Hi Old 55. I'm new.
Pennsylvania Musical Interlude:
Pleased to meet you

But what's puzzling you
is the nature of my game.
My guesses are:
Imagine: John Lennon
Johnny B. Goode: Chuck Berry
-
Find the Common Link for:
The Beatles
Arlo Guthrie
Bruce Springsteen

Ok. First of all. She has no "e" on the end of her name. It's Patti Palladin.
I was ten years old when my punk princess moved to the U.K. and recorded with Judy Nylon as "Snatch". Their single "All I Want" wasn't the only thing I wanted.
I was just out of high school when she took on this gothic look that I still drool over today.
For those of you who may have missed it, her teeth appear on the cover of Skrewdriver's album, "All Skrewed Up".
I've been all skrewed up since she left.
Give your comments on:
Cheap Trick
-
Palo Alto - California

edna,
would the answer be?
albums that the late Nicky Hopkins played piano on.

Door - In Through The Out...

I don't know why SongFacts says it's "Annie".
Someone sent in an incorrect fact and it made it past the editors.
The group consisted of 5 members and was formed in Woodstock, New York:
Robbie Robertson (guitar)
Levon Helm (vocals, drums)
Rick Danko (bass)
Richard Manuel and Garth Hudsaon (keyboards)
All were from Canada, except Helm, who was from Arkansas.
The group spent awhile backing up rockabilly lounge lizard Ronnie Hawkins before joining Bob Dylan on tour in 1966 as "The Hawks".
The fact is, the characters in the song (with it's seemingly biblical references) are people the band members ran across during their days with Hawkins.
As for who we're taking the load off, it's FANNY!
When you're pronouncing English, there's hardly a difference between ''Take a load off Annie'' and ''Take a load off Fanny'', so it's understandable that no one really knows what name is being referred to.
Here's the story about the song, straight from Levon Helms mouth. (vocals and drums for "The Band").
This is an excerpt taken from Levon Helm's autobiography:
"This Wheel's On Fire: Levon Helm And The Story Of The Band".
Taken from Page 167 of the book:
"The Weight" closed side one. We had two or three tunes, or pieces of tunes, and "The Weight" was one I would work on. Robbie had that bit about going down to Nazareth---Pennsylvania, where the Martin guitar factory is at. The song was full of our favorite characters. "Luke" was Jimmy Ray Paulman. "Young Anna Lee" was Anna Lee Williams from Turkey Scratch. "Crazy Chester" was a guy we all knew from Fayetteville who came into town on Saturdays wearing a full set of cap guns on his hips and kinda walked around town to help keep the peace, if you follow me. He was like Hopalong Cassidy, and he was a friend of the Hawks. Ronnie would always check with Crazy Chester to make sure there wasn't any trouble around town. And Chester would reassure him that everything was peaceable and not to worry, because he was on the case. Two big cap guns, he wore, plus a toupee! There were also "Carmen and the Devil", "Miss Moses", and "Fanny", a name that just seemed to fit the picture. (I believe she looked a lot like Caladonia.) We recorded the song maybe four times. We weren't really sure it was going to be on the album, but people really liked it. Rick, Richard, and I would switch the verses around among us, and we all sang the chorus: Put the load right on me! [unquote]
Here are the lyrics for the song so you can follow the character's in his quote:
I pulled into Nazareth, Was feelin' about half past dead;
I just need some place, where I can lay my head.
"Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"
He just grinned and shook my hand, and "No!", was all he said.
(Chorus:)
Take a load off Fanny, take a load for free;
Take a load off Fanny,
And (and) (and) you put the load right on me.
I picked up my bag, I went lookin' for a place to hide;
When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side.
I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, let's go downtown."
She said, "I gotta go, but muh friends can stick around."
(Chorus)
Go down, Miss Moses, there's nothin' you can say
It's just ol' Luke and, Luke's waitin' on the Judgement Day.
"Well, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?"
He said, "Do me a favor, son, won't 'cha stay an' keep Anna Lee
company?"
(Chorus)
Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog.
He said, "I will fix your rags, if you'll take Jack, my dog."
I said, "Wait a minute, Chester, you know I'm a peaceful man."
He said, "That's okay, boy, won't you feed 'im when you can."
(Chorus)
Catch a Cannonball, now, to take me down the line
My bag is sinkin' low and I do believe it's time.
To get back to Miss Fanny, you know she's the only one.
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone.
(Chorus)

The song playing in the HP ad titled "Digital Crime Fighters" where a man is arrested with a cursor and aired in 2003 is called:
"Yumeji's Theme" and was recorded by Shigeru Umebayashi for the motion picture soundtrack "In The Mood For Love" released in the year 2000.
You can listen to a sound clip here:
This song clip is track #1 on the soundtrack. I listened to the clip and watched the commercial. The song is the same song but the commercial sounds like it has a little more ummph to it.
It's possible the sound clip is of the beginning of the song and the commercial uses a different part of the song where the momentum increases.
The soundtrack also offers:
Track #20. Yumeji's Theme/Li-Zhen's Dialogue
There is also an import available of the soundtrack which has a total of 43 tracks on the CD compared to 21 tracks on the other. That link is here:
This import offers:
Track #1. Yumejis Theme
Track #22. A Yumenjis Theme
Track #41. Yumejis Theme (Extended Version)

The only thing I know about the song is that it was released on their 2004 album release "Sex, Love and Rock 'n' Roll".
My favorite Social Distortion song is "Ball And Chain". What a great song! :guitar:
Here's a link to Social Distortion's official website:

2nd time today I'm making the same suggestion.
If you're doing a slideshow or a video, you've got to consider "Times Of Your Life" by Paul Anka. It was adapted from a kodak jingle, has really nice music and the lyrics are as follows:
Times Of Your Life
-Artist: Paul Anka
-peak Billboard position # 7 in 1975-76
-Words and Music by William M. Lane and Roger S. Nichols
-tune adapted from a Kodak jingle
Good morning, yesterday
You wake up and time has slipped away
And suddenly it's hard to find
The memories you left behind
Remember, do you remember?
The laughter and the tears
The shadows of misty yesteryears
The good times and the bad you've seen
And all the others in between
Remember, do you remember
The times of your life? (do you remember?)
Reach out for the joy and the sorrow
Put them away in your mind
The memories are time that you borrow
To spend when you get to tomorrow
Here comes the setting sun (the setting sun)
The seasons are passing one by one
So gather moments while you may
Collect the dreams you dream today
Remember, will you remember
The times of your life?
Gather moments while you may
Collect the dreams you dream today
Remember, will you remember
The times of your life?
Of your life
Of your life
Do you remember, baby
Do you remember the times of your life?
FADE
Do you remember, baby
Do you remember the times of your life?
