If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Yesss. Because I just heard a song I haven't heard in ages and I love it. Summer soooooooooooooong!

"On a lonely day,
I look out on the freeway
I can fantasize
About the car I drive
Don't need the light on,
I can find my way
It's been so long now I have to say...

I'm going to California,
Gonna live the life
Sipping on tequila night after night,
Dreaming of the moment when everything was right
A little bit of love goes a long way tonight...

I'm on my way (I'm on my way),
Heading for the sun
That's where I'll stay...
I'm never going back home
Do you ever feel like you need a change?
Hang out where no one knows your name...

I'm going to California,
Gonna live the life
Sipping on tequila night after night,
Dreaming of the moment when everything was right
A little bit of love goes a long way tonight...

Would you like to meet me there?
We'll be dancing on the sill (dancing on the sill),
These days will never leave
They'll go on and on and on...

On a lonely day,
Look out on the freeway
I can fantasize
About the car I drive
Don't need the light on,
I can find my way
It's been so long, now I have to say
It been so long,
Now I have to say...

I'm going to California,
Gonna live the life
Sipping on tequila night after night
Dreaming of the moment when everything was right
A little bit of love goes a long way tonight...

Going to California,
Gonna live the life
Sipping on Tequila night after night
Dreaming of the moment when everything was right
A little bit of love goes a long way tonight"

So you been to school for a year or two and you know you’ve seen it all
In daddy’s car, thinkin’ you’ll go far, back east your type don’t crawl
Play ethnincky jazz to parade your snazz on your five grand stereo
Braggin’ that you know how the niggers feel the cold and the slum’s got so much soul
It’s time to taste what you most fear, right Guard will not help you here
Brace yourself, my dear… brace yourself my dear
It’s a holiday in Cambodia, It’s tough, kid, but it’s life
It’s a holiday in Cambodia, don’t forget to pack a wife
You’re a star-belly sneech, you suck like a leach, you want everyone to act like you
Kiss ass while you bitch so you can get rich, but your boss gets richer off you
Well you’ll work harder with a gun in your back for a bowl of rice a day
Slave for soldiers ‘til you starve, then your head is skewered on a stake
Now you can go where people are one
Now you go where they get things done
What you need, my son…what you need my son
Is a holiday in Cambodia where people dress in black
A holiday in Cambodia where you’ll kiss ass or crack
Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot
It's a holiday in Cambodia where you'll do what you're told
A holiday in Cambodia where the slums got so much soul
Pol Pot

Its the nothing-ness
The whiteness
The endless-ness
Stretching on beyond human imagination
Desolation of the soul
OH MY GOD

Ice flow - nowhere to go
Ice flow - nowhere to go
Lost in the blinding whiteness of the tundra

Whiteness
Nothingness
Endlessness
Death

The whiteness of the whale pales in comparison
Oh my god - who the hell are you?

Iím little Johnny Frostbite
Moving around
Freeziní you up freezing you down
Like an icicle
Coming in your tent in the pink light scissor bite
Arctic death
Infinite night

They call me tundra boy
Because I move like an arctic - lizzard
When the Blizzard strikes I disappear like a pipedream
All thatís left is the gleam - on a tent peg

Boosh Boosh - stronger than a moose
Donít lock your door or weíll come through your roof - top
Stop look around take your mind off the floor
Because the Boosh is loose and weíre a little bit raw!

Ice, flow, nowhere to go
Ice, flow, nowhere to go
Lost in the blinding whiteness of the tundra

With the fire from the fireworks up above me
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain at hand
You run for cover in the temple of love
You run for another but still the same
For the wind will blow my name across this land

In the temple of love you hide together
Believing pain and fear outside
But someone near you rides the weather
And the tears he cried will rain on walls
As wide as lovers eyes

In the temple of love: shine like thunder
In the temple of love: cry like rain
In the temple of love: hear my calling
In the temple of love: hear my name

And the devil in black dress watches over
My guardian angel walks away
Life is short and love is always over in the morning
Black wind come carry me far away

With the sunlight died and night above me
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain inside
You run for cover in the temple of love
You run for another its all the same
For the wind will blow and throw your walls aside

With the fire from the fireworks up above
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain
You run for cover in the temple of love
I shine like thunder cry like rain
And the temple grows old and strong
But the wind blows longer cold and long
And the temple of love will fall before
This black wind calls my name to you no more

In the black sky thunder sweeping
Underground and over water
Sounds of crying weeping will not save
Your faith for bricks and dreams for mortar
All your prayers must seem as nothing
Ninety-six below the wave
When stone is dust and only air remains

In the temple of love: shine like thunder
In the temple of love: cry like rain
In the temple of love: hear the calling
And the temple of love is falling
Down

In the temple of love: shine like thunder
In the temple of love: cry like rain
In the temple of love: hear my calling
In the temple of love: hear my name

