Theme music for DU posters
I think a theme music should play for every poster who starts a thread. You know, sort of like an announcement at a formal ball. Here are a few suggestions.

GoPsUx... "Some Like It Hot" by Robert Palmer

SouthpawKicker... "The Humpty Hump" by Digital Underground

taterguy... "Totally Nude" by David Byrne

reformedrepub... "Strangers in the Night" by Frank Sinatra


Any others?

1. My song would be " Lucky Star " by Madonna , just cause I feel lucky :)
Psssssssst RE: Some Like It Hot ... that's The Power Station with Robert Palmer as the lead singer of that supergroup. They made some great music. I think I have at least 5 versions of that song on my computer.

17. I was going to say the same thing about TPS!
I love The Power Station-but we've discussed that on many occasions.

Think I'll listen to some right now.

(And my song is usually "She's Lost Control"-Joy Division)

19. That's true... but I think a better song for GoPsUx would be...
"Legs" by ZZ Top.

2. KG - 'Vast Stretches of Broken Heart' by Jimmy Lafave
VAST STRETCHES OF BROKEN HEART
(Jimmy LaFave - Road Novel)

Vast stretched of broken heart
Misery in between
Miles and miles of sorrow
On this poor boy's dream
Every time I get a good thing
It never lasts too long
Every woman I meet
Well they always say I treat them wrong

You know I try to be good
You know I try to be kind
But they always accuse me
Of having other girls on my mind
Even if it were true
I want it understood
Just because a man looks doesn't mean he's up to no good


Vast stretches of broken heart
Misery in between
Miles and miles of sorrow
On this poor boy's dream
Every time I get a good thing
It never lasts too long
Every woman I meet
Well they always say I treat them wrong

I'm gonna keep on looking
I know there's a woman somewhere
Who's going to treat me right
Show a little love and care
Smooth out my rough edges
You know I'm not that bad
Take me home baby, I'll be the best dog you ever had

3. It changes, but at the momemt, my theme song would have to be...
..."Vuela" by Jarabe de Palo Here's the lyrics, if you speak Spanish.

Mucho tiempo llevo sin oir las olas romper en las rocas,
y eso que que estoy rodeado y aquí todos gritan, pero nadie
escucha.
Mucho tiempo llevo sin hablar un minuto con ellas,
y eso que estoy rodeado por mil y un sonidos que acechan
mi pensamiento.
(Estribillo 1)
Por eso ahora querría ser un pájaro;
salir volando, subir muy alto;
con la mirada siempre fija "p´alante";
sin importarme lo que halla debajo.
(Estribillo 2)
Para un momento, siéntate un rato y sin prisas
hablemos.
Tómate un trago, quizás haya algo que sepas y
no sepa yo
Hoy te invito, siéntate y cuéntame qué espara
ti el amor,
con tus ojos, con tus manos cuéntame un sueño
en el que salga yo.
Que sentido tiene contar cosas que casi nadie entiende,
pero he abierto los ojos y he visto que es mejor ser lobo
solitario.
Que sentido tiene vivir tan solo aunque tu estés aquí,
ya no merece la pena pasear a tu lado, mirarte y no ver
nada.
Por eso mueve,...mueve el culo y márchate.
Por eso vuela... deja todo y lárgate... muy lejos.

4. Who me? Totally nude?
That's a vicious lie. I've never been nude in my entire life. I demand an apology and a retraction.

12. Damn you
Now I have an intense craving to hear that Mojo Nixon song "Stuffing Martha's Muffin." I don't have a copy and I don't think the CD is still in print. Hell, I don't even know if it ever was released on CD.

10. For me either the Imperial Death March or some cartoon music would be nice
It's really not a lot to ask for.
