Red velvet lines the black box

The virginal brides file past his tomb
Strewn with time’s dead flowers
Bereft in deathly bloom

May be it’s a sign of weakness
When I don’t know what to say

Do we distort the facts?
Now there’s no looking forward
Now there’s no turning back.

We belong to the darkness
We belong to sound of the words

Oh what good things mother makes
You’ve got to take tea won’t you take it with me
What a gay time it will beCups and cakes
Cups and cakesPlease make sure that nothing breaks
The china’s so dear and the treacle so clear
And I’m glad that you are here
Milk and sugar
Bread and Jam
Yes please, sir, and thank you ma’m
Here I amCups and cakes
Cups and cakesI’m so full my tummy aches
How sad it must end
But I’m glad I’ve a friend
Sharing cups and cakes with me
And cakes with me…
To quote Sally from the “Peanuts” comics. “Isn’t he the sweetest thing.”
It does lose something in the Kiss make-up Vancouristic translation though. 😯
The Madd Hatter in Kiss getup; this tea party is something to experience.
😀 Great thread! If it’s a pub, they must have:
Roadhouse Blues-The Doors
Little Queenie- (Stones version)
Authority Song-Jimmy Eat World
-AND-
Mommas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys

Kiss Kai rocks! But as for my feelings on Kiss itself, I think Rock And Roll Hell pretty much sums it up:
Rock And Roll Hell by Kiss
Get me out of this rock and roll hell, take me far away
Get me out of this rock and roll hell
Get me out of this rock and roll hell, I need to get away
Get me out of this rock and roll hell blah, blah, blah etc. etc.
(My little MM tribute pic page)
BTW, great choice of music Mandara K!
There’s magic in these threads again folks! The downside is the bombing in Casablanca; the upside is the fact the TCM(Turner Classic Movies) aired both The Mummy and The Raven with Boris Karloff last night. I was sooo excited…. 😀 It wasn’t “The Raven” I prefer but it was do-able.
Whad’ I tell ya; more freakin’ damn pyramids! Did you ever see a lot of something over and over and until something happens it doesn’t go away; and then an event occurs and then
it goes away. I do wish whatever is happening with pyramids would hurry up so I can concentrate on something else 😥 : 😡”mandara wrote:…the upside is the fact the TCM(Turner Classic Movies) aired both The Mummy and The Raven with Boris Karloff last night.

Do-able, but was it singable?
Alan Parsons Project: The Raven
The clock struck midnight
And through my sleeping
I heard a tapping at my door
I looked but nothing lay in the darkness
And so I turned inside once moreTo my amazement
There stood a raven
Whose shadow hung above my door
Then through the silence
It spoke the one word
That I shall hear for evermoreNevermore
Thus quoth the raven, nevermoreAnd still the raven remains in my room
No matter how much I implore
No words can soothe him
No prayer remove him
And I must hear for evermoreQuoth the raven, nevermore
Thus quoth the raven, nevermore.The Raven is off one of my fave concept albums, Tales of Mystery and Imagination — it helps that I love Poe (but not Po! The Teletubbies are evil, IMHO).
King’s “Love & Pride”
cheesy as all hell, but I like it. 😉
“Get THEE behind me LA LA!” Look it’s Satan’s familiar and he’s… she’s…… hell….. whatever…. carrying a purse.”
Sorry, thinking about Miller’s “The Crucible” but in children’s muppety form or even better… “Monty Python and the Holy Grail.”
My music has switched to some older Paul Oakenfold’s trance and “old Blue Eyes” tunes like NY,NY or Mac the Knife. 🙄 I have no idea why, probly
because of all the older films I’m watching, musicals and such.
Bogie still rules though. Or Because Frankie such a swingin’ cat even though he’s dead.Oh, give me a few days it’ll switch again 😉

