Van Morrison was just on Austin City Limits this weekend with a 10 - piece band. Ha sang country, blues & jazz and played a fine saxophone solo himself on St. James Infirmary... for his finale, when they did Brown-Eyed Girl and Gloria (he sang that when he was with a group called Them in the 60's), the whole audience was up and dancin'. | ||

hey Sits - you ever hear "Banks of the Ohio" by Doc Watson and Bill Monroe? It's kind of chilling, actually... "...I have squandered my resistance for a pocketful of mumbles, such are promises. All lies and jest - still, a man hears what he wants to hear, and disregards the rest." | ||

On the banks of the ohio...yeah i've heard it doc watson and bill monroe....sometimes you got to hold them down... Buddie...like most kids I didn't care for much mountain music while growing up...I heard it so much...now I wish I had had a recorder in those days that I could hear my daddy sing orange blossom special again....or great speckeled bird...I just didn't understand that it wasn't just the sounds it was a way of life reflected in the sounds...a culture if you will... I listen to all types of music...but there is a soft spot for bluegrass in me and I can't play any instrument...but like the song says 'I can't sang it but I can't help listenin' 'close cover before striking' | ||

Do any of you remember a group from the Sixties called the Sons of Champlin? They were from the Bay Area, Marin County. Some of the lyrics from their early albums really ring true now. | ||

I'm glad they are still with us...I don't know why...maybe just a real contact to the past. It has been a lot of miles since those days maybe I'll look up some of their old music and play it again on my pirate. 'close cover before striking' | ||

Santa baby Buh-bum.. buh-bum... Santa baby, just slip a sable under the tree, for me Been an awful good girl Santa baby so hurry down the chimney tonight Santa baby, a '54 convertible too, light blue, I'll wait up for you dear Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight Think of all the fun I've missed, Think of all the fellows that I haven't kissed Next year I could be just as good If you check off my christmas list Santa baby, I want a yacht and really thats not a lot Been an angel all year Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight Santa honey, one little thing I really need, the deed To a platinum mine, Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex and cheques, Sign your x on the line Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight Come and trim my chirstmas tree, With some decorations bought at Tiffany's I really do believe in you, Let's see if you believe in me Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring, I don't mean on the phone, Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight Hurry down the chimney tonight Hurry, tonight. | ||

As a result of buying my first copy of "O magazine" in the airport the other day, I discovered a new music site that is SO COOL! So I wanted to share it with all of you music lovers! Go to www.pandora.com, and follow the instructions! It's free, but to get LOTS of songs, you have to register. It's worth it! I hope you enjoy it! And, my song contribution for today is: Look at those dancers gliding around Seems as is their feet Don't hardly touch the ground Look at them smiling Like they knew one another And they never would come down Turn around and hold me I'd like to see your face alone I'm hoping there's someone home I'd like to meet you Who do you see? Introduce yourself to whichever of me is nearby Close behind your eyes you're laughing at me And I'm stuck with no instructions that I can see to steer by Stick around, it's tricky ground I'd like to see your face alone I'm hoping there's someone home Two or three people fading in and out Like a radio station I'm thinking about But I can't hear Who gets breakfast? Who gets the lunch? Who gets to be the boss of this bunch? Who will steer? Turning Turning To see your face alone I'm hoping there's someone home Dream Do you dream? Dreaming Do you? Dream Do you dream? Dreaming Do you? In my dreams I can see, I can I can see a love That could be ... by David Crosby/CSN "In the end, only kindness matters." | ||

Seasons In The Sun ( Terry Jacks ) Goodbye to you my trusted friend We've known each other since we were nine or ten Together we climbed hills and trees Learned of love and A B C's Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees. Goodbye my friend it's hard to die When all the birds are singing in the sky Now that the spring is in the air Pretty girls are everywhere Think of me and I'll be there We had joy we had fun We had seasons in the sun But the hills that we climbed were just seasons Out of time...... Goodbye Papa please pray for me I was the black sheep of the family You tried to teach me right from wrong Too much wine and too much song Wonder how I got along. Goodbye Papa its hard to die When all the birds are singing in the sky Now that the spring is in the air Little children everywhere When you see them I'll be there. We had joy we had fun We had seasons in the sun But the wine and the song like the seasons Have all gone. We had joy we had fun We had seasons in the sun But the wine and the song like the seasons Have all gone. Goodbye Michelle my little one You gave me love and helped me find the sun And every time that I was down You would always come around And get my feet back on the ground. Goodbye Michelle it's hard to die When all the birds are singing in the sky Now that the spring is in the air With the flowers everywhere I wish that we could both be there We had joy we had fun We had seasons in the sun But the stars we could reach Were just starfish on the beach We had joy we had fun We had seasons in the sun But the stars we could reach Were just starfish on the beach We had joy we had fun We had seasons in the sun But the wine and the song like the seasons Have all gone All our lives we had fun We had seasons in the sun But the hills that we climbed were just seasons Out of time...... We had joy we had fun We had seasons in the sun They live in megalopolises, carve out empires, and are the world’s swiftest innovators. They’re not the Chinese, the Japanese, or the Americans. They’re bacteria. - Howard Bloom. | ||

