    I remember this song very clearly. It is very powerful spend some time and take it all in.



    THE CRANBERRIES "Zombie"

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

    My he 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..
    .
    peace is a state of mind

      Love is all around: Wet, Wet , Wet:1994

      This is a phenomenal song...

      "Memory, the ability to make the past the present and the present the past!"


      94.7 would play this song a lot in 1995 and 1995..


      “I feel it in my fingers
      I feel it in my toes
      Love is all around me
      And so the feeling grows
      It's written on the wind
      It's everywhere I go, oh yes it is
      So if you really love me
      Come on and let it show
      You know I love you, I always will
      My mind's made up by the
      Way that I feel
      There's no beginning,
      There'll be no end
      'cause on my love you can depend


      I see your face before me
      As I lay on my bed
      I kinda get to thinking
      Of all the things you said, oh yes I did
      You gave your promise to me and I
      Gave mine to you
      I need someone beside me
      In everything I do, oh yes I do


      You know I love you, I always will,
      My mind's made up by the
      Way that I feel
      There's no beginning,
      There'll be no end

      'cause on my love you can depend
      Got to keep it moving
      Oh it's written in the wind
      Oh everywhere I go, yeah, oh well
      So if you really love me, love me, love me
      Come on and let it show
      Come on and let it show
      Come on and let it
      Come on and let it (come and let it show, baby)
      Come on, come on, come on let it show baby
      Come on and let it show
      Come on and let it show, baby
      Come on and let it show

      By bit (bit by bit, bit by bit)”

        Baby I Love your way: Big Mountain: 1994



        “Shadows grow so long before my eyes
        And they're moving across the page
        Suddenly the day turns into night
        Far away from the city but don't hesitate
        'Cause your love just won't wait hey
        Ooh baby I love your way every day
        Wanna tell you I love your way every day
        Wanna be with you night and day

        Moon appears to shine and light the sky
        With the help of some fireflies
        I wonder how they have the power shine shine shine
        I can see them under the pines
        But don't hesitate 'cause your love won't wait hey
        Ooh baby I love your way every day
        Wanna tell you I love your way every day
        Wanna be with you night and day uh yeah

        But don't hesitate 'cause your love won't wait
        I can see the sunset in your eyes
        Brown and grey and blue besides
        Clouds are stalking islands in the sun
        Wish I could dry one out of season
        But don't hesitate 'cause your love just won't wait hey
        Ooh baby I love your way every day
        Wanna tell you I love your way uuhh
        Wanna be with you night and day
        Ooh baby I love your way every day
        Wanna tell you I love your way uuhh
        Wanna be with you night and day”

          DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince: Girls of the world ain’t nothing but trouble: 1987
          The 80's is a textbook example of bubble-gum pop..Just talking about my generation!
          “What your name? It Mary, Sue or Elaine?”



          “Listen homeboys don't mean to bust your bubble
          But girls of the world ain't nothing but trouble
          So next time a girl gives you the play
          Just remember my rhyme and get the hell away


          Just last week when I was walking down the street
          I observed this lovely lady that I wanted to meet
          I walked up to her I said hello
          She said you're kind of cute I said yes I know
          But by the way sweetheart what's your name
          She said my friends like to call me exotic elaine
          I said my name is the prince and she said why
          I said well I don't know I'm just a hell of a guy
          But enough about me yo let's talk about you
          And all the wonderful things that you and I can do
          I popped some cash and in a little bit of time
          I showed some cash and the girl was mine
          I took her over town I wined her and dined her
          She ask me did I like her I said well kinda
          All of a sudden she jumped out her seat
          Snatched me up by my wrist and took me out to the street
          She started grabbing all over me kissing and hugging
          So I shoved her away I said you better stop bugging
          She got mad looked me dead in my face
          Threw her hands in the air and yelled out rape
          I got scared when she started to yell
          So I handed her my wallet and ran like hell
          I was ducking through alleys right and left
          But when the cops caught up they almost beat me to death
          I was arrested charged with aggravated assault
          (Yo clancy we got him)
          But it wasn't my fault
          Nevertheless don't mean to bust your bubble
          But girls of the world ain't nothing but trouble
          So next time a girl gives you the play
          Just remember my rhyme and get the hell away

