Just a little LOVE SONG...

It comes at a time when everyone needs a breather in their complex lives, someone write a song that stirs the deepest emotion, from the recesses of their soul to the twinkle in their eyes.

Ares son of Zeus; god of prophecy, light, poetry, and music, may not have started it, but he at least recorded it, if only in mythology, music is emotion. Songs in general, and LOVE SONGS in particular, have answered our need to express our inner passion, yearning, and desires, into sounds and words.

Poetry, and verse do translate into feelings and conjure up strong desires, lust, and yearnings, but when blended with sound it seems to hit the desired note in all of us..

Share with us, if you would please, your idea of the true love song, and if I assure you I won't tell anyone, tell me how it worked on you.... fingers crossed, eyes squeezed shut, mouth covered... ;)

I'LL HAVE TO SAY I LOVE YOU IN A SONG

I once went to an event…Hillary, to meet you
I knew what I’d say if I…had the chance to greet you
But the Secret Service told me I must move along
So I’ll tell you I despise you in a song

I’d express it as I did in each note and e-mail
That you’re really not much like any other female
But the Secret Service told me I must move along
So I’ll tell you I despise you in a song

I’d be asking why you’ve done many things unlawful
All the research is complete…you are really awful
But the Secret Service told me I must move along
So I’ll tell you I despise you in a song

I know why you’re not the one…that your husband’s humping
Were you mine it’s from a bridge that I would be jumping
But the Secret Service told me I must move along
So I’ll tell you I despise you in a song
So I’ll tell you I despise you in a song

I've stopped listening to sad, romantic love songs. They only remind me how lonely I am.

[Slip18]

Doug, that was the most beautiful song for Hillary I've ever heard. You are a talent!

[malia]

Thanks! Thanks for giving us beautiful music this am. I love Celine's music and Bocelli is Bocelli - together they are a gift.

[rockfish59]

Don't the gays play romantic disco music?

[rockfish59]

I sure hope Dubya had the White House plumbing replaced!

Memories...

Hold Me (Kill the pop-ups first)

[Allegra]

Painfully embarassing to look back on it now. 'Bread'?! sheesh...

I had that 8-track in high school too...and loved it. Come to think of it, my boyfriend in my senior year sure played that one a lot when we were out on dates...LOL

[Allegra]

No a chance, but I am thinking of new ways...LOLOL any Ideas??

It's hard to go wrong with the Righteous Brothers.

Just a suggestion. :-)

[Howie]

Some times Mama plays this one for me on the pieano or organ, I just get goosebumps.....(all over) My bridge over troubled waters.

[rwfromkansas]

Sandlot. I will have to rent that again...lol.

JERICHO / Joni Mitchell

I'll try to keep myself open up to you
That's a promise that i made to love
When it was new
"just like jericho" i said
"let these wall come tumbling down"
I said it like i finally found the way
To keep the good feelings alive
I said it like it was something to strive for.

I'll try to keep myself open up to you
And approve your self expression
I need that, too
I need your confidence, baby
And the gift of your extra time
In turn i'll give you mine
Sweet darling, it's a rich exchange
It seems to me
It's a warm arrangement!

Anyone will tell you
Just how hard it is to make and keep a friend
Maybe they'll short sell you
Or maybe it's you
Judas, in the end
When you just can no longer pretend
That you're getting what you need
Or you're giving out anything for them to grow and feed on.

I'll try to keep myself open up to you
It gets easier and easier to do
Just like jericho
Let these walls come tumbling down now
Let them fall right on the ground
Let all these dogs go running free
The wild and the gentle dogs
Kenneled in me.

"how gay is this?

Dont remember that one. Was that by Jim Neighbors?

[fish hawk]

WHEN YOU'RE NOT NEAR

It is as if
The sea would taunt the shore
Falling stars 
Call out your name.... and more
The clouds appear
To clutter up the sky
When you're not near
The leaves don't fall....they die

It is as if
The seasons change each day
Migrating birds
Get lost along the way
The smile I wear 
Is but a cheap disguise
When you're not near
The rain gets in my eyes.
               Fish Hawk

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

Must be an Italian thing. ; )

Though I'm far from a country music fan, here is mine.

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

Nicely done, Fish Hawk.

[Argh]

BWWaaaahahahahaha, way to go, Doug!

 My shortest poem. 

  PERFUME

Her perfume said, "kiss my neck"
Her eyes said, "listen to the perfume"
