Costellogirl75 Posted June 18, 2004 Report Share Posted June 18, 2004 Two questions have I: 1) Who sings "Just remember I love you and it will be all right?" from the 70s 2) How does one go about rating a post? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobo Posted June 18, 2004 Report Share Posted June 18, 2004 Hey there At the bottom of the page, you can see a graphic which says Extra Information. There's a pull-down box there which says "Rate this thread" and you can choose a number of stars (between one and five) which you can rate with. It's not a precise scale and is all relative, but it works quite nicely in terms of grading opinion. I don't know what the title of the song is that you're looking for, though, sorry.. I'll keep on the lookout. Love and mercy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Costellogirl75 Posted June 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2004 Thank you Bobo. I have rated two posts already, and I found that it is Firefall who sings the song I was looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catherine Posted June 18, 2004 Report Share Posted June 18, 2004 Good tune from the 70's. You're right, the song is "Just Remember I love You" and the band is Firefall, who had another good tune, "Strange Way" Didn't I hear you cry this morning, didn't I feel you weep? Teardrops flowin? down on me, like rivers in my sleep. And in my dream of laughter, you came creepin' with your fears. Telling me your sorrows, in the tracings of your tears. That?s a strange way to tell me you love me When your sorrow is all I can see If you just want to cry to somebody, don?t cry to me, no Don?t cry to me, no Didn?t I hear your voice this morning, didn?t you call my name? I heard you whisper softly, but the words were never plain. And in your dream of darkness, I came shinin? like the sun. Waiting for the laughter, but the laughter never comes. That's a strange way to tell me you love me When your sorrow is all I can see If you just want to cry to somebody, dont cry to me, no Dont cry to me, no Didn't you feel alone this morning, didn't you need a friend? And in your darkest hour, you came runnin? back again That's a strange way to tell me you love me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuzikTyme Posted June 18, 2004 Report Share Posted June 18, 2004 Great band, Firefall. When I think of them this song comes to mind: -Cinderella- Last December I met a girl She took a likin' to me Said she loved me But she didn't know the meaning of the word She imagined love to be grand Me holdin' her hand and Whisperin' sweet things and Cooin' softly like a song bird Then one mornin' she came to me With a tear in her eye and a Sigh on her breath Lord she said "Hon I'm heavy with child" I said "god damn girl can't you see That I'm breakin'my back Just tryin' to keep my head above water And it's turnin' me wild" Cinderella can't you see Don't want your company You better leave this mornin' leave today Take your love and your child away Rockin' chair on the front porch I'm thinkin' about all the things that I did As a young man Now that I'm old I remember her and the boy Did he have all the toys and the joys That a young man should have Before he gets too old Cinderella couldn't you see Didn't want your company Shoulda left that mornin' left that day Took your love and your child away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatleant Posted June 18, 2004 Report Share Posted June 18, 2004 Good tune from the 70's. You're right, the song is "Just Remember I love You" and the band is Firefall, who had another good tune, "Strange Way" Right on about "Strange Way." I consider that tune an essential part of the 70's music. I never had the original album (Firefall-Elan) but have the tune on a Time-Life compilation (just so you know where I'm going with this ... I can't stand single edits of songs when they cut the time). On that CD, the song fades during the outro rather quickly and assumed, it was edited (I've recently checked and found that the original is the same length) and therefore, bought the 'Essentials' CD. I've mentioned this before that beware of those 'Essentials' releases for most (if not all) are the 'single' releases. The version of 'Strange Way' on that CD is more than a minute short of the original AND has a different ending which IMO, somewhat ruins the tune. Okay, just a ramblin' again ... :: Ant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuzikTyme Posted June 18, 2004 Report Share Posted June 18, 2004 I don't remember hearing that version Ant. The version I came to know built up a strong climax and ended with a warbling flute. Ok you guys across the pond, I know this post is open like a book but go easy. :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatleant Posted June 18, 2004 Report Share Posted June 18, 2004 I don't remember hearing that version Ant. The version I came to know built up a strong climax and ended with a warbling flute. You described the 'single' version which is on the essentials. Funny thing is, I've never heard that version before so all this time, the (radio) stations up here were playing the original (well, whenever I was listening). The original version is like 4:40 and single version close to 3:30 On the same subject but different band ... I've mentioned this a few times before (other sites) that one of the most brutal single edits is on The Knack's "My Sharona." Berton's 1:30 middle (guitar) solo in the original version of "My Sharona" is like ecstasy ... and my favourite solo. The single version cuts most of it out. :guitar: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuzikTyme Posted June 18, 2004 Report Share Posted June 18, 2004 You're probably a lot like me Ant. If I hear an extended, original version after the single version then the single will never do again. It can be a very subtle extension but it seems to make the song whole and unfinished if not played as originally intended. Radio has been known to really butcher songs so that a lot of people never hear the best parts in them unless of course they buy the album.
