Counting Crows - Big yellow taxi

>
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swingin' hot spot
Don't it always seem to go

That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

[Vanessa Carlton]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop

[Adam]
They took all the trees, and put em in a tree museum
And they charged the people a dollar and a half to see them

No, no, no
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise, and put up a parking lot

[Vanessa]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop

[Adam]

Hey farmer, farmer, put away your DDT
I don't care about spots on my apples,
Leave me the birds and the bees
Please
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Hey now, they paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Why not?

[Vanessa]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop

[Adam]
Listen, late last night, I heard the screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi took my girl away
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Well, don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Why not?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Hey hey hey
Paved paradise and put up a parking lot

[Vanessa]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop

[Adam, Vanessa]

[Vanessa]

Hey, paved paradise to put up a parking lot

kt tunstall - black horse and the cherry tree

Well my heart knows me better than I know myself
So I'm gonna let it do all the talking.

I came across a place in the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse and a cherry tree.

I felt a little fear upon my back
He said "Don't look back, just keep on walking."
When the big black horse said, "Hey lady!" {When the big black horse said, "Look this way"}

Said, "Look this way, will you marry me?" {Said, "Hey, lady, will you marry me?"}

But I said no, no, no, no-no-no
I said no, no, you're not the one for me
No, no, no, no-no-no
I said no, no, you're not the one for me

And my heart hit a problem, in the early hours,
So I stopped it dead for a beat or two.
But I cut some cord, and I shouldn't have done it,
And it won't forgive me after all these years

So I sent it to a place in the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse and a cherry tree.
Now it won't come back, 'cause it's oh so happy
And now I've got a hole for the world to see

And it said no, no, no, no-no-no
Said no, no, you're not the one for me
No, no, no, no-no-no-no
Said no, no, you're not the one for me

{Not the one for me}

Said no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
You're not the one for me

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
You're not the one for me

(do, do, do, do)

Well I was
Big black horse and a cherry tree
I can't quite get there 'cause my heart's forsaken me
Big black horse and a cherry tree
(Big black horse and a cherry tree) I can't quite get there 'cause my heart's forsaken me

(Big black horse and a cherry tree) I can't quite get there 'cause my heart's forsaken me
(Big black horse and a cherry tree) I can't quite get there 'cause my heart's forsaken me
No, no, no, no
(Big black horse and a cherry tree) I can't quite get there 'cause my heart's forsaken me
No, no, no, no
(Big black horse and a cherry tree) I can't quite get there 'cause my heart's forsaken me
(Big black horse and a cherry tree) I can't quite get there 'cause my heart's forsaken me
(Big black horse and a cherry tree) I can't quite get there 'cause my heart's forsaken me
I can't quite get there cause my heart's forsaken me

(Big black horse and a cherry tree) I can't quite get there 'cause my heart's forsaken me
(Big black horse and a cherry tree) I can't quite get there 'cause my heart's forsaken me

Hi Fatima.

So many options:

I will choose “Red Barchetta” by the band Rush.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uukZgfHZIoc

Or perhaps “The Beautiful Blue Danube” composed by Johann Strauss II: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDaJ7rFg66A

“Ebony Eyes” by Bob Welch.

[PROCON]

Woo-Hoo, Happy FRiday Beachie!

I've been working a bit more than usual and a little later too due to other's vacations at work. I have the weekend of.

Hey, check this out. One of the things on my bucket list was to go to a Beach Boys concert; well, now, they are coming to my city next month at a big county fair here, Woo-Hoo! I bought a couple of tickets and patiently wait :-)

I got together twice this week with son but this weekend will probably turn out to be a lazy one.

So, what's up with you this weekend?

[luvie]

I’ll bet he was a wonderful father! Would have loved to hear him sing that beautiful song!

[luvie]

Gooooood Friday Mornin', Early Birds!
Hope this is a short and sweet work day for ya!!
I'm off today, so it's gotta be good! :)
Yay! Beachy got rain!
We could sure use some more!
I guess I'm greedy
...but I love green grass and trees! LOL!
Indeed, I noticed that it was still dark after 7am!
...kinda sad, but I AM tired of the heat!
Anyhoooooool....all y'all have a Fabulous Friday!
....and a Wonderful Weekend!
((((hugs))))

Thinking of you, Arrow!

[luvie]

Howdy PRO! ((((hugs))))

What a very cool thing that you’ll get to see the Beach Boys in concert!

Also...that you have the weekend off! Are you still working where you were a few months ago? Still just part time. That’s the way to do it! :)

[PROCON]

Hi Luvvy!

Looking forward to seeing the Beach boys.

I'm still working part-time at the same place, it's a good place and added income.

Cooler here and R&R is expected!

[luvie]

Howdy, EGC! (((hugs)))

All is well here....just enjoying a nice cup of tea with a biscuit and maple syrup. It’s a nice quiet morning and I’m hoping it won’t get too hot later. Have a feeling it will, though.

Did you and Bo have a good time at the lake yesterday?

Enjoy a great weekend! Will your son join you at some point?

We’re going to see out kids and hubby’s mom in Sept. Looking forward to getting outta Dodge, as it were! :)

Has it cooled off here? It was wonderful yesterday...only in the low 80s...but back to nearly 100 today. ugh!

[PROCON]

We've cooled to the 80's thankfully. My son and I hung out a couple of times this past week, but now that he has 2 jobs, not as frequently.

Stay cool and relax!

[CommerceComet]

I’m out. (Nice work)

I have to admit that was going to be hard to top. If you had topped it, I intended to fold - I had nothing left.

[MEG33]

Happy Friday To The Canteen

Blue Velvet
Thank you for the music thread, fatima.

I Wish You All A Good Weekend

[HandyDandy]

I have to admit that was going to be hard to top. If you had topped it, I intended to fold - I had nothing left.

Earlier I had discarded a "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" (complete with "happy little bluebirds") and a "Follow the Yellow Brick Road". But I don't think even that pair trumps a "Xanadu"!

[PROCON]

Woo-Hoo, hi MEG!

"Blue Velvet" was a great song, one of the classics.

I'm working a little later today, have a great weekend!
