The Music Thread

[Charon]

sounds simple enough. thank u phase dance. let me walk to mailbox to see if package #1 was delivered. And, then I shall try.

You guys are so nice. The cream of the crop, as it were.

Just awesome.

[Zander]

This is a great song.. You'll never hear this uncut version on the radio. They cut out a good instrumental, including a great guitar riff..  Some fine singing too by Robin Zander  my uncle. :-P

[Zander]

Well, nobody kicks Uncle Robbie's ass Audrey, but I obviously posted the wrong song... That's Golden Earring.. I hope Uncle Robbie forgives me.. =(

[Charon]

Thank you zander for the private lesson. cough cough.

But, I changed my color settings. Not only is this site just beautiful with the colorings, but I see the words and pics u said I would.

I am sorry, but I was born blonde. Nothing can be done about it. LOL. and, no, I am not kidding.

Now, give me some time for some quick chores. And, I shall conquer this music game now that I can see it.

(No, I never took a psychadelic sp? or such, but these colors r gorgeous. Been living in a black and white high contrast world. And, that just sucked.)

Right now, I am really enjoying Black Sun by Death Cab for Cutie.  Only song I have heard in a good while that I have enjoyed from this band.

Boy, this is gonna say a lot about my age, but here goes. My all time favorite song is At Last by Etta James. I have always loved that song. I love the oldies. other than that I like Reggae music. It just gets me movin'.

NAPOLEON XIV
"They're Coming To Take Me Away"


Remember when you ran away
And I got on my knees
And begged you not to leave
Because I'd go beserk

Well you left me anyhow
And then the days got worse and worse
And now you see I've gone
Completely out of my mind

And they're coming to take me away ha-haaa
They're coming to take me away ho ho hee hee ha haaa
To the funny farm
Where life is beautiful all the time
And I'll be happy to see those nice young men
In their clean white coats
And they're coming to take me away ha haaa

You thought it was a joke
And so you laughed
You laughed when I said
That losing you would make me flip my lid

Right? You know you laughed
I heard you laugh. You laughed
You laughed and laughed and then you left
But now you know I'm utterly mad

And they're coming to take me away ha haaa
They're coming to take me away ho ho hee hee ha haaa
To the happy home with trees and flowers and chirping birds
And basket weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes
And they're coming to take me away ha haaa

I cooked your food
I cleaned your house
And this is how you pay me back
For all my kind unselfish, loving deeds
Ha! Well you just wait
They'll find you yet and when they do
They'll put you in the A.S.P.C.A.
You mangy mutt

And they're coming to take me away ha haaa
They're coming to take me away ha haaa ho ho hee hee
To the funny farm where life is beautiful all the time
And I'll be happy to see those nice young men
In their clean white coats

And they're coming to take me away
To the happy home with trees and flowers and chirping birds
And basket weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes
And they're coming to take me away ha haaa!

Wow ... I remember that song in fact I had the 45 ... On the flip side it played the song in reverse ... That was many years ago

Hey Puffy, glad you enjoyed. You never hear the full 7 minute version on the radio, they cut the instrumental out. I guess it starts about 3 minutes into the song and goes on for about 3 minutes. I can't think of the guitar player's name but he's very good. I love The Man Who Sold The World; Hunky Dory is my favorite Bowie album. It would be impossible for me to name a favorite song period, so many great ones. I could think about it for days and still not have an answer. Cricket, you did lose me with Etta James. =(
