Eight shows to go until the winner is declared!

Adam,

Dionne Warwick spends a lot of time in Brazil. Are y'all neighbours?

"Write on the cross at the head of my grave
For women and whusky here lies a poor slave
Take warning dear stranger take warning dear friend
Then write in big letters these words at the end ...

Cigareets and whuskey and wild wild women
They'll drive you crazy they'll drive you insane"

.......... The Sons of the Pioneers

Anyone know who tonight's producer was?

And, is Dionne Warwick gay?

thanks

1) see #6

2) I think not, but I know why you felt the need to ask.

Here's an indictment we're all going to run from...



Whoa, Black Betty, ram a lam, whoa, Black Betty.
Black Betty had a child, ram a lam, damn thing gone wild!




Who's suggesting these themes, is this not kinda like ear-worms???

Young MC - 'Know How'

I'll treat 'em like doublemint gum and start chewin'
"I spit 'em out when the flavour's gone
And I repeat the chewin' practice 'til the break of dawn"

"I got know-how...and I'm chillin', never illin'
In my mouth I got two fillin's...whatever!"

Love this track though...really funky...like the sampling of the 'Theme From Shaft'

Oh dear...what can I say...this is just completely full of cringeworthy rhymes...but it's quite a jolly wee tune...

'Recycle Michael' - P.D.Dewhurst (trivia item...he's 6'7" tall)




Sure Ian Anderson's played this.

听
On the flute?

#14 yes dear...

#6 there were points awarded for this evening's dross?

听
*sigh*


Playing a song requested by Scotch Git = 10 points

Playing a Country song (regardless of requester) = 5 points

Ergo, playing a Country song requested by Scotch Git = 15 points

P.S. March Bonus! Throughout March, a bonus 5 points will be awarded for Country songs requested by Scotch Git, giving a total of 20 points towards the grand prize of a CHOCOLATE EGG

N.B. Competition open to Get It On producers ONLY!


Bambi killers need not apply.


;o)

Look at the brick wal gravestone where some kid sprayed,
Saying nobody could be bothered to rule here ok
Don't believe what you see on tv
There's no romance for Joey in the city....

Joey's on the street again -The Boomtown Rats

Why did they write a song about a kangaroo?

I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha)
I wanna really, really, really wanna zigazig ah

If you want my future, forget my past
If you wanna get with me, better make it fast
Now don't go wasting my precious time
Get your act together we could be just fine

Spice gills - rhyme kills

#20 Geldof didn't give a XXXX for marsupials

He just wanted your Koalas

#16

23 tracks were played tonight, which ones do you think were dross?

I counted 6 that were obvious. The other 17 I had either never heard before or felt weren't obvious or populist choices. I'm not saying they reflected my taste, just that they weren't obvious, at least, not to me.

17 points Mandi, highest score yet.

regardez youse

henri

My love for you is immeasurable
My respect for you immense
You're ageless timelees lace and fineness
You're beauty and elegense

And then we get

You're celtic united
But baby i've decited
Youre the best team i've ever seen

If i remember rightly he also manages to rhyme 'play' with 'me'

听
Please pardon the grammar.

#23 haven't time to list them all. The Cash/Dylan one was dire, the Gotye one is rapidly becoming this year's Pop Corn, the first two didn't seem to have any sort of actual tune, Rock Bottom is a fair description of itself, Morecame and Wise - oh please.

'These comments are entirely my own and not in any way representative of the views of the blog, the general public or the 主播大秀.'

of course a large CHOCOLATE EGG would give sufficient sugar rush to allow me to think that this was a delightful and eclectic mix.

However, the class monitor says no.

Great show last night, and this is a fun little theme.

"ripping off stars from his face
funky little boat race"

Mott The Hoople - All The Young Dudes

How many points for the wee Glam gem Mr Arbiter Of Taste?

I was staying at the Marriott
With Jesus and John Wayne
I was waiting for a chariot
They were waiting for a train
The sky was full of carrion
"I'll take the mazuma"
Said Jesus to Marion
"That's the 3:10 to Yuma
..." - Warren Zevon

A tongue in cheek look at the inevitability of death with a nice 12 string hook.

#28 brilliant. Did you know that...never mind.

#27 Boat race = face. Darn no points on the Henri clapometer.

29

Yeah it's a mighty long way down rock'n'roll
From the Liverpool docks to the Hollywood Bowl

I always liked too

#27


Nice legs! (Shame about the boat race).

' I was working part time in the five and dime
My boss was Mr. McGee

He told me several times that he didn't like my kind
'Cause I was a bit too leisurely '


A bit harsh, just cos he was busy doin' somethin' close to nuthin'

Raspberry Beret / Prince

Not sure whether to blame Billy Bragg or Johnny Marr for this howler.... I would like to think that the bard of Barking was made of sterner stuff, but maybe it was an off day...

Sexuality: (Bragg/Marr)
I look like Rober De Niro
I drive a Mitsubishi Zero.

Lads, lads... please!!!

Lydia, oh Lydia, that encyclo-pidia.

