I did RonJon. You talked me into it !

I must dig out my old 45 R.P.M. records one day.

I have an Extended Play withGod Only Knows,Wouldn't It Be Nice,Hawaii and Let's Go Away For Awhile (an instrumental). Too good to be sitting in a box in the garage !

We must get around to having that shed built, so we can find out just what IS in the garage besides our's and our son's cars, tools, + heaps of stuff that's been stored there for years.

- In My Life has now easily won both its Top Ten and Ultimate Top Ten Rounds. Is there any song that can stop it from winning the final round (which is coming very soon)?

- Another song by The Who missed out by just a few points. I feel guilty for not voting for it :crazy:

so that means that in the ULTIMATE Top Ten nominations (that's 50 songs) we have exactly one (1) song that is NOT from either the 60's or the 70's...

And it's YOURS. I will campaign anyway...

VOTE for Alive, Vote for ALIVE!!

Pearl Jam for President!

Be a rebel... vote 90's!!

just for those, that haven't heard "Alive" yet (I hope there are only a few of you), here's an unplugged version:

Alive (Unplugged) ~ Pearl Jam

and there were some remarks that one can't understand Eddie Vedder's lyrics:

Alive

Son, she said, have I got a little story for you

What you thought was your daddy was nothin but a...

While you were sittin home alone at age thirteen

Your real daddy was dyin, sorry you didnt see him, but Im glad we talked...

Oh i, oh, Im still alive

Hey, i, i, oh, Im still alive

Hey i, oh, Im still alive

Hey...oh...

Oh, she walks slowly, across a young mans room

She said Im ready...for you

I cant remember anything to this very day

cept the look, the look...

Oh, you know where, now I cant see, I just stare...

I, Im still alive

Hey i, but, Im still alive

Hey i, boy, Im still alive

Hey i, i, i, Im still alive, yeah

Ooh yeah...yeah yeah yeah...oh...oh...

Is something wrong, she said

Well of course there is

Youre still alive, she said

Oh, and do I deserve to be

Is that the question

And if so...if so...who answers...who answers...

I, oh, Im still alive

Hey i, oh, Im still alive

Hey i, but, Im still alive

Yeah i, ooh, Im still alive

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
