That is so WAY cool... I love that idea...I could never pick ONE. But *I Will* is WAY up there..It's simplistic perfection. The clucking bongo or whatever that is at the the end just kills me. Today I think it's this......Yes.. sumpthin' gonna' change my/our world. *I believe in the Beatles* (Lennon/McCartney) Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup, They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind, Possessing and caressing me. Jai guru de va om Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world. Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes, That call me on and on across the universe, Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box they Tumble blindly as they make their way Across the universe Jai guru de va om Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world. Sounds of laughter shades of earth are ringing Through my open views inviting and inciting me Limitless undying love which shines around me like a Million suns, it calls me on and on Across the universe Jai guru de va om Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world. Beautiful yes, in an elevator. But I dare you to dance to it! Maybe like this??? -------------------- |

Beautiful yes, in an elevator. But I dare you to dance to it! Maybe like this??? You're comparing beautiful music to muzak, which is kind of blind. Not everything needs to be danced to, you know. Some music just needs to be experienced, and to have the wisdom to experience it. You don't have to like everything, but you should keep an open mind. I mean, I loathe Yes, but I do get it. -------------------- I do my best work when I'm hungover. There are fewer brain cells to confuse the issue.

Beautiful yes, in an elevator. But I dare you to dance to it! Maybe like this??? OHMG I am sooooo sick of reading all these lyrics!!!! Au mon cherie You can do many things in an elevator Especially if we are in tall buildings... Because that gives us much time to talk ..get to know one another intimately.Rip our clothes off and make mad passionate love with strangers we will never see again before we hit the 22nd floor. Zip less bang boom... Not that I ever did that. I only did that with peeps I knew!! I wonder how many elevator songs there are and why is the elevator such a world renowned pick up place??? It's the straight man's sex haven.... Up and down and in and out.......... QUICK!!!! I do know you can surely push someone's buttons in one. You might even break out into a rendition of Love * lift * me UP where I belong!! You can take me higher?? Your dare is accepted... I COULD very well dance to many Beatles songs in an elevator or in a box or with a fox..well I have done that lol I would dance v-e-r-y......................s-l-o-w-l-y!!! *Life is a dance.....Feel the beat and boogie down* Me ........2009 Darlin' not only am I dancing right now I am singing too wooooooooooooooooo ONE TWO THREE FOUR!!!!!

Thanks JustMe. It is on my Christmas List. ![]() Oh, Kristy, I agree that the Beatles had genius. But they are for listening to in the car, not dancing. And the music is not intricate enough to do nothing but listen to it, as classical. So, it just is not my thing as much as.. Lola (The Kinks) I met her in a club down in old Soho Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry-cola See-oh-el-aye cola She walked up to me and she asked me to dance I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Lola El-oh-el-aye Lola la-la-la-la Lola Well I'm not the world's most physical guy But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine Oh my Lola la-la-la-la Lola Well I'm not dumb but I can't understand Why she walked like a woman and talked like a man Oh my Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola Well we drank champagne and danced all night Under electric candlelight She picked me up and sat me on her knee And said dear boy won't you come home with me Well I'm not the world's most passionate guy But when I looked in her eyes well I almost fell for my Lola La-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola I pushed her away I walked to the door I fell to the floor I got down on my knees Then I looked at her and she at me Well that's the way that I want it to stay And I always want it to be that way for my Lola La-la-la-la Lola Girls will be boys and boys will be girls It's a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for Lola La-la-la-la Lola Well I left home just a week before And I'd never ever kissed a woman before But Lola smiled and took me by the hand And said dear boy I'm gonna make you a man Well I'm not the world's most masculine man But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man And so is Lola La-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola You have some good taste But I heard this the other day and thought of you! I hadn't heard it in a very long time. It kills me it's so beautiful......... So very !! YouTube - i am sorry - john denver I am very serious when say how happy I am to see everyone talking about music. It is truly the universal language of everything. Expressions of love hate anguish.....rage against the machine ..Spiraling love and desperate heart break....Melodious harmonious riffs of joy sorrow and everything in between..Even without lyrics the instrumentals bring life to art and art to life and let your imagination fill in the spaces between. Bring you sweepingly to your knees The soundtrack of our life. You could just about die listening to Beethoven and Mozart and the like I could die listening to the Supremes or The Doors or Van Morrison or Elton or Death Cab For Cutie or Jimi or Jeff Buckley... Janice....My new guy saw her live..... I was like : I want to eat your DNA!!! I'd like to teach the world to sing???? (hey forget the world howsa' ' bout me first) The diversity here is inspiring. We all have our favorites but as they say................ it's all good. Except for David Hasselhoff and Nickelback!! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek Oh I thought I was working for *Rolling Stone * for a minute lol But it brings us together....... no?? They should play some classical music into the caves in Afghanistan and Bin Laden would come out a peaceful loving man.... OR some Nickelback and he would want to kill himself!!!

