AM GOLD!

October 20, 2012 3:43 pm

I met a fan dancer
Down in southside Birmingham
She was running from a fat man
Sselling salvation in his hand
JACOB'S LADDER - HUEY LEWIS & THE NEWS  from FORE!, one of the most disappointing follow-up albums in my collection. I have SPORTS and their self titled first album, both of which I consider excellant but FORE! is just a lazy piece of record making IMHO. It doesn't help that this song was written by Bruce Hornsby and recorded in a much better performance on his second album.

NEXT LYRICS:  I just listened to this song working in the school library the other day


I have climbed the highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you

I have run I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you[]

I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For - U2

Great choice!
And I agree with what Wheat said on another thread - Fans always seems to have a lot of great insight on a lot of things - music and otherwise.

Slip,
Good job sneaking that Bruce tune in here before I noticed the theme change. It was the first song I thought of too!

I would climb any mountain
Sail across a stormy sea
If that's what it takes me baby
To show you how much you mean to me

And let others do for you
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung

Great follow-up!

I also like Rod Stewart's loose interpretation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGEe_zpddNI,

and Alphaville's completely different song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1TcDHrkQYg

It doesnt't't hurt me.
Do you want to feel how it feels?
Do you want to know that it doesnt't't hurt me?
Do you want to hear about the deal that Im making?
You, it's you and me.

Running Up That Hill - Kate Bush. Today's NY Daily News has excerpts from a new Bruce book. I'm sure Rhino will get it before it makes the shelves.


Climb up, way up high
Well-a well-a well-a heavenly angel
I want you for my girl
When I kissed your sweet, sweet lips
I knew that you were out of this world

Just curious if anyone else had ever heard of G.G. Allin, who I posted about the other day. He basically believed that rock and roll was born out of rebellion, so he took rebellion to the nth degree. He had a band called the Murder Junkies. Nice

Rise Up - The Nylons. Doing ok Slip, the busier I am the better off I am. Allin's given name at birth was Jesus Christ. There are videos of him on youtube performing at some real sheet-hole clubs. Not for the squeamish.


I'd climb the Empire State, fight Muhammad Ali

Jacobs Ladder - Bruce Hornsby


I am the key to the lock in your house
That keeps your toys in the basement.
And if you get too far inside
You'll only see my reflection.

Climbing Up the Walls - Radiohead

I never really got into Radiohead, but I have friends who say I should definitely check them out.  Are you a big fan Slip?



She could feel my despair as I climbed up her hair
And discovered her invisible self

OK, Good theme change, but I'll add one last "climb" song since I didn't get one in before:

Let's swim to the moon, uh huh
Let's climb through the tide
Penetrate the evenin' that the
City sleeps to hide

Let's swim out tonight, love
It's our turn to try
Parked beside the ocean


and the new theme:

American boy, American girl
Most beautiful people in the world
Son of a frontier Indian swirl
Dancing through the midnight whirl-pool
Formless, hope it can continue
A little while longer

Hi mj. No, I am not a Radiohead fan. I couldn't tell you any of their songs. I was struggling to find a song about climbing or rising. I figured somebody must have a song about climbing the walls so I googled it and thats what came up.

I saw a top albums list awhile ago and I think I saw 1 of their albums at number 2 or 3.

Take care,

slip

I've done that many times myself, Slip, sometimes I find new stuff that I really like.  These threads can open your eyes to new music in many ways.

These threads are the source of my new found knowledge about your av. I knew very little about him until after seeing him here and you guys talking about him then I investigated a little. He was a very interesting character that's for sure. Not afraid to be a little different. I admire that.

Stairway To Heaven - Neil Sedaka  ( who knew !)


Talkin' 'bout the right time to be workin' for peace
Wantin' all the tension in the world to ease
This tightrope's gotta learn how to bend
We're makin' new plans
Gonna start it again


How you doing clean ?

Sorry, never heard of that guy (G.G. Allin ?). From the sounds of it, not sure I wanna.

Take care.

Love this tune!
Rhino, it's my favorite Dylan tune to play, mostly 'cause it's really easy.  Also my brother in law used to sing this together and replace the line, "supplied with sleep" with, "supplied with sheep."  We found this very amusing, although I have to admit, there was some herbal aid to our amusement.
