    “Here come old flattop
    He come groovin' up slowly
    He got joo-joo eyeball
    He one holy roller
    He got hair down to his knees
    Got to be a joker
    He just do what he please

    He wear no shoeshine
    He got toe jam football
    He got monkey finger
    He shoot Coca Cola
    He say I know you, you know me
    One thing I can tell you is
    You got to be free

    Come together, right now
    Over me

    He bag production
    He got walrus gumboot
    He got Ono sideboards
    He one spinal cracker
    He got feet down below his knees
    Hold you in his armchair
    You can feel his disease

    Come together, right now
    Over me

    He roller coaster
    He got early warning
    He got muddy water
    He one mojo filter
    He say one and one and one is three
    Got to be good looking
    'Cause he's so hard to see

    Come together, right now
    Over me

    Come together, yeah

    Come together, yeah

    “I hear the drums echoing tonight
    But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
    She's coming in the 12:30 flight
    The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation

    I stopped an old man along the way
    Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
    He turned to me as if to say
    "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you!"

    It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
    There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
    I bless the rains down in Africa
    Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

    The wild dogs cry out in the night
    As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
    I know that I must do what's right
    Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti

    I seek to cure what's deep inside
    Frightened of this thing that I've become

    It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
    There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
    I bless the rains down in Africa
    Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

    Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
    It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
    There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
    I bless the rains down in Africa, I bless the rains down in Africa
    I bless the rains down in Africa, I bless the rains down in Africa
    I bless the rains down in Africa
    Gonna take some time to do the things we never had.”

    Phil Fearson: What do I do? 1984: Lyrics and Video

    For MG



    “What do I do if I wanna get through to you?
    No matter how I try you always keep me waitin'
    What do I do if I wanna get through to you?
    No matter how I try you always keep me waitin'
    Remember me, I'm the one you danced with
    Remember how we danced so tight I could not let you go
    I know it's been a long time, but I'm callin'
    'Cause I've got to be with you (First you keep me waitin')
    (Won't you let me know?) I've got to be with you
    (Won't you let me know?)
    I never told you that I loved you
    'Cause I could never take for granted you would feel the same
    Now I can't take the waiting any longer
    I just got to let you know (First you keep me waitin')
    (Won't you let me know?) Yes, I got to let you know
    (Won't you let me know?)
    What do I do if I wanna get through to you?
    No matter how I try you always keep me waitin'
    What do I do if I wanna get through to you?
    No matter how I try you always keep me waitin'
    I bet you've come to your conclusion
    But now you're gonna take a little longer to recline
    Eventhough you know just what you'll say
    I guess that's just the way girls play (First you keep me waitin')
    (Won't you let me know?) Yeah, that's just the way you play
    (Won't you let me know?)
    What do I do if I wanna get through to you?
    No matter how I try you always keep me waitin'
    What do I do if I wanna get through to you?
    No matter how I try you always keep me waitin'
    I would really like to believe that
    If you want to spend some time with me
    You may decide you love me too
    Well, it must be worth the waiting
    Or I would not be sitting here alone all night long
    What do I do if I wanna get through to you?
    No matter how I try you always keep me waitin'
    What do I do if I wanna get through to you?
    No matter how I try you always keep me waitin'
    What do I do if I wanna get through to you?
    No matter how I try, I'm always waiting for you
    What do I do if I wanna get through to you?
    No matter how I try, oh, why do I just keep on sitting here?
    What do I do if I wanna get through to you?
    Oh, yeah.”

    “If everybody had an ocean
    Across the U.S.A.
    Then everybody'd be surfin'
    Like California
    You'd seem 'em wearing their baggies
    Huarachi sandals too
    A bushy bushy blond hairdo
    Surfin' U.S.A.

    You'd catch 'em surfin' at Del Mar
    Ventura County line
    Santa Cruz and Trestle
    Australia's Narabine
    All over Manhattan
    And down Doheny Way

    Everybody's gone surfin'
    Surfin' U.S.A.

