A song that started out as “Symphony for the Devil” and ended up as one of the Band’s most popular regular tour numbers.
Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith
And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
I stuck around St. Petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank
Held a general's rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah
I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
I shouted out,
"Who killed the Kennedys?"
When after all
It was you and me
Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached Bombay
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's confusing you
Is just the nature of my game
Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails
Just call me Lucifer
Cause I'm in need of some restraint
So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I'll lay your soul to waste, um yeah
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, um yeah
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, um iddin' it, get down
Woo, who
Oh yeah, get on down
Oh yeah
Oh yeah!
Tell me baby, what's my name
Tell me honey, can ya guess my name
Tell me baby, what's my name
I tell you one time, you're to blame
Ooo, who
Ooo, who
Ooo, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Oh, yeah
What's me name
Tell me, baby, what's my name
Tell me, sweetie, what's my name
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Oh, yeah

Nice one trickzta. The Rolling Stones have always been making damn good music, that's why they are still around. Even as strolling bones I still like them!

PS. When adding a Youtube link, go to "insert video" (2nd icon from the right) on the taskbar above and paste your youtube link.

Justin Hines is an extraordinary man, and has an amazing voice, imho, Keith Richards has recorded with Justin. In Jamaica if I remember correctly. Justin Hines is an extraordinary man, and has an amazing voice, imho, Keith Richards has recorded with Justin. In Jamaica if I remember correctly.

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Yes, how many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, how many times can a man turn his head
Pretending he just doesn't see?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Yes, how many times must a man look up
Before he can really see the sky?
Yes, how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Double Dutch music video: Malcolm Mclaren
I love this music video released in 1983 by Malcolm Mclaren for just so many reasons. It demonstrated to a global audience the sheer magic of the local South African sound at that time.

The Wolf of Wall Street Movie
Who would have thought?
Old School Music has this uncanny ability to find itself in blockbuster movies. I recently went to the cinema to see ‘The Wolf of Wall Street.’
I most certainly didn’t expect Malcolm Mclaren’s 1983 song Double Dutch to be part of the soundtrack but it was!
A wow moment for me! I love this song.


Malcolm Mclaren: Double Dutch: 1983: Lyrics and Video




“All over the world high school girls
Take to the ropes and turn them slow
Starts a beat and the loop
They skip and jump through the hoop

They might break and they might fall
But the gals in New York City don't
They just start again, start again
Hey, ebo, ebonettes

Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes
Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes
Hey, ebo, ebo ebonettes
Hey, ebo, ebo ebonettes

The golden angels, the Fort Greene angels
The five town diamond skippers, the pleasure of rope rippers
Those dark and lovely skippers, those five town diamond skippers
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing

Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing

Hey, swing those ropes 'round and 'round
All the teams change your partners now
Somersault through the hoop, leap to beat
The clicks that keep on coming

Hey, watch your feet
To win the double dutch
Stay jumping
Hey, ebo, ebonettes

Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes
Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes
Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes
Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes

The mighty motion skippers
The pleasure of rope rippers
The dark and lovely skippers
The mighty motion skippers

Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing

Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing

Hey girls, how many skips can you do?

All over the world high school girls
Take to the ropes and turn them slow
Starts a beat and the loop
They skip and jump through the hoop

They might break and they might fall
But you know the gals in New York City don't
hey just start again, start again
Hey, ebo, ebonettes

Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes
Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes
Hey, ebo, ebo ebonettes
Hey, ebo, ebo ebonettes.”

No this one isn't a golden oldie but it should definitely be top of the charts.

They tried to make me buy an etag but I said No! No! No!

Got this in the mail this morning it may or may not be serious but If you are looking for a conspiracy theory this is definitely a real one.


Dear friends,

The US and the EU are on the verge of giving rich corporations the right to control what we all see on the Internet. It’s the apocalypse of the Internet as we know it. But free speech advocates and web companies are fighting back. Click to join the largest call for a democratic and free Internet ever:



The richest 1% could now control what we all see on the Internet forever. It’s the apocalypse of the Internet as we know it, and will erase the democratic promise of an information highway for everyone the founders of the world wide web imagined.

