Your foot depresses the button on your upright vacuum cleaner; you switch it on and as you begin to suck all manner of debris from your carpet.....you belt out a single lyric from 20 years ago and hum the rest because you only remember that ONE line......"...Skyyyy rockets in flight....afternoooon delight.."
I laugh at myself sometimes when for no known reason I sing out, "oh woe Black Betty, Blam-a-lam, Black Betty had a child, bam-a-lam, the damne thing gone wild..."
Or occasionally it's, "...like a picture she was layin' there, moonlight dancin off her hair, she woke up and took me by the haaaand, we made love in my Chevy van and that's all right with me...."
And very rarely this one flows from my lips: " ...and the man in the back says "Everyone Attack" and it turned into a ballroom blitz...."
What old partial lyric do you find yourself belting out while you're washing laundry or mowing the grass?

Posted by Sandy Baird (Member # 4773) on :
Alan:
Early one mornin' the sun was shinin', I was layin' in bed Wond'rin' if she'd changed at all If her hair was still red. Her folks they said our lives together Sure was gonna be rough They never did like Mama's homemade dress Papa's bankbook wasn't big enough. And I was standin' on the side of the road Rain fallin' on my shoes Heading out for the East Coast Lord knows I've paid some dues gettin' through, Tangled up in blue.
She was married when we first met Soon to be divorced I helped her out of a jam, I guess, But I used a little too much force. We drove that car as far as we could Abandoned it out West Split up on a dark sad night Both agreeing it was best. She turned around to look at me As I was walkin' away I heard her say over my shoulder, "We'll meet again someday on the avenue," Tangled up in blue.
I had a job in the great north woods Working as a cook for a spell But I never did like it all that much And one day the ax just fell. So I drifted down to New Orleans Where I happened to be employed Workin' for a while on a fishin' boat Right outside of Delacroix. But all the while I was alone The past was close behind, I seen a lot of women But she never escaped my mind, and I just grew Tangled up in blue.
She was workin' in a topless place And I stopped in for a beer, I just kept lookin' at the side of her face In the spotlight so clear. And later on as the crowd thinned out I's just about to do the same, She was standing there in back of my chair Said to me, "Don't I know your name?" I muttered somethin' underneath my breath, She studied the lines on my face. I must admit I felt a little uneasy When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe, Tangled up in blue.
She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe "I thought you'd never say hello," she said "You look like the silent type." Then she opened up a book of poems And handed it to me Written by an Italian poet From the thirteenth century. And every one of them words rang true And glowed like burnin' coal Pourin' off of every page Like it was written in my soul from me to you, Tangled up in blue.
I lived with them on Montague Street In a basement down the stairs, There was music in the cafes at night And revolution in the air. Then he started into dealing with slaves And something inside of him died. She had to sell everything she owned And froze up inside. And when finally the bottom fell out I became withdrawn, The only thing I knew how to do Was to keep on keepin' on like a bird that flew, Tangled up in blue.
So now I'm goin' back again, I got to get to her somehow. All the people we used to know They're an illusion to me now. Some are mathematicians Some are carpenter's wives. Don't know how it all got started, I don't know what they're doin' with their lives. But me, I'm still on the road Headin' for another joint We always did feel the same, We just saw it from a different point of view, Tangled up in blue.
Please bring the Beer to Jillbeans panel bash next August

LOL Todd,
too, TOO many to name, but more importantly, why are we continuously makin' these sentimental trips down memory lane with you??
ANYWAY . . . I think of some song to go along with almost any topic, or whatever I'm doin' or thinkin' . . . .
Music always makes me step back from a situation and find the humor in it . . .
Here's only a coup-l'a of examples . . . .
like today it was:
~~~~When I look back on all the crap I learned in high school~~~~`~~~~`it's a wonder I can even think at all~~`````~~~~~~~``~~~~~~`~~`~ . . . (kodachrome - S&G)
When driving away from and reflecting on a difficult person it's:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~Don'chu want somebody to love~~~DONT YOU NEED somebody to love~~~~you better find somebody to love~~~~~~~~~~ . . . (Grace Slick)
I know this is a new song, but there's a country song called, "She thinks she needs me" and I sing it to Emily all the time (we hold hands ridin' down the road, lol), but I change the words to:
~~~~~~She don't know how much I need her, she don't know I'd fall apart~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~without her kisses, without her hugs, without her refrigerator art~~~~~~ Posted by old paint (Member # 549) on :

