... in honor of Harry Potter. Dave never ceases to amaze -- all the great ideas for theme sets that he's passed on over the years, yet he gets excited about something like this.
Greg tried to persuade him to play Queen's "It's a Kind of Magic", and Dave said "We don't have it, and it wasn't a hit in the US". So... if I won Request-O-Rama and asked for it, I'd be out of luck? Whaaa??

Lessee...besides the previously mentioned ONJ and Cars songs...
Magic-Pilot
Pinball *wizard* (what other wizard songs are out there?)
I Put a Spell on You
Season of the Witch
This is starting to sound a lot like the Halloween set...

Indeed. I suppose Janet Jackson's "Black Cat" is too much to hope for...
maybe something from A Wizard, a True Star? :wink:

I'd be up for that, except I don't think there's a song by that name and I think it would go way over most Fogheads' heads.
On the other hand:
Lovin' Spoonful-Do You Believe In Magic?

the magic flute
blood sugar sex magic
magic in your eyes

And who could forget something from Roy Wood and Wizzard?

I have no idea what this Overture is--it sounds kinda like that cheesy Trans-Siberian Orchestra that comes around every December playing metalized Christmas music.
-
So... Dave isn't even a Harry Potter fan??? He knows "almost nothing about it"? WTF? He needs to spend less time watching "Judge Judy" and more time, y'know, LIVING IN THE WORLD.
"Magic man" -- duh!

What a great idea for a special 10@10 theme (today)!!
For those of us Harry Potter fans, this is a really big day.

NO SPOILERS, please! :wink:
-
America - You Can Do Magic?

I was hoping for Screamin' Jay, but we have to settle for CCR's "I Put a Spell on You". So VHM instead of BOS.

Well Peter makes up for it. I called in this morning & we swapped theories about what will happen.
Mine: Snape is good (remember, he's the Half-Blood Prince, so I think Voldemort is responsible for his muggle mother's death, which is why Dumbledore never doubted his motivation), Dumbledore isn't really dead, but Harry WILL die at the end.
Peter: Prof. Trewlawney is a goner, and Harry will call in a long overdue depb from Peter Pettigrew. He didn't fully say so, but he seemed to be leaning towards Harry dying also.

America - You Can Do Magic?
you know darn well
I'll cast its spell.

NO SPOILERS, please! :wink:
Definitely, none from me.
I'm actually dreading hearing details about the last book, before I get a chance to read it. (My daughter is first in line in our family ... starting at 12:01 am tonight). Luckily she reads really fast. :)
-
Btw, I just noticed that I crossed the 5,000-post line sometime earlier this morning. Yippeee--I'm a super scribe!

With the last book I got a false spoiler, namely that Hagrid was the main character doomed to die, so imagine my surprise at the end!
-
I don't care if it's a Katrina, I still love hearing Hocus Pocus (long version please)!!
-
No way this set gets better than the locus of "Hocus Pocus" by Focus. Even if it were covered by Krokus.
-

You've always been super as far as we're concerned, bub.
Yippee! "Hocus Pocus" -- how could we have forgotten? BOS!
-

I noticed that too. A few days ago you & Gaz & I were all near milestones we've since passed (5k, 6k & 7.5k respectively).
-

Oh well, maybe long version next time...

They're supposedly Dutch but I hear they're really from Ho-Ho-Kus.
-
Not sure it's overtly 'magical' enough, but I always love hearing "Hip mo tized".
-
Love hearing Hip-mo-tized but it's a little bit of a stretch for today's theme.
-

Hip-mo-JINX!!!
Dude, that is just too scary.
-
Oh-HO-HO...that's two!
-

Dude, that is just too scary.
Even scarier: I was *this close* to making it a trifecta jinx.
Oh-ho-ho, it's VHM to Pilot, dreaming of their pillow in the morning.

No shit. Out of how many years worth of jinxes? Unbelievable.
(maybe we've been hip mo tized & didn't know it?)
-
Oh-HO-HO...that's two!
So of course I hadta make up for it with an Oh-ho-ho-JINX.
-
Oh ho HO! it's BOS2 fer me.
BTW, I saw the new HP movie the other day, I've seen all 5, but I've only read the first book. So no more spoilers, guys.
After the 2nd movie I said "OK I've seen enuf", but then the 3rd one got raves, and indeed it was the best-directed of all (Alfonso Cuaron). So then i felt compelled to continue.
-
And that's three--and BOS3 while I'm at it. (The Spoonful tune, that is.)

The last one (no. 4) was my fave so far--it was nicely dark & spooky. Will probably see the new one this weekend.

I found #4 the weakest, cinematically -- too long, and kind of "middle film"-ish (a la LOTR:TTT). I like the fact that for #5 they took the longest of the books and made the shortest of the films.

I guess Irish Greg ran out and bought Dave a copy of "A Kind of Magic."

that's weird. and i can't believe it wasn't a hit in the us.
Irish Greg triumphs! Wonder if they had to go download it?
-
YAY! Greg prevails! BOS3 Queen!
(Dave told Greg he'd play the song if Greg went out and got a copy.)
-
is this tune #10? I'll take ELO over the Cars any day.
-
Strange Madge -- ick! (not to be confused with Large Marge).
-

Not sure--I lost count, as always. But I'm a little surprised we didn't hear the ONJ tune, too.

And a great choice for Harry Potter theme. What a fun set!!

Me too. I'd've preferred ONJ to the Steve Miller, actually. Well, maybe the bonus?
-
Tell ya what, this'll make for a pretty good Saturday morning replay (I don't have softball till the afternoon, so I can actually catch most of it).

Well, there's always Annalisa...

Where to now, St. Peter - CGSS? I have about half an hour before I have to slump into work.

Ho-leee crap! It really was them! I think I need to go out and buy a lotto ticket. I seem to be rather, er, dialed in today.
-

Slouching towards Time/Warner? I'll be doing CGSS after the bonus -- I'm curious what Annalisa comes up with.

speaking of corporate America, did anyone else see the premiere of Mad Men last nite? I really liked it -- that rare occasion where Tim Goodman raved about something and it actulally lived up to his hype.

"Magical Mystery" bonus.
-
Olbemann's show on MSNBC did a story about a newlywed couple who are spending the first hours of their homeymoon... waiting in line for the Potter book. After doing the story, Olbermann's producers played a snippet of Pilot's "Magic".

I totally missed the am AND pm sets. Had "real" work taking my time today. Finally just slowed down now. Hopefully I'll hear it tomorrow morning. I'll be waiting for UPS to bring my Amazon Harry Potter order sometime on Saturday. I can't imagine waiting in line at a store for it. I'm too old and tired.

I cannot even begin to tell you how annoying that constant substituting of "yeah" for "yay" is -- DAMN!
