Thursday earworm. SPEAK ENGLISH, Mick!

[Strong Atheist]

By: The Rolling Stones
Jumping Jack Flash

I was born in a cross-fire hurricane
And I howled at my ma in the driving rain,
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right. I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash,
It's a Gas! Gas! Gas!

I was raised by a toothless, bearded hag,
I was schooled with a strap right across my back,
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right, I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash,
It's a Gas! Gas! Gas!

I was drowned, I was washed up and left for dead.
I fell down to my feet and I saw they bled.
I frowned at the crumbs of a crust of bread.
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I was crowned with a spike right thru my head.
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right, I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash,
It's a Gas! Gas! Gas!

Jumping Jack Flash, its a gas
Jumping Jack Flash, its a gas
Jumping Jack Flash, its a gas
Jumping Jack Flash, its a gas
Jumping Jack Flash

2. This was the movie:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091306/

Whoopi had to get clues from Stones songs, and played one song a buncha times, and finally yelled: "SPEAK ENGLISH, Mick!"

:hi:

6. Old joke: "I love the Stones. I can't believe they're still together...

...doing their thing, after all these years.


























Fred and Barney."

7. Lol! Well, I wish I had the energy Mick still has, and I am 20 some odd

years younger than him...

[Common Sense Party]

10. You got that right. He is amazing, and full of energy.

And they're not bad musicians. Just not really my cup of tea.

Is it true, that you're either a Beatles person, or a Stones person?

I heard that once, and I guess I'm a Beatles guy.

Some, I suppose, like both.

[Strong Atheist]

11. I like both. I also LOVE the Beach Boys. BTW,

your statements about "horrible band" and "not bad musicians" seem somewhat ... at odds ...

[Common Sense Party]

12. I guess I would have been more accurate to say at first

"it's a horrible experience for me to listen to that band."

The musicians are fine--nothing amazing to me, but fine.

I just can't stand Jagger's voice. And I don't care for too many of their songs.

5. never did see that movie...

guessing I didn't miss much...

[Strong Atheist]

8. Nah... nt.

13. I was raised by two gay lesbians?

Quite an oddity, that was a really bad movie with a lot of really funny lines.
