http://youtube.com/watch?v=PsTaVfBDShs

and

when you say nothing at all - alison krauss
http://youtube.com/watch?v=GT0QFM78fpo

http://youtube.com/watch?v=sGryBoWRFUc

for spk, my friend:
we go together - less than jake
http://youtube.com/watch?v=W7YTtFFJgPc

[SPKrazy]

1. *snort*

:rofl:

:hi:

:hug:
Okay for you Kagehime, just because it is a great song

http://youtube.com/watch?v=7i2AFRX-z0I
Across the great divide

I've been walkin' in my sleep
Countin' troubles 'stead of countin' sheep
Where the years went I can't say
I just turned around and they've gone away

I've been siftin' through the layers
Of dusty books and faded papers
They tell a story I used to know
And it was one that happened so long ago

Chorus:
It's gone away in yesterday
Now I find myself on the moutainside
Where the rivers change direction
Across the Great Divide

Now, I hear the owl a-callin'
Softly as the night was fallin'
With a question and I replied
But he's gone across the borderline

Chorus

The finest hour that I have seen
Is the one that comes between
The edge of night and the break of day
It's when the darkness rolls away

[fizzgig]

3. whatchoo laughing about?

that is a nice song :)

:hug:

[SPKrazy]

4. i dunno, it just cracks me up

:hug:

[SPKrazy]

2. Okay a dedication to All DU'ers And All Americans

We gotta stop this fucking war!

http://youtube.com/watch?v=MShJ8h7cEbE

"Zombie"

Another head hangs lowly,
Child is slowly taken.
And the violence caused such silence,
Who are we mistaken?

But you see, it's not me, it's not my family.
In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...

In your head, in your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie,
Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head,
In your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, dou, dou, dou, dou, dou...

Another mother's breakin',
Heart is taking over.
When the vi'lence causes silence,
We must be mistaken.

It's the same old theme since nineteen-sixteen.
In your head, in your head they're still fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are dying...

In your head, in your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie,
Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head,
In your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, hey, oh, ya, ya-a...

5. For all The monk fans, sorry jazz fans it's not Thelonious

[Danger Mouse]

6. Thank you, love. =) I have a few for you, my beloved...

'True Love Waits' by Radiohead...one of the sweetest love songs I've ever heard...sorry about the jumpy camera in the vid...but it's one of the songs I most closely associate with you :blush:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=2A7lRFn8iFA&mode=related&search=

Obnoxiously cute song 'Humpty Dumpty Love Song' by Travis, but I adore it, and you. The line 'All I need is you, I just need you' really speaks to me :D
http://youtube.com/watch?v=VgdVAbIvFYc

'Maybe Sparrow' by Neko Case...okay, the vid is pretty sad, but I LOVE this woman's singing voice. I love animated videos, too, and I love the style this one uses. Neko has a lot of great songs with The New Pornographers as well.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=BOa5BujYYPQ

oh, and for Ariana Celeste, with whom I was discussing the growing impersonal nature of our society...
http://youtube.com/watch?v=L7ywjGJxj-4&mode=user&search=
It's Radiohead's 'Street Spirt (Fade Out)'
:D
Anyway, that's all for now, loves.

Love you, Sara. :hug:

[Ariana Celeste]

7. woot!

Now I have to listen to the whole album! :hug:

[fizzgig]

8. thank you, my sweetest

:hug:

[Ariana Celeste]

9. For Oedi:

Therion 'Invocation of Naamah'

because you and I just rock like that

[SPKrazy]

10. To myself...

under the bridge downtown...

http://youtube.com/watch?v=tWHkluThDXQ
Under The Bridge

Sometimes I feel
Like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel
Like my only friend
Is the city I live in
The city of angels
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I drive on her streets
'Cause she's my companion
I walk through her hills
'Cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds
And she kisses me windy
I never worry
Now that is a lie

I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way

It's hard to believe
That there's nobody out there
It's hard to believe
That I'm all alone
At least I have her love
The city she loves me
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all that way

