[BooMerengue]

I doubt it LOL but if she has your sorry ass accent? Or Angelines? I am hitting her up!

What is your song tonight? I only hear alternative music at the moment.

My sorry ass accent?? WTF?? You've never heard me!! Hey! My accent is unique! It comes from Old New England, and Chicago, and Mississippi, w/ some Tennessee and Maryland well blended in. Try and match that one babe!!

My song tonight is my mood tonight- I wish, before I die, that someone would sing this to me, and mean it. I just love this...

The Last Worthless Evening (Don Henley)

I know you broke up with him and your heart's still on the shelf.
It's been over two years for me and I'm still not quite myself.
You can't be with someone new and you can't go back to him.
You're beginning to realize that it's sink or swim.

I see you around sometimes and my heart just melts.
You're looking like if you had your wish, you'd be somewhere else.
And it just breaks my heart to see you here this way.
Someday I'll get the nerve to walk up to you and say
this is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend.
Just gimme a chance to show you how to love again.
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend.
Cause I'll be there when your broken heart is on the mend.
Every night it's the same old crowd in smoky rooms.
You catch a faint glimpse of love sometimes but it never blooms.
I've been around this block a time or two and I've made some big mistakes
but girl I promise you, I promise you that this is the worthless evening that you'll have to spend.
Just gimme a chance to show you how to love again.
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
cause it won't be long till your little heart is on the mend.

Time, time ticking, ticking, ticking away?

People inside their houses with the shades pulled down.
God knows, we could use some romance in this sleepy bedroom town.
I know you're still afraid to rush into anything
but there're just so many summers and just so many springs.
And this is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
Just gimme a chance to show you how to love again.
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
cause it won't be long till your little heart is on the mend.
Uh, huh, that you'll have to spend.
Just gimme a chance, gimme a chance to show you how to love again.
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
cause it won't be long till your little heart is on the mend?

How could I? Ok fine, let me match your lyrics, if I can find anything. I used to have 256, it widdled to about 20 LOL Let me see lets see.

Ok the only happy music I have is Madonna's best, and yet depressing album called "Music" satirically enough.! LOL That's no good. lol

The best alternative is Linkin Park, but I am not that open tonight.

Artist: Shania Twain
Album: Come On Over
Title: You've Got A Way


You've got a way with me
Somehow you got me to believe
In everything that I could be
I've gotta say--you really got a way
You've got a way it seems
You gave me faith to find my dreams
You'll never know just what that means
Can't you see... you got a way with me


It's in the way you want me
It's in the way you hold me
The way you show me just what Iove's made of


It's in the way we make love
You've got a way with words
You get me smiling even when it hurts
There's no way to measure what your love is worth
I can't believe the way you get through to me


It's in the way you want me
It's in the way you hold me
The way you show me just what Iove's made of


BRIDGE:
Oh, how I adore you
Like no one before you
I love you just the way you are


It's in the way you want me
It's in the way you hold me
The way you show me just what Iove's made of
It's just the way you are

But wait til you hear her, Charley!! She's so "New Joisy!" (you have to say that through your nose to get the full affect!

*fallin over w/ glee... wish I was a fly on the wall when Ange gets back!!

I sound like I'm from Joisey? Fuggedaboudit.

*giving Ange a wickedly evil smile... Now you sound like Tony Soprano!! lol

(which is not an entirely bad thing!!)

I have it on good authority

that not only does Ange not have a Joisey, New Yawk or Philly accent, she sounds like she's from Nebraska. Perhaps this east coast story is a sham? If so, she's very meticulous.

Actually T, the Joisey comes out under stress. Otherwise, not so much that you'd really notice.

Thanks! Have a good rest and sit back now - enjoy all that work!

Cool Cat (for you and you-know-who.)