Somersault - Zero 7 You're the prince to my ballerina You feed other people's parking meters You encourage the eating of ice cream You would somersault in sand with me You talk to loners, you ask how's your week You give love to all and give love to me You're obsessed with hiding the sticks and stones When I feel the unknown You feel like home, you feel like home You put my feet back on the ground Did you know you brought me around You were sweet and you were sound You saved me You're the warmth in my summer breeze You're the ivory to my ebony keys You would share your last belly bean You would somersault in sand with me You put my feet back on the ground Did you know you brought me around You were sweet and you were sound You saved me You put my feet back on the ground Did you know you brought me around You were sweet and you were sound See I had shrunk yet still you wore me around And 'round and 'round Your mind can never change unless you ask it to.

Carpet Crawlers (short versiion) The crawlers cover the floor in the red ochre corridor. For my second sight of people, they've more lifeblood than before. They're moving in time to a heavy wooden door, Where the needle's eye is winking, closing in on the poor. The carpet crawlers heed their callers: "We've got to get in to get out We've got to get in to get out We've got to get in to get out." There's only one direction in the faces that I see; It's upward to the ceiling, where the chamber's said to be. Like the forest's fight for sunlight, that takes root in every tree, They are pulled up by the magnet, believing they're free. The carpet crawlers heed their callers: "We've got to get in to get out We've got to get in to get out We've got to get in to get out." Mild mannered supermen are held in kryptonite, And the wise and foolish virgins giggle with their bodies glowing bright. Through a door a harvest feast is lit by candlelight; It's the bottom of a staircase that spirals out of sight. The carpet crawlers heed their callers: "We've got to get in to get out We've got to get in to get out We've got to get in to get out." The porcelain mannikin with shattered skin fears attack. The eager pack lift up their pitchers. they carry all they lack. The liquid has congealed, which has seeped out through the crack, And the tickler takes his stickleback. The carpet crawlers heed their callers: "We've got to get in to get out We've got to get in to get out We've got to get in to get out." Genesis "In the end, only kindness matters." | ||

Sole Survivor Blue Öyster Cult There walked a lonely man Silent, mute the only man Not knowing how, not knowing why Was he the sole survivor? Why should he be alive Breathing still while others died And the only question Why was he the sole survivor? Sole survivor Cursed with second sight Haunted savior Cried into the night Sole survivor Cursed with second sight Haunted savior Cried into the night Wind blew across the sand He stood alone and he had no plan And with the last rays of the sun He screamed aloud began to run In his tears he sees his face “I am the end of the human race When I’m gone there’ll be no trace For I’m the sole survivor” Sole survivor Cursed with second sight Haunted savior Cried into the night Sole survivor Cursed with second sight Haunted savior Cried into the night One night when years had passed The sky shook from a fiery blast And there a starship—saved at last! To come rescue this survivor They beckoned him inside But only man he would not ride Instead he found a place to hide For he’s the sole survivor Sole survivor Cursed with second sight Haunted savior Cried into the night Sole survivor Cursed with second sight Haunted savior Cried into the night So ladies, fish and gentlemen Here’s my angled dream See me in the blue sky bag And meet me by the sea | ||

a song that always gets me spine tingling... (probably not for coldplay fans, tee hee) Killing Joke - Pssyche the tune being played 25 years after its initial conception... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oey8x7EzS1o a few bad words, so i wont reproduce all the lyrics, but i have always loved the lines... "youre alone in the pack, you feel like you wanna go home..." and "dodge the bullets, or carry the gun, THE CHOICE IS YOURS!" and also this song... "song and dance" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wru4x1XnlS0 "and ways we've lost come marching back now! i feel my ancestors awake!"

Mary Anne and Wanda were the best of friends All through their high school days. Both members of the 4H Club. Both active in the FFA. After graduation Mary Anne went out lookin' for a bright new world. Wanda looked all around this town and all she found was Earl. Well it wasn't two weeks after she got married that Wanda started gettin' abused. She put on dark glasses and long sleeved blouses, and make-up to cover a bruise. Well she finally got the nerve to file for divorce. She let the law take it from there. But Earl walked right through that restraining order, and put her in intensive care. Right away, Mary Anne flew in from Atlanta, on a red eye midnight flight. She held Wanda's hand as they worked out a plan, and it didn't take long to decide.... That Earl had to die! Goodbye, Earl! Those black-eyed peas? They tasted all right to me, Earl! You're feeling weak? Why don't you lay down and sleep, Earl! Ain't it dark wrapped up in that tarp, Earl? The cops came to bring Earl in. They searched the house high and low Then they tipped their hats and said 'Thank You ladies, if you hear from him, let us know.' Well the weeks went by and Spring turned to Summer, and Summer faded into Fall. And it turns out that Earl was a missing person who nobody missed at all! So the girls bought some land, and a roadside stand, out on Highway 109. They sell Tennessee ham, and strawberry jam, And they don't lose any sleep at night! 'cause Earl had to die! Goodbye, Earl! We need a break! Let's go out to the lake, Earl! We'll pack a lunch, and stuff you in the trunk, Earl! Is that alright? Good! Let's go for a ride, Earl!

