Tuesday Tunes @ The Music Memoirs

Word Association again! Remember give us an artist song band etc that you think of when you see these words.

TV: Coffee and TV - Blur

"Good Morning Vietnam Best Scenes" (Watch on YouTube)

Entertainment: That's Entertainment - The Jam (Paul Weller)

Waking up at 6 a.m. on a cool warm morning
Opening the windows and breathing in petrol
An amateur band rehearsing in a nearby yard
Watching the telly and thinking about your holidays
that's entertainment.

Drive: Drive - The Cars

You can't go on, thinkin'
Nothings wrong
(who's gonna drive you)
(who's gonna drive you)
Who's gonna drive you home, tonight?
(who's gonna drive you home)

Dark: Dark Lady - Cher

One of my favorite Cher songs.

Dark lady laughed and danced
And lit the candles one by one
Danced to her gypsy music
Till her brew was done
Dark lady played black magic
Till the clock struck on the twelve
She told me more about me
Than I knew myself

Job: Get A Job - The Silhouettes (Sha Na Na revived it though)

Yay for a little doo-wop!

Every morning about this time
she get me out of my bed
a-crying get a job.
After breakfast, everyday,
she throws the want ads right my way
And never fails to say,
Get a job
Sha na na na, sha na na na na

Cat: The Year of the Cat - Al Stewart

Love this song, love the lyrics.

She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running
Like a watercolour in the rain
Don't bother asking for explanations
She'll just tell you that she came
In the year of the cat

Silence: Enjoy the Silence - Depeche Mode

All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

Enjoy the silence.


Noise: Cum on Feel the Noize - Quiet Riot

Okay, time for a little headbangin'.

So cum on feel the noize
Girls rock your boys
We get wild, wild, wild...

Creep: Creep - Radiohead

I want you to notice
when I'm not around
You're so very special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep,
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here

Rose: Kiss From a Rose - Seal

I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.
The more I get of you
The stranger it feels, yeah.
And now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grave.
There is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain
My power, my pleasure, my pain, baby
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny.
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby?

Blur...

I don't know what it is, but I've been listening to a lot of the music I used to listen to my late teen years--so Coffee and TV has been getting pretty good play on my ipod lately. I've been wanting to reminisce via watching the video, so thanks for the link up! :D

Year of the cat

[meeow712.livejournal.com]

Year of the cat brings up some fun memories.

I was in Spain with my ex and we were having drinks with some Britts....and he got the song stuck in his head and kept singing it to them. For a few hours I think. We were all pretty drunk, but I'm sure it drove them nuts.
And I heard it the entire time we were in Spain because it was stuck in his head. Especially after drinks. :)

Hey!
