Bruce lyrics I really like...
 
Should I Fall Behind:

We said we'd walk together baby come what may
That come the twilight should we lose our way
If as we're walkin a hand should slip free
I'll wait for you
And should I fall behind
Wait for me

We swore we'd travel darlin' side by side
We'd help each other stay in stride
But each lover's steps fall so differently
But I'll wait for you
And if I should fall behind
Wait for me

Now everyone dreams of a love lasting and true
But you and I know what this world can do
So let's make our steps clear that the other may see
And I'll wait for you
If I should fall behind
Wait for me

Now there's a beautiful river in the valley ahead
There 'neath the oak's bough soon we will be wed
Should we lose each other in the shadow of the evening trees
I'll wait for you
And should I fall behind
Wait for me
Darlin' I'll wait for you
Should I fall behind
Wait for me

I always kind of froze up (as in stopped breathing pretty much) as a youngster when this song came on the radio. It was so pretty, but so sad sounding. I never knew what the hell the lyrics meant... but, I could "somehow" relate to it (?), and did have some opinions on what I thought it was about.

Ah, songs that stir the human emotions...

THIS is one of my all time TOP TEN favorite songs ever:

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKeXkhxiq6I"]YouTube- Scott McKenzie - San Francisco[/ame]

I was quite young, but hittin' a very early adolescence, and sucking up things I saw in magazines and on the news regarding the Viet Nam War and this "peace movement".

Through the music is thus my dearest involvement. (I'm guessing I was around 11 or 12 years old during Woodstock, but we then had the album then at home right after via my brother.)

*The ONLY thing close to relating to this directly was the earliest Mich. Fest years then of the womyns music festival movement - that too was a "happening" of course. And the early queer marches in D.C.

Which reminds me of Selenay playing that American Pie song several pages back... politics through music back then. First womyn's music! How lucky was I to have experienced that? I feel very grateful and fortunate.
__

Also, Selenay why I liked that one song you recently posted... (the Dawn Landes "Straight Lines" video... that has been running through my brain all night), I have a real "jones" for the glockenspiel sound in music (or bells and chimes too), as is in this Scott McKenzie song.

My percussion background, I'm sure!

Well, that Straight Lines song made me feel quite emotional too for having just spent Christmas Eve and morning with my parents, and wondering if it would/could be my last... they are UP there in age! And thinking of the early days, yes. (I figured that out the next day after listening to it! Therapeutic music is too, eh?) :)

PEACE OUT!

Baptism Of Fire
 
this song isn't on any youtube or anywhere but it's an old favorite:

Baptism of fire, I never knew what that meant
But now the flames are rising higher, I guess
I haven't seen anything yet
Because it's coming down around me
and I am rising up
Like a phoenix from the ashes
wings across the blue
The only way out is through

Forest of fury, kindling of fear
Oh see how dark the woods have grown
after all these years
And now they're coming down around me
and I am rising up
Like a lily from the shadows,
glistening and perfumed
The only way out is through

All the detours taken never lead you home
What a maze you find yourself in and still alone
Oh you thought it should be easy
so the truth eluded you
The only way out is through

Baptism of fire all happening within
Illusions burn like tall grass
in a wild and reckless wind
And now they're coming down around me
and I am rising up
Like a great bell resurrected, ringing loud and true
The only way out is through

-- written by Julie Snow, sung by Lui Collins

He was NY’s talk of the town
Heard out to the LI sound
He started datin models and he figured it out
He used to be a nice guy, then he cut that shit out
Qualified sex machine,
No better than a vowed fiend
She wanted a ride to the Upper East Side but he dropped her ass off in Queens

New York: full of kings and queens, all the rest just mimic us
Cuz in the city of dreams

That boy would play his guitar like he was ready for war
And then he’d lift up his voice to the sky

I wish I could say, "No regrets,

And as we kiss goodbye the sun sets,
So we are history,
The shadow covers me,
The sky above a blaze that only lovers see.

He walks away,
The sun goes down,
He takes the day but I'm grown.
And it's okay,
In this blue shade
My tears dry on their own.

I may have mentioned that the bulk of my collection is swing, jump blues and jazz.
My favorite band from the 40s (or one of them) is Charlie Barnet who played sax. There's hardly a piece of his that I don't like.
Favorite trumpet player: Harry James, hands down

I'm a brass fan, can ya tell?

WILDCAT 01-13-2010 10:18 PM

A little interesting to me...
 
After the Beatles split up there was so much written about them, and their relationships with each other. Many felt that Paul was more than "just hurt" John moved on, that he in fact loved him deeply. I always thought this song, which is post Beatles by Paul was "to John", as well as other songs I heard of his throughout the years - and one really intense song that I can't think of right now - post John's death (where he does sing about loving him and states as much, that he wrote it for John).

