Music u remember...

“trying to get a cd together that includes songs that you'll never stop liking... u know what I mean?

I am having total brain cramps right now and can't think of any at all...

old and new songs are okay.

here the ones I have:
train: drops of jupiter
perl jam: the last kiss
soul asylum: runaway train

thinking about Chicago: if you leave me now
(not so sure though...)
Also ELO...(living thing??) Got to listen to this again to make sure I still like it though. lol

I have a couple names in mind but cna't think of the songs:
chapman, (don't even know how to spell here name or if i talk about tracy chapman...I think I mean the other chapman) see...it's a problem.... BIG HUGE BRAIN CRAMPS

clapton
dylan

they each had songs out that I really liked but can't find them... dammit.

so...what i would like for you guys to help me with...is to post any song that you really like...preferable older, but new is fine.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!”

“Chicago, It Better End Soon”

“Gem, trying to help you here. You say "the other Chapman". I am not aware of another Chapman from my experience. You wouldn't mean Harry Chapin, by any chance, would you?

Clapton and Dylan have had so many songs that listing them would be prohibitive. Any clues as to lyrics or such and I may be able to narrow some of those down for you.”

“Nazz - "Hello, Its Me"

hey, you said old!”

“nope, so maybe it is tracy chapman. for some reason I thought Chanice?? It maybe tracy...dammit...told you i have real brain cramps about this...

I got NOTHING!! nothing at all! Total Brain cramp! I do remember they are very popluar songs. LOL

I know I am a lousy help...but I hoped this thread would somehow bring me back from my loss of oxygen to the brain. hahahahah

i got to go right now, but will be back around noon. Maybe brain working until then. :)”

“oh, one fo the i think clapton songs tells about death of the girl...i think?? hmm... I THINK :(

it was just a really good song, well I thought so. you still hear it once in a while on the radio. Actually I don't think it's THAT old.”

“http://www.funnyjunk.com/movies/54/Farting+Preacher+Two/stream

Try this out on your brain cramps!”

“EC worte "Tears In Heaven" for his son, who perished in a fall from a window down the block here in NYC in the mid 90's. These are the lyrics. That may be what you are thinking of...

http://www.eric-clapton.co.uk/ecla/lyrics/tears-in-heaven.html

As far as Dylan goes, "Like A Rolling Stone" may beone of the more popular ones. Or, "Knockin' On Heaven's Door". Or, well, let's start with those before the list gets much bigger...

“Treebeard, what are you, like a DJ or something?”

“Yeah. He fell out of a high rise on 57th street about 10 years ago. Faulty window guards or something like that...”

“Sssssh. I'm incognito!!”

“http://www.funnyjunk.com/pages/history.htm

Here's a little history lesson.”

“Here Comes the Sun and Obladee-Oblada by the Beatles.”

“heck I can't remember what I listened to yesterday..to many drugs back in my youth”

“Tears in heaven...yes, that's one of them. Love that song.

bad part is that I don't remember any of the lyrics, so that doesnt' make it easy for me or I could search....

well, I have one less to go.



ewwww....sorry but I do NOT like the beatles. :(


MarkO...LMAO I didn't even click yet and I already know i'll be laughing...


oh, if you don't tell anyone...this is sort of a christmas present for a friend in Germany...but I want a copy too. (please don't tell) ;)

“nope, that ain't it. I don't think. (the rolling stone)
dang...this is harder then I thought...”

“Tears In Heaven (Eric Clapton) Ver. 11

Verse:
] A E/G# ]F#m A] D A ] E ]
Would you know my name if I saw you in Heaven
] A E/G# ]F#m A] D A ] E ]
Would it be the same if I saw you in Heaven

] F#m ] C#/E# ] Em ] F# ]
I must be strong and carry on

] Bm ]E7sus E7 ] A E/G# ]
Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven

] F#m A ] D E7sus E7] A ]

Would you hold my hand, if I saw you in heaven
Would you help me stand, if I saw you in heaven
I'll find my way through night and day
`Cause I know I just can't stay here in heaven.


Bridge:
] C G/B ] Am D ] G D ] Em D G ]
Time can bring you down Time can bend your knees

] C G/B ] Am D ] G D ] E ]
Time can break your heart Have you beggin please beggin please

Instrumental of first two lines, then:

] F#m ] C#/E# ] Em ] F# ]
Beyond the door, there's peace for sure
] Bm ]E7sus E7 ] A E/G# ]
and I know there'll be no more tears in heaven.

