"Silver, Blue, and Gold" seems like a terribly sad song to be the one to call your own, Cuz.

I've actually had the opportunity to get some foresight on this question of yours. A few years ago, my best friend from way back challenged our circle of friends to each make what he called a ME-CD...one mix-disc to tell the story of your life, and then we exchanged them with each other. I ended up with somewhere around 14 tracks, but the final three kind of summed things up in the way I think you mean. They aren't necessarily my favorite songs in the world, but they take me full circle in some respects.

The three are:

"In My Life" by the Beatles (v=-m6Kx0a6QEU)
No disrespect to the Divine Miss M, but come on, this is John Fucking Lennon. No other version quite measures up, in my humble opinion (though Johnny Cash's really moves me, too). This is the song I want played/sung at my funeral. Kids better remember that. I'm glad we have this one in common.

"The Riddle" by Five For Fighting (v=4BtqElO1OX4)
There's something about this song that burrowed into my subconscious the very first time I heard it. The closest thing to a "meaning of life" that I can comprehend is simply the act of experiencing the journey in the attempt to find answers to the greatest riddle of life: the reason we're here. I agree the song' s conclusion...the reason involves being there for each other.

And lastly...

"San Diego Serenade" by Tom Waits (v=7hbC-_79p7I )
A song about the regrets of taking things for granted. It has one of my favorite lyrics of all time: I never heard the melody until I needed the song. There's been some times where I really needed my oldest friend, the song, to get me down this bumpy road we call life...bet you have too.

Great post...as always.

As much as I know cling to my tried and true classic songs, I think we all have the need to keep our ears and hearts fresh with current stuff. Even if it isnt planned, just turning on the radio or TV gets us immersed in current music. That is a very good thing. Many will be the classics of tomorrow because so much music ties us to a time, person or place.

I know you've had a wild ride the last few years and you know I love your decor in your pics from events. Im glad to hear you say that you are still steadily moving along and involved in what you love.

Thanks for chiming in.

*nods* I'm not sure why you included a blush with this, love, as I think a LOT of women here could and would claim that song as a part of their journey for sure. In or out of any LS desires deliberately BECAUSE we see our own winding path, so very crooked yet so unlike that person in the song who gives nothing but grief on the path they blow down.

Thank you so much for including it, Sweet-TSarah

Oooooooooooooo that is a great one!

I went and watched it. Great voice, lovely background in beat and visuals.

Vlad posts quite a bit of German music so Im getting used to google translating the lyrics when they are available. It always makes me think of you posting that hard rock version of Spirit in the Sky that you said your sister drove you crazy with, so see, lol I think about you every day many times and reasons.

The translated lyrics to your song are below. Not much is lost in translation thankfully cuz WOW, you are right. It is an amazing tune.

And yeah, I can see you in this 100%, my TB!!!

Shadow and light

Wherever they fail, you have to attack, shift to a higher gear
And even if the rest then give up, it's bogged down
Stay tuned, tense and withstand
Lucky not to be confused with skill, but never doubt your skills
Never enough, but never too big goals
Take the air in your lungs to gasoline for the machine
The envy of so many to oil for the gearbox
New day, new luck, new rules, new players
Flying High's covered in depth
But without great sacrifices there is no big wins
We hear no No, no it is not, not the distance is too far
Because only with blood, sweat and tears you pay for infinity
And yet I know another way not
And even if you only estimates the value you pay also the real price
You say you can not, then you do not want - simply
Talent is just practice and practice makes perfect

Success is not happiness
But only the result of blood, sweat and tears
Life pays all times back
It just all depends on what you are
Shadow and light
Success is not happiness
But only the result of blood, sweat and tears
Life pays all times back
It just all depends on what you are
Shadow and light

Try again, new luck, it's too late for anything
For you reap only as much as you are also
And if your flame goes out then, you were just a little light
Or a fire high as houses that also burns in strong winds
You have to want it, as your lungs the air we breathe will
For wings grow a only when the courage and also jumps
If I fall, I stay lying, I stand and harder to fly
Only someone who is afraid of the case must crawl a lifetime
Never ever get on your knees, the view towards the sun
Save the sight in the event that it lightens and thunders times longer
Even if you lose once, you have to come back better than it was
The will makes the meat on your bones to concrete
Nothing is free, every inch you have to go myself
Because of alone nothing will come
Motivated the tunnel vision to your destination

Success is not happiness
But only the result of blood, sweat and tears
Life pays all times back
It just all depends on what you are
Shadow and light
Success is not happiness
But only the result of blood, sweat and tears
Life pays all times back
It just all depends on what you are
Shadow and light

No more time to wait, let the others sleep for me
The ever dream of success, but pull through until it is then there
Talent is hard work, perfection takes years
When they cry I easily it, then you have not got a clue
We come from deep within the dark, contrary to expectation
Hatred and envy, blood and sweat gives life only more experience
Persistence is the key to fame
There are a lot of what I'm missing, but this I've had enough

Success is not happiness
But only the result of blood, sweat and tears
Life pays all times back
It just all depends on what you are
Shadow and light
Success is not happiness
But only the result of blood, sweat and tears
Life pays all times back
It just all depends on what you are
Shadow and light

You've mentioned the REM song before for that very reason, being a break up / EX song.