Together, our community has built on that vision, using the web to fight corruption, save lives, and bring people-powered aid to countries in crisis. But the US and the EU are on the verge of giving the richest corporations the right to show content fast, while paywalling or slowing down everything else. Avaaz’s ability to show the world citizen journalist footage from Syria, or run campaigns to save our planet is under threat!

Decisions on both sides of the Atlantic are being made now. But tech innovators, free speech advocates and the best web companies are fighting back. If millions of us join them now we can create the largest call for a democratic and free Internet ever. Sign up now and tell everyone:

http://www.avaaz.org/en/internet_apo...nYUJeb&v=34951

Until now, any improvements in the speed and functioning of the Internet benefited all of us — if Rupert Murdoch’s ultra-conservative Fox News got a faster way to stream videos, it also benefitted independent media showing reality on the ground in Ukraine, Syria, or Palestine. Politicians called this “net neutrality” and laws protecting it used to exist in the United States until a court just struck them down. Now, the EU Parliament is threatening to pass regulation that give ISPs the right to carve up the web and control what we see, by slowing down or charging for sites that don't pay.

But we can stop this. First, we will show up with massive global numbers into this week’s public meeting in the United States to decide whether to reinstate Internet protections. Then we will unleash a high powered lobby team to target the EU Parliament to ensure its committees listen to the public. This will be the big first step we need to win these important battles over the next few months.

Web providers like Verizon and Vodafone are lobbying hard for an Internet for the rich. And without a massive response from citizens, they could win, and put our whole community’s work at risk. Most of our Internet is located in the US and the EU so this affects us all. We don’t have any time to lose. Click below to join now:

http://www.avaaz.org/en/internet_apo...nYUJeb&v=34951

When our community was less than half of the size it is now, we rallied and helped kill the ACTA treaty and stopped massive Internet censorship laws SOPA/PIPA. Today, we are more powerful than ever. Let’s now join together and ensure that what connects us all stays open.

With hope,

Pascal, Emma, Dalia, Luis, Emilie, Luca, Sayeeda and the whole Avaaz team

An old favourite band and song from 1970, enjoy.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7ovl...e_gdata_player

Peter Green's song was written for Carlos Santana, not really but Carlos didn't need any lessons to play this song, no change in style either. A classic.

She's tryna make a devil outa me, (should be easy )

[Trickzta]

Yeah Wynne that's about the long and short of it. Social Media like FaceLook and much more is a CIA asset. The CIA used the internet for intelligence gathering before it was used by civilians. They still use the net for the same reason. Not even a theory.

In the 60s and 70s the Hippies (also a CIA inspired group) used to say if did away with paper, you'd do away with the Establishment.

I used to shake my head and say 'light up and leave me alone'.

Thinking back, they may have had a point. Practically an impossible task. Ask the Vatican about that one.

Today, if you switched the Internet off, it would cause unbelievable chaos. And I believe it's possible.

It was difficult to imagine destroying all the paper in the world. To destroy the internet is imaginable.

The City of London, the Jesuits of Rome, the Zionists of Asia and all their friends including the CIA, badly misjudged the phenomena known as the 'Internet'.

It's main aim was to be a method of spreading propaganda and spying or as they put it, intelligence gathering. Ultimately for control.

A backfire of enormous proportions was not expected at all. The internet snowballed much quicker than anticipated, in unforseen ways as well, and many of their other schemes under performed.

What they're trying to do now, is what they call damage control.

This is the biggest setback they never imagined, and they'll have to break cover or take time to recover, and time is running out.

Control the internet and you control the biggest propaganda machine in the world. (if this is not the biggest media today, it will be tomorrow)

Modern war strategy, suggests that one big bomb detonated a km above the ground, can knock out the power grid used by many cities.

This is more efficient than targetting the cities themselves.
No power is chaos. Back to the dark age, lol, iron age more likely.

I know that there are those that think that I'm a fool. Well this fool says that as things stand, the Internet is priority one for these guys (globalists), and that is one reason for the Chinese laying an internet optic fibre cable from China to South America via India and South Africa (BRICS) and bypassing North America.

Everything else is made in China so why not the internet? But in the meantime let's poke a finger in their eye. Keep the net bankerfree.

Thanks for sharing.

One of the few disco songs I like. Knock on Wood has been covered by many. Amii Stewart don't do too bad though.