] F#m A ] D E7sus E7] A ]

repeat 1st verse

] Bm ]E7sus E7 ] A E/G# ]
Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven

] F#m A ] D E7sus E7] A ]

Fingerpick it [2 beats per pattern].
There are a couple of places where achord
only gets 1 beat -Just squeeze the chord
pluck the 4 strings simultaneously.


Finger both the E/G# and the C#/E# chords in a open D chord shape
with the thumb wrapped around to the 6th string. Like this:

C#/E# The E/G# is the same thing played at the
--X-X------ 4th fret
T ] ] 1 ] 2
-----------
] ] ] ] 3 ]

>Chorus:
>] F#m ] C#/E# ] Em ] F# ]
> I must be strong and carry on

The Em sounds much better if you add a C# with your pinky
(2nd fret at the B string)”

“For who? You or me? :)


How about this? Is it a slow song or a fast tempo?”

“okay...got the dylan song: blowing in the wind. yeahh...

okay...I LIKE IT!! :)”

“now...chapman or was is chaplin?? janice chaplin??? could that be it??”

“Ya got me on that one....”

“Oh, look out!!!

Here comes the Innuendo Squad !!

“"the night the drove old dixie down"??

“And it was Joan Baez who did an incredible version of it.

J. Robbie Robertson wrote it, not Dylan

“if i can't find enough songs...I'll buy one of those cd's advertised on TV and copy it and pretent I made it myself. LOL

“Virgil Caine is the name, and I served on the Danville train,
'Til Stoneman's cavalry came and tore up the tracks again.
In the winter of '65, We were hungry, just barely alive.
By May the tenth, Richmond had fell, it's a time I remember, oh so well,

The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and the bells were ringing,
The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and all the people were singin',
They went Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na,
Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na

Back with my wife in Tennessee, When one day she called to me,
Virgil, quick, come and see, there goes Robert E. Lee!
Now I don't mind choppin' wood,
and I don't care if the money's no good.
Ya take what ya need and ya leave the rest,
But they should never have taken the very best.

The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and the bells were ringing,
The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and all the people were singin',
They went Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na,
Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na

Like my father before me, I will work the land,
Like my brother above me, who took a rebel stand.
He was just eighteen, proud and brave,
But a Yankee laid him in his grave,
I swear by the mud below my feet,
You can't raise a Caine back up when he's in defeat.”

“Every time I make one of favs, Gem. I wind up making another. I'm in the triple digits at this point...”

“Dylan: Girl from the North Country with Johnny Cash is good. Tangled up in Blue.

Clapton: could you be thinking of Layla?”

“Layla?? I think it was the tears in heaven song.

i am not too much into country, nor in to blues...those those I was talking about aren't really neither. I don't think so at least.

I am gonna check on layla though. Maybe on my list without realizing it. heehee, wouldn't surprise me.



Oh Layla!! I just checked. I actually really like that song, but it's not on my list. It doesnt send me back in my past...doesn't click...know what I mean??



I may need to stick with the newer 80's stuff... like Yes, and stuff like that...

“i know a song from a couple of years back, but i dont know who wrote it, its the song abought moving to the country and eating allot of peaches”

“Layla is the Clapton song written about the wife of his best friend, George Harrison. Clapton and the then Mrs. Harrison were knocking boots.”

“I like anything by the Village People.

Give me a Macho Man anytime. wink wink”

“Sun Is Shining...bob marley ??”

“Skimmery Rinky-Dink”

“"I actually really like that song, but it's not on my list. It doesnt send me back in my past...doesn't click...know what I mean??"

You're stuck in a time warp......brain cramps, yada, yada.........you're lost in the sauce.”

“most songs from bob marley are great. I have the cd though.

I am on the phone with Germany right now... to check what i could record.”

“You like Kraftwerk??”

“"I am on the phone with Germany right now... to check what i could record.”

In that case make it Accept- Balls to the Wall or some Ramstiene.

“Ramstein? Kraftwerk? it's been a while...maybe I can add them on another CD.

hey, hey...I am not lost in the sauce.
Lost in the sauce?? WTF??

“Does she know Dick?”

“Mark, what's wrong with u? better edit that!”
