Hey Guys

Saw a topic on here ages ago about songs and what special meanings they have to them at this junction in their lives. For us relatively newbies - I thought it would be fun to revisit it!

The 3 songs I am playing a lot at the moment are

www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVUJEih2gY8

this is a classic, me and my worse hal had this as our first dance at our civil partnership and has also helped me deal with life when certain worries or doubts are arising !

Next 2, the lyrics of this song sum up how I feel about the worse half, even when we are having the most amazing arguements and talking about who gets custody of the dog

www.youtube.com/watch?v=WT0DLUwynx8

Finally, prehaps because I recently saw her in concert, yet another one by the same artist, this song is just so cool and although me and best mate have decided this will be our song - and although I know we both have fears that these lyrics could be our future, we are going to fight it and try to make our friendship even closer and when ever we are feeling down play this ACE (his word, not mine) song and know that the other one is out there and just a plane journey !!!! So final song is

Thanks for listening

Not so much today's mood but just because it's pure cheesy and well it reminds me that I was once a teenager........

Sometimes it is just good to chill. The first two remind me of carefree times spent with friends putting the world to rights when I was an idealistic student, the last one sends shivers down my spine whenever I hear it.

I was just thinking that as I scrolled down, plus my broadband provider doesn't always like to give me the speed it said it would and following the links takes a while.

Today~ it is Creedance Clearwater~~~Cos i love it ~and in a *that* kind of mood~

born on the bayou~~~~ Wish I was back on the bayou.
Rollin with some cajun queen.
Wishin I were a fast freight train,
Just a chooglin on down to new orleans~~~~~~~~~~


and~~~

Chorus

Do it, do it, do it, do it. oh, lord.
Oh get back boy.

I can remember the fourth of july,
Runnin through the backwood bare.
And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin,
Chasin down a hoodoo there.
Chasin down a hoodoo there.




~dancing round~~**~*~* smooth and cool oh yeah CCR~ lives!!!!

Oh, but what a haunting song. I'd heard Billie Holliday's version, but didn't realise that was a "disneyfied" re-translation with an "it was all a dream" ending to what should have been a much bleaker song. Originally written by a Hungarian guy in the 30s after the suicide of his girlfriend, I read...

Plenty of other good mood music on any Diamanda Galas album... if you like wonderfully dark tragic stuff that mainstream fluff can not offer.

That is one scary video that you foisted upon us w/o warning us of the contents. One of the scariest musical memories of 1982...pure cheese. I believe that song was in one of those top 10 worst songs of all time lists....up there with Agadoo.
