The Nostalgia Thread

[Sudo]

Chas,

I'm sorry you couldn't get the link to play. I think that's one reason we don't get more folks playing with us.. problems woth their connection or media players or sumpin'. As you can see, we really do have a good time even if it gets slow every now and then. You were correct, though.. Rick had posted the theme to New Line Cinema and *I* and I alone was the one who got it. Everyone feel free to genuflect.

Hey George.. talking 'bout popular songs that were a bit odd.. click HERE! for some strange lyrics. Remember it? Great tune but the lyrics??

I always heard about the Burn the Chaff thing. Never went. I would never burn something that I loved because some jerk told me to.

But then, as some of you already know, I was a bad little wayfer. :)

Rick

We were encouraged to do it on our own more than with someone else. That allowed us to privately burn what we thought was chaff. Of course that was after much definition had been supplied as to what chaff was.

And yes you were a very bad wayfer you were. Don't you feel bad? Not!

Hey Cowgirl. Thanks for posting those two Eagles song. I love the Eagles. Saw them in concert with KISS many years ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How about REO Speedwagon???

Do you like them??

Act2, how warmly cool to see you. Is warmly cool anything like that blonde that bought the thermos because she saw it shining in the hardware store window and went in to inquire as to what it was. When told it kept things hot and cold she was thrilled at such a device and purchased it. Taking it in to work the next day she proudly showed off this shinny multi-use find and when asked what she had brought she replied a cup of coffee and some ice cream.

I love REO Speedwagon but don't have anything of theirs and wonder why. One of my favorite is I Can't Stop This Feeling. Here is a little bit about them that ties to what I said earlier about live or studio performers.

REO Speedwagon's first live album, You Get What You Play For, proved to be the first real commercial success and was certified platinum. The band was always dissatisfied with the producers on their studio albums because they continually failed to capture on tape the same quality as the band's energetic and ever-popular live show. The live album, which was self-produced, changed that. Indeed, all subsequent albums would have band members participating as producers.

Sudo, I LOVE that song!!!!!

Does that make me strange? :blink: <_<

I must not be so oh oh oh... :unsure:

I've always loved the song (including the lyrics)! Guess that makes us both strange...NOT.

[ChattyKathy]

We be cool!

[Sudo]

Ladies,

It's always good to know you've got company if you know you're strange. Maybe we could have a strange convention. BTW.. for all us strange ones out there... here's the good MP3... click HERE! :blink:

[ChattyKathy]

Thanks, cause I want it for my library.

Sweet dreams all!

[GeorgeStGeorge]

It's amazing to think that the group that did so much "serious" rock had these little, goofy songs: "Maxwell's Magic Hammer," "Rory Raccoon," "An Octopus's Garden," "Yellow Submarine." Gotta love 'em!

George

[moony3424]

George, It's "Maxwell's Silver Hammer" :)

What do you mean goofy song? I thought it was a serious, historical song?

[ChattyKathy]

Okay, so like is someone going to look that up? :unsure: :)

[bowtwi]

No need to look it up, Dearest Chattyone - it's Maxwell's Silver Hammer. One of my favorites. If there was an Alfred E. Newman smiley I would use it here and say, "Trust Me."

[ChattyKathy]

But is it historical, and now I see the part you're talking about the word silver rather than magic. :)

[Sudo]

Hey Bowtwi!

Are you coming down to play with us?? I've gots a few movie company themes I've been posting.. Here's an oldie since this *IS* the Nostalgia thread! Just click on the picture below to hear the theme and name the movie studio!!

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Well, it's three letters (and not RKO). By the way, "Ars gratia artis" means "art for the sake of art." Latin, doncha know!

George

[ChattyKathy]

[hiway29]

and it's Rocky Raccoon, not Rory-

Sudo-I don't think there's anyone anywhere who doesn't know that studio by the lion alone.

[moony3424]

But is it historical, and now I see the part you're talking about the word silver rather than magic. :)

Sorry Kathy, just my sick attempt at humor. I don't think it is.

[Sudo]

Hiway29,

Re:"I don't think there's anyone anywhere who doesn't know that studio by the lion alone."

Now you might be surprised. Sure, we've all seen movies that came on that way but.. which studio was it exactly folks may be asking themselves. Let's see how it goes :)

[ChasUFarley]

MGM....

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Not to be confused with MYM:

George

[Cowgirl]

I couldn't make up my mind which one I liked best, so you get the privilege of hearing them both.......

I like (and have) them both. :)

[ChattyKathy]

Cowgirl,

EXCELLENT!!!!!

Especially the second one which I LOVE!!!!!

Moon Girl,

I thought it might have had some history really. :) You know quite a bit about this music stuff I've noticed.

Sudo,

meow (yup I know not that one) :)

But Chas is the original meow I think.

[act2]

Cowgirl, I cant listen to these songs!!! I am eating my oatmeal and cant dance!!!!!!!!!!!

Love them both.... now how about some REO???

Good morning to all of you.

I am soon to be heading to my little part-time job!!! My boss bought me a brand new computer last nite so it will be fun putting it together today.

[ChattyKathy]

How was your computer experience today? <_<

I don't have any REO, let's see if someone shows up with some. :unsure:

Again I'm very thankful you were missed recently with that tornado. Not nearly as close but close enough.

Now as to you not being able to eat and dance at the same time. I bet ya could.