Queen

You're taking all the sunshine away
Making out like you're the mainline - I knew that
Cos you're a cool cat
Tapping on the toe with a new hat
Just cruising - driving along like the swing king
Feeling the beat of my heart
Feeling the beat of my heart
You're a cool cat
Coming on strong with all the chit-chat
You're alright
Hanging out and stealing all the limelight
Messing with the beat of my heart
Messing with the beat of my heart
You used to be a mean kid
Making such a deal of life
You were wishing and hoping wand waiting to
really hit the big time
But did it happen, happen, no
You're speeding too fast
Slow down Slow down
You'd better slow down
Slow down
You really know how to set the mood
And you really get inside the groove
Cool cat
Tapping on the toe with a new hat
Just cuising
Driving along like the swing king
Feeling the beat of my heart
Feeling the beat of my heart - yeah yeah
Feeling the beat of my heart

Hiya Tris! I'm sort of updating things on my B'day thread. Haven't made it to N'awlins yet, but I will.

Excuse me?

He talked to us yesterday and, unlike you, he doesn't think I have an accent. He can't get over what a strong accent eagleyez has though.

Ok, I lied about the ee part. Nobody ever thinks he has an accent, damnit.

Btw, ee and I are really enjoying reading your musings about your new life. We think you're wonderful, yknow--and not just for what you're doing now either.

I don't think so either, Bebe, but you know I have to tease! I think you and Toots are pretty cool people, too! You're gonna have me for lunch, ya know! Someday. I promise!

Lauren promises she will dig up voices. Of course? They could already be online, which just makes me look like I don't look at peoples profiles. which I don't unless you are really WEIRD.

I had a thought though. In recollection, I think Shakespeare often used music to refer to the unconscious mind, or timelessness? I know he is not singular. Anyone care to ... discuss music in this context?

Did I kill the thread with Shakespeare?

bunch 'o 's then.

 

[LeBroz]

Hey there, RF; saw your earlier posts with two of my favorites: the seductively soulful Norah Jones (seducing me into jazz) and the fiery all-woman Shania Twain. So here, for you, is one of my favs; big during the year of my liberation:

Artist: Celine Dion
Album: Falling Into You
Title: It's All Coming Back To Me Now

There were nights when the wind was so cold
That my body froze in bed
If I just listened to it
Right outside the window

There were days when the sun was so cruel
That all the tears turned to dust
And I just knew my eyes were
Drying up forever

I finished crying in the instant that you left
And I can’t remember where or when or how
And I banished every memory you and I had ever made

But when you touch me like this
And you hold me like that
I just have to admit
That it’s all coming back to me
When I touch you like this
And I hold you like that
It’s so hard to believe but
It’s all coming back to me
(it’s all coming back, it’s all coming back to me now)

There were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were things I’d never do again
But then they’d always seemed right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than any laws allow
Baby baby

If I kiss you like this
And if you whisper like that
It was lost long ago
But it’s all coming back to me
If you want me like this
And if you need me like that
It was dead long ago
But it’s all coming back to me
It’s so hard to resist
And it’s all coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it’s all coming back to me now
But it’s all coming back

There were those empty threats and hollow lies
And whenever you tried to hurt me
I just hurt you even worse
And so much deeper

There were hours that just went on for days
When alone at last we’d count up all the chances
That were lost to us forever

But you were history with the slamming of the door
And I made myself so strong again somehow
And I never wasted any of my time on you since then

But if I touch you like this
And if you kiss me like that
It was so long ago
But it’s all coming back to me
If you touch me like this
And if I kiss you like that
It was gone with the wind
But it’s all coming back to me
(it’s all coming back, it’s all coming back to me now)

There were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were things we’d never do again
But then they’d always seemed right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than all your laws allow
Baby, baby, baby

When you touch me like this
And when you hold me like that
It was gone with the wind
But it’s all coming back to me
When you see me like this
And when I see you like that
Then we see what we want to see
All coming back to me
The flesh and the fantasies
All coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it’s all coming back to me now

If you forgive me all this
If I forgive you all that
We forgive and forget
And it’s all coming back to me
When you see me like this
And when I see you like that
We see just what we want to see
Al coming back to me
The flesh and the fantasies
All coming back to me
I can barely recall but it’s all coming back to me now

(it’s all coming back to me now)
And when you kiss me like this
(it’s all coming back to me now)
And when I touch you like that
(it’s all coming back to me now)
If you do it like this
(it’s all coming back to me now)
And if we...