    We'll all be planning out a route
    We're gonna take real soon
    We're waxing down our surfboards
    We can't wait for June
    We'll all be gone for the summer
    We're on surfari to stay
    Tell the teacher we're surfin'
    Surfin' U.S.A.

    Haggerty's and Swami's
    Pacific Palisades
    San Onofre and Sunset
    Redondo Beach L.A.
    All over La Jolla
    At Waimea Bay

    Everybody's gone surfin'
    Surfin' U.S.A.

    Everybody's gone surfin'
    Surfin' U.S.A.

    Everybody's gone surfin'
    Surfin' U.S.A.”

    From town to town
    Get around round round I get around
    I'm a real cool head
    Get around round round I get around
    I'm makin' real good bread

    I'm gettin' bugged driving up and down the same old strip
    I gotta finda new place where the kids are hip

    My buddies and me are getting real well known
    Yeah, the bad guys know us and they leave us alone

    None of the guys go steady cause it wouldn't be right
    To leave their best girl home now on Saturday night

    I get around
    Get around round round I get around
    From town to town
    Get around round round I get around
    I'm a real cool head

    John Lennon: Watching the wheels:1981[posthumous]: Lyrics and Video

    For “Falstaff,” our respective destinies draw near….







    “People say I'm crazy
    Doing what I'm doing
    Well, they give me all kinds of warnings
    To save me from ruin


    When I say that I'm okay
    Well, they look at me kinda strange
    Surely you're not happy now
    You no longer play the game

    People say I'm lazy
    Dreaming my life away
    Well, they give me all kinds of advice
    Designed to enlighten me

    Well I tell them that I'm doing fine
    Watching shadows on the wall
    Don't you miss the big time, boy?
    You're no longer on the ball

    I'm just sitting here
    Watching the wheels go round and round
    I really love to watch them roll

    No longer riding on the merry-go-round
    I just had to let it go

    Ah, people asking questions
    Lost in confusion
    Well, I tell them, there's no problem
    Only solutions

    Well, they shake their heads
    And they look at me as if I've lost my mind
    I tell them, there's no hurry
    I, I'm just sitting here doing time

    I'm just sitting here
    Watching the wheels go round and round
    I really love to watch them roll

    No longer riding on the merry-go-round
    I just had to let it go
    I just had to let it go
    I just had to let it go.”

    the words are still relevant today...

    JOE SOUTH "Games People Play"

    Oh the games people play now
    Every night and every day now
    Never meaning what they say now
    Never saying what they mean
    And they wile away the hours
    In their ivory towers
    Till they're covered up with flowers
    In the back of a black limousine
    [Chorus:]
    La-da da da da da da da
    La-da da da da da de
    Talking 'bout you and me
    And the games people play
    Oh we make one another cry
    Break a heart then we say goodbye
    Cross our hearts and we hope to die
    That the other was to blame
    Neither one will give in
    So we gaze at our eight by ten
    Thinking 'bout the things that might have been
    It's a dirty rotten shame
    [Chorus]
    People walking up to you
    Singing glory hallelulia
    And they're tryin to sock it to you
    In the name of the Lord
    They're gonna teach you how to meditate
    Read your horoscope, cheat your faith
    And further more to hell with hate
    Come on and get on board
    [Chorus]
    Look around tell me what you see
    What's happening to you and me
    God grant me the serenity
    To remember who I am
    Cause you've given up your sanity
    For your pride and your vanity
    Turns you sad on humanity
    And you don't give a da da da da da

    Excellence is not a skill; its an attitude...

    So, if old school music is cool as the thread title suggests, what's the thoughts on new school music.

