~Favorite Sweet Songs ~
Lou Reed - Sweet Jane
Standing on the corner Suitcase is in my hand Jack is in his corset, and Jane is in her vest I'm in a rock 'n' roll band Ridin' in a Stutz bear cat, Jim Those were different times The poets they studied rules of verse And those ladies rolled their eyes You know you sweet Jane Oh now baby, sweet Jane Oh yes sweet Jane Now Jack, he is a banker And Jane, baby she is a clerk And both of them save their money honey When they come home from work Sittin' there by the fire The radio does play the classical music there, kid The march of the wooden soldiers And you can, you can hear Jack say You know he saying, "Sweet Jane Ooh baby, sweet Jane Ah yes sweet Jane" Some people like to go out dancing Whereas other people like us got to work Gotta watch me now and there's even some evil mothers They'll tell you life's just dirt That the pretty women never really faint That villains always blink their eyes That children are the only ones who blush And that life, life is just to die, but I want to tell you something Anyone who has ever had a heart Oh oh wouldn't turn around and break it half Anyone who has ever played a part They're not gonna turn around and hate it You know they're singin', "Sweet Jane Ah sweet Jane

Lynyrd Skynyrd - Sweet Home Alabama
Big wheels keep on turning Carry me home to see my kin Singing songs about the Southland I miss Alabamy once again And I think it's a sin, yes
Well I heard mister Young sing about her Well, I heard ole Neil put her down Well, I hope Neil Young will remember A Southern man don't need him around anyhow
Sweet home Alabama Where the skies are so blue Sweet Home Alabama Lord, I'm coming home to you
In Birmingham they love the governor Now we all did what we could do Now Watergate does not bother me Does your conscience bother you? Tell the truth
Sweet home Alabama Where the skies are so blue Sweet Home Alabama Lord, I'm coming home to you Here I come Alabama
Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers And they've been known to pick a song or two Lord they get me off so much They pick me up when I'm feeling blue Now how about you?
Sweet home Alabama Where the skies are so blue Sweet Home Alabama Lord, I'm coming home to you
Sweet home Alabama Oh sweet home baby Where the skies are so blue And the governor's true Sweet Home Alabama Lordy Lord, I'm coming home to you Yea, yea

Also "sweet" can be used to describe the style of a particular musician, such as Miles Davis. It can also be used to describe the style of bands of the "Big Band Era." "Sweet" bands, which tended to be more down-tempo and melodic as opposed to swing bands, included the ones led by Sammy Kaye, Richard Himber, Orrin Tucker, etc.
Swing and Sway by Sammy Kaye & His Orchestra is typical of the "sweet" band style, which was lampooned by swing band leader Charlie Barnet in The Wrong Idea (1940) and by Guy Marks in Loving You Has Made Me Bananas, which, believe it or not, was a hit in 1968.

Good evening, Lady/Gentleman....
fatima and I both tried to add to the Topics, without success.
Would you please add this thread to "culture, extended, fr" so it will show up in its normal places.
Thank you in advance.

Have you tried to add Topics....it didn't recognize the ones we use every day.
I know the mods can fix it, and an evening snack should help. LOL!

Hi! I tried adding the topics requested but they didn’t take. Could be a system glitch. Sorry.