Under the bridge downtown
Is where I drew some blood
Under the bridge downtown
I could not get enough
Under the bridge downtown
Forgot about my love
Under the bridge downtown
I gave my life away

[TOhioLiberal]

11. Here's one...

...I'm dedicating to Southpawkicker:
(some cheezy 70's tune but what the hey)

Thank You For Being A Friend--Andrew Gold
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OppUr-QWPtc

Thank you for being a friend
Traveled down the road and back again
your heart is true you're a pal and a confidant

I'm not ashamed to say
I hope it always will stay this way
My hat is off, won't you stand up and take a bow

And if you threw a party
Invited everyone you knew
You would see, the biggest gift would be from me
and the card attached would say,
Thank you for being a friend

Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for being a friend

If it's a car you lack
I'd surely buy you a cadillac
Whatever you need, anytime of the day or night

I'm not ashamed to say
I hope it always will stay this way
My hat is off, won't you stand up and take a bow

And when we both get older
With walking canes and hair of gray
Have no fear, even though it's hard to hear
I will stand real close and say,
Thank you for being a friend

(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Let me tell you bout a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend

And when we die, and float away
I'll see you there, and once again
Thank you for being a

Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
(I want to thank you)
Thank you for being a friend
Whoa, tell you about a friend
(Thank you right now, for being a friend)
Thank you for being a friend
(I wanna tell you right now, and tell you again)
Thank you for being a friend
(I wanna thank you, thank you, for being a friend)
Thank you for being a friend

You've got A Friend In Me (Monsters INC)

You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
When the road looks rough ahead
And you're miles and miles
From your nice warm bed
Just remember what your old pal said
Boy, you've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
You've got troubles, well I've got 'em too
There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you
We stick together and we see it through
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me

Some other folks might be
A little bit smarter than I am
Bigger and stronger too
Maybe
But none of them will ever love you the way I do
It's me and you
And as the years go by
Boys, our friendship will never die
You're gonna see
It's our destiny
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me

13. i love that song

i saw randy newman earlier this year and he played this song. i made me very happy :D

:pals:

[TOhioLiberal]

14. Seems like...

...I've heard that song in conjunction with Toy Story; but the video had scenes from Monsters INC. :crazy:

[fizzgig]

16. i remember the same thing

:shrug:

maybe we're both :crazy:

[ghostsofgiants]

17. No, it was definitely from Toy Story.

At least originally. I've never seen monsters Inc.

[fizzgig]

18. ok

good to know i'm not just making shit up again :D

[AlCzervik]

20. it is most assuredly from Toy story, having sat through that movie about

100 billion times i know it is. I also know all the songs and dialog from Muppet's treasure island but i won't bore you with that.

[SPKrazy]

21. agreed it is Toy Story

and ditto on the sitting through it, but not the muppet's treasure island, plenty of other ones

[SPKrazy]

19. Here's one for my friend

crim son - let's go sail away my friend!


http://youtube.com/watch?v=fAAHuZ3zhjo
Come Sail Away- Styx

Im sailing away, set an open course for the virgin sea
Ive got to be free, free to face the life thats ahead of me
On board, Im the captain, so climb aboard
Well search for tomorrow on every shore
And Ill try, oh lord, Ill try to carry on

I look to the sea, reflections in the waves spark my memory
Some happy, some sad
I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
We live happily forever, so the story goes
But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold
But well try best that we can to carry on

A gathering of angels appeared above my head
They sang to me this song of hope, and this is what they said
They said come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me

I thought that they were angels, but to my surprise
They climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies
Singing come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me

[crim son]

33. Oh, let's.

35. For crim son ~~ One of my Ya Ya Sisters

You've Got A Friend

Special YouTube
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6r1175w_lM

When you're down and troubled
And you need some loving care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a friend

If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there

Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend
When people can be so cold
They'll hurt you, and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
Oh, but don't you let them

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a friend

[crim son]
