Your theme song(s)?

[Strong Atheist]

I imagine the people who are married/w partners have them. I was given one in college. It had nothing to do with me; I was a freshman and new, like all the other freshman. I had asked for a party dorm (sort of), even though I am an INFP because I wanted a fresh start. Then, my new dorm mates found out I was TYPING my notes from class up (I also wanted a fresh start over my high school 3.2 average - I wanted to make straight A's, and thought that would help.) So I was doubly different, and then there was the incident where we were playing Ultimate Frisbee as a wing and I accidentally ran into a building... in the second week there... and, I was an anarchist at the time, but hypocritically enough wanted to run for the student council (go figure :eyes: :spank:), so someone on my wing quickly gave me the nickname "psycho". I did my best to stamp it out, but it spread like wildfire, and eventually I just accepted it for that period/place of my life. Thus the theme song:

Talking Heads
-----------------
Psycho Killer
-----------------

I can't seem to face up to the facts
I'm tense and nervous and I
Can't relax
I can't sleep 'cause my bed's on fire
Don't touch me I'm a real live wire

Psycho Killer
Qu'est Que C'est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
Psycho Killer
Qu'est Que C'est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away

You start a conversation you can't even finish it.
You're talkin' a lot, but you're not sayin' anything.
When I have nothing to say, my lips are sealed.
Say something once, why say it again?

Psycho Killer,
Qu'est Que C'est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
Psycho Killer
Qu'est Que C'est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away

Ce que j'ai fais, ce soir la
Ce qu'elle a dit, ce soir la
Realisant mon espoir
Je me lance, vers la gloire ... OK
We are vain and we are blind
I hate people when they're not polite

Psycho Killer,
Qu'est Que C'est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away
Psycho Killer,
Qu'est Que C'est
fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better
Run run run run run run run away

oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh....

Edited to add: Gotta go, will check back tomorrow...

1. Estimated Prophet-no great surprise there

"Estimated Prophet"
Words by John Perry Barlow; music by Bob Weir
("Estimated Prophet" composed and written by Bob Weir and John Perry Barlow. Reproduced by arrangement with Ice Nine Publishing Co., Inc. (ASCAP))
(Barlow has posted the lyrics to his songs.)

My time coming, any day, don't worry bout me, no
Been so long I felt this way, ain't in no hurry, no
Rainbows end down that highway where ocean breezes blow
My time coming, voices saying, they tell me where to go

Don't worry bout me, no no, don't worry bout me, no
And I'm in no hurry, no no no, I know where to go.

California, preaching on the burning shore
California, I'll be knocking on the golden door
Like an angel, standing in a shaft of light
Rising up to paradise, I know I'm gonna shine

My time coming, anyday, don't worry bout me, no
It's gonna be just like they say, them voices tell me so
Seems so long I felt this way and time sure passin' slow
Still I know I lead the way, they tell me where I go

Don't worry bout me, no no, don't worry bout me, no
And I'm in no hurry, no no no, I know where to go

California, a prophet on the burning shore
California, I'll be knocking on the golden door
Like an angel, standing in a shaft of light
Rising up to paradise, I know I'm gonna shine

You've all been asleep,
You would not believe me
Them voices telling me,
You will soon receive me
We're standing on the beach,
The sea will part before me
(Fire wheel burning in the air)
And you will follow me,
And we will ride to glory
(Way up the middle of the air)

And I'll call down thunder
And speak the same
And my word fills the sky with flame
And might and glory gonna be my name
And men gonna light my way

My time coming, anyday, don't worry bout me, no
It's gonna be just like they say, them voices tell me so
Seems so long I felt this way and time sure passin slow
My time coming, anyday, don't worry about me, no

Don't worry about me...

[Strong Atheist]

2. Don't know it, sounds .... interesting. How is the Mrs.? nt.

[EstimatedProphet]

5. She's asleep-she needs it

[Strong Atheist]

6. Ah. I was hoping

her pain from her spine / legs problem was better ...

