edna Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 Jane, I think Brass in Pocket already made the Top Ten... I believe we can re-nominate only the songs that didn't make it... am I right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malakin Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 I just knew that at the first opportunity, when "American Pie" isn't in the Daily or Weekly Top Ten, someone would nominate it (someone wants to have a #1... ) Hey now! Actually, I didn't even check the daily top ten, and forgot it was tried before.. And all I did was open my music folder on the laptop and start paging through looking for songs.. Nothing to do with "wanting a #1". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farin Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 Bitter Sweet Symphony -- The Verve good choice I think the last time it was nominated, it got on #11. Let's see if we can push it higher... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Seeker Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 Oh, I didn't know it had been nominated before...I never look up that kind of stuff. Yes, let's hope it'll get higher; after my number one and my number two I need a number three now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonJonSurfer Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 The greatest surfing instrumental of all time, I believe, and I think RonJon agreed with me on another old thread where we were discussing "surf songs". COULD one of our talented young friends please try to find a video of it ? I see a few re-nominations. Good on you; if Build Me Up Buttercup can make #2 having missed out before, you just never know. I might give If You Leave Me Now/Chicago another try next time. Watch the old movie "Back To The Beach" just for the short clip of Dick Dale and Stevie Ray Vaughan playing Pipeline in a club owned by Connie Stevens. That movie also stars Frankie and Annette. It's a great spoof of 60's Beach Movies. Other music of note is Pee-Wee Herman singing Surfin' Bird. Guest appearances by Gilligan and the Captain, Beaver, Wally, Mrs. Cleaver (Barbara Billingsly), Don Adams, Connie Stevens (who comments to Annette that it was a shame that Annette was always the good girl, because she wasted one heck of a rack). It's a fun stupid surf/beach movie.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLD 55 Posted July 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 What a great lot of Nominations. I'll come back and make a list of them later. With the way our Tens go, you can never really pick what'll be #1 for sure. I don't believe American Pie (great song that it is) is any certainty ! We QUEEN fans might just get behind Crazy Little Thing Called Love and Tie Your Mother Down. Couple of Bowie songs there too ! It also looks like Band Of Gold will attract lots of support. Could Freda Payne be our first female #1 ? It was on b-f's Lista and I also had it on mine (I don't think I'll live long enough to nominate all of mine). Going to be verrry interesting again.

rtstuff Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 I'm back guys and gals! Wow what a past week. We have had some of the most intense electrical storms that I can remember in my life time in these parts. In fact the storms damaged my computer. It was knocked out of commission by power surges even though I have a pretty good surge protector. One morning while completeing my six mile walk with some buddies I thought I was a goner. We got caught out in the open when an electrical storm hit and lightning bounced off a power transfromer across the narrow street from us. It was the type where you here the sizling then see an intense white-purple light followed by a ground shaking explosion of thunder. Needless to say it shook up three guys. As we hot footed it back to the YMCA, the gym not the song, the heavens opened up. It is too bad we can't send you guys some rain OLD 55. I have never walked in a harder rain in all of my life. These stroms were around the clock for 48 hours. As the result we have had flash flooding. The track that I walk on got washed out in some places. The debris along the creek is piled everywhere. I even saw a few fish that didn't make it. Well that has been my life for the last week. Now on to some music. 1. The late 70's hit "Lonely Boy" by Andrew Gold. 2. Gilbert O'Sullivan's "Alone Again Naturally" rtstuff I'm all shook up, but still rockin out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted July 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 It's great to hear you're safe and sound Tom. It would have been a terrifying experience, having a transformer explode near you. We thank God you're still here, my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