          I was in a bar one Friday night
          Cooling watching a mike Tyson fight
          I was maxin and relaxing sippin on tequila
          When this girl walked up she said hi my name is sheila
          I responded by saying hello
          She paid for my drink and then said let's go
          20 minutes later things were starting to cook
          As we pulled up into her house I said I'm with you toots
          The music was soft and there was wine in the glasses
          She started winking and making little passes
          At me she pat me close that's when she got bold
          She started feeling up my back I said oh your hands are cold
          We went to her bedroom thinking of one thing
          Took the phone off the hook to avoid the annoying ring
          I caressed her body and I kissed her cheek
          And that's when I observed those satin bed sheets
          I felt that it was time for me to make my move
          I thought I better hurry up before I busted a groove
          I leaned down to kiss her but then out of the blue
          A door slammed and a voice said baby where are you
          Her boyfriend busted in he grinned an evil grin
          And said boy I'm a tear your butt limb from limb
          I was scared as hell where I was supposed to go
          I just yelled Geronimo and jumped out the window
          Just my luck we were in a snow storm
          And all I had was my underwear on to keep my warm
          And to top the night off I had to break in my place
          Because my keys were on pants back on Sheila’s book case
          I was done sneezing and coughing
          I hope this doesn't happen to often
          But nevertheless don't mean to bust your bubble
          But girls of the world ain't nothing but trouble
          So next time a girl gives you the play
          Just remember my rhymes and get the hell away

          Jazzy: you man you think they see your point
          Prince: I don't know I don't think they really do
          Jazzy: I think you should give 'em another example
          Prince: aright give me a scratch let's make it funky right here

          I got a ring on my phone may 5th last year
          It was my girlfriend betty I said hello dear
          I was just about to call you I got a couple tickets to the run dmc concert
          (I'm wit it)
          It's six o'clock now at eight will you be ready
          (Yeah)
          All right fine see you then betty
          I combed my hair washed and brushed my teeth
          Got funky fresh dressed in my La Coq Sportif
          Got to betty's at eight I was ready to jet
          Until betty's mom said betty's not ready yet
          I sat there for at least an hour
          It was ten after nine before she got in the shower
          9:35 she comes downstairs
          And said I need a little longer to finish my hair
          At ten o'clock we had then missed the show
          She comes downstairs and says let's go
          Go where? go to sleep I'm gone
          I was steaming like a demon as I drove home
          But it just goes to show
          Not trying to bust your bubble
          But girls of the world ain't nothing but trouble
          So next time a girl gives you the play
          Just remember my rhyme just remember my rhymes
          Take heed to my rhymes and get the hell away

          Jazzy:
          Man first your parents just don't understand
          Then you having these crazy nightmares

          Prince:
          I know why me man why me
          Jazzy: what's next
          Prince: now these girls man you know how it is
          Can't live with 'em can't live.”

            Love is all around; I still can not decide whether the original or the Wet recording was the best. Many happy memories though...

              I have some phenomenal memories with this song as well. The Troggs version will always remain the true classic, in my opinion, Wet Wet Wet made the song a masterpiece....

                        Glad you like it. Vanash has really started something special here. Wish we could get some more contributors. Also some comments on what a particular song/artist meant for you.

                          Bob Marley: Three Little Birds: 1980 Real good music true and beautiful in my top 50.

                          It also created a very weird effect when played in I AM LEGEND. Where the zombies are coming......HHH....hhhhh..hhhmh.HwA!..HHH.....Thre e little birds....HH...hWha...on my doorstep.....hh...HmHH. You get the drift.

                          Post some Elvis 1957, good stuff. For some reason I cant post videos. Too stupid to know why, but will figure it out somehow.