In the black sky thunder sweeping
Underground and over water
Sounds of crying weeping will not save
Your faith for bricks and dreams for mortar
All your prayers must seem as nothing
Ninety-six below the wave
When stone is dust and only air remains
The only haven you can trust

And the devil in black dress watches over
My guardian angel walks away
Life is short and love is always over in the morning
Black wind come carry me far away

With the fire from the fireworks up above
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain you

You run for cover in the temple of love
I shine like thunder cry like rain
And the temple grows old and strong
But the wind blows longer cold and long
And the temple of love will fall before
This black wind calls my name to you no more

In the temple of love you hide together
Believing pain and fear outside
But someone near you rides the weather
And the tears he cried will rain on walls
As wide as lovers eyes

In the temple of love: shine like thunder
In the temple of love: cry like rain
In the temple of love: hear my calling
And the temple of love is falling
Down

Cheese is a kind of meat
A tasty yellow beef
I milk it from my teat
But I try to be discreet
Oh, cheese
Oh, cheese
Oh, cheese is very sweet

I miss you more than Michael Bay missed the mark
When he made Pearl Harbor
I miss you more then that movie missed the point
And that’s an awful lot girl
And now, now you've gone away
And all I'm trying to say
Is Pearl Harbor sucked and I miss you

I need you like Ben Affleck needs acting school
He was terrible in that film
I need you like Cuba Gooding needed a bigger part
He's way better then Ben Affleck
And now all I can think about is your smile
And that ****** movie too
Pearl Harbor sucked and I miss you

Why does Michael Bay get to keep on making movies.
I guess Pearl Harbor sucked
Just a little bit more then I miss you

:oops:
Grrr. Argh.

Eeeeeeeeeew. I'll never eat cheese again. :o

"America, [composite word including 'f*ck'] Yeah!"... ahhh that movie.

"Oh, I get it. I'm supposed to get in your car and let you put your finger inside me. Then if I go down on you I get a movie part."

"Please Gary. I'm not from Hollywood. I'm not going to [composite word including 'f*ck'] your mouth and my time is extremely valuable."

"Jesus, this is a nice limo."

"Yes, it is. Now suck my ****."

Alright, enough quoting. And on with the quoting! I'm having a Tea Party. No hatters, hares or doormice or whatever involved. :o

"I took a slide, slipping down a staircase
A Piranesian dream
My senses reeled, distorted by the darkness
I lit my way with a scream
And in the rave an alarum caused a cracked mirror,
I got confused by the sound
I turned around, touched it from a distance
And then it fell to the ground...

Loud cry from the shallows,
Lust feeds on the fear
Walls crack under pressure,
I think the end is getting near

And in my mind that was the fury of a madness
That consecrated the dirt,
I stumbled through the enigma of its reason
And celebrated the hurt
And then I found in an act of desperation
A subtle rip in the heart
I was seduced by the taste of devastation
And then it tore me apart....

Loud cry from the shallows,
Lust feeds on the fear
Walls crack under pressure,
I think the end is getting near- Oh no, nothing matters
When it takes me
When it rapes me,
Breaks me,
Shakes me down

A quick escape from the fear of commination,
I slept the night with the spleen
A thin excuse, I was searching for some answers
I broke away from the scene
'Cause after all animality's an instinct,
And its Luxuria's slave
To taste the truth, it's a seizure of the senses
And its a foot in the grave

Loud cry from the shallows,
Lust feeds on the fear
Walls crack under pressure,
I think the end is getting near- Oh no, nothing matters
When it takes me
When it rapes me,
Breaks me,
Shakes me down

Oh no, nothing matters
When it takes me
When it rapes me,
Breaks me,
Shakes me down

Oh no, nothing matters,
When it takes me
When it rapes me,
Breaks me,
Shakes me down"


***
"Imagine this if it all falls in place,
And your love under will glimpses grace
All you'll see is mystery, face to face

Would you tell, should you speak, could you say
That the love that you feel's come of age
All you see is mystery and obey

And put your arms around her waist...
Remember all forgotten days
The seduction's strong,
This white water siren's song

Circles me, circles you, circles all
And enchants and delights and enthralls
All we see is mystery
All in all

So put your arms around her waist
Remember all forgotten days
The seduction's strong,
This white water siren's song

Everyone's a star that shines...
All we see in life are signs

Should I tell, should I speak, could I say
That my love under will's glimpsed its grace
All I see is mystery
And I obey...