Just like THE RULES thing I mentioned last month, I think we all have an unconscious song in our heads or hearts that we know fit us even if we dont think about it.

WE, well at least us ladies, definitely find "us" songs that tie us to our loved ones in yet another string of love.

Such a playlist we have in a lifetime, no?

Probably why I hate death metal and gangster

    Our song is definitely "put a candle in the window" by CCR. Every time I hear it I think of her, what we've been through and how much she means to me.

    As for a song that defines me? Too difficult. And no I'm not so deep I can't be defined my mood shifts too often. It would be a mix of 5-6 songs. Some days I am full of wonder and other days I want to see it all painted black.

    You Are the new day by the king's singers
    Spread love by take 6
    Painted black by the stones
    46 & 2 by Tool
    A pirate looks at 40 by Jimmy Buffet

    I'm sure there's at least one more that describes me but it's escaping me.
That is quite the list of powerful songs, 2 completely new to me yet!

I can absolutely see it

Ooooo thank you, Dibs!

I dont know if you remember or not, but had both of those songs as my profile names at 'the other place' so they are very much how I see me.

I truly dont see silver blue & god as a sad song, though. Very passionate and powerful yes, because it is a recurring mix, just like life, of sad yet hopeful openhearted love. It never makes me do anything but smile. Just like In my life does.

Lol speaking of, just like Die Hard II, I knew the Bette version first so to me, its the most solid in my heart though not the one I most often play. Truth? First time I ever heard the song was on an episode of Family Ties and I fell in love with it on the spot and hounded every adult I knew by singing it at them until I could figure out who really sang it. And them out came the movie "for the boys' and there was Bette bellowin it on MTV. I am so not claiming the Michael Gross / Meridith Baxter Birney version as my fave though!

I love that premise of a physical soundtrack of ME. What a great thing to make permanent! Ive done it for others(usually kids, weddings or funerals) but not myself. I really need to do so.

I loved, loved, loved your selections and I have to agree with them all as being pretty spot on in how I see you too. You've got a hugely impressive collection of music in that noggin of yours, so I cant even begin to imagine how hard it was to pick just a few like that. Thank you for providing the quick links so I could check them all out as I read along and replied!

Instrumentals are their own complete language understood by all and damn, that Leyenda was an amazing one. I have a love of that kind of Spanish style music anyway, and have been going Joan Baez crazy lately with her 'Llego con tres heridas' so that change up was a nice change up!

    1. No funeral, burn me up, have them extract anything worthy of giving to someone else, roll the remaining ashes in a cheech and chong album paper, have a party, everyone take a toke singing 'don't bogart that joint my friend'

    that's how I am going out
LOL you wouldnt say that if you knew the people I know. They'd see a buddah size blunt on the horizon and say 'why wait?'

I better keep it quiet and just add you to the list of folks I have responsibility for once they kick it up for the last time.

Ive got a damned good funeral cd mix, I will have you know, so don't be hasty. I think all would celebrate you with as many smiles laughs and tears as we do now and that's a mighty fine thing.

    Do you really want to hear it ? You see when I first heard The big O (Roy Orbiston ) I was hooked , gives me goose bumps to hear his sound , so bold and strong and one of his songs was called Communication breakdown , its fckn Awesome ! Truckers say on their radio (thats a big Ten four buddy ) meaning I got you ! I understand ! then add for O as in for Orbiston , his song communication Breakdown ! Which means you lost my drift and thought I meant Oprah ! get it ! Communication breakdown !!!! Now I know its a Zep song as well but I like Roys song best ! Hey I will send the lyrics to your mail , hows that sweetie ?
Of course I want to know what you were talking about! I didnt really think it was Oprah, but Orgasms didnt work either based on context so.........lol I gave it the 2nd "first thing that pops into your head'' treatment! Many summers on the road as a kid and far too many trucker movies in the 70's ensured I knew what 10-4 was, but still........lol that had nothing to do with no Big O OR an acronym.

Oh hon, I love Roy Orbison in so many ways and for so many reasons, but that is a horribly heartbreaking sad song. That isnt a breakdown that is a tragic implosion of seemingly known neglect and drama filled glee over something to piss n moan about. I forget how many people live to break things and not try to fix them.