[EstimatedProphet]

18. It is better, but it isn't gone

[Strong Atheist]

30. Glad its better! Sorry it is not gone.

:-(

Say hi! for me. Gotta go.

[XemaSab]

3. Heart Cooks Brain

by Modest Mouse. :bounce:

[Strong Atheist]

4. Don't know it sorry. azmouse might like it, though...

;-)

:rofl:

[azmouse]

14. Nope... never heard of Modest Mouse

With a name like that though they must be good! ;)

[XemaSab]

19. They used to be Indie, then they signed to a major label.

"Lonesome Crowded West" I think is their best album, but the others are pretty good too. :D

[ghostsofgiants]

7. I always wanted a backpack with built-in speakers...

So I could have my own theme music/canned applause when I enter a room.

[no name no slogan]

8. Do it like in "I'm Gonna Git You Sucka"

Each one of the heros had his own band, playing his own theme music.

You could probably find a decent garage band who'd do the gig for beer money, if you look under the right rocks.

[ghostsofgiants]

11. I was just planning to rip off the wrestler Booker T's music, actually.

Best theme music ever.

[Strong Atheist]

9. Calvin once said something close to this, but it involved a

laugh track ...

[ghostsofgiants]

13. Calvin, as in Calvin and Hobbes?

Haha, I've never read it, but that's pretty cool.

[Strong Atheist]

25. Yes. nt.

[Burma Jones]

10. Three songs I think.....

Eyes of the World

Right outside this lazy summer home
you don't have time to call your soul a critic, no
Right outside the lazy gate of winter's summer home
wondering where the nuthatch winters
Wings a mile long just carried the bird away

Wake up to find out
that you are the eyes of the World
but the heart has its beaches
its homeland and thoughts of its own
Wake now, discover that you
are the song that the morning brings
but the heart has its seasons
its evenings and songs of its own

There comes a redeemer
and he slowly too fades away
There follows a wagon behind him
that's loaded with clay
and the seeds that were silent
all burst into bloom and decay
The night comes so quiet
and it's close on the heels of the day

Wake up to find out
that you are the eyes of the world
but the heart has its beaches
its homeland and thoughts of its own
Wake now, discover that you
are the song that the morning brings
but the heart has its seasons
its evenings and songs of its own

Sometimes we live no
particular way but our own
Sometimes we visit your country
and live in your home
Sometimes we ride on your horses
Sometimes we walk alone
Sometimes the songs that we hear
are just songs of our own

Wake up to find out
that you are the eyes of the world
but the heart has its beaches
its homeland and thoughts of its own
Wake now, discover that you
are the song that the morning brings
but the heart has its seasons
its evenings and songs of its own



Desolation Row

They’re selling postcards of the hanging
They’re painting the passports brown
The beauty parlor is filled with sailors
The circus is in town
Here comes the blind commissioner
They’ve got him in a trance
One hand is tied to the tight-rope walker
The other is in his pants
And the riot squad they’re restless
They need somewhere to go
As lady and I look out tonight
From desolation row

Cinderella, she seems so easy
It takes one to know one, she smiles
And puts her hands in her back pockets
Bette davis style
And in comes romeo, he’s moaning
You belong to me I believe
And someone says, you’re in the wrong place, my friend
You better leave
And the only sound that’s left
After the ambulances go
Is cinderella sweeping up
On desolation row

Now the moon is almost hidden
The stars are beginning to hide
The fortunetelling lady
Has even taken all her things inside
All except for cain and abel
And the hunchback of notre dame
Everybody is making love
Or else expecting rain
And the good samaritan, he’s dressing
He’s getting ready for the show
He’s going to the carnival tonight
On desolation row

Now ophelia, she’s ’neath the window
For her I feel so afraid
On her twenty-second birthday
She already is an old maid

To her, death is quite romantic
She wears an iron vest
Her profession’s her religion
Her sin is her lifelessness
And though her eyes are fixed upon
Noah’s great rainbow
She spends her time peeking
Into desolation row