Hm, strange thing happened in posting to this thread. If it come out double trouble now, then perhaps it really is dead?

The first post was: Did I kill this thread with Shakespeare?

Yuki Song:


(Unknown Dialect) ???
Throwing sparks at my frozen angel
Gathering the words to coax the fire to start
Throwing sparks at my frozen angel
Words to melt the ice around your pretty heart
Turn the ice to water, the water into flood
The flood becomes a river, a river of pure love
Love comes into delta, nourishing the sea
Sea goes out to ocean
Ocean endlessly
(Unknown Dialect) ???
Throwing sparks at my frozen angel
Gathering the words to coax the fire to start
Turn the ice to water, the water into flood
The flood becomes a river, a river of pure love
Love comes into delta, nourishing the sea
Sea goes out to ocean
Ocean endlessly
(Unknown Dialect) ???
The second before you walk into the room
I had no thoughts of love whatsoever
Love was not on my mind
Nothing but my life,
My life was all settled in,
It was just the way it needed to be
And I fell upon you
Like something out of the blue
It was out of the blue, I didn't know
I didn't see it coming
But it came upon me
And it held a hold on me
Took a hold on me
And I could not help but believe
I have faith in this thing
I have one chance in my life and I must take it
And I've got to give it to you and I will not let it go
I will not let it go
It's the only thing I can believe in.
Oh, I can believe in.

Endangered Species: Deep forest...music detected



(Unknown Dialect) ???
Be it animal or human, crawling on the ground or on the roof
Hunting like the lonely, lonely fighter
Picking up the truth behind the messages
So fearful of the meanings
Turning to the gods of technology
Wisdom far beyond the galaxies
But not enough to cure the last disease
Endangered Species
(Unknown Dialect) ???
Telecommunication, counting every crater on the moon
Roaming like the only, only rider
High upon the back of flaming Dragon rockets
Carrying the messages of the gods of technology
Wisdom far beyond the galaxies
But not enough to save the almighty
Endangered Species
(Unknown Dialect) ???
Endangered Species
(Unknown Dialect) ???
The butterfly, the tiger
Nothing but a shadow in the stone
Flamingo future dinosaur underneath the urban sun
Victims of the truth behind the messages of the Stoic saints of profit
Victims of the truth behind the messages of the Stoic saints of profit
Smiling as the wonders of all nature go crumbling in their pockets
Flying to another galaxy
Leaving Mother Earth
Endangered Species
(Unknown Dialect) ???
Endangered Species
(Unknown Dialect) ???
Endangered Species

I'm Set Free- Velvet Underground

I've been set free and I've been bound
To the memories of yesterday's clouds
I've been set free and I've been bound

And now I'm set free
I'm set free
I'm set free to find a new illusion

I've been blinded but
Now I can see
What in the world has happened to me
The prince of stories who walk right by me

And now I'm set free
I'm set free
I'm set free to find a new illusion

I've been set free and I've been bound
Let me tell you people
what I found
I saw my head laughing
rolling on the ground

And now I'm set free
I'm set free
I'm set free to find a new illusion

 

[Tzara]

Venus in Furs
(Lou Reed/Velvet Underground)

Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
Whiplash girlchild in the dark
Comes in bells, your servant, don't forsake him
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

Downy sins of streetlight fancies
Chase the costumes she shall wear
Ermine furs adorn the imperious
Severin, Severin awaits you there

I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
Different colors made of tears

Kiss the boot of shiny, shiny leather
Shiny leather in the dark
Tongue of thongs, the belt that does await you
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

Severin, Severin, speak so slightly
Severin, down on your bended knee
Taste the whip, in love not given lightly
Taste the whip, now plead for me

I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
Different colors made of tears

Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
Whiplash girlchild in the dark
Severin, your servant comes in bells, please don't forsake him
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

DayDreams~

Artist - Ronnie Milsap
Album - Greatest Hits [RCA Victor]
Lyrics - Daydreams About Night Things