Thank you for the lyrics and song turn on though. I had never heard it before. Well, maybe I had but if so, I completely blocked it out as I am about to do again right now. Negativity doesnt work for me so I'll leave you and your Big O to your romantic(?) (seriously? HOW is that romantic?) nostalgia until its medi time.

Well, I do happen to like Bette quite a bit, ya know.

*melts* I wasnt expecting to see you around.

I should have, as I was craving oatmeal cookies like a MoFo on Sunday and.......ah eureka, I think I just figured out why I didnt feel good yesterday. *sigh*

*flings a whole lot o cuzi into your arms, showering your face with kisses and crying like a stupid girl*

Don't DOOOOOO THAT damn it! No, no, no, no, No, no, NO! How many times do I have to say to you, NOOOOOOOOOOO *poofy* *poofy*, Kid. NO poof poof!

Oh, Driftyone, I talk to you in my head all day long, don't ya know that!

What? You mean you weren't listening?

Well, that does explain a lot.

Damn I talk for hours, too!

Hmmmm...I'm pretty sure we've not yet discussed Bette there either.

    I listened to your song . Its sweet ! Rebound stuff did you say ? I've got James Vincent Mcmorrow songs on my Ipod , so I'm not totally devoid of sensitivity.With the life I've had I don't relate to breakups and failed marriages . I'm unusual.I Aloof and alone ! But I've got a phone ! Hey when I get time I'm gonna check out that shacks floor for ya. Hook up some power for you 70's music collection.Its real peaceful ! Or are you into the surf beach ? If I live there for a while I can get bored with it if the surf sucks but then I can go bush and talk to the wildlife which is cool ! I practice my cooking. I've perfected a man sandwich ! Got to be crunchy you know ! Some guys tell me I must be clever for not getting women troubles. I just go music is my high, listen to it all day on my Ipod, I'm comfortable with the modern age and gadgets ! If you could roll up gadgets , nerdom , surfing, Johney jackass and electro beats into one then thats me !
Nooooo, I did NOT say any such rebound kinda stuff, lol but thank you. I think its pretty SUH-WEET meself!

I dont know who JV Mcmorrow is, so I'll go check him out. Any particular tracks you recommend, Mr Not Exactly Insensitive ? Your comment made me laugh!

Yes! Floor! No rickety planks or shabby ancient housekeeping of the rot and hungry termite varieties please. I dunno though. Running power for 70's music could kind of end the whole 'peaceful' thing. What if I get into a Frampton or Nugent mood? *boom* There goes the danged neighborhood. Flight of the Bumblebee in a wholly inappropriate way!

I definitely do NOT surf. I watch surf. Oceans do not like me anywhere near as much as the sand does. They try and knock me down and throw stingy bitey jumpy things at me Im good for a 1/2 hour tops then I gotta go get sandy for a while. Im a water girl, but oceans...? I think we have a conflict power struggle thing going on.

Crunchy or crusty rules! Toasted, grilled bread whenever possible for all sandwiches is my motto. Especially crusty, crunchy, nerdaly, manly, hightech, jackass jammin ones!

I dunno that I trust what 'the guys' say(in fact, thats almost a guaranteed way to make one eyebrow shoot into my hairline and the other to droop low enough to become a partial mustache) and I sure dont need to hear about women troubles caused or narrowly avoided cuz...yeah. lol Im a girl and I WILL point out exactly how said male(s) caused his part of the deal while he blusters and tarnishes his pristine halo. Yep!

    This old dark machine is the song name from James. I want my own cooking show, I'm going to call it Jackass cooks. Yup its 60 % crunch and 40% taste. I am a novice about womens troubles. Would you fall off your bike because of it ? You might belt the hell out of my halo ! I think we should resolve our power struggle with the sport of your choosing. The winner wears the pants and the loser gets to dance.The dance of the forbidden concupiscent ! Last danced under a star spangled Arabian night sky ! You know it would be awesome spending a night up at that mountain to shack with the stars and a good camp fire , its on my to do list
Oh wow! That song is freaking amazing!!!

Lol, I dunno if public TV is ready for you yet. You really are to clever for your own good, but honestly..........Im surprised there isnt such a show yet. Kitchen nightmares and some of the contest ones come the closest I guess. You do love your drama!

I make it a habit not to inquire about the women in mens lives around here. Hell most of em are already lying about everything anyway. Why bother? I just enjoy folks for their good points and the ways they make me happy and share their joy and laughter as much as I can.

Even when they fall off or jump on bikes.

and especially on mountains under star filled skies! Nice fire is just a deliciously superb bonus

HA! You've been UNsecretly addicted to The young & restless reruns as long as Ive known you. years AGO my ass!

Well, that and hair salons

That is exactly why soap operas were formed. Like 60 years ago. lol now its the hubbies who stay home and play on the internet by watching porn and soaps while the ladies go to work. I should have been born a dude so Id like either one.

Nah, Ill keep my common sense and estrogen.