I put my arms around her waist,
Remember all forgotten days
The seduction's strong,
This white water siren's song

'Cause everyone's a star that shines...
All we see in life are signs

So put your arms around her waist
Remember all forgotten days
'Cause it's all too strong,
This white water siren's song"


***

"When the winter was over, she returned there to find him
And her memories filled her with light
She remembered the beauty, she remembered desire
and her memories filled her with light

I am the sun in the flame,
Cold from the flame turns away,
And in these winds came a change
She awakes

[kick ass musical bit wot is brilliance]

Sister walk through these fields of delight, but I want you to know
Desperation's the tenderest trap, so gently you go
What will it take,
Sister awake
Sister awake
Sister


When this beautiful cult of desire has left you for dead,
Isolation will cradle the lies of things left unsaid
What will it take
Sister awake
Sister awake
Sister

And you'll look to the heavens above and taste it's deceit,
These temptations have blinded desires to sleep at their feet
What will it take
Sister awake
Sister awake
Sister

And you'll hear heaven call out your name, invoking the fates
Chances are you've travelled too far in stirring their hate
What will it take, my sister awake
Sister awake,
Sister awake,
Awake,
Awake"

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

I always flirt with death
I look ill, but I don't care about it
I can face your threats
Stand up straight & tall and shout about it

I think I'm on another world with you, with you
I'm on another planet with you, with you

You get under my skin
I don't find it irritating
You always play to win
I don't need rehabilitating

I think I'm on another world with you, with you
I'm on another planet with you, with you

Another girl, another planet
Another girl, another planet

Space travel's in my blood
And there ain't nothing I can do about it
Long journeys wear me out but
I know I can't live without it

I think I'm on another world with you, with you
I'm on another planet with you, with you

Another girl is loving you now
Another planet, is holding you down
Another planet

I love you through sparks and shining dragons, I do,
Now there's poetry in an empty coke can.
I love you through sparks and shining dragons, I do,
Now there's majesty in a burnt out caravan.

You got me off the paper-round,
Just sprang out of the air.
The best things come from nowhere,
I love you I don't think you care.

I love you through sparks and shining dragons, I do,
And the symmetry in your northern grin.
I love you through sparks and shining dragons, I do,
I can see myself in the refill litterbin.

You got me off the sofa,
Just sprang out of the air.
The best things come from nowhere,
I can't believe you care.

Hear them saying:
How'd you get so rude and reckless?
Could you be more crude and feckless?
You've been drinking brew for breakfast
Rudie can't fail

And we reply:
A lot of my life I've been nervous,
But I tell you I can't live in service
Like the doctor who's born for a purpose
Rudie can't fail

I went to the market to realize my soul
What I need I just don't have
First they curse, then they press me till I burst
Rudie can't fail

Hear them sayin':
You'll learn to control your temper
And find a job in a paper
And you need someone for a Savior (BEST VERSE EVER!)
Rudie can't fail

Now we get rude and reckless
We've been seen looking cool and speckless
We've been drinking brew for breakfast
Rudie can't fail.

Okay!
So where you wanna go today? Hey boss man!
You're looking pretty smart in your chicken skin suit
You think you're pretty hot in your pork pie hat...
But... Rudie can't fail!
Rudie can't fail!

Just heard a snippet of this ****** beaut on an advert and since it is just about as good as dane music gets I think it's going to have to go on repeat for a good while now...

De-Lacy - Hideaway

Another man who tries to run me
Thats the way to make me run away
He don't know he's just'a pushing me
To a man who'll make me happy

(Hmmmm...)

I'm an independant woman
I don't need no man to take care of me
Have nobody to pay for my problems
Cause I supply my own security

I need a Huh, Huh, Huh, Hideaway
To make me run away
(Listen to me)
Need a Huh, Huh, Huh, Hideaway
To make me run away (Noooo)

(Heeeeooooohuh, Heeeeooooohuh)

If its not one things its another
Don't you get caught out playing with two timing brother's
Love with make you blind everytime
But now I need a little peace of mind

My mistake was letting my guard down
Setting myself up for just'a one round
Now you just don't need to let me go
Now I know, you don't have no clue

I need a Huh, Huh, Huh, Hideaway
To make me run away
(Sing it with me)
Need a Huh, Huh, Huh, Hideaway
To make me run away (Noooo)

(Heeeeooooohuh, Oooo-ooo-ooooo, Heeeeooooohuh)

I need your love
Heeeeya don't wanna love
I want your love
Heeeeeeyya

I need a... A Hideaway

Mmmmmmmheh

I need to go
Don't you need to go
Don't you need to know
Ooooooo

The Source ft. Candi Staton - You Got The Love

Sometimes I feel like
Throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying
Lord I just don't care
But you've got the love I need
To see me through

Sometimes it seems that
The going is just too rough
And things go wrong
No matter what I do
Now and then I feel
That life is just too much
But you've got the love
I need to see me through

When food is gone
You are my daily meal
When friends are gone I know
My saviour's love is real
Your love is real

You've got the love...

Sometimes I feel like
Throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying
Lord I just don't care
But you've got the love I need
To see me through

Oh yes so rough some times
Oh the going gets so hard, I know
You've got the love...

Sometimes I feel like
Throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying
Lord I just don't care
But you've got the love I need
To see me through

All I can do sometime
To keep it together
But I know you got it
You've got the love...

Sometimes I feel like
Throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying
Lord I just don't care
But you've got the love I need
To see me through