I'm having day dreams bout night things
In the middle of the after-noon
And while my hands make a living my mind's home loving you
I'm having day dreams about night things
In the middle of the after-noon
And every night you make my daydreams come true

Well all day long while I'm working in town
Time slows down to a crawl
When I'm not thinking about you I'm checking the clock on the wall
Then it's goodbye factory and hello loving
There's a smile across my face
Cause I'm back in the arms of your sweet love
Where my thoughts have been all day

I'm having day dreams bout night things
In the middle of the after-noon
And while my hands make a living my mind's home loving you
I'm having day dreams about night things
In the middle of the after-noon
And every night you make my daydreams come true

Yea, Every night you make my day dreams come true.

It's Alright, Ma
(I'm Only Bleeding)
Bob Dylan

Darkness at the break of noon
Shadows even the silver spoon
The handmade blade, the child's balloon
Eclipses both the sun and moon
To understand you know too soon
There is no sense in trying.

Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn
Suicide remarks are torn
From the fool's gold mouthpiece
The hollow horn plays wasted words
Proves to warn
That he who is not busy being born
Is busy dying.

Temptation's page flies out the door
You follow, find yourself at war
Watch waterfalls of pity roar
You feel to moan but unlike before
You discover
That you'd just be
One more person crying.

So don't fear if you hear
A foreign sound to your ear
It's alright, Ma, I'm only sighing.

As some warn victory, some downfall
Private reasons great or small
Can be seen in the eyes of those that call
To make all that should be killed to crawl
While others say don't hate nothing at all
Except hatred.

Disillusioned words like bullets bark
As human gods aim for their mark
Made everything from toy guns that spark
To flesh-colored Christs that glow in the dark
It's easy to see without looking too far
That not much
Is really sacred.

While preachers preach of evil fates
Teachers teach that knowledge waits
Can lead to hundred-dollar plates
Goodness hides behind its gates
But even the president of the United States
Sometimes must have
To stand naked.

An' though the rules of the road have been lodged
It's only people's games that you got to dodge
And it's alright, Ma, I can make it.

Advertising signs that con you
Into thinking you're the one
That can do what's never been done
That can win what's never been won
Meantime life outside goes on
All around you.

You lose yourself, you reappear
You suddenly find you got nothing to fear
Alone you stand with nobody near
When a trembling distant voice, unclear
Startles your sleeping ears to hear
That somebody thinks
They really found you.

A question in your nerves is lit
Yet you know there is no answer fit to satisfy
Insure you not to quit
To keep it in your mind and not forget
That it is not he or she or them or it
That you belong to.

Although the masters make the rules
For the wise men and the fools
I got nothing, Ma, to live up to.

For them that must obey authority
That they do not respect in any degree
Who despise their jobs, their destinies
Speak jealously of them that are free
Cultivate their flowers to be
Nothing more than something
They invest in.

While some on principles baptized
To strict party platform ties
Social clubs in drag disguise
Outsiders they can freely criticize
Tell nothing except who to idolize
And then say God bless him.

While one who sings with his tongue on fire
Gargles in the rat race choir
Bent out of shape from society's pliers
Cares not to come up any higher
But rather get you down in the hole
That he's in.

But I mean no harm nor put fault
On anyone that lives in a vault
But it's alright, Ma, if I can't please him.

Old lady judges watch people in pairs
Limited in sex, they dare
To push fake morals, insult and stare
While money doesn't talk, it swears
Obscenity, who really cares
Propaganda, all is phony.

While them that defend what they cannot see
With a killer's pride, security
It blows the minds most bitterly
For them that think death's honesty
Won't fall upon them naturally
Life sometimes
Must get lonely.

My eyes collide head-on with stuffed graveyards
False gods, I scuff
At pettiness which plays so rough
Walk upside-down inside handcuffs
Kick my legs to crash it off
Say okay, I have had enough
What else can you show me?

And if my thought-dreams could be seen
They'd probably put my head in a guillotine
But it's alright, Ma, it's life, and life only.
