Brian Enos's Forums... Maku mozo!

Name that tune!


Anubis

Recommended Posts

I try and let these sit for a week or two if I don’t know the song/artist before using my search-fu.  It has led me to some interesting music.

GrumpyOne’s song is “Communique” by Pick  while Dranoel’s is “11:59” by Blondie


 

Here’s another from my eclectic play lists:

 

Walkin' up the street you can hear the sound
Of some bad honky tonkers really layin' it down
They've seen it all for years and got nothin' to lose
So get down on the floor shimmy 'til you shake sumpin' loose

That's just the waves slamming against the topsides' sound
Don't let the ever rolling motion go and get you down
Don't let it shake your steady thread cutting hand
Keep stealing ribbons from the steel and giving hell
To every halyard you can

I'm too foggy today to know what you're sayin'
Your lips are moving so fast and I just keep praying
For them to slow down so I can make some sense
Of the words that are pouring out of your crooked spout

And found out that the pie

Don't taste so sweet

A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
But I am still around

Well, we laid it in a hollows and we laid it in the flat
And if it doesn't last forever, sure I swear, I'll eat me hat
Well, I've wandered up and down the world and sure I never felt
Any surface that was equal to the hot asphalt

Been riding hard for three days

And I can't turn back now

They sentenced me to hang

But I slipped away somehow

Anyone can tell-  Heavy Horses.  Great Band.  Pale Rider Seems like an homage to Clint Eastwood movies.

 

Next:

 

"She asked me name my foe then
I said the need within some men
To fight and kill their brothers without thought of love or God"

Feel the magic, I feel it floating in the air
But it's fear, and you'll hear
It calling you beware.”

Long lean neck
Swear it was a woman

Johnny got a boom boom by Imelda May

 

 


Every time we disagree she was always asking me
Are you a man or a mouse?
Now that she's gone she probably thinks that I'm home just a moping around the house

Looked it up so we could continue.  Hermans hermits, "Two silhouettes"

 

In a little cafe
Just the other side of the border
She was just sitting there givin' me looks
That made my mouth water

Well, I met a pretty gal, she was tall and thin
I asked her what she had, she said a Fox four-ten
I looked her up and down, said boy this is love
So we headed for the brush to shoot a big fat dove

Cigar bands on your hands
Your daddy's socks rolled down
Sticks, no plugs and aviator caps, with flaps that button down
Movie stars on Dixie cup tops and knickers to your knees

The Statler Brothers, Do You Remember These

 

 

Up by the bus stop and across the street
Open up their windows to take a peek
Y'all she goes walking, rockin' like a rollin' stone

And just then, her mother bursts in

And said "You're that son of that bitch in the wind
Get outta my house and hit the road

And I kept falling like a rollin' stone song
