Have you ever listened to the album "Pornography" by The Cure - Total mind-blow!

Possibly..I was never really big on The Cure, 'cause when they were popular I was busy running after my kids and (later) doing "goth" modeling...so I stayed away. What tracks are on that one?

Jungle Jazz was what white guys called it. Black guys probably thought it was insulting. Look for Okeh Ellington or Duke Ellington's Complete Brunswick Recordings. Gloomy Sunday I got from an Artie Shaw 10 CD set I got from Oldies.com.

Aha! I kinda thought that was a weird title, if it was an album.
Maaaan, that cd set must be great!
Haven't "fleshed out" my ipod yet. Was busy getting wined and dined for V-day. PBR-ed and Blackberry Brandy-ed, actually.

I get a kick out of this one.

skulls split open.

Not in my house, they can't! I am Crusher! Bow down to me! Now help me up....my back hurts.

Been around the whole world, still ain't seen
Nothin' like my neighborhood.
And of all the fancy satin and silk,
My white cotton feels so good.

Searched high and low for a place
Where I can lay my burdens down.
Ain't nothin' in the whole wide world,
Like the peace that I have found.

It's the little things...
And the joy they bring.

Nice one. Just goes to show theres no place like home, even if it is a run-down, leaky roofed, mouse infested shack in the middle of a dust- filled and mud-filled when it rains desert like mine. I love it. Wouldnt live anywhere else.

+1, and then some. I love my house...I know who's cleaned it.

I clean my house once in a while. I get the wheelbarrow and scoop shovel and really get after it. Heres a good line, the story of my life.
When I left home I didnt have a cent, I wasnt broke but I was badly bent. Home Again Blues- Duke Ellington

[kg211970]

i'm a big fan of the wish album, what do you think of it? does it stand out like the other albums the cure made before that one? it's still my favorite album, but was just curious

There's a guy out here who plays wicked harmonica...he was recovering from surgery, so I made an apple pie for him...took it to his house and put it in the fridge and almost DIED. I have way-too-high standards when it comes to cleaning, and I don't expect anyone else to adhere to them, but I swear something said "ZOOL" and reached for me!

Bluesin' with Bessie:
I got the world in a jug, the stopper's in my hand,
I'm gonna hold it until you meet some of my demands.

My bills are all due
And the baby needs shoes
And Im busted
Cotton is down to
A quarter a pound
And Im busted
I got a cow that went dry
And a hen that wont lay
And a big stack of bills
That gets bigger each day
The county will haul
My belongins away
Im busted.

Condensed version of my life story. Johnny Cash says it well.

'Singing in the Rain' - Gene Kelly:
"I'm singing in the rain
Just singing in the rain
What a glorious feelin'
I'm happy again
I'm laughing at clouds
So dark up above
The sun's in my heart
And I'm ready for love
Let the stormy clouds chase
Everyone from the place
Come on with the rain
I've a smile on my face
I walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
Just singin',
Singin' in the rain"

'Keep Me In Your Heart' - Warren Zevon:
"Sometimes when you're doing simple things
around the house
Maybe you'll think of me and smile

You know I'm tied to you like the buttons on
your blouse
Keep me in your heart for awhile"

I found this in William Bradford's History Of The Plymouth Colony. Its not exactly a line, I hope it fits with this topic. Its about the first execution in the US.

A Very Sad Accident.

There befell a very sad accident of the like foul nature in this government, this very year, which I shall now relate. There was a youth whose name was Thomas Granger, he was servant to an honest man of Duxberry, being about 16 or 17 years of age. He was this year detected of buggery (and indicted for the same) with a mare, a cow, two goats, five sheep, two calves and a turkey.

A very sad spectacle it was; for first the mare then the cow, and the rest of the lesser cattle were killed before his face, according to the law, then he himself was executed.

William Bradford 1642.

Its a good thing Bradford isnt around now, there might be a lot of hangings, especially in the rural areas.

Glory, Bigguy...where do you find this stuff???

An iced tea brewed outside the gates of hell
By Satan himself, as the stories tell!

Til one day, Satan played the guitar
A ferocious note that rang near and far!
As a reaction to his tremendous sound
Iced tea shot up right from the ground!!!!

Iced tea, w/ lemon flavor (hey you)

--Tiger Clutch (the greatest and best band in the Madison, Wisconsin)

Ive had that book for years. I dont read it much, its in middle English, and I have trouble with modern English. But that part caught my eye, a bit of very important and educational history everyone should know about.

Crusher, I like that iced tea one. Kind of reminded me of Charlie Daniel's The Devil Went Down To Georga, one of my favorite songs.
