Round Round out of my mind
you just keep seeing things
I know your blind
a million bright colors
explode in your head
today your just high
tommorow your dead
round round...round round...round

cant remember name just an old anti-drug song but it was alright. Anyone remember it?
-------------------------------------------
D.O.A

Bloodrock 2

Laying here looking at the ceiling
Someone lays a sheet across my chest
Something warm is flowing down my fingers
Pain is flowing all through my back

I try to move my arms and there's no feeling
And when I look I see there's nothing there
The face beside me stopped it totally bleeding
The girl I knew has such a distant stare

I remember
We were flying along and hit something in the air
I remember
We were flying along and hit something in the air

Then I looked straight at the attendant
His face is pale as it can be
He bends and whispers something softly
He says there's no chance for me

I remember
We were flying along and hit something in the air
I remember
We were flying along and hit something in the air

Life is flowing out my body
Pain is flowing out with my blood
The sheets are red and moist where I'm lying
God in Heaven, teach me how to die

I remember
We were flying along and hit something in the air
I remember
We were flying along and hit something in the air

Creepy song but it has impact makes you think. any one remember it?

Greatful Dead RULE! My father has been to over 381 Dead concerts (Bootlegged all of em

). I found it odd that nobody mentioned Lynrd Skynrd under American bands. Sure they're SLIGHTLY politically incorrect, but who cares?

Big wheels keep on turning,
carry me home to see my kin
singing songs about the southland.
I miss ole bamy once again and I think it's a sin.
Well, I heard Mister Young sing about her.
Well, I heard ole Neil put her down.
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
a southern man don't need him around anyhow.
Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue.
Sweet home Alabama, Lord, I'm coming home to you.
In Birmingham they love the Gov'nor.
Now we all did what we could do.
Now Watergate does not bother me.
Does your conscience bother you, tell the truth.
Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue.
Sweet home Alabama, Lord, I'm coming home to you.
Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
and they ve been known to pick a song or two.
Lord, they get me off so much,
they pick me up when I'm feeling blue, now how about you.
Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue.
Sweet home Alabama, Lord, I'm coming home to you.
Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue.
Sweet home Alabama, Lord, I'm coming home to you.

Hmmm, time to take the post slightly off topic.

How about a band that I will never listen to, its called Blue. Ok, I have never heard of them in the first place, but then and again since I am over 30 I seem to be very out of touch with current music anyhow. Whuzzat? JD is a old man? You be nice Sonny or I will hit you with my walker!!!

Now for the blurb that you might want to read

Who give a **** about New York when whales and elephants are dying?
From: The Sun
By: Dominic Mohan

LEE RYAN from Blue has made an astonishing outburst saying the attacks on New York have been “blown out of proportion.”

The stupid boy — there is no other expression for him — told The Sun that instead of feeling sorry for New Yorkers we should be worrying about WHALES and ELEPHANTS.

As his horrified mates from Britain’s top boy band tried to shut him up, Lee insisted on speaking out.

The 18-year-old, who actually WITNESSED the September 11 tragedy, said during a visit to The Sun’s HQ: “Who gives a f about New York when elephants are being killed?

“Animals need saving and that’s more important. This New York thing is being blown out of proportion ... I’m not afraid to say this, it has to be said and that’s why I’m the outspoken one from the band.”

The group’s bosses at Virgin were furious about Lee’s gaffe.

Lee and the rest of Blue — Duncan James, Antony Costa and Simon Webbe — were filming a video in New York at the time of the World Trade Center atrocities.

His outburst came as fellow band members recalled their horror at the tragedy.

Blue got to No1 with Too Close last month. Their new single, If You Come Back, is out on November 12.

They were doing a webchat for The Sun when he made his shocking remarks. Here is part of the transcript. For the full interview click the link at the top of the page.

We started by asking Blue what they saw in New York.

ANTONY: We saw the second plane crash into the tower and then the building crumble.

THE SUN: You witnessed all that? That must have been scary.

SIMON: Of course it was scary, it would be. It’s the biggest day of terrorism in history.

LEE: What about whales? (Everyone paused and looked at him, confused)

LEE: They are ignoring animals that are more important. Animals need saving and that’s more important. This New York thing is being blown out of proportion

SIMON: Shut up, Lee

THE SUN: That’s a bit out of order, don’t you think?

LEE: Who gives a f about New York when elephants are being killed?

DUNCAN: Shut up

LEE: I’m not afraid to say this, it has to be said and that’s why I’m the outspoken one from the band.”

Later it dawned on Lee how stupid his comments had been and he feared losing his job.

A pal said: “He feels awful and is very worried.”

But after a severe carpeting by Virgin, Lee last night apologised and pledged to donate his share of profits from If You Come Back to our Twin Towers Fund.

He said: “I am deeply sorry for what I have said and apologise unreservedly to everyone affected by the tragedy of September 11.

“I was trying to express my concerns for other issues close to my heart but I realise now I did so in a very foolish and offensive way.

“I will donate my royalties from our next single to the Twin Towers Fund.

I hope this small gesture will go some way to showing that I really am very sorry.”

Lee may have apologised but he is 18, old enough to vote and to know better. What do you think? Should he be sacked? Ring my hotline on the left to cast your vote.

Frag... Jaco is the best Jazz player ever. But victor is a more all around Bass player. Jaco was more of a pioneer like James Jamerson and Bootsy. Live Art or one of his solo albums best shows his musicianship...

If you dont go buy the CD try to find it online... Its worth the effort...trust me.

Yeah, I hate when I get a song stuck in my head. Especially this one:

"Meow meow, meow meow, meow meow, meow meow, <em> meow meow, meow moew </em> meow meow, meow meow..."

Well, you know the rest. I just mentioned this song to my wife recently and she got super pissed off at me cause now SHE's got it stuck in her head. Cured me though.
