Old school music is cool!

Time for something old but new

Enjoy

Theocracy "Nailed"

I’ve been working for my whole life to get to the other side
And try to achieve true righteousness
All the scourges and whips I cracked
The flesh I ripped off my back
It only led me to emptiness

Here I am, a broken man who’s done all that a man could do
And found that it’s only filthy rags
Monasteries, religious schools, indulgences, laws and rules
It all added up to nothing and darkness and death
Vanity, Heartache, and emptiness
Efforts all fading away
The flesh and defeat that it brings
‘Till You guide me and show me things
That my eyes have never seen before
As I burst forth from the belly of the beast
Never fight it anymore
For the burden on my life has been released
Nail it to the door

Solo: Val

Nailed these ninety-five things I’ve learned
They’ll say that I must be burned
For God has no place for heretics
All the things that they try to sell
It’s trickery straight from Hell
To turn it into a den of thieves

See these madmen peddling the wares of dead men’s souls
Collecting on a debt already paid so long ago
There’s fire in my spirit, and fire in their eyes
For now they’ll want to burn me alive
Yet freedom rings
Unworthiness is all I bring
The blood of Christ is all I claim
This grace revealed everything
That my eyes have never seen before
As I burst forth from the belly of the beast
Never fight it anymore
For the burden on my life has been released
Nail it to the door

De do do do, de da da da: The Police: 1980
“Sting claims that people who dismiss this song have not bothered to listen to the lyrics. He said in a 1981 interview with the NME:’Certainly what we're producing is not elitist High Art: But; equally; I think entertainment's an art. I think my songs are fairly literate - they're not rubbish. 'De Do Do Do', for example, was grossly misunderstood: the lyrics are about banality, about the abuse of words. Almost everyone who reviewed it said, Oh, this is baby talk. They were just listening to the chorus alone, obviously. But they're the same people who would probably never get through the first paragraph of Finnegan's Wake, because that's 'baby talk', too.’”[1]

“Don't think me unkind
Words are hard to find
They're only cheques I've left unsigned
From the banks of chaos in my mind
And when their eloquence escapes me
Their logic ties me up and rapes me

De do do do, de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do, de da da da
Their innocence will pull me through
De do do do, de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do, de da da da
They're meaningless and all that's true

Poets, priests and politicians
Have words to thank for their positions
Words that scream for your submission
And no-one's jamming their transmission
And when their eloquence escapes you
Their logic ties you up and rapes you

De do do do, de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do, de da da da
Their innocence will pull me through
De do do do, de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do, de da da da
They're meaningless and all that's true

De do do do, de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do, de da da da
Their innocence will pull me through
De do do do, de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do, de da da da
They're meaningless and all that's true”

Okay, from the smiley icon, you have a link icon, then an unlink icon, then an insert picture icon and then an insert video icon, it looks like a film strip, It says insert video. Ofcouse, you will have to first find the video on youtube, you then copy, cut and paste the url into the insert video icon. I don't understand my own explanation! This is one for Dave

It’s always a treat to see Cameron Diaz in her underwear! This is especially so when she does her cute, goofy thing to Tavares’s ‘Heaven must be missing an angel,’ song in the movie ‘Charlies Angels.’ This is one true old school music classic that will remain timeless and universal and loved by millions of people this globe over..Tavares released this song ion 1976..
I give you Cameron Diaz in her underwear....



“Heaven must be missin' an angel,
Missin' one angel child,'Cause you're here with me right now
(your love is heavenly, baby),(heavenly to me, baby)



Your kiss filled with tenderness
I want all I can get of your sexiness
Showers, your love comes in showers
And every hour on the hour
You let me feel your loving power

There's a rainbow over my shoulder
When you came, my cup runneth over
You gave me your heavenly love
And if one night you hear crying from above

It's 'cause heaven must be missin' an angel
Missin, one angel child
'Cause you're here with me right now
(Your love is heavenly, baby)
(Heavenly to me, baby)


Ooooh, I'm captured by your spell
You're different, girl, I can tell (
When you're layin' on my pillow, baby
Above your pretty head, there's a halo
That's why I know

Heaven, must be missin'an angel
Missin' one angel child
'Cause you're here with me right now
(your love is heavenly, baby)
(heavenly to me, baby)
Oooh, my sweet little angel (heaven)
My pretty little angel (heaven)
I love you, love you, love you, (heaven)
Love you, baby, say right now (heaven)

Ooh, heaven (heaven)
Must be missing an angel (heaven)
Missing one angel, child (heaven

You must have slipped away along the Milky Way
It's 'cause (Your kiss)
Your kiss (filled with tenderness)
You came C O D on a moonbeam straight to me
Just like (Showers, showers, showers, showers)

Your heavenly power gets stronger by the hour
(Heaven, must be missin' an angel)
I'm captured by your spell
Oh, girl, can't you tell (Heaven)
Heaven (must be missin' an angel)

(It's just so good, so good, so good)
Just like heaven, oh, baby
(It's just so good, so good, so good)
(Heaven, yeah)”
