A Song for Everything

[BrendaBear]

I'll take that challenge.

I thought you might like that…

Bonus points if you can get a sweet @~Elizabeth~ sentiment in there too. (You know I love a good romance! )

 

[PicassosPleasure]

What about a song “in the future” which is old enough that it is in the past now.

"The Year 2000" released by the O'Jays in 1980.

Bonus points if you can get a sweet @~Elizabeth~ sentiment in there too. (You know I love a good romance! )

I guess I missed the bonus points, but that would have been a much tougher challenge.

Song about the present

 

[BrendaBear]

Song about the present

…and it’s ever present everywhere….


Van Morrison - Warm Love

Song about the present

 

[PicassosPleasure]

Song about the present

Let's catch all three, past, present, and future.

Waterfall

 

[BrendaBear]

Waterfall

Jimi has this one… the first word he sings…

Jimi Hendrix - May This Be Love

Cat (‘cause there are two tiny ones in my lap and demand my attention)

Illness

 

[BrendaBear]

Illness

. Okay

Turn it up. It is required!


rockin pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu - johnny rivers

Party

 

[PicassosPleasure]

You beat me to "Illness" by 2 minutes. Just for that I'm slowing it down a bit and going oldies.

Party

Party some more

 

[BrendaBear]

Party some more

Okay.. but no reason to be exclusionary.

oingo boingo - dead man's party

More party!

 

[PicassosPleasure]

More party!

If we're going to keep on partying we should invite Grand Funk Railroad. They'll help us party it down.

Even more partying!

 

[ZfrkS62]

Even more partying!

I'm disappointed in all of you for leaving me to post this one

Turn it up!

 

[PicassosPleasure]

Turn it up!

Sounds like a Ted Nugent song to me.

Raise the roof or bring down the house (concept)

 

[BrendaBear]

Raise the roof or bring down the house (concept)

I think this covers that concept nicely…

House is rockin - Stevie Ray Vaughan

Raise the roof or bring down the house (concept)

 

[PicassosPleasure]

Raise the roof or bring down the house (concept)

Let's see if country can raise the roof better than the Blues or rock and roll. No extra charge for the "turn it up" and "party."

More Raise the roof or bring down the house (concept)

 

[BrendaBear]

More Raise the roof or bring down the house (concept)

I keep thinking of this song... so here it is...

Talking Heads - Burning Down the House

"Out there" (whatever that means to you)

 

[DirkCamacho]

More Raise the roof or bring down the house (concept)

The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire! We don't need no water, let the motherfucker burn!
Throw your hands in the air, wave 'em like you just don't care

Keep on partying!

And dang, beat again. The prompt is "Out there" (whatever that means to you)

 

[DirkCamacho]

"Out there" (whatever that means to you)

I took it literally

The next song on this album is "Comfortably Numb" so I will make the prompt Numb
NO! That is not the next song so never mind
But the prompt is still Numb just because I'm an idiot.

I've got a little black book with my poems in
OK just babbling. Damn this coffee is good!

 

[BrendaBear]

Numb

Ben Harper to the rescue...

"Who have I become
To myself I am numb, I am numb, I am numb"

Ben Harper and The Innocent Criminals - Please Bleed

Coffee (even though I never drink the stuff)

 

[DirkCamacho]

Coffee (even though I never drink the stuff)

Otis knows about coffee

Cigarettes

 

[BrendaBear]

Cigarettes

It would have been easy to go to Boston... but I think I'll go with delinquents instead.

Brownsville Station - Smokin' in the Boy's Room

Edit: I just realized... this is the 40 year anniversary from my high school graduation... damn I feel old!!!

High School

 

[DirkCamacho]

High School

You so old, this song came out while you were in High School

Balls or Fire, your choice

 

[BrendaBear]

Balls or Fire, your choice

Pretty easy choice for me...

Especially since I love this song.

James Taylor - Fire and Rain

Friend(s)

 

[DirkCamacho]

Friend(s)

Dirk's ASFE Springsteen Algorithm has determined that it's time for a Bruce song.

Skin

 

[PicassosPleasure]

Skin

While many recorded this song, I believe it goes back to Cole Porter in 1936. It was written for the movie "Born to Dance."

Give me some more skin

 

[DirkCamacho]

It was written for the movie "Born to Dance."

Born to what, now?

Give me some more skin

Gimme some skin, brothers and sisters
