Hummin' tunes?


I'll get back to you...

This may be of interest to budding guitar heroes and heroines!

in memory of one hit wonder Andrea True who died recently

More More More / Andrea True Connection

She only recorded the song cos the Jamaican authorities wouldn't let her leave the island with her porn star earnings so she had to spend it somehow. What better than to make a porn star worldwide hit.

I've been humming all day ;o)...

'You're to blame' - Elizabeth McQueen...honestly it's good...has a dada dadadada da dada dadada thingy going on throughout.

Chuck Berry's My Ding a Ling

Mariana - the Imagineers

Waiting for My Chance to Come - Noah and the Whale

I and Love and You - The Avett Brothers

To Ohio - The Low Anthem

City of New Orleans - Arlo Guthrie

Together Forever - Rab Noakes

The Rock - Frankie Miller

Aw naw.. I'm just gutted to learn that Andrea True is dead.

I love that record - it's the piano bit in the middle, just infectious.

Still, good that she'll be remembered for 'More More More' rather than 'Deep Throat 2', which I have to say, I've never seen. I've never seen Deep Throat 1 either, by the way.

Massive 2nd, Paulo for

I'm more usually hummin' on a Monday than on a Tuesday. Don't blame it on the sunshine (nor the moonshine) - blame it on the netball. Nothing a nice bada doobiedobbie can't sort..........................
#5 julie - massive seconds for that one. Lovely upbeat (bossa nova? I'm no the musician in the house, ah dah kain) rhythm, freshly sweet (not sickly) lyrics. Fab! Really cheery - had me hooked the first time I heard it. Uncle Vic - please give the nation a wee sunshine boost. A guaranteed mood lifter. ;o)

Pretty gutted myself Henri. 35 years I've been waiting for a half decent follow up






To the song that is, not the film

#9 Spaced out, man.....

#3

Should be interesting



You Still Believe In Me - Beach Boys - You want melody? - Brian's your man
Tear Stained Letter - Richard Thompson - Infectious and unusually upbeat from the master of gloom and doom from the tomb
Lay Down - The Strawbs - Singalongadave

Choosday choons:

I can't stop lovin you - Ray Charles


Betcha can't stop whistlin it now

# 13 As regular as a scratched record, tell us about Brass In Pocket again ;-)

only after you reach your 1000th blog moan

#7 A huge 'second' for Gaies' suggestion of the Low Anthem (To Ohio)... a bit of sublime harmony never did anyone any harm.

Incredibly catchy:

The Black Keys - Sister

Mesmeric:

Vanessa Da Mata & Ben Harper - Boa Sorte (Good Luck)

Previously on the Blog...
#60 They certainly brought the Scottish weather with them. (A wee bit better the day). Having lunch with some of them this week. Will bring up the Lorne sausage.

A bit of 70s harmonisation.

"Romeo" - Mr Big

Keep it 70's!
Was there a worst decade for mens hair? Thank goodness we had Cossack.

Adam,

Lemme get this straight...

You intend to bring up your breakfast to make room for your lunch?

Izzat like going to the cludgie to make room for more beer?

Adam,

Have we ever had Metaphors as a theme?

Does "Romeo" - Mr. Big hold the record for the greatest number of metaphors crammed into one song?

Thou shall not invoke personal attacks.

One of the magical powers blogs and wikis seem to possess is the capability of turning otherwise sensible people into bickering schoolchildren. Unless the discussion subject is "Say something insulting about somebody who holds a different opinion than you," leave the personal invective out. Rule of thumb: Argue with the post, not the poster.

Dont think we have.

Mr Big will certainly be remembered for their lyrics. That and the lead singer's nose.

#21 #23

An unfortunate choice of words, certainly.

I think we need some snappy advertising. How about an Astrud Gilberto soundtrack, Ipanema Beach, Robbie Coltrane in tight Speedos turns to the camera and says, "It's the sausage of Samba."

#27
No bad.
You were asking about our preparations for the Cup, this was on the Beeb yesterday.

They're clearing out all the hooligans to make way for those with foreign currency.

I see what you mean Mr Dartin, perhaps I should have done as Mr Bonfire and put the ;-).

That way it's not personal

Scotch, this is probably essential viewing if the Methaphor Theme gets the go ahead.

#31

Yeah.

We could have a figures of speech week of themes.

This time it's personification

Thanks for playing Janelle Monae last night, much appreciated.

Tunes you can't get out of your head:

If God Did Give Me a Choice - The Leisure Society Please!

Somewhere In Between - Kate Bush

Let Em In - McCartney/Wings

Elbow - One Day Like This. I haven't been able to stop singing this (badly) for 3 years now!

More Scottish Power to your.....
