Oldtimer,

It is a GREAT album. Maybe my favorite Talking Heads album.

In regards to your song:

Well, I know what it is

But I don't know where it is (because I would have to come up with another song and I have to go work on my hardwood floors because I don't want to stay up late and the lady WOULD mind)

What do you know about the Tom Tom Club?

Another great Talking Heads tune, "Perfect World"!

Let's move out of the "Head" zone.

"Out here in the felds, I fight for my meals.

I get my back into my living.

I don't need to fight, to prove I'm right.

I don't need to be forgiven."

The Who --Baba O Riley "Teenage Wasteland"

How about this:

So you think youre lonely
Well my friend Im lonely too
I want to get back to my city by the bay

Hey TH fans, have you heard the live that came before Stop Making Sense--"The Name of This Band is Takling Heads" -- its a killer 2CDs and it all is great

Journey....When the lights go down in the city.

Here's one for ya....

Yes, I told you that the light goes up and down.
Don't you notice how the wheel goes 'round?
And you better pick yourself up from the ground
Before they bring the curtain down.

Name that tune.

Badge, is it?

Which is exactly what George Harrison asked Eric when they were writing it. Eric had sloppily written 'BRIDGE' at that juncture in the music. Looking at it upside down George mistakenly called it Badge and the name stuck.

Afterwards people made up all kinds of stories about why it was title that, including the Eric was PO'd at the Queen because a bunch of other rock stars had their MBE's at the time and he wanted to know 'where is my badge?'

do I win an award for trivia?

ok, here's your new challenge

Who is the man who arrives at the wall?

Making the shape of his questions at asking.

Thinking the sun will fall in the evening.

Will he remember the lesson of giving?

U2 "With or Without You"

Try this one

"Cold summer listening, Hot color melting the anger to stone.

I still remember the dream there, I still remember the time you said goodbye."

Long Distance Runaround--Yes

Michael would have gotten that in a second if he saw it before I did. Next:

Move forward was my friends only cry
In deeper to somewhere we could lie
And rest for the day with cold in the way

Name it

"However distant you may be,
There blows no wind but wafts your scent to me,
There sings no bird but calls your name to me.
Each memory that has left its trace with me
Lingers forever as a part of me."

I am Yours - Clapton. I figued it had to be a EC tune since you just saw him.

I'll post this easy gem (but only a few words), because I had never quite heard the last few words of verse until today...go figure. Pretty cool when a song you have listened to a million times gives you something new.

To the sound of old T-Rex and Who's Next

The Who

You Better You Bet

They stood at the stage door and begged for a scream,

The agents had paid for the black limousine

that waited outside in the rain.