The pumps dont work cause the vandals took the handles,

I said "do you speak-a my language ?" He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich,

Dont know much about algebra, dont know what a slide rule is for

I dont want to see a ghost, its a sight that i'd fear most, I'd rather have a piece of toast,

So wild, standing there with her hands in her hair

The colours of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky, are also on the faces of people going by

I'm gonna take two weeks gonna have a fine vacation. I'm gonna take my problems to the United Nations

They took all the trees put 'em in a tree museum. And they charged the people a dollar and a half just to see 'em

Well I nearly 'bout starved to death down in Memphis I run out of money and luck. So I bummed me a ride down to Macon Georgia On a overloaded poultry truck

How many times have the weatherman told you stories that made you laugh? You know its not unlike the politicians and leaders, when they do things by half

We'll go to Yonkers where true love conquers

The weekend at the college didnt turn out like you planned. The things that pass for knowledge I cant understand

I don't have digital I don't have diddly squat It's not having what you want It's wanting what you've got

Oh, I could hide 'neath the wings Of the bluebird as she sings

Near a tree by a river there's a hole in the ground where an old man of aran goes around and around

Mr Green is so serene, He's got a tv in every room

From 9 till 5 I have to spend my time at work, The job is really boring, I'm an office clerk

Power from the needle to the plastic, am, fm I feel so ecstatic

She's got a sister and god only knows how I've missed her On the palm of her hand is a blister

Locked up inside my opium den Surrounded by some china men I'd sing the song that I sang then

They seek him here, they seek him there, His clothes are loud, but never square.

And while lennon read a book of marx, The quartet practiced in the park, And we sang dirges in the dark

On a morning from a Bogart movie, in a country where they turn back time, You go strolling through the crowd like Peter Lorre contemplating a crime

Today I don't need a replacement I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant

Lord knows the cold wind blows it鈥檒l turn your head around. Well, there鈥檚 hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground

When your world is full of strange arrangements and gravity wont pull you through, you know youre missing out on something. well that something depends on you

Everybody's making love and no one really cares. There's nazis in the bathroom just below the stairs.

The way that we cheered, whenever our team was scoring a touchdown
The time that the floor fell out of my car, when I put the clutch down

I'm down the lane on Sunday morning, hungover and forever yawning

i'm a little shy, I like to stay homeo, Shakespeare's my guy. Julie and Romeo

Look at that mountain look at those trees Look at that bum over there, man He's down on his knees

Rolling like thunder under the covers

Now if I appear to be carefree, It's only to camouflage my sadness
And honey to shield my pride I try to cover this hurt with a show of gladness

Gonna write a Classic, gonna write it in an attic

.....What a tale my thoughts could tell Just like an old time movie 'Bout a ghost from a wishin' well

Abra-abra-cadabra I want to reach out and grab ya

Take me down to the paradise city Where the grass is green And the girls are pretty

A tinkling piano in the next apartment
Those stumbling words that told you what my heart meant

If there was some way to link him to the national grid
Our power needs could be met by The McCafferty Kid

  "We're as common as muck.
  
  Buona fortuna! Vaya con Dios! Good luck!
  
  Where bold is beautiful we don't give a damn...
  
  Love a duck!

I think it's 'And while Lenin read a book on Marx' ...

Although a profound reader, if John did indeed read about Marx then it was doubtless about Groucho:-))

regardez - youse

Out in the mezzanine
On the arm of a dumb marine
Her beauty looks out like a trailer
Norman Mailer
Waits to nail her
He's under the bed
And he's waiting for her to be dead
He's out on the patio
With his polaroid and scenario
And he's armed and he's dangerously....

Somewhere In Hollywood - 10CC

If you want a lover
I'll do anything you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love
I'll wear a mask for you
If you want a partner
Take my hand
Or if you want to strike me down in anger
Here I stand
I'm your man

If you want a boxer
I will step into the ring for you
And if you want a doctor
I'll examine every inch of you
If you want a driver
Climb inside
Or if you want to take me for a ride
You know you can
I'm your man

I'm Your Man - Leonard Cohen

When thinking lyrics my first stop is always ABC

All of my Heart
鈥淎dd and subtract
But as a matter of fact
Now that you're gone I still want you back鈥�

Look of Love
鈥淚f you judge a book by the cover
Then you judge the look by the lover
I hope you'll soon recover
Me, I go from one extreme to another鈥�

And of course there is the majestic
That Was Then But This Is Now
鈥淔ruit鈥檚 grown rotten on the bough
Reap what you sow, with a counterfeit plough

More sacrifices than an aztec priest
Standing here straining at that leash

Can鈥檛 complain, musn鈥檛 grumble
Help yourself to another piece of apple crumble

Hearts of oak are charged and blistered
Russians should be baby-sitted
Americans enlisted鈥�

I believe she does have a place here. Not sure where though. I'll have a look out for her next time Im doing the messages.

Rhyme crime maybe,but there ain't no rhyme for oranges....

There's a big toga party tonight down at Delta Chi
they've got Canadian bacon on their pizza pie
they've got a cooler for cold Coronas and Amstel lights
It's like were all livin' in a big ol' cup
just fire up the blender, mix it all up

It's a French kiss, Italian ice
margaritas in the moonlight
just another American Saturday night

American Saturday Night / Brad Paisley

Al.

I went sky diving
I went Rocky Mountain climbing
I went 2.7 seconds on a bull named FuManchu
and I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter
and I gave forgiveness I'd been denying
and he said someday I hope you get the chance
to live like you were dying.

Live Like You Were Dying / Tim McGraw

Space-age couple
Why don't you flex your magic muscle?
Space-age couple
Why do you hex your magic muscle?
Space-age couple
Why do you hustle 'n bustle?
Why don't you drop your cool tom-foolery
'n shed your nasty jewelry?
Cultivate the grounds
They're the only ones around.
Space-age couple
Why don't you flex your magic muscle?
Hold a drinking glass up t' your eye after you've
Scooped up a little of the sky
'n it ain't blue no more.
What's on the leaves ain't dew no more.
Space-age couple
Why don't you jus' do that?
Why don't you jus' do that?
