I called, he didn't get your email! Said he can't do belated wishes when closing the set either. :(

"card"? you shoulda emailed. But either way that sucks. '74 is a decent consolation prize.
-
Happy Birthday, Mshray!

is it
"i can bitch 'cause i'm better than you"
or
"i can bitch, girlfriend, better than you"
?
-
VHM to "bitchin'" Elton.
How folks at the time didn't read songs like this and "Yellow Brick Road" as gay is beyond me.
-
what the hell was that? nixon saying what....?? sounded like something from a sci-fi flick.
-

it's "cause I'm". Don't read a '90s expression into a '70s lyric. But see my related post.

i was thinking maybe she invented the expression. :)

i'm totally doing the gangsta lean in my cube. and in my hyundai.

Diggin' the scene wit' a gangsta lean: William DeVaughn left the music biz after this hit to become a street preacher; I think the JWs ended up with his money. For some reason I always felt like he might be a CIA operative dedicated to keeping people in their place.

yummmmm boooo berries! and Count Chocula........

When drugs are legal, do you think they'll be advertised like pharmaceuticals (a la Levitra, Viagra, et al)? Or like breakfast cereals?
I hope it's the latter. "Tina! It gives you pep!"
-
"honeycomb big, yeah, yeah, yeah,
it's not small, no, no, no!"
they re-used that jingle in the 80's. or someone did.
vhm to motherless children.

Speaking of bitchiness, Boy George has called Madonna a "Homophobic hypocrite" for practicing Kaballah. I didn't know this but Kaballah apparently considers homosexuality "a disease". Considering the hoo-hah over Donna Summer's long-ago alleged "Adam & Steve" comment, how it is nobody's called Madge on the carpet until now?
-
"honeycomb big, yeah, yeah, yeah,
it's not small, no, no, no!"

Yeah, thanks for reminding me. The Honeycomb "Yeah Yeah Yeah" ads in the '80s were horrifying, as if the Krofft Superstars had switched their drug of choice from LSD to PCP. Nightmare-worthy.

when i stop laughing about this line, i'll respond.

and speaking of jingles -- has anyone seen Darius "Hootie" Rucker on that Burger King commercial. Yikes.
WOS Clapton, "motherless children have a hard time when their mother is dead".

i'm glad i'm not the only one who remembers them. i can hear that big, gruff voice singing, "IT'S NOT SMALL!!!" that voice would kill you if you didn't eat honeycomb cereal.
i never ate it. maybe that's why.
-

Sandra Bernhard was busy doing other things on Madonna's carpet.
-

you're not supposed to listen to the words.
-
OMG! "Sugar Pie Guy" -- I was just thinking of this song the other day. Psychic Dave strikes again!
-
BOS to the Joneses! Sugar Pie Guy don't tell no lie ... and I think this is a breakout! I've only ever heard this song on Felix Hernandez's Rhythm Revue.
-

I sent him a card with an interesting aerial view of the GG Bridge, detailing my idea for a Don Pardo "looong version" sound clip. Wanna call him back & at least inquire if he's up for doing that sometime this week?
If not I still appreciate the original attempt.
-
HM to the least Harrison-esque of the Harrison ouevre. Maybe someday Dave'll play "Blow Away" or "Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth)."

Ba-Dumph! He'll be here all week, folks! (if his back holds out) :wink:

Because people really didn't talk about this stuff then. Remember they didn't know what Lou Reed meant when "She never lost her head even when she was giving head." Nor why Paul Simon had to wash his face after making love to Cecilia.
-

Dave has played "Give Me Love" (and "Sugar Pie Guy" too). But I'd request "This Song", "Crackerbox Palace" or "Ding Dong".
-
best line of set:
"and you stood out like a ruby in a black man's ear"
-
I bet RGMike gives BOS to this song about eagles. Is this Bonnie Raitt trying to sound like Joni Mitchell?
-

Heh, those are probably my three least favorite of Georgie's solo singles.
At least you didn't argue for "Gone Troppo."

EMAIL THE MAN! Say your bday was Sunday and ask for bday wishes now since "card" was lost in the mail.

VHM Raspberries commercial (feat WNEW-FM vet Dennis Elsas), but not to "Overnite Katrina".
-
Second time in a week hearing "Overnight Sensation (Hit Record)." Methinks a few people are getting excited about the upcoming Raspberries reunion tour dates. John Waite should be touring with them instead of sharing a relic bill with Dennis DeYoung and Toto.

Shaw nuff, but it's a beautiful song, no? It gets a BOS from me.

Bet I don't :P
But you're right this sounds like it could been on Hejira. Is it a John Prine song? She covered a few of his.

A lovely idea. Maybe cast Destiny's Child as Love Unlimited?
-
with Angela Bassett as Condi?
oh....oh. i'd never thought of that. i'm terribly disturbed now. i'm aroused, and i don't want to be!
speaking of condi, will someone fess up for writing
"who underestimated al qaeda
who lets a breeze blow 'tween her front teeth
who dropped the ball defending the free world
everyone knows it's condi"
i've written the rest of it, and i want to sing it at my shows. but i want to give credit. if no one fesses up, then i'll credit the entire 10@10 gang.
-

I just called him & he said he really hadn't seen it yet, but that in he'd try to work in a long song this week some time.

Fessing up, as requested. :shock:
Glad you liked it.

I don't care what the crankypants say! This is a beautiful, one-of-a-kind song. The rhythm guitare is a sublime example of R&B chording.
-
just so I can follow what you guys said, now that I'm home:
3/7/05 - Monday! Time in...1974!!!
Elton John - The Bitch is Back
Wet Willie - Keep on Smilin'
William Devaughn - Be Thankful For What You Got
Eric Clapton - Motherless Children
The Jones - Sugar Pie Guy
George Harrison - Dark Horse
Bonnie Raitt - That Song About the Midway
Raspberries - Overnight Sensation
Barry White - Your're the First, the Last, My Everything
Jackson Browne - For a Dancer
Before I read them, I can hear whining about Jackson Browne; we'll see. I think this is a great song.
-
WOS Clapton, "motherless children have a hard time when their mother is dead".
-
why Paul Simon had to wash his face after making love to Cecilia.
-

I was wrong!

you missed my post. would i ever pass up an opp to whine about jackson? i think not. unless the jackson in question is walt willey. in which case, i'd only whine in a very good way.

Bonnie Raitt - That Song About the Midway
Is that literally the title, or is this the song from that Richard Thompson tribute album?

well, I guess I did. I saw you guys talking about Barry White, and it looked like you just skipped the opportunity to dump on my guy! :lol:

BOS Dark Horse.
When this was playing today, my manager came into the room so I couldn't get to the Forum. Enjoyed it mucho and also the Joni, errr, uuhhhh Bonnie song. Still sounds like Joni.

Just finished my Saturday morning essay, and listened to the end of 10@10 replay, ending with "For a Dancer." It's hard to imagine why anyone can't relate to this song, about losing a close friend to the dance of death. It just goes to show, different strokes. It was really good to hear it today for me.
