I know the music threads tend to have a bit of overlap;though it is my hope, by categorizing them we’ll find what we’re looking for more.

Do you know a song, that the chorus or something about the song, has you singing in your mind or aloud? I want to hear these happy songs!

Here’s the lyrics to Everything Is Coming Your Way
Open your eyes,
Let it begin with me.
Brand new day,
Fresh new way to live,
The mornin is callin
Walk with me into the sun.

Everything is comin our way
Everything is comin our way.
Everything is comin our way.

Heres my hand
Reaching out to you
Take it, darlin
And lead me on, yeah.

Everything is comin our way
Everything is comin our way
Everything is comin our way.
Ah.

Organ solo:

Everything is comin our way
Everything is comin our way
Everything is comin our way.
Ah.

I can feel it in my bones
No man stands alone.
Sister, brother,
From all the same seed

Everything is comin our way
Everything is comin our way
Everything is comin our way.

Here is one song that has been playing alot on my mind today is Mercy by Duffy, song is so raunchy! This song gets played alot at the gym.

Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah Yeah

I love you
But i gotta stay true
My morals got me on my knees
Im begging please stop playing games

I dont know what this is
Cos you got me good
Just like you knew you would

I dont know what you do
But you do it well
I’m under your spell

You got me begging you for mercy
Why wont you release me
You got me begging you for mercy
Why wont you release me
I said release me

Now you think that I
Will be something on the side
But you got to understand
That i need a man
Who can take my hand yes I do

I dont know what this is
But you got me good
Just like you knew you would

I dont know what you do
But you do it well
I’m under your spell

You got me begging you for mercy
Why wont you release me
You got me begging you for mercy
Why wont you release me
I said you’d better release yeah yeah yeah

Im begging you for mercy
Yes why wont you realse me
Im begging you for mercy

You got me begging
You got me begging
You got me begging

Mercy, why wont you realise me
Im begging you for mercy
Why wont you release me

You got me begging you for mercy
Im begging you for mercy
Im begging you for mercy
Im begging you for mercy
Im begging you for mercy

Break it down

I think I’m gonna have to add a couple of songs to my signature too.

The Rembrandts Rollin’ Down The Hill

Rollin’ Down The Hill
——————————-
You ask me where we’re goin’-Well I don’t know
Let’s just sit back and dig the radio
Now we’ve been friends forever-Would I let you down?
It’s time to stop and take a look around
AND WHEN THE GEARS BEGIN TO GRIND
THINK OF ALL THE MOUNTAINS WE HAVE CLIMBED
NOT SO LONG AGO WE WERE STANDIN’ STILL
AND NOW WE’RE ROLLIN’ DOWN THE HILL
I got a pack of troubles-You’ve got yours too
And we both know that that ain’t nothin’ new
So get up off your worries-Roll away the stone
And live the life that you have never known
(CHORUS)

We did a lot more stuff too, but that gives you a feel for the kind of stuff we did mostly. We did some pretty cool jazz stuff too.
Oh yeah, that reminds me of some more.

tainted love

Man, that was a great exercize. I’ve forgotten how to spell, is it “ze” or “se”.

Brings back a lot of good memories.

This morning I woke up with the song ‘Angie’ by rolling stones in my head. Hadn’t heard it for a million years and all of a sudden I hear it my dream: Angie, Aaaangieee……
Don’t quit know yet what to make of it.
