I'm starting to believe that thebes and Sputnik are one in the same.....could there be 2 fans of Leonard Cohen left on the planet? LOL -- just joshing y'all!!

Yes my name is actually Carole -- but with an "e" at the end so as not to be confused with a Christmas song...LOL!! []

My pick of the week -- one of my Christmas gifts <because I was very good this year []> Another great volume of Soul/R&B from the soundtrack "The Commitments". 7 of the 11 tracks are previously unreleased so, if you have the original cd -- this will finish the collection wonderfully!

I wasn't excited about the movie itself - it wasn't as good as I thought it would be....the only thing that saved it for me was the penguins. The Penguin Christmas was a hoot -- they should have shelved the movie and let the feature-ette at the end be released on it's own. Forget the movie - go to the Penguins instead

Womanthing, you must be quite a unique individual if songs like Tush, Gun Love, and Tube Snake Boogie get you into the Holiday spirit. [:^)] [] This week, a friend of mine suggested that I pick up Honky Chateau by Elton John (1972). Pop music never really did much for me but I have to admit that I really liked this. There is some truly fine musicianship on this album that I never really associated with Elton John. I think it's been remastered and it does sound nice. Contains "Rocket Man" and "Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters". "Unique" is one words that has been used to describe my personality .... It took 3 husbands to finally find one who enjoys being associated with someone like me! Actually Viva Las Vegas, Cheap Sunglasses, Sharp Dressed Man and Legs are what I enjoy most about this cd. And you know, anyone can wrap gifts & bake to regular Christmas music - it takes someone different to do these things differently. Regarding your pick - I still love Honky Cat probably best of anything other than Yellow Brick Road that Elton John released. Good pick!

Happy Whatever Y'all celebrate this time of year! I'm in a great mood - shopping, wrapping, making goodies all that good stuff Grabbed an oldie but goodie out of the cupboard tonight and thought I'd share it as my pick of the week. Really gets me into the Holiday spirit!! Have a great one! ZZ Top - Greatest Hits - Original Release Date: April 14, 1992/ ROCK 1. Gimme All Your Lovin' 2. Sharp Dressed Man 3. Rough Boy 4. Tush 5. My Head's In Mississippi 6. Pearl Necklace 7. I'm Bad, I'm Nationwide 8. Viva Las Vegas 9. Doubleback 10. Gun Love 11. Got Me Under Pressure 12. Give It Up 13. Cheap Sunglasses 14. Sleeping Bag 15. Planet Of Women 16. La Grange 17. Tube Snake Boogie 18. Legs

Happy After Thanksgiving! Glad it's over & the leftovers are finally gone! If Sputnik is still looking for romantic music this might be one to add to your list.....there are women who find Bob Seger's voice apealing....There are a couple songs on here that bring back good memories for this once young lady. How about Bob Seger/Greatest Hits (Rock/pop) CD - 1994 1. Roll Me Away 2. Night Moves 3. Turn The Page 4. You'll Accomp'ny Me 5. Hollywood Nights 6. Still The Same 7. Old Time Rock & Roll 8. We've Got Tonight 9. Against The Wind 10. Mainstreet 11. The Fire Inside 12. Like A Rock 13. C'est La Vie - (previously unreleased) 14. In Your Time - (previously unreleased)

My favorite song by OMD was "Jackie Blue" -- I bet I played that more than any other song I ever had......it was one of those that you never got tired of!! Great pick!!

By defination the word chicane means: To resort to tricks or subterfuges/ To trick; deceive.

I waited for a few days with no reply to my answer (I posted Wed, Nov 09 2005, 5:39 PM) and didn't really know if that was correct or not - didn't mean to "wreck the whole game.Angry [:@]" as toddvj posted ~ and haven't been galavanting on other threads either as theryugobuddy added. Little hard to do much of anything with the flu - so I'll stick to other threads from now on. I appologize to everyone here.