I think this is one of my ALL time top love songs.
Well it is for right now lol No I would put that on my top 10 list. TT that's for you and Robert and AI and hubby awwww Not many couples make it for so long without killing each other You don't know it but you and Robert gave me hope. Fleetwood Mac of course...but Eva does it some fine justice. Like mourning doves it is...Here it would be yearning doves maybe???? She truly does sing like a heavenly angel... MoHub and Bear..She was from D.C. Do you know of her??? YouTube - Eva Cassidy-Songbird This post has been edited by Kristlkrost: November 11, 2009 - 10:36 AM -------------------- |

However, there are plently of places to hear the original lyrics. Just a little rock 'n' roll KIA moment from Mom. -------------------- Mother Hubbard

The poster corrects—often rudely—another's spelling or grammar while making egregious mistakes of his or her own 3.

She died very young and how sad...She sings like an angel for real. I hope you can listen TT.

I bought the single when it first came out, and the the album, Lola vrs. Powerman and the Money-Go-Round, and the "cherry cola" was clearly an "insert" on the album. I always wondered why he did that, and now I know. This post has been edited by SimpleBear: November 11, 2009 - 02:20 PM -------------------- I do my best work when I'm hungover.

I haven't listened to much of his music really and always thought he was very different than I now come to know him. I had never even seen a picture of him till the other day. That type of music was never really my thing.....I do enjoy rockabilly as I mostly enjoy all music but not that on a steady basis. I'll let AI talk about him as she has some good stories there. Her hubby played with him. This is who I'm listening to today....Another tragic artist who died too young..

If this is still the "official" OT thread then I just came here to sound off coz I'm really pissed. I spent a year of my life researching something that became near and dear to my heart... wrote an article about it, spent time recording podcasts and engaging in live segments with Deadpool about it on the radio, and everything I'm saying is just being dismissed like it's nothing. It doesn't even have to do with the food... LOL. That was SimonBao's area of expertise and as far as I can remember no one ever questioned him. It just makes me very sad and angry. I really don't want to have to pull out that article and post it here. Everybody thinks ancient cultures (all of them) were about human sacrifice just because a well-known magazine says so, or even worse, just because of hearsay in general.
Yes, I'm passionate about this, just as passionate as I was last week in the chat when that douchebag told me I "back losers" because I'm a Robin fan. Next it'll be all about the old satanic cult scares and how so many record artists had backwards masking on their albums which caused kids to commit suicide. Where will the "village paranoia" attitude go next? I wish Deadpool were here right this minute because he could set everything straight. Then again, maybe he shouldn't come because he wears black tee shirts and listens to death metal. He might be accused of being Mayan and playing basketball with executed people's heads. All right, back to your regularly scheduled song lyrics and I may add some of my own later. -------------------- ![]() Now you're home In heaven's light Shining down On a star-filled night And when you're gone Your soul and your spirit Will live on |
