[912jws]

A classic tune from the 90's courtesy of Mr Tong's label -

Sterling Void - It's alright and the music goes on and on and on ;)

Another Des'ree track(Crazy Maze) which has really nice lyrics, can't seem to find a youtube on this but it's really worth a listen is you fancy a boost!

Money don´t make my world go round
I´m reaching out to a higher ground
To a warm and peaceful place
I can rest my weary face

Life´s answers we try to find
Battling inside our minds
Where do I go from here?
Will all my friends be there?

CHORUS:
Cause we´re living, we´re living in a crazy maze
and we´re fighting, we´re fighting to rise above the haze
light´s at the end of the tunnel
sometimes the journey is long
there are many theories
who´s right and who´s wrong?

The pressure´s on I have to choose
I've got nothing to lose
I close my eyes I take a chance
Now I dance a different dance.

What´s the key to a happy life?
A healthy mind and lots of spice
Running barefoot through the trees
That´s my idea of free

CHORUS

I pack my bags, I´m on my way
Don´t know where I´m gonna stay
I´m on the train bound destiny
I can set my spirit free.

CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS
Cause we´re living, yes, we´re living in a crazy maze
and we´re fighting, we´re fighting to rise above the haze
light´s at the end of the tunnel
the journey may be long
there are many theories
who´s right and who´s wrong?

[912jws]

Sounds of Blackness - Optimistic
Massive Attack - Unfinished Sympathy
The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony

[kyalan]

No mate, when's that happening? Wouldn't mind going to see that if had the cash :(

[kyalan]

lol - feel good tunes that lift you up

Jay Z - "I've got 99 problems, but a b*tch ain't 1" :D

[Micou]

Hmmm, my feel good tunes do tend to vary, but at the current time I tend to find myself listening to:

The Things Your Man Won't Do by Joe
Pretty Girl by Jon B
Rise by Gabrielle
Defying Gravity from the show "Wicked"
You Should Be Mine (Woo Woo Song) by Jeffrey Osborne - who remembers that? LOOOOOOL
What A Fool Believes by Doobie Brothers
Call The Man by Celine Dion
Ave Maria by Celine Dion - this is my fave at those moments when I feel that knife of agony turning in my heart. I just surrender to it and bawl my eyes out!!!
Irreplaceable by Beyonce - To the left, to the left . . .

:p

[Micou]

Ooooh, I forgot to mention that tune from the new Comfort advert "do the moves, do the moves, let me see you do the moves . . ." the kids and I do our thaaaaaang around the living room every time that advert comes on - I love the caterpillar strutting his stuff at the end . . .

Speaking of adverts! I also really love that "pacha boom, pacha boom, what happened to da band?" from the Baileys advert with that lady shaking the drinks shaker/mixer thingy. It's not a pretty sight to see me trying to wiggle my butt to that . . . my kids tend to fall about laughing, but I really love that tune!

:p :cool: ;) :D

[912jws]

Jay Z - "I've got 99 problems, but a b*tch ain't 1" :D

Lol - Good track

Nickleback are playing mid September in London, tickets are quite pricey though at £50 upwards :eek:

I posted a Staind track on the other thread - it seems quite appropriate to our situations :rolleyes: good track all the same and good video ;)

[SadBill]

Lay, lady lay.

(lay across my big brass bed)

[lonelylass]

Black Betty by ?
96 Tears - The Stranglers
Is this the way to Amarillo - Peter Kay - Always gets me singing along!:D

Who hasn't got the later stuck in their head now?

LoLa x

[teacherman]

Black Betty was by a group called RAM JAM - what sort of innuendo's will we get from that one.


One that really lifts me up at the moment is the Mark Ronson/Amy Winehouse version of Valerie, The music Video is superb - All those Lurvly young ladies (He He)

[lonelylass]

Oh I love Valerie too, really upbeat tune, forgot about that one. Thanks for the Ram Jam, no wonder I couldn't remember it!! Still can't remember them now........:D

Rockstar by Nickleback is another one I like at the moment, rock chic really, me!

[kyalan]

So that's me, Jon and now Lola going to see Nickelback at Wembley so far.....anyone else?? :D

[Micou]

Me please :confused:

[lonelylass]

Pick me up on the way Kyalan!! Could do with a rocking night out!!:D

LoLa x

PS Micou, you're reasonably close to Wembley aren't you? Fancy three lodgers for the night!!:)

[912jws]

Yeah, screw everything, let all go out for an evening of some loud enjoyable rock music and a few drinks. I am sure we could all with a decent night out and forget about our troubles :) I have one spare room and a couch and 30 mins from London :D

[kyalan]

Will have to wait til I get some cash, but that sounds like a fantastic idea!

Last time I went to London was to the Astoria to see Cradle of Filth.....absolutely brilliant!!

Are there any decent heavy metal/rock clubs in London? They closed the 2 best ones in my town...:(

Looks like we're staying at Micou's house for the night ;)

Kyalan

[val100]

Yeap that sounds like a plan.

Cradle of filth Kyalan ???? seriously and you wonder what happened..... JOKING
but seriously cradle of filth oh how I laughed. Over here we have a fantstic radio skit and Daniel o Donnell is on it (obviously not the real one) and that is one of his favourite bands he is always talking about them.
I must get the address of where ye can get the pod casts some of it is real irish stuff but other skits will rock your world so funny. Gift grub Today fm that is all I know for now.
I have a few places to stay in London so I am ok plus girls keep yer options open we may pull a few long haired pierced rock and rollers also I believe they would have a drug dealer on speed dial and the girls come easy (ha thats what they think )
I am going to see Radio head and massive attack some of us just can't let go of the past.
Talk soon, I am Getting better

[teacherman]

Who the F***s Nickleback
I'm too old for all that rocking about - No decent rock group around any more

But

If someone can resurect the following then i am in.

Thin Lizzy
Whitesnake
Saxon
Deff Leopard
AC/DC
Black Sabbath

Ohhhhhhhhh The memories (Often wondered what caused my deafness)
