Do you ever wake up with a song on your brain? And then you
just HAVE to go play it...Any body out there remember Lee Michaels ??

This song was on my brain this morning. I do not know why but, it was

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fymw5ie9Zd4

Been fourteen days
Since I don`t know when
I just saw her with my best friend
Do you know what I mean
Do you know, know what I mean

I just saw her yesterday
I just saw her, asked her to stay
Do you know what I mean
Lord, do you know what I mean

Her and Bobby were stepping out
Her and Bobby didn`t
Know I found out
Do you know what I mean
Do you know, know what I mean

So I asked her if she still cared
She didn`t hear me, she just stared
Do you know what I mean
Lord, do you know what I mean

And then she said, Lee
You haven`t loved me
In nearly four years
You haven`t noticed
That I held back my tears
And now you have
But it`s really too late

Better find yourself another girl
Better find another girl
Better find another place

She just left me yesterday
She just left me, had nothing to say
Do you know what I mean
Oh, do you know what I mean

She`s a dandy, yes, indeed
She`s a dandy, but now she`s free
Do you know what I mean
Lord, do you know what I mean

Been fourteen days
Since I don`t know when
I just saw her with my best friend
Do you know what I mean
Lord, do you know what I mean
Thank you for using Top40db.com.

I just saw her yesterday
I just saw her, learn how to stay
Do you know what I mean
Lord, do you know what I mean

Yeah, here comes it now

Hoooo, help me

5. Hey....I wanted to tell you about those.
I just finally got around to hooking all my stuff back up Friday afternoon (it was too hot to mess with that kind of thing all week...I get aggravated easily by electronics), and your CDs were the first thing I played. There was just a few things I didn't really get into, but a lot of that stuff was awesome to hear again. Some of that I haven't heard in 20 odd years since I was a dj at a roller skating rink, and man, talk about flashbacks! Having some of those songs again is awesome. I mean, you can't go wrong with Public Enemy, but friggin' Kurtis Blow? That was out of left field (or should I say it came from off the bench?). "They're playing basketbaaaalllll" has been stuck in my head since I played it. I loved that song! :)

I had a smile on my face through both CDs. I love compilations like that where it's music I liked but just never bought for myself because I'm into so many other things. It was an interesting mix of tunes. Breaking out those songs some nights will be a lot of fun.

And the ipod is working great too!

Thanks for everything. :hug:

7. I could test that "like everything" theory.
Right now I'm listening to a CD called "Epiphanic Vomiting Of Blood" by the band Gnaw Their Tongues that would make your ears bleed. :D

Be glad I don't make compilations myself. :evilgrin:

I just woke up about ten minutes ago and have a Molly Hatchet song on my mind (Gator Country) and I'll have to play it before the day ends. I hardly ever listen to them, and have no idea where the song came from to get into my head. :crazy:

18. well here are the lyrics - seems like it got removed by youtube, alas
Edited on Sun Jun-15-08 10:37 AM by tigereye

He's a tortured artist
Used to be in the Eagles
Now he whines
Like a wounded beagle
Poet of despair!
Pumped up with hot air!
He's serious, pretentious
And I just don't care
Don Henley must die!
Don't let him get back together
With Glenn Frey!
Don Henley must die!

Turn on the TV
And what did I see?
This bloated hairy thing
Winning a Grammy
Best Rock Vocalist?
Compared to what?
But your pseudo-serious
Crafty Satanic blot
Don Henley must die!
Put a sharp stick in his eye!
Don Henley must die!
Yea yea yea

Quit playin' that crap
You're out of the band

I'm only kidding
Can't you tell?
I love his sensitive music
Idiot poetry, swell
You and your kind
Are killing rock and roll
It's not because you are O L D
It's cause you ain't got no soul!
Don't be afraid of fun
Loosen up your ponytail!
Be wild, young, free and dumb
Get your head out of your tail
Don Henley must die!
Don't let him get back together
With Glenn Frey!

Don Henley must die!
Put him in the electric chair
Watch him fry!
Don Henley must die
Don Henley must die
No Eagles reunion
The same goes for you, Sting!

Mojo Nixon...



I stole this from a previous post by Retro...