Wayne, Cool. That's what music can do . . . .it can make you think, laugh, cry . . . . feel. Act.
That's why I love Jeff's recent post about his poem.
Music tells the stories of our lives and reflects the mood of an individual or the history of a nation.
I can only imagine the emotion behind a song like "The Star Spangled Banner". I can experience it in an event like 9-11. "Amazing grace" never had the impact on me it did until AFTER I met the Lord. Then I understood the depth of the event that inspired the words.
I think music & lyrics help people understand each others hearts better than spoken words, books, photographs or art, tho' these things do touch people in incredibley deep ways too.
It soothes the "savage beast" . . .
More of my favs to whistle, sing and spontaneously aggrevate people with:
"Why can't we be friends" "Don't worry, be happy" "Sultans of swing" "I can see for miles and miles" "Jingle bells" "Big yellow taxi" "Wild angels" "Mama tried" "Miss American pie" "Fire on the mountain" "Stuck in Lodi again" "Take the money and run" "Sweet home Alalbama" "American band" "Sunshine on my shoulders"

YOU...there was never any other You and I were created to be true Isn't it love that keeps us breathing isn't it love we're sent here for Wasn't that love that we were feeling deep in our soul deeper than we know keeping me holding out for YOU There was never any question You'll be forever on my mind You and I were meant to be together True hearts in the world where love is dying And I might as well have been dyin' when we were apart When you came back I felt the beating of my heart It was you...only you...you...always you.

My daughter graduated college this past May. My son just entered his Senior year of High School. I walk around all day signing "The Cat's In The Cradle" same as Wayne Webb. But, even though I swore I wouldn't let my kids be second to my job, it seems it turned out that way anyhow. Oh, my job wasn't in the sign biz as a lot of you know. It was in advertising. I travelled a lot, and the night before my son would always ask me to sing him "Leaving On A Jet Plane" even though it always made him cry. I don't remember when the last time was that I carried my son, or sang a lullabye to my daughter. Those are moments I always cherished with my kids. If only we knew when those "last times" were going to be, how we'd hang on to them for so much longer.
Posted by Todd Gill (Member # 2569) on :
Sheila...to answer your question, I don't know. When I'm not being an aggravating imbecile, I'm kind of a wishy-washy sentimental guy.
For instance: My kids laugh at me because I used to get all choked up and head for the kleenex when watching the old movie Casper-the Friendly Ghost....remember the part near the end when Casper whispers into the little girls ear he likes, "Can I keep you?!" Tears me up every time.
Now is that sappy or what? and then I'm grumpy. I eat way too much sugar!LOL.

The first time it was a father/son thing with our oldest son and the next time we went with a whole group. The tickets are hard to come by but our son had connections somehow. Buddy puts on a great show! "Our song" is "Feels Like Rain"...still give me chills every time I hear it! Posted by Alan Ackerson (Member # 3224) on :
I bet it was fun. We have a little place called Waterloo Village were we got to see Buddy, Johnny Lang and Susan Tedeschi (sp?). What a time!
It's funny you mention him again today. You are personally responsible for my latest Buddy crazy (with this post).

Was driving home from an installation the day before hurricane Ivan hit and listening to the radio for news of the storm. They were playing Neil Young's "Heart of Gold" with the harmonica solo. So, when I got home, got out the guitar, harmonica and holder and tried it. Then I found myself playing the one in Billy Joel's "Piano Man". Don't really care for either song but it was fun to try.

John Deaton: There's a song by Brad Paisley, everytime I hear I think of you it's kinda bluegrassy called "You'll never leave Harlan alive". all about coal mining in Harlan, Ky.
"In the deep dark hills of eastern KY that is where I trace my bloodline I read on hillside gravestone: You'll never leave Harlan alive.
Where the sun comes up about 10 in the morning and the sun goes down about 3 in the day and you fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin' and spend your life just thinkin' of how to get away."
the last line changes to " ...and you spend your life, diggin' coal from the bottom of your grave."

But the time is past for living in a dream world Lying to myself can't make that scene Of wondering if you love me or just making a fool of me Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island Chorus: And watch the sun go down (sit and watch the sun go down) Hear the sea roll in (listen to the sea roll in) But I'll be thinking of you (yes, and I'll be thinking of you) And how it might have been (thinking how it might have been) Hear the night birds cry (listen to the night birds cry) Watch the sunset die (sit and watch the sunset die) Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island
Well all the fun has died, It's raining in my heart I know down in my soul I'm really gonna miss you But it had to end this way with all the games we played Well I hope you understand I just had to go back to the island