We do know that Brian Esptein, the manager of the Beatles was gay, and loved JOHN - in fact there is a good chance that they were "intimate" with each other - which is pretty special actually I think, before Brian ended up committing suicide later. (A decent bit of material was in fact written suggesting that and not disputed by John, that I can recall).

Anyway, I just thought of this song, looked it up and the intro is: Message to John Lennon - from Paul. Now, I don't know if Paul wrote this "message" here, or someone else computer made this photo/dedication. Pretty song though - from the mid-70's I believe. (Like Paul's third or fourth solo album - I think...?) Anyway, this is posted as a Beatles song, which is incorrect (above the URL), so I think someone internet posted/wrote this dedication - so perhaps I was not the only one who felt this song was personal from Paul, to John way back then. (Or, maybe Paul DID admit it at some point, later and I missed it!) Ahhh, sigh... classic love stories never truly, fully quite revealed - makes me wonder as a hopeless romantic.

(Don't mind me, just having a conversation with myself here now about this. LOL. Hope someone enjoys a little Beatle trivia.)

Beautiful Boy
 
One of the most pretty John Lennon songs:

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5BBEOjUKrI"]YouTube- John Lennon - Beautiful Boy.flv[/ame]

Most folks know that John hung up public performing and recording for five years to raise his son Sean, (while Yoko ran the "corporation"). They had so much trouble having a baby together... so John stayed at home and was Mr. Mom and baked, etc...

Then he came out with the album after this time, where he was shot right after it's release.

It was so very messed up.

He wrote and sang this song for Sean - it was a lullaby. (Later in a public appearance he dedicated the song openly to both Sean and his son Julian - from his first marriage, whom he had not spent enough time with him or had gotten to know throughout the years. They kind of had just reconnected better right before John was shot.)

*My favorite line in this song:

"Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans..."


Keep the peace... you never know what can happen.

I have been in love with Dusty Springfield FOREVER!!

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XQon5NsYVw"]YouTube- Dusty Springfield - I Only Want To Be With You[/ame]

She did the big band sound in the late 50's and early 60's. I loved her voice. Actually, I play this song on the guitar. AND, ironically the first ever "official lesbian" album - which was by Alix Dobkin... Alex recorded this song on.

AND... why is that ironic, you ask? Well, because you all KNOW that Dusty finally admitted that she loved women, right? She lived most of her life in England. I wonder WHO the lucky lady - or butch was!!! (Or women...?)

I was very saddened when I heard that we had lost Dusty.

:rose:

___

OK, another trivia question: What WAS the title of the very first recognized lesbian recorded album? (i.e. Women singing love songs to women - no hiding here!) This is an easy find. I'm just curious to see if anyone cares to look it up! WINK...

:awww:



*Bonus question: What other two very well "out" women at this historical time/happening, were on the back of that album jacket cover - who both went on to solo artist recording womyn's (as it was referred to at that time) music as well.

Plus, IF you can post that darn photo (of the three women) Selenay you get a FLOWER from me! I don't know how to do that... I have that album, here somewhere too.

WILDCAT 01-14-2010 07:33 PM

Some folks...
 
... just AGE so damn well!!

Wild this first clip is from BING CROSBY show from 1977, and then (if accurate) this follow-up from 2002, of the same song! Dag!!

The wonderful thing to me about Bowie, IS... well, I was in high school when his first hits came out, and the straight boys loved him - even though he was wearing make up and so adrogynous looking, and "moving" unlike the traditional male rocker or pop artist (yes, whatever that means?), etc...

AND, in a little Peyton Place like town. I was impressed!

Little Richard also wore the make-up and was WILDLY ahead of his time, as I feel the original one for being daring this way... back in the 50's!

And then we heard, of course, that Jagger and Bowie slept together. Yes, the times, they were a changin'... (I'm not stating this as FACT, no one get upset please... but, this is pretty well documented that they were caught together in bed by one of their girlfriends at the time. Cool.) (f)

The version I have by the Prague Philharmonic isn't available on YouTube. I did find this version as a score to shots of Maine. It's beautiful, but just a little slower and takes a bit longer to get into the melody.

I think...
 
... this is one of my favorite Bowie songs. I just think it's beautiful... although obviously political.

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrERLeFseDA"]YouTube- David Bowie - China Girl[/ame]

However, I feel this is one of the most politically important songs of his... initially - that captivated the general masses:

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVYbwpe99MM"]YouTube- David Bowie Changes[/ame]

(BUT THEN, REBEL REBEL is very relevant too, as he sings, your mother is "not sure if you're a girl or a boy"! I love that!! (My mother certainly wasn't sure!)
__

And then... I like this song - not sure totally why... I think that David used stage presence brilliantly from the "get-go" of his career, and then when MTV and VH1 came along - he really took off so well with it! It showed such a different part of the artist for some music performers. (Remember the "early" MTV videos were just the band standing there and performing. Now, we got to see what "they" meant by their song... or wanted us to think anyway.)