Einstein, disguised as robin hood
With his memories in a trunk
Passed this way an hour ago
With his friend, a jealous monk
He looked so immaculately frightful
As he bummed a cigarette
Then he went off sniffing drainpipes
And reciting the alphabet
Now you would not think to look at him
But he was famous long ago
For playing the electric violin
On desolation row

Dr. filth, he keeps his world
Inside of a leather cup
But all his sexless patients
They’re trying to blow it up
Now his nurse, some local loser
She’s in charge of the cyanide hole
And she also keeps the cards that read
Have mercy on his soul
They all play on penny whistles
You can hear them blow
If you lean your head out far enough
From desolation row

Across the street they’ve nailed the curtains
They’re getting ready for the feast
The phantom of the opera
A perfect image of a priest
They’re spoonfeeding casanova
To get him to feel more assured
Then they’ll kill him with self-confidence
After poisoning him with words

And the phantom’s shouting to skinny girls
Get outa here if you don’t know
Casanova is just being punished for going
To desolation row

Now at midnight all the agents
And the superhuman crew
Come out and round up everyone
That knows more than they do
Then they bring them to the factory
Where the heart-attack machine
Is strapped across their shoulders
And then the kerosene
Is brought down from the castles
By insurance men who go
Check to see that nobody is escaping
To desolation row

Praise be to nero’s neptune
The titanic sails at dawn
And everybody’s shouting
Which side are you on?
And ezra pound and t. s. eliot
Fighting in the captain’s tower
While calypso singers laugh at them
And fishermen hold flowers
Between the windows of the sea
Where lovely mermaids flow
And nobody has to think too much
About desolation row

Yes, I received your letter yesterday
(about the time the door knob broke)
When you asked how I was doing
Was that some kind of joke?
All these people that you mention
Yes, I know them, they’re quite lame
I had to rearrange their faces
And give them all another name
Right now I can’t read too good
Don’t send me no more letters no
Not unless you mail them
From desolation row





An Die Freude

Beethoven/Schiller

Freude, schöner Götterfunken
Tochter aus Elysium,
Wir betreten feuertrunken,
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum!
Deine Zauber binden wieder
Was die Mode streng geteilt;
Alle Menschen werden Brüder,
Wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt.

Wem der große Wurf gelungen,
Eines Freundes Freund zu sein;
Wer ein holdes Weib errungen,
Mische seinen Jubel ein!
Ja, wer auch nur eine Seele
Sein nennt auf dem Erdenrund!
Und wer's nie gekonnt, der stehle
Weinend sich aus diesem Bund!

Freude trinken alle Wesen
An den Brüsten der Natur;
Alle Guten, alle Bösen
Folgen ihrer Rosenspur.
Küsse gab sie uns und Reben,
Einen Freund, geprüft im Tod;
Wollust ward dem Wurm gegeben,
und der Cherub steht vor Gott.

Froh,
wie seine Sonnen fliegen
Durch des Himmels prächt'gen Plan,
Laufet, Brüder, eure Bahn,
Freudig, wie ein Held zum Siegen.

Seid umschlungen, Millionen!
Diesen Kuß der ganzen Welt!
Brüder, über'm Sternenzelt
Muß ein lieber Vater wohnen.
Ihr stürzt nieder, Millionen?
Ahnest du den Schöpfer, Welt?
Such' ihn über'm Sternenzelt!
Über Sternen muß er wohnen.

[azmouse]

12. My Life by Billy Joel

My Life

Got a call from an old friend
We used to be real close
Said he couldn't go on the American way
Closed the shop, sold the house
Bought a ticket to the west coast
Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L A

I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm alright
I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
I don't care what you say anymore this is my life
Go ahead with your own life leave me alone

I never said you had to offer me a second chance
I never said I was a victim of circumstance
I still belong
Don't get me wrong
And you can speak your mind
But not on my time

They will tell you you can't sleep alone in a strange place
Then they'll tell you can't sleep with somebody else
Ah, but sooner or later you sleep in your own space
Either way it's ok
You wake up with yourself

I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm alright
I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
I don't care what you say anymore this is my life
Go ahead with your own life leave me alone

I never said you had to offer me a second chance
I never said I was a victim of circumstance
I still belong
Don't get me wrong
And you can speak your mind
But not on my time

I don't care what you say anymore this is my life
Go ahead with your own life leave me alone

[Dangerously Amused]

20. My best friend crowned me with "My Life" as my theme song in high school.

But I think he was just being polite. It's really "Bitch" by Meredith Brooks.

