Your name is Banana?

Bananas are your friend. Very healthy.

So what's your song gonna be?

You and Gunbot are the big song posters. Find me a song with "Anwyn" in it. Betcha can't!

RHIANNON
(by Jed O'Connor/Jed Silverstar copyright 1981)

White mare in a silver caparison,
Mane blowing like thistledown snow,
Bears one to the land of a fairer sun;
To Anwyn Rhiannon would go.[/quote

I am both impressed and irritated in equal measure. American neo-Pagan or "Celtic" musician, right? That little furphy drives me crazy! The word they want is Annwn, not Anwyn and it pisses me off every time I see it. It's kind of the equivalent of someone saying Hell and Helen are the same name.

Fine, no song for you then.

Good one, I've never heard that one.

Michael Bolton has a rocker called Gina on "The Hunger". No youtube but samples here:

What a sweet anthem.

Thanks! Get ready to hear some new "old" demos in just a few. I'm uploading three tracks as I type this, and once they're done I'll be posting them here to download. :wink:

Who do you think I am...the Skipper? :lol:

Sorry Ginger, I HAD to take it. That is a challenging name for a song. Besides, my wife might start asking "Who the hell is this Ginger you're writing about!???" :lol:

Just replace the name Melinda with Ginger every time you hear it in the chorus, and there you go! :wink:

I was just joking.........But Perry......he can write me a song anyday! :wink:

You just keep singing about Melinda. I would not do anything to interfere with a good marriage! With my husband Daniel I can sing Danny Boy or Danny's song. Melinda is your wife...........right? :shock:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ko9nGrGtAY

People smile and tell me I'm the lucky one
And we've just begun, I think I'm gonna have a son
He will be like you and me, as free as a dove
Conceived in love, the sun is gonna shine above

CHORUS
And even though we ain't got money
I'm so in love with ya honeyEverything bring a chain of lo-o-o-o-ve
And in the mornin' when I rise
Bring a tear of joy to my eyes
And tell me everything's gonna be all right

Love a guy who holds the world in a paper cup
Drink it up, love him and he'll bring you luck
And if ya find he helps your mind, better take him ho-ome
Yeah 'n' dontcha live alone, try to earn what lovers own

It would be a challenge to write a hook with your name though. I think I could do it, but it'd take a while. Yes, Melinda is my wife. We just had our 15 year anniversary last week! :shock:

MAN I'm getting old! :lol:

Well Happy Anniversary Belated! 15 years that is just great! This will be our 7th! Feels like we are still honeymooners! :wink:

Only song I know with my name remotely in it is East of Ginger Trees by Seals and Croft~ not a great song

Hello Mary Lou by Ricky Nelson continues to be mentioned to me to this day. Ozzie & Harriet was a cute show, but Ricky did not have the talent of his sons.

Dexy is short for Dexadrine, which is an amphetamine. They called themselves the "Midnight Runners" because you could stay up all night on that stuff. I have no personal experience with it, just love that kind of trivia.

I was just messing with you. Same here. Back before I got in the Army National Guard, I smoked like it was going out of style! :shock:

Now I just smoke on the weekends..................................................................................I'm JOKING of course. :lol:

I've been in 18 years now, and I'm not about to screw my life or career up over that crap. Bud Light suits me just fine. :wink:

These aren't favourites - I just can't believe there are four songs with my name in the title (not the same spelling though) and I don't like any of them!

Steve Perry: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__eI4u_tQD8

Hardline: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NYD3AAN5tY

The Four Seasons: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5npm165RxWQ&feature=related

Rick James :shock:

: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxShm15jBuA

I just found the Rick James song - yet another song with my name in it that I don't like! The one by Matthew Dear has the correct spelling, but it's so bad I'm not listing it :lol:

At least I like the chorus in 'Oh Sherrie' and Neal's guitar in 'Hot Cherie' (the lyrics are just a bit embarrassing in that one though :oops:

)

by **tammy** » Tue Feb 24, 2009 3:19 am

Here's another song I've always liked..."Alison" Elvis Costello: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tI4Qel8qvW0

And, this one takes me back..."Denise": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahbhS4bvkTk

There's so many great name songs!