Hey, ovulating is serious business. It can get dangerous those biological needs. Pics dont do the trick for me but they did distract me unblocking all those X's just to see me.

Next month Ill just use you instead.

    O'kay I shall get back to my ironing then wearing the apron with boob prints. I'm so not in the mood to put sexy underwear on for you ! Its uncomfortable too, I much prefer tracky dacks. You'd better park the car in the garage , the door space ain't wide enough for me !
Lololol

I thought the boob apron was reserved for special occasions! Do ya talk to yours like I do mine? Boobs not aprons.

My apron has cans of Miller High Life all over it so we are not on speaking terms. The trade off of having lived with a drunk for several years is plenty of alcohol themed merchandise of poor quality but plenty of shine. Kinda like the dude himself.

Boobs rarely answer back for whatever reason. They do get jealous and sensitive though, so maybe they are just missish when talked to.

Lol I'll widen the door frames promptly. Engorgement seems to be trending today and we cant have you risk damage to your beloved trackies!!!! COmfort counts. Pretties have come a long way. Lace stuff used to be stiff and scratchy which is why I favored satin and silk more solid things, but now, so much stuff is soft cotton lace and blends not stiff nylon lace so.....Yeah, suck it up and put on your silk boxed honey. Open fly no buttons of course. Its fun to blow breaths at teh fly when you sashay past.

A cool soft and steady stream or a warm short puff. Variety is the spice of life.

Heya Molly!

OMG do you ever have a soundtrack!

You have always put up amazing songs on so many of your posts. Without even thinking about it I can remember you putting up a few of my faves such as......

In your Wildest Dreams by The Moody Blues
New Girl Now by Honeymoon Suite
and
Just a Dream by Nelly!

It is such a way for us to flow through life that soundtrack we have!

Im glad you could relate to that closeness line. Not all of us get that opportunity or realize its power even when we have the physical there in our hands.

Like music, loving care sings is its own song!

    I've known/know a few drunks. Moderation is best I think. I can't lose the plot though cos I never found it ! The metal detector has icons on it like iron, pull tabs, rings but no plot, so no help there. Apart from music and a nice walk in the Aussie bush and some cooking there is fuck all else going on for me , feeding the pets is cool. Playing in the garden is okay. Having a chat with ya is cool ! Amazing how much stuff you know. What do the people who've got the plot do ? May'be they just found the right role models.I think Katy Perrie is on my case, your hot and your cold your yes and your no your in and your out, awesome song, I'm looking forward to watching the U.S golf masters. You know the greatest golf player of all time prefers tennis ! Must have had got a good hip job I say. Haven't tried poker yet. Do you play poker honey ?
Moderation is best, I agree. Ive spent enough time minding and tilling not only my plot but those of others, so I know quite a few of these things first hand. No lessons is learned as deeply as those gleaned first hand through those we love. My life hangs like a patchwork quilt of people I know and love that are tied together only by my care(my quilt so that makes sense) and my stitches count as much to them as they do me.

Im sorry you're bored honey. I think your metal detector is faulty, though, plots arent metal are they, they are electrical and chemical impulses not elements so maybe it works fine just not for that kind of seeking.

I know you do try to keep yourself busy and productive when you can as when you run out of things to do..........lol the trouble starts

I love your cooking and tomato plants they are big and bushy from the tops I saw. I was hugely impressed with em anyway. Prolly cuz I am like the black widow of greenery and gardening. If it exists and has chlorophyll, I can kill it just by looking at it. I think they detect my strong love of chlorine bleach for laundry and cleaning and my clean strong bleachy scent withers them to their roots. Yeah, my little chit chatter, lol you are something else, but I wouldnt change it for the world. Well, except when you stress Bella out cuz Im sitting on my kitchen counter at 1 in the morning.

I like card games. Spades, WAR and 21 are my faves. Poker and gin rummy I like to play, but the problem is........I cant retain the rules and hands very well for any of them because I dont play them hardly at all so each time I play, I have to relearn everything all over again each and every time. I wasnt kidding when I said I dont retain facts well. Feeling? Yeah!!! Hell yeah! Facts and rules and formulas that dont equate to people that I can tie them to? Not a chance. Ive tried, Ive failed, I dont worry about it and let it go when it isnt needed anyway.

Im patient as hell, so relearning the same things over and over again is fine by me. Its like learning something new each and every time. Guaranteed.

Who is the greatest golfer and lol why are you monitoring his hips? Im not a big tennis fan(well I loved it on my Atari back in 1980) though I played a bit when I was about 10. Had my own raquet and everything. My mom played a bit and so did her Bf who got her into it. My poor hand eye coordination made for some interesting lack of lobs, lemme tell ya. Especially compared to my little brother who was a damn good ball player with amazing vision and H2E coord. I guess I got the personality He got the mad skills!