[Strong Atheist]

26. Good song! nt.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

46. I love that song, and that album.

:thumbsup:

[TimeChaser]

15. Depends on my mood

Sometimes it's Kanashimi o yasashisa ni by little by little
Sometimes it's Ghosts and Angels by Mercury

Other times it's Passion by Utada Hikaru (Not to be confused with Sanctuary, which is eh)

[Starbucks Anarchist]

16. "Here's to the Losers" by Frank Sinatra

Here's to those who love not too wisely, know not wisely, but too well
To the girl who sighs with envy when she hears that wedding bell
To the guy who'd throw a party if he knew someone to call
Here's to the losers, bless them all

Here's to those who drink their dinners when that lady doesn't show
To the girl who'll wait for kisses underneath that mistletoe
To the lonely summer lovers when the leaves begin to fall
Here's to the losers, a-bless them all

Hey, Tom, Dick and Harry, come in out of the rain
Those torches you carry must be drowned in champagne

Here's the last toast of the evening, here's to those who still believe
All the losers will be winners, all the givers shall receive
Here's to trouble-free tomorrows, may your sorrows all be small
Here's to the losers, bless them all

Hey, Tom, Dick and Harry, come in out of that rain
Those torches you carry must be drowned in champagne

Here's the last toast of the evening, here's to those who still believe
All the losers will be winners, all the givers shall receive
Here's to trouble-free tomorrows, may your sorrows all be small
Here's to the losers, here's to the losers, here's to the losers
Bless them all!

[Dangerously Amused]

22. Stop. It.

C'mere. :hug:

33. Warrior Soul had a better version...

Have you ever wanted
To be someone you're not
But you look into the world
And you see what you've got
There's nothing there
But brains and guts
Finally open the door
And then it shuts
Look to the center
And I think you'll find
The people that are gettin'
They are blind
You changed the channel
And there's nothing there
You weren't born pretty
And it isn't fair...
Here's to the losers
The substance abusers
To the rejects
All the imperfects
'Cause I think we're beautiful
'Cause I think we're beautiful
'Cause I think we're beautiful
No matter what anyone says
I think we're beautiful
Them most beautiful
In the world
You try for jobs
But they say you're strange
You're sportin' a style
That they call pain
So you get in trouble
And your brain is gone
You're cryin' out man
But the words are wrong
Here's to the losers
The substance abusers
To the rejects
All the imperfects
'Cause I think we're beautiful
'Cause I think we're beautiful
'Cause I think we're beautiful
No matter what anyone says
I think we're beautiful
Them most beautiful
In the world
I know you're tired
Of being put down
And all the crap that's said in town
But you're the person that matters most
I raise my glass, and make a toast
This one's for the losers
Substance abusers
To the rejects
All the imperfects
To the retarded
And the broken-hearted
To the starving massses
And the lower classes
'Cause I think we're beautiful
'Cause I think we're beautiful
'Cause I think we're beautiful
No matter what anyone else says
I think we're beautifu

[Starbucks Anarchist]

38. Nice lyrics.

What kind of music is it?

[flvegan]

64. It's early 90s

"rock" sort of. Sort of like The Cult, I guess. Closest I can come to. I think they only put out 2 cds.

[Dangerously Amused]

50. Wow. I like it.

Never heard it before, but I will definitely find it now.

Thanks.

17. Should I ever be a soldier

By Joe Hill

1879.10.7-1915.9.19

We're spending billions every year
For guns and ammunition.
"Our Army" and "our Navy" dear,
To keep in good condition;
While millions live in misery
And millions died before us,
Don't sing "My Country 'tis of thee,"
But sing this little chorus.