Great pick thebes!! Ok still strolling down memory lane this week..... Firefall - 70's Country/Rock - self-titled lp vinyl album I still enjoy listening to this group - hope someone else remembers them Side 1 1. It Doesn't Matter 2. Love Isn't All 3.

begging is good Sputnik -- it works best if you really get your puppy dog eyes on & beg for mercy (or whatever else you're looking for!!) lol ...... good luck

Eric Clapton - It's In The Way That You Use It

ok - from a woman's perogative.....Barry White, Marvin Gaye, Jazz -- really great picks guys - these work for me!! Bolero - a real No-No since that is so obvious what you are trying to do and you are correct sir, no decent woman would fall for that crap! Since lyrics can sometimes muck up a good song how about something instrumental .... that way you don't have to worry that the lady might actually pick up on some hidden meaning! I appologize AGAIN Sput for insulting you and Leonard Cohen...but good Lord man, the moment has passed once she starts crying!! Next we need to work on Grog.....YMCA, Brickhouse & Superfly!!! If I wasn't laughing so hard I might cry! Please don't use holiday music to set the mood -- when you aren't together anymore the holidays will be grim reminder of you!! New Age you might want to try: Eternity: A Romantic Collection Quiet Days - Various Artists Tranquility - (Reflections of Love is beautiful) Also, don't forget to set the mood....romance isn't just music!!! A nice dinner, candles, something to sip on.......ahhhh wonderful!

Jump Street 4. What Do You Want The Girl To Do 5. Harbor Lights Side 2 1. Lowdown 2. It's Over 3. Love Me Tomorrow 4. Lido Shuffle 5. We're All Alone I have danced my little heart out to this album -- memories -- WOW!! 1976 -- well I was out of high school and in college by that time!

I've been housecleaning (yea wonder woman here!) anyhoo.....I dug out he old vinyl and listened to a few albums this afternoon....white noise and all - as I see it I made those scratches and every single one of them is a memory!

Barstow Blue Eyes Side 2 1. 1.99 Days 2. Academy Award 3. Take It Easy 4. Flying Home What can I say - I remember staring at the inside of this album sleeve for HOURS - I swear there eyes moved to where ever I was in the room. Oh my!!!!! Good Lawd - this was produced & released in 1972!!! I was still a YOUNG teenager at the time! My album cover has many loving marks on it (plus my name written in black magic marker on the front)...here is a picture of them - not the album cover but one that I prefer to look at!!

Hope everyone survived Halloween....we didn't have any mosters at the door - hubby was sick, step-daughter gone so it was left to me...and I voted to "just say NO" to Halloween! My pick for the week -- Billboard Hot Soul Hits of 1974 / self explanatory (it's Soul!!) / cd / great bunch of songs when you want to go slumming back to your youth! 1. TSOP (The Sound Of Philadelphia) - The Three Degrees/MFSB 2. Can't Get Enough Of Your Love, Babe - Barry White (of course it has Barry White!!) 3. Jungle Boogie - Kool & The Gang 4.

Ok - 1 more from me before the week ends. I'm sitting here listening to Adam Makowicz - "The Name is Makowicz (Ma-Ko-Vitch) / Jazz 1. "A" Flat Elegy (For Earl Hines) 2. You Do Something To Me 3. Dirty Blue 4. Moondust 5. Tough Chic 6. Pearl Grey 7. Bop Do Combo 8. Past Tense This is good background music - dinner party, chatting or relaxing. Takes the tension out of the day and makes you feel like you are floating. Have a great weekend!!

Mean and nasty is not absolutely necessary -- but you are right about Adam Sandler!! [] Do you really think if the original name of the thread had been "movies I really-sort of-kinda don't like" many people would have responded? LOL

Ok - I'll agree with you on these ALL except Bruce Willis, who I just like to look at!! But that is a personal opinion and my husband knows about that!! HA -- I would like to add a few more names to the list 1. The Rock -- oh pleeeeeeze - snore! He is the 2000 edition of Fabio 2. Any Muppet movies 3. Any "reunion" movies - I don't care what the Brady Bunch, Maybury RFD, the Cosby's - don't care where they are or what they are doing....... 4. Any Star Trek movies (sorry I know y'all like them but they don't do a thing for me) 5. Anything with alien creatures in it - I have a teenager - I've seen worse than these movies can come up with when it comes to frightening people and situations. 6. How about the movie "Death to Smoochie" - that's another big fat zero in my world 7. Nothing with Robin Williams, Steve Martin, any Saturday Night Live Alum (save the Blues Brothers-but that's more the music than the acting)...... I could go on - but I think I've made my point! By the way, do Steven Segal, Richard Benjamin & Richard Dreyfuss really think they are actors??????? Thank heavens we don't have to endure "Bridgett Loves Bernie" anymore!
