Shawna Posted September 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 Thanks, Phil! I added the second two, the first two are already on the list. It occurs to me, Phil, that you have teenage kids. Ask them what artists they listen to that have songs with songplaces in them... we need some current artists to put up.

Dappled Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 This is maybe a little obscure! Bjuröklubb is a place in northern Sweden. Laleh is a very popular singer here and this is one of her most popular songs. Bjurö Klubb I was out on Bjuröklubb and I looked at the beach And the waves were crawling and I waded into the night Oh yes, I was a winner around water Oh yes, I was a winner Oh, I promise, guess what I found along the water A blue whale has raged around the beaches, he said he knew me He said: I have seen you when you were walking Every night you're thinking out loud and waving arms It said: I am a blue whale, I can take you from here From your deserted island, from your paper and pencils You are a loser, but you can hide in my mouth A human is not heavy to carry For what will become of you What will become of you, hey Yes, what will become of me But what will become of you It said: What will become of you, hey Yes, what will become of me But what should you be But what should you be But what should you be But what should you be Yes, what will become of me I said: If you eat me up I'll get my brothers And I'll tell, tell-tell on you from death And I'll write letters to your near and dear And say that you are fooling people that are sometimes sad That you are fooling people that are sometimes sad And they fool people that are, that are, that are, that are, I am already a winner What will become of you What will become of you, hey Yes, what will become of me But what will become of you It said: What will become of you, hey Yes, what will become of me But what should you be But what should you be But what should you be But what should you be Yes, what will become of me I said, Blue Whale Oh oh, we are already free Oh oh, we are saved and free What will become of you What will become of you, hey Yes, what will become of me But what will become of you It said: What will become of you, hey Yes, what will become of me But what should you be But what should you be But what should you be But what should you be Yes, what will become of me I said, I'm out on Bjuröklubb and I look at the beach And the waves are crawling and I wade into the night Oh yes, I'm a winner around the water A winner Already a winner What will become of you What will become of you What will become of you What will become of me A winner A winner It is the winner Winner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dappled Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 Russian Hill - Jellyfish (Russian Hill is in San Fransisco) I dreamt about a tranquil Sunday drive A sensory lullaby We trade the comics, cartoons, and magazines For pistons and gasoline We see the road from the bedside Parked under the sunshine We feel the warmth of the engine so we climb inside And take it to the motorway Watch the clouds turn into faces it's fun to play Shift the gears for years and age a single day Until we spill onto Russian Hill Past cathedrals filled with God's favorite guests Dirty hands feel clean when dressed in their Sunday best Treeline village oh so heavenly Cross a bridge of gold to landscapes of juniper Only Eden is for millionaires Watch the clouds turn into faces its fun to play Shift the gears for years and age a single day Until we spill onto Russian Hill I'm pulling through the last stoplight We head home past the shoreline And through the rear view mirror it all melts away 'Til we're helpless Watch the clouds turn into faces its fun to play (We're hopeless) We shift the gears for years and age a single day (It fades away) For like curtains close this sunset matinee A dream fulfilled on Russian Hill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