Should I ever be a soldier,
'Neath the Red Flag I would fight;
Should the gun I ever shoulder,
It's to crush the tyrant's might.
Join the army of the toilers,
Men and women fall in line,
Wage slave of the world! Arouse!
Do your duty for the cause,
For Land and Liberty.

And many a maiden, pure and fair,
Her love and pride must offer
On Mammon's altar in despair,
To fill the master's coffer.
The gold that pays the mighty fleet,
From tender youth he squeezes,
While brawny men must walk the street
And face the wintry breezes.

Should I ever be a soldier,
'Neath the Red Flag I would fight;
Should the gun I ever shoulder,
It's to crush the tyrant's might.
Join the army of the toilers,
Men and women fall in line,
Wage slave of the world! Arouse!
Do your duty for the cause,
For Land and Liberty.

Why do they mount their gatling gun
A thousand miles from ocean,
Where hostile fleet could never run --
Ain't that a funny notion?
If you don't know the reason why,
Just strike for better wages,
And then, my friends -- if you don't die --
You'll sing this song for ages.

Should I ever be a soldier,
'Neath the Red Flag I would fight;
Should the gun I ever shoulder,
It's to crush the tyrant's might.
Join the army of the toilers,
Men and women fall in line,
Wage slave of the world! Arouse!
Do your duty for the cause,
For Land and Liberty.

[Strong Atheist]

27. Ah! A song designed for you! Nice. nt.

[Oeditpus Rex]

23. Baby, do you understand me now?

Sometimes I feel a little mad
But don't you know that no one alive
Can always be an angel
When things go wrong I seem to be bad

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh, lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree
With a joy that's hard to hide
And sometimes it seems that all I have do is worry
Then you're bound to see my other side

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh, lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

If I seem edgy I want you to know
That I never mean to take it out on you
Life has it's problems and I get my share
And that's one thing I never meant to do
Because I love you

Oh, oh baby don't you know I'm human
Have thoughts like any other one
Sometimes I find myself long regretting
Some foolish thing some little simple thing I've done

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh, lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Yes, I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh, lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Yes, I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh, lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

[Strong Atheist]

28. Ah. I am familiar with that... nt.

24. My friend said my theme song is "Suicide Blonde" by INXS.

I love INXS, probably my favorite band ever. So because of that fact, and the fact that I'm blonde.. she decided that my theme song should be Suicide Blonde. :rofl:


Suicide blonde, suicide blonde
Suicide blonde, suicide blonde
Suicide blonde was the colour of her hair
Like a cheap distraction
For a new affair
She knew it would finish
Before it began
Something tells me you lost the plan

You want to make her
Suicide Blonde
Love devastation
Suicide Blonde

You want to make her
Suicide Blonde
Love devastation
Suicide Blonde

She stripped to the beat
But her clothes stay on
White light everywhere
But you can't see a thing
Such a squeeze
A mad, sad moment
Glory to you, glory to you, take me there

Got some revelation put into your hands
Save you from your misery
Like rain across the land
Don't you see
The colour of deception
Turning your world around again

You want to make her
Suicide Blonde
Love devastation
Suicide Blonde

You want to make her
Suicide Blonde
Love devastation
Suicide Blonde

[In_The_Wind]

35. Oh gosh! Tonight, I have a few!!!

To Be Loved By You


Love that's worth fighting for
That's what this is
And how, how could I want more
Than the warmth of your kiss
No matter how many miles and dreams
Come between us now
In each step I take, with each prayer I make
This love will live somehow

Let the mountains rise I will climb them all
When my body's weak, I will not fall
Baby come what may I'll find a way to get through
There's nothing that I won't do
To be loved by you

There will be lonely nights
When you'll whisper my name
Know on those lonely nights, I'll be doing the same
Should every star in the sky go out
Just keep your faith alive
We were mean to be, this is destiny
It cannot be denied