liken' it all It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees They're putting up raindeer And singing songs of joy and peace Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on But it don't snow here It stays pretty green I'm going to make a lot of money Then I'm going to quit this crazy scene Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on Oh I wish I had a river so long I would teach my feet to fly Oh I wish I had a river I made my baby cry He tried hard to help me He put me at ease Lord he loved me so naughty Made me weak at my knees I wish I had a river I could skate away on I'm so hard to handle I'm selfish and I'm sad Now I've gone and lost the best baby That I ever had I wish I had a river I could skate away on Oh I wish I had a river so long I would teach my feet to fly Oh I wish I had a river I made my baby say goodbye It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees They're putting up raindeer And singing songs of joy and peace I wish I had a river I could skate away on.

Buddie! "River" is one of my all-time favorite songs!!!! And I love Robert Downey's new album, as well! However  , I thought you might like to know, that "River" was written (and sung) by Joni Mitchell in 1971! She is my favorite female singer! Also, in 1995, Heart (who is one of my favorite groups) did a cover of "River" on their live album "The Road Home", which was acoustic, but with orchestra. Interestingly, on their cover of "River", they left out the 3rd verse!!!! I was disappointed with that, but it is still a killer song, and album. Just a little trivia for ya!

Take Me Away Blue Öyster Cult Strange shapes light up the night Never seen them though I hope I might Don’t ask if they are real The men in black, their lips are sealed Fantasy fills my mind To leave this place before my time Release myself from earthly care My dream may be your nightmare I turn my hopes up to the sky I’d like to know before I die Memories will slowly fade I lift my eyes and say Come on take me away Come on take me away Come here, girl, close to me A thousand stars your eyes can see First one we see tonight I wish I may I wish I might I turn my hopes up to the sky I’d like to know before I die Memories will slowly fade I lift my eyes and say Come on take me away Come on take me away I turn my hopes up to the sky I’d like to know before I die Memories will slowly fade I lift my eyes and say Come on take me away I lift my eyes and say Come on take me away I lift my eyes and say Come on take me away I lift my eyes and say Come on take me away I lift my eyes and say Come on take me away So ladies, fish and gentlemen Here’s my angled dream See me in the blue sky bag And meet me by the sea | ||

The Vigil Blue Öyster Cult by Donald Roeser and Sandy Roeser ©1979 B. O'Cult Songs, Inc. In a purple vision vision Many thousand years ago I saw the silent stranger stranger Walk the earth alone Twenty seven faces faces With their eyes turned to the sky I’ve got a camera camera And an air-tight alibi I know they’re out there We see them coming Faster than the speed of light They greet us in the dead of night Somewhere Someday someone They’ll be light and sound They’ll alight on the ground on which we stand Somewhere Someday someone Will help us to survive They’re gonna show us hell and bring us back alive Well I’m no poet But I can’t be fooled The lies don’t count The whispers do I hear the whispers on the wind They say the earth has fallen due We run in circles Our days are numbered Every night I look away To the heavens and I pray Come to us Come to us Come to us Come to us Our lights are dim Our roads are crumbling down And we don’t know what to do We’re sick and tired and dying to meet you meet you Cause we bit off more than we can chew So ladies, fish and gentlemen Here’s my angled dream See me in the blue sky bag And meet me by the sea | ||

Born to be wild.. Stephenwolf Get your motor runnin' head out on the highway Lookin' for adventure In whatever comes our way Yeah darlin' gonna make it happen Take the world in a love embrace Fire all the guns at once Explode into space I like smoke and lightnin' Heavy metal thunder Wrestlin' with the wind And the feelin' that I'm under Yeah darlin' gonna make it happen Take the world in a love embrace Fire all the guns at once explode into space Like a true nature's child We were born , born to be wild We could climb so high I never want to die Born to be Wild Born to be wild Get your motor runnin' Head out on the highway Looken' for adventure In whatever comes our way Yeah darlin' gonna make it happen Take the world in a love embrace Fire all the guns at once Explode into space Like a true natures child We were born to be wild We could climb so high I never want to die Born to be wild Born to be wild Qua da di |