    Here's some to listen to whilst you're mulling over your thoughts;

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

    "The Fox" by Ylvis

    Dog goes woof, cat goes meow.
    Bird goes tweet, and mouse goes squeak.
    Cow goes moo. Frog goes croak, and the elephant goes toot.
    Ducks say quack and fish go blub, and the seal goes OW OW OW.
    But there's one sound that no one knows...
    WHAT DOES THE FOX SAY?

    Ring-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!
    Gering-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!
    Gering-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!
    WHAT THE FOX SAY?
    Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow!
    Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow!
    Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow!
    WHAT THE FOX SAY?
    Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho!
    Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho!
    Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho!
    WHAT THE FOX SAY?
    Joff-tchoff-tchoff-tchoffo-tchoffo-tchoff!
    Joff-tchoff-tchoff-tchoffo-tchoffo-tchoff!
    Joff-tchoff-tchoff-tchoffo-tchoffo-tchoff!
    WHAT THE FOX SAY?

    Big blue eyes, pointy nose, chasing mice, and digging holes.
    Tiny paws, up the hill, suddenly you're standing still.
    Your fur is red, so beautiful, like an angel in disguise.
    But if you meet a friendly horse, will you communicate by mo-o-o-o-orse, mo-o-o-o-orse, mo-o-o-o-orse?
    How will you speak to that h-o-o-orse, h-o-o-orse, h-o-o-orse?
    WHAT DOES THE FOX SAY?!

    Jacha-chacha-chacha-chow!
    Jacha-chacha-chacha-chow!
    Jacha-chacha-chacha-chow!
    WHAT THE FOX SAY?
    Fraka-kaka-kaka-kaka-kow!
    Fraka-kaka-kaka-kaka-kow!
    Fraka-kaka-kaka-kaka-kow!
    WHAT THE FOX SAY?
    A-hee-ahee ha-hee!
    A-hee-ahee ha-hee!
    A-hee-ahee ha-hee!
    WHAT THE FOX SAY?
    A-oo-oo-oo-ooo!
    Woo-oo-oo-ooo!
    WHAT DOES THE FOX SAY?!

    The secret of the fox, ancient mystery.
    Somewhere deep in the woods, I know you're hiding.
    What is your sound? Will we ever know?
    Will always be a mystery what do you say?

    You're my guardian angel hiding in the woods.
    What is your sound? (A-bubu-duh-bubu-dwee-dum a-bubu-duh-bubu-dwee-dum)
    Will we ever know? (A-bubu-duh-bubu-dwee-dum)
    I want to, I want to, I want to know! (A-bubu-duh-bubu-dwee-dum)
    (Bay-buh-day bum-bum bay-dum)

    I haven't been on this thread for a while and I just had a skim back at what's been posted. I see you sneaky buggers had a Lennon/McCartney revival in my absence.

    I was thinking which Beatles songs I would have chosen. I was never a big Beatles fan as such in my youth but many of their tracks were very relevant to me in many ways, I lost my virginity to a Beatles track and I spent a month in hospital recovering from a motorcycle accident with nothing to listen to except a C90 cassette tap of mixed Beatles tracks. Anyway I guess the Beatles track that actually had the biggest impact on my life isactually really a McCartney track called Blackbird. This track was possibly the reason I never became all I could have been, I heard it and I was immediately hooked by it, it was the sole reason I took up learning classical guitar and if I include all the time that the guitar playing cost me it literally cost me years of my life.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXYxx96d2j8

    "Blackbird"

    Blackbird singing in the dead of night
    Take these broken wings and learn to fly
    All your life
    You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

    Blackbird singing in the dead of night
    Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
    All your life
    You were only waiting for this moment to be free.

    Blackbird fly Blackbird fly
    Into the light of the dark black night.

    Blackbird fly Blackbird fly
    Into the light of the dark black night.

    Blackbird singing in the dead of night
    Take these broken wings and learn to fly
    All your life
    You were only waiting for this moment to arise
    You were only waiting for this moment to arise
    You were only waiting for this moment to arise.