And even when we're worlds apart
Just keep this promise in your heart


~~~~~~~~~


Somebody To Love You



You need a job so you can make some money
You need a nice warm place to stay
A sense of humor cause life is funny
A big stick to keep the wolf away
You need a car with good tires on it
The right place to eat barbecue
A heavy duty set of jumper cables
And no holes in your walkin' shoes
The main thing you're gonna find you need
Is a fertile place to plant the seed boy

You got to find somebody to love you
Someone to be there for you night and day
Someone to share it with and be part of you
Love ain't no good 'til you give it away
You got to give it away

I recommend you get some life insurance
And be prepared to call 911
Pay close attention to your high blood pressure
And stay away from the man with the gun
You need a reason to get up in the mornin'
Make sure you clock has a snooze control
Be sure you got a place to run for cover
'Cause overnight things can sure get cold

You're gonna find out sooner or later
You need a common denominator

~~~~~~~~~

Change The World


If I could reach the stars
I'd pull one down for you
Shine it on my heart, so you could see the truth
That this love inside, is everything it seems
But for now I find, it's only in my dreams

That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really somethin' good
Baby if I could change the world

If I could be queen even for a day
I'd take you as my kind, I'd have it no other way
And our love would rule, in this kingdom that we had made
Til then I'll be a fool, wishin' for the day

~~~~~~~~~

Don't Look Back


Time to walk away
You've run out of things to say
Everything ends up the same old story
You don't know where love went
But nothing's making sense
You both know you can't fake it anymore

Don't look back he'll see you cryin'
Don't look back on love that's dyin'
Make believe your heart is made of stone
Don't look back into his eyes
You've already said goodbye
It's over now, you've got to let him go

He's the one you love
But sometimes love is not enough
It's too complicated to explain
No you never will forget
But you'll get over it
Someday just sweet memories will remain

So don't look back, don't break your will
Don't look back at him until
You're far enough to let your feelings show
Don't look back into those eyes
You've gone back so many times
It's over now you've got to let him go

There's a time for everything including leavin'
There's a time the heart admits defeat
And starts its grieving


~~~~~~~~~

Old Enough To Know Better


You'd think I'd have the sense to run
Knowin' where you're comin' from
I can't bring myself to go
Heaven help me I can't say no

I see forever in your deep blue eyes
And I know where the danger lies
Tell me what's a girl to do
When she's up against the likes of you

I'm old enough to know better
But too young to resist
I'd hate to lie awake at night
Wonderin' what I might have missed
But somethin' tells me your trouble
The only trouble is
I'm old enough to know better
But too young to resist

Now good things come to those who wait
Somethin' tells me this is fate
And after all that I've been through
I'm gonna trust my heart to you

I suppose where love's concerned
Some fools just never learn
Lying here in your arms tonight
I can't help but feel
It's gonna be all right be all right

[Strong Atheist]

42. I have had a few throughout my lifetime. This one comes to mind

even the losers (tom petty)

Well, it was nearly all summer we sat on your roof
Yeah, we smoked cigarettes and we stared at the moon
And I’d show you stars you never could see
Baby, it couldn’t have been that easy to forget about me

Baby, time meant n othing, anything seemed real
Yeah, you could kiss like fire and you made me feel
Like every word you said was meant to be
No, it couldn’t have been that easy to forget about me

Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the lo sers keep a little bit of pride
They get lucky sometimes

Two cars parked on the overpass,
Rocks hit the water like broken glass
I should have known right then it was too good to last
God, it’s such a drag when you’re livin’ in the past

Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the losers keep a little bit of pride
They get lucky sometimes

Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the losers keep a little bit of pride
Yeah, they get lucky sometimes

Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the losers get lucky sometimes

Even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the losers get lucky sometimes

44. Hmmm.... don't be so hard on yourself!

48. It's actually a really couple-ish song, but I love it to pieces....

Moondance

Well, it’s a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
’neath the cover of october skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I’m trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the night’s magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush

Chorus:
Can I just have one a’ more moondance with you, my love
Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love

Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
I can’t wait ’til the morning has come
And I know that the time is just right
And straight into my arms you will run
And when you come my heart will be waiting
To make sure that you’re never alone
There and then all my dreams will come true, dear
There and then I will make you my own
And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside
And I know how much you want me that you can’t hide

Chorus

Repeat 1st verse

One more moondance with you in the moonlight
On a magic night
La, la, la, la in the moonlight
On a magic night
Can’t I just have one more dance with you my love

[Strong Atheist]

51. Yes, I know it. nt.

[Ramsey]

52. Rock the Casbah

That was the theme song assigned to me by my high school class. Truly, it's in my yearbook!

