This song has been running through my head all day. You might think it's a weird song to post here, but there's a story to go along with it and where better to post this stuff than morrissey-solo?

In another life, I did some volunteer work with these two old teddy boys. Real stand-up guys. They were from Memphis, but had spent the last 30 years or so working on oil rigs before retiring to Florida. I assumed they were brothers because they were nearly identical: the same deep copper suntans, rough hands, and the sort of faces you get from years of hard work out in the elements.

One night we were at an awful, stuffy civic event. You could see they'd made an effort with their freshly greased quiffs, bolo ties, and perfect sideburns. About halfway through this dirge, one got up and had a few words with the deejay, and about ten minutes later this song

http://download.yousendit.com/D680CCD12E5E0625

rolled out of the speakers. Then, without even looking at one another, they clasped hands. You would never have known it unless you were sitting right next to them, as I was. The little one leaned over to me with a light in his eyes I'd never seen and said, "It's our anniversary and this is our song."

When we said goodbye that night I gave them both a big hug, hoping that some of that magic might rub off. Then I walked home through the park humming this song.

"...Well I see Jane's awake --

She sends her regards.
And what can I tell you my brother, my killer
What can I possibly say?
I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you
I'm glad you stood in my way.

If you ever come by here, for Jane or for me
Your enemy is sleeping, and his woman is free.

Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes
I thought it was there for good so I never tried.

And Jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night that you planned to go clear"


This song is way too beautiful.

Yes, great song chica! Always feeling a bit sad after hearing that

Ocean Rain Lyrics

All at sea again
And now my hurricanes have brought down this ocean rain
To bathe me again
My ship's a sail
Can you hear its tender frame
Screaming from beneath the waves
Screaming from beneath the waves


All hands on deck at dawn
Sailing to sadder shores
Your port in my heavy storms
Harbours the blackest thoughts


I'm at sea again
And now your hurricanes have brought down this ocean rain
To bathe me again
My ship's a sail
Can you hear its tender frame
Screaming from beneath the waves
Screaming from beneath the waves...


All hands on deck at dawn
Sailing to sadder shores
Your port in my heavy storms
Harbours the blackest thoughts


All hands on deck at dawn
Sailing to sadder shores
Your port in my heavy storms
Harbours the blackest thoughts


All at sea again
And now my hurricanes have brought down this ocean rain
To bathe me again
My ship's a sail
Hear its tender frame
Screaming from beneath the waves
Screaming from beneath your waves
Screaming from beneath the waves
Screaming from beneath the waves


All hands on deck at dawn
Sailing to sadder shores
Your port in my heavy storms
Harbours the blackest thoughts

Campigner - Neil Young

I am a lonely visitor.
I came too late to cause a stir,
Though I campaigned all my life
towards that goal.
I hardly slept the night you wept
Our secret's safe and still well kept
Where even Richard Nixon has got soul.
Even Richard Nixon has got
Soul.

Traffic cops are all color blind.
People steal from their own kind.
Evening comes to early for a stroll.
Down neon streets the streaker streaks.
The speaker speaks,
but the truth still leaks,
Where even Richard Nixon has got soul.
Even Richard Nixon has got it,
Soul.

The podium rocks in the crowded waves.
The speaker talks of the beautiful saves
That went down long before
he played this role
For the hotel queens and the magazines,
Test tube genes and slot machines
Where even Richard Nixon got soul.
Even Richard Nixon has got it,
Soul.

Hospitals have made him cry,
But there's always a freeway in his eye,
Though his beach just got
too crowded for his stroll.
Roads stretch out like healthy veins,
And wild gift horses strain the reins,
Where even Richard Nixon has got soul.
Even Richard Nixon has got
Soul.

I am a lonely visitor.
I came too late to cause a stir,
Though I campaigned all my life
towards that goal.

then beat me black and blue with my book of prayers.

I closed my eyes until they were gone and then fell asleep with my headphones on.

You were our patron saint yet still they blame us for only praying to be famous.

I don't even know whether to post this:

1. It was not quite at the seaside, but very close
2. They never actually used the prayer book for corporal punishment, but I sometimes made involuntary contact with paddles from those paddle ball things they'd confiscated
3. They took away my headphones, but an old transistor radio earjack fooled them.

Yesterday I was reading the "Alone" thread opened by Zippy in the General Discussion part of the forum. I didn't want to disrespect the thread or the people on it, but every time I think of getting old and dying alone (which in itself doesn't bother me), I involuntarily remember this song.

Marie Prevost was a silent movie star, popular throughout the 1920's. With the advent of talkies her work dried up, and she got depressed, packed on the pounds and hit the bottle. She was found dead from alcoholism and malnutrition in her Hollywood apartment in January 1937, age 38. They figure she was like that for about two weeks, and the really awful part is that her pet dachshund had chewed her up a little. Nobody's sure whether he was trying to rouse her, or whether he was just hungry.

Nick Lowe wrote a song about it, Marie Prevost, and I'm listening to it on my birthday. And when I'm old, I'll make sure the dogs and cats have plenty of food...

Frida Hyvönen - The Modern

"Man-Slag". Written and performed by my thirteen year old daughter. I think she has rather confused feelings for this boy, lol! Here's the lyric:

Man-Slag

"You're such a man-slag and a two-timing tart.
I'm writing about you and you're wasting my arm.
My friend says she loves you and I say that you're hot,
But you know you're not really breaking my heart.

You got a bj off the class slut;
She was a wannabe Vicky Pollard.
Every time you joke at me and turn me down,
I remember the time you wore my bra

Every day you flirt with me. You feel my arse -
I think it's kinda sweet.
Everyone else says that you're a pervert,
But I think you're kinda neat

Me and Abbie think that your favourite subject
Is definitely your penis.
We both think you're really obsessed
By your small and shrivelled penis." :eek:

And to think, at that age I was gazing at my Bay City Rollers posters and sighing romantically....

Anything Jesus Does I Can Do Better - The Locust

Carly Simon - You're So Vain

You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht
Your hat strategically dipped below one eye
Your scarf it was apricot
You had one eye in the mirror as you watched yourself gavotte
And all the girls dreamed that they'd be your partner
They'd be your partner, and....

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you
You're so vain, I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't you?

You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive
Well you said that we made such a pretty pair
and that you would never leave

But you gave away the things you loved and one of them was me
I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee, clouds in my coffee and....

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you.....

Well I hear you went up to Saratoga and your horse naturally won
Then you flew your Lear jet up to Nova Scotia to see the total eclipse of the sun
Well, you're where you should be all of the time
And when you're not you're with
Some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend
Wife of a close friend, and....

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you.....

Sing Your Life

argh! that's the one song from that album that really annoys me, i can't listen to it, i have to skip it.

Personally, I liked this explanation best:

"I've never, ever told who You're So Vain is about. But I will tell you since you're so very pretty in that pink sweater....it's about the young Oprah Winfrey."