Another cheesy song:
CHOAST (Cheese and Toast Make Choast)
Lyrics and music by Brent BoehlerChoast, Choast, beautiful Choast,
I like it a lot and I eat it the most.
Choast, Choast, beautiful Choast,
Cheese and toast makes Choast.
Cheese and toast makes Choast.To make some Choast here’s what you need,
a slice of bread and some wonderful cheese.
A little bit of pepper and some orange salt,
And three hundred and fifty degrees.Chorus
Ask your Mom or Dad to slice the cheese,
And turn on the oven, don’t forget to say please!!
And the salt and pepper and some TLC.
It’s as easy as One…Two…Three.Chorus
Now place it in the oven for ten or fifteen
Minutes until the cheese is melty.
I think it’s ready, can I have some please.
Let’s have some toast and cheese!I’ve been playing these songs a lot the last few days, guess it shows something about my current state of mind…
Imagine by John Lennon
Imagine there’s no heaven,
It’s easy if you try,
No hell below us,
Above us only sky,
Imagine all the people
living for today…Imagine there’s no countries,
It isn’t hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
And no religion too,
Imagine all the people
living life in peace…Imagine no possesions,
I wonder if you can,
No need for greed or hunger,
A brotherhood of man,
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world…You may say I’m a dreamer,
but I’m not the only one,
I hope some day you’ll join us,
And the world will live as one.Dreamer by Ozzy Osbourne
Gazing through the window at the world outside
Wondering will mother earth survive
Hoping that mankind will stop abusing her sometimeAfter all there’s only just the two of us
And here we are still fighting for our lives
Watching all of history repeat itself
Time after timeI’m just a dreamer
I dream my life away
I’m just a dreamer
Who dreams of better daysI watch the sun go down like everyone of us
I’m hoping that the dawn will bring a sign
A better place for those Who will come after us …
This timeI’m just a dreamer
I dream my life away oh yeah
I’m just a dreamer
Who dreams of better daysYour higher power may be God or Jesus Christ
It doesn’t really matter much to me
Without each others help there ain’t no hope for us
I’m living in a dream of fantasy
Oh yeah, yeah, yeahIf only we could all just find serenity
It would be nice if we could live as one
When will all this anger, hate and biggotry …
Be gone?I’m just a dreamer
I dream my life away
Today
I’m just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days
Okay
I’m just a dreamer
Who’s searching for the way
Today
I’m just a dreamer
Dreaming my life away
Oh yeah, yeah, yeahDreamer by Supertramp
Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said dreamer, you’re nothing but a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said ‘Far out, – What a day, a year, a laugh it is!’
You know, – Well you know you had it comin’ to you,
Now there’s not a lot I can doDreamer, you stupid little dreamer;
So now you put your head in your hands, oh no!
I said ‘Far out, – What a day, a year, a laugh it is!’
You know, – Well you know you had it comin’ to you,
Now there’s not a lot I can do.Well work it out someday
If I could see something
You can see anything you want boy
If I could be someone-
You can be anyone, celebrate boy.
If I could do something-
Well you can do something,
If I could do anything-
Well can you do something out of this world?Take a dream on a Sunday
Take a life, take a holiday
Take a lie, take a dreamer
dream, dream, dream, dream, dream along…Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said dreamer, you’re nothing but a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!

Early morning April 4
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last they took your life
they could not take your prideAnd again from U2 from “From the Cradle to the Grave” it’s asong that has significance to me not for human to human love but to my spiritual love of my life; so it’s important for personal to me.
“You say you want
diamonds and a ring a gold
You say you want your story to remain untold
But all the promises we make from the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you…”It’s like a conversation I have with the Buddha since I’m a Buddhist.
Some of the “promises” that I hear back…..
You say You’ll give me
A highway with no one on it
Treasure just to look upon it
All the riches in the nightYou say you’ll give me
eyes in a moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbor in the tempestTAke care
it is called “This Is God” by Phil Vassar. i may be wrong about the exact title and the spelling of the artist name. but i feel this is a very important song especially with the current world situation! i can’t hear this song without tears in my eyes! if someone can find the lyrics for me i would love it. i think he is a new artist in the country western music market. that is not what i normally listen to but i got a chance to see 2 of his songs on a tv program, and i fell in love with his music and message! i would also recommend his song called “An American Child”. it may be called “An American Child” but it speaks to every person who has grown up on the bad side of town and still had the power to rise up and make a difference! i find this guy a perfect example of that! from what i have heard. so i would love to see what everybody thinks about him and i would love to have a link to a site if someone has one. 😀 😀 😀 😀
Not that it matters much to anyone anymore but bluegrass is the choice for me now including the tune “I’ll Fly Away” and “I Am Weary” from the O Brother Where Art Thou soundtrack and “Crazy Fate” and “Take Me For Longing” from the album New Favorite- Allison Kraus and Union Station.
You may all go back whatever you might be doing.
I’m in love with American movies,
I see one almost every day.
Science fiction means everything to me,
The word of god on a cathode ray.
We’re the church of the modern-day cinema,
Mother Mary was born today.
A perfect way to model my behavior,
See her act the video plays.“I would be for you a fire in a rainbow
I would be for you an opening door.
Time and hard lessons are one kind of wisdom
Try to forget them or love me no more.”“I’m not asking your heart to believe me
I’m not asking for promise or plans.
Forever the answers, yes that’s the question.
I am the fool dancing over the edge.”Take Me for Longing >> New Favorite>>> Allison Kraus and Union Station

So sowry no sci-fi here 😕
apart from the usual (Blink 182, Anouk, A, Zebrahead, Jimmy Eat World, Lit and Feeder) Ive been listening to “simple plan” lately. They’re a bit pop, but Im bored as hell with music out now. Ive also been listening to The Ataris. It’s wierd how it caught my eye. I saw them on MTV, and their album is called ‘so long, Astoria’. Astoria is the town the Goonies lived in. I checked the internet and found out this IS why they called the album. They’re all Goonies fans. Of course, I used kazaa to find some more of their stuff. It’s okay, they’re a cover band more than anything though. Lots of 80’s rock repunked. Tis okay.
Well, I’ve got to change it up myself. I’ m 70’s and 80’s bound ….
Okay, let’s hear the groan and looks of revulsion….
The Jackson 5 —-ABC
Ditto————-Stop, the Love You SaveMen Without Hats————–Safety Dance
Alanna Myles———————-Black Velvetand time to blow the dust off the Ballbuster Ballet by T and I really I’m partial to the Arabian Dance in the Nutcracker Suite; always gave me goose bumps even as a child.