[Strong Atheist]

58. A very good song! nt.

53. "I'm Holding Out For A Hero"

Where have all the good men gone
and where are all the Gods
Where's the street-wise Hercules,
to fight the rising odds.

Isn't there a white knight
upon an fiery steed?
Late at night, I toss and turn and dream of what I need


Chorus

I need a hero, I'm holding out for a hero til the end of the night.
he's got to be strong, he's got to be fast, and he's got to be fresh from the fight.
I need a hero, I'm holding out for a hero til the morning light.
He's got to be sure and he's got to be soon, and he's got to be larger than life.

Somewhere after midnight
in my wildest fantasy
Somewhere, just beyond my reach
there's someone reaching back for me.

Racing on the thunder, rising with the heat
It's gonna take a Superman to sweep me off my feet.


When the mountains meet the heavens above
and when the lightning splits the sea
I could swear there's someone somewhere watching me.
Through the wind and the chill and the rain
and the storm and the flood
I can feel his approach like a fire in my blood.






I far prefer Jennifer Saunders singing it in "Shrek 2" to the original Bonnie Tyler recording from "Footloose" (stupid, stupid movie). I am holding out for a hero, and it is going to take someone pretty special to knock me off my feet.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

57. I love that song in "Shrek 2"

:rofl:

54. Casanova 70 by Air

Instrumental. I float around against a backdrop of subdued lounge music which eventually shakes out into a massive grunge-synth breakdown. Shit, no wonder people think I'm crazy.

59. Scarlet Begonias

In younger years I wore a lot of rings and moccasins with bells sewn on them. This song kind of stuck to me. People used to sing it when I came around. My ex was in a Dead cover band and he would often play this for me at shows.

Scarlet Begonias words by Robert Hunter music by Jerry Garcia

As I was walkin' round Grosvenor Square
Not a chill to the winter
but a nip to the air
From the other direction
she was calling my eye
It could be an illusion
but I might as well try
Might as well try.

She had rings on her fingers and
bells on her shoes,
And I knew without askin' she was
into the blues
Scarlet begonias
tucked into her curls
I knew right away
she was not like other girls--
other girls


In the thick of the evening
when the dealing got rough
She was too pat to open and
too cool to bluff
As I picked up my matches and
was closing the door
I had one of those flashes:
I'd been there before--
been there before.



I ain't often right
but I've never been wrong
It seldom turns out the way
it does in the song
Once in a while
you get shown the light
in the strangest of places
if you look at it right


Well there ain't nothin' wrong
with the way she moves
Or scarlet begonias or a
touch of the blues
And there's nothing wrong with
the love that's in her eye
I had to learn the hard way
to let her pass by--
let her pass by


The wind in the willows played Tea for Two
The sky was yellow and the sun was blue
Strangers stopped strangers
just to shake their hand
Everybody's playing
in the Heart of Gold Band
Heart of Gold Band

60. Fish Heads

Fish heads, Fish heads,
Roly poly fish heads,
Fish heads, Fish heads,
Eat them up, Yum!

62. I recognize that! Weird al? nt.

61. Its a Mad World...

a song by Tears for Fears, but I prefer Michael Andrews version of it better....

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places
Worn out faces

Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere
Going nowhere

Their tears are filling up their glasses
no expression
No expression

Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
no tomorrow
No tomorrow

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which i´m dying
Are the best i´ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you
´cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It´s a very very
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy birthday
Happy birthday

Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen
Sit and listen

Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me
No one knew me

Now the teacher tells me what´s my lesson
Look right through me
Look right through me

And I find it kind of funny...
