Love Shack, Baby, Love Shack…

Let’s say you had your own cover band.

And let’s say they followed you around all the time playing accompaniment for your life.

And let’s say that I’m drinking too much hot chocolate today and it’s making me all silly.

And let’s say that they are going to record an entire album, a type of soundtrack for your life.

And let’s say that you get to pick the songs.

And the title of the album will be taken from your most fitting song.

What would be your title track?

Mine would be “Here Comes the Sun” – TAM‘s would be “Love Shack.” :shock:

    like, B52′s Love Shack?

    how come?

    youre weird.

    how ’bout Eagles – Witchy Woman

    :evil:

  2. Brent says go with “Love Shack” – just sayin.

    But if you wanna claim “WITCHAAYY WOMANNN” I won’t argue.
    Brent probably won’t argue either! ;)

    now that song will be stuck in my head..

    “my chrysler is as big as whale…and sits about 20 so come on and bring your jukebox money” hahahaha thats all i remember…

    I don’t know…will have to think about it but I just don’t see Tam as a witchy woman either…mmmm back later for my two cents..

  4. Does anyone even know the part that the woman yells….? Something like “TIN ROOF – RUSTED!” Is that it???

    You know, B52s are from Georgia. Just sayin.

    Ok. Tam officially doesn’t get Witchy Woman.
    So, what does she get???? I think we should stick with Love Shack.

    Or!!!!

    “I like my women just a little on the trashy side… When they wear their clothes too tight and their hair is dyed”

    hhhmmmmm…….

    1. Life Is A Carnival – The Band

    “You can walk on the water, drown in the sand
    You can fly off a mountaintop if anybody can
    Run away, run away–its the restless age
    Look away, look away–you can turn the page”

    Also:

    Wonder – Natalie Merchant

    “People see me
    I’m a challenge
    To your balance
    I’m over your heads
    How i confound you
    And astound you
    To know i must be one of the wonders”

    My theme song:

    Dancin Fool – Frank Zappa:

    “I got no natural rhythm
    But I go dancin every night
    Hopin one day I might get it right
    Im a dancin fool, Im a
    Dancin fool”

    Let’s just say you’ve been drinking too much…

    But to answer your question, it would have to be an Extreme lyric. I’ll go with my favorite Extreme song:

    “Am I Ever Gonna Change”

    I’m tired of being me,
    and I don’t like what I see,
    I’m not who I appear to be
    So I start off every day,
    down on my knees I will pray,
    for a change in any way
    But as the day goes by,
    I live through another lie,
    if it’s any wonder why

    AM I EVER GONNA CHANGE
    WILL I ALWAYS STAY THE SAME
    IF I SAY ONE THING,
    THEN I DO THE OTHER
    IT’S THE SAME OLD SONG,
    THAT GOES ON FOREVER
    AM I EVER GONNA CHANGE
    I’M THE ONLY ONE TO BLAME
    WHEN I THINK I’M RIGHT,
    I WIND UP WRONG
    IT’S A FUTILE FIGHT,
    GONE ON TOO LONG

    Please tell me if it’s true,
    am I too old to start anew,
    cause that’s what I want to do
    But time and time again,
    when I think I can,
    I fall short in the end
    So why do I even try,
    Will it matter when I die,
    Can anyone hear my cry?

    AM I EVER GONNA CHANGE
    TAKE IT DAY BY DAY
    MY WILL IS WEAK
    AND MY FLESH TOO STRONG
    THIS PEACE I SEEK
    TILL THY KINGDOM COMES

  8. (Is it possible to O.D. on chocolate? I THINK NOOOOOTTTT!!!!)

  9. (Didn’t I hear that dogs and cats die from too much chocolate? That can’t be good.)

  10. Kelly says:

    Superchick! Rock what you got! Yup, that would be mine:)

  11. ramsey72 says:

    Yeah…we had a pug when I was growing up and we couldn’t give her chocolate…..something like it could kill her. My great grandmother ate chocolate every day and she lived to be 102…..hmmmm

  12. gitz says:

    Sara Barellies – Sittin’ on the Dock of the Bay

  13. Ram: BRING ON THE CHOCOLATE!

  14. Rule #1 of leaving blog comments: Stay on topic.

    (hangs head in shame)

  15. Joy Renée says:

    i think mine would be…. dancin’ in the moonlight (toploader style).

    is it possible that we are both drinking the same cocoa?

  16. Joy Renée says:

    i’m sorry…”hot chocolate”

  17. Joy Renée says:

    [tin roof...rusted!....i think that's probably about 3 of the six words i can actually understand in that song....]

  18. (Why not continue with today’s derailing of comments!)

    Is there a difference between hot chocolate and cocoa?

  19. darla says:

    yes, hotchocolate comes in those little packets or made with chocolate syrup, and cocoa is made with cocoa and sugar and warm milk… i think…

  20. Joy Renée says:

    i don’t know the difference, i just didn’t know if you were one of those weird ones who claims there is one.

  21. tam says:

    “Or!!!!

    “I like my women just a little on the trashy side… When they wear their clothes too tight and their hair is dyed””

    MANDY!!!!!

  22. Ed says:

    If you buy it from Hershey’s it’s hot chocolate.

    If you buy it from Godiva it’s hot cocoa.

  23. I think Tam needs some hot cocoa (The Godiva kind!)

  24. Heidi says:

    The only time I was ever really drunk was on Godiva’s Hot cocoa liqueor in Phoenix, AZ. Let’s say my husband got a surprise.

    hmmm…

    No it gives bad hangovers.. Nestles will do!!

  25. tam says:

    yes. yes i do.

    can i have it with a shot of decaf and a little bit of vanilla?

    no?

  26. David says:

    So…um…what was this post about again?

    Oh yeah – theme song to life.

    Mine would be “Chorus” by Erasure…I think…

    Yes, chocolate is very bad for cats & dogs

    When I lived in a small country town, we did Love Shack in CHOIR. The accompanist had been a widow for 30 years, and proclaimed “this is doing things to me I had totally forgotten could be done”

    I think some of the older members had heart attacks on the spot.

    I can’t believe no-one’s taken Frank Zappa’s “Valley Girl”. Who wouldn’t want that as their theme…. Like, well, ya know…

  27. ‘i got plenty of nothin’ ( and nothin’s plenty for me).

    as for Love Shack – that song has never been the same for me since the Simpsons’s covered it when Homer found out he could get away with all kinds of stuff if he slapped people with a glove and offered them a good ol’ Southern Duel, demanding ‘satisfaction’ Sir.

    (And i quote)

    Glove Slap, baby, glove slap.
    Glove slap, i don’t take crap
    Glove slap, shut your big yap…..
    A glove slap in their little old face will get you sat-is-fac-shu-u-u-unn.

    Glove slap Bay-ay-beeee…

    Glove baby that’s where it’s at… yeah,
    glove baby give it a slap.

    classic :-)

    Blame it on the chocolate! ;-)

    <B

  28. Joy Renée says:

    haha. can i change my song to “glove slap” by homer simpson?

  29. alece says:

    hmmmm…..

    why are these sorta things so hard for me?! my answer today will differ from my answer tomorrow.

    today i’m going with “shifting sand” by caedmon’s call.
