Stand back and grab your noses, because I’m about to unload some stinky cheese - consider yourself warned:
Pilot of the Airwaves, Charlie Dorr. Sung by some lonely chick to some DJ she has the hots for.
Pilot of the Airwaves, here is my request.
You don’t have to play it but I hope you do your best
I’ve been listening to your show on the radio, and you seem like a friend to me.
If you dare go further, I will remind you of a song so horrible that, even though it peaked #3 on the American pop charts more than 20 years ago, people still shudder with remembered pain upon being reminded of it’s existence: the abominable I’ve Never been to Me by Charlene.
Consider these deathless lyrics:
Oh, I’ve been to Nice and the Isle of Greece while I’ve sipped champagne on a yacht
I’ve moved like Harlowe in Monte Carlo and showed 'em what I’ve got
I’ve been undressed by kings and I’ve seen some things that a woman ain’t supposed to see
I’ve been to paradise, but I’ve never been to me.
and
Sometimes I’ve been to crying for unborn children that might have made me complete
But I took the sweet life, I never knew I’d be bitter from the sweet
I’ve spent my life exploring the subtle whoring that costs too much to be free.
Love that “subtle whoring” bit. :rolleyes:
If you’re really into suffering, this link not only provides you with the entire lyrics but a MIDI version of the song as well. Enjoy!
What the heck was that song that said something about the guy refusing to get together with the girl because “my love my life my family is the seeeeaaaa…” Damn that’s a cheesy song.
Brandy (You’re a fine girl) performed by Looking Glass
lyrics by Elliot Lurie
There’s a port on a western bay
and it serves a hundred ships a day
Lonely sailors pass the time away
and talk about their homes.
etc.
etc.
(chorus)
The sailor said Brandy, you’re a fine girl.
What a good wife you would be.
But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea.
etc
etc.
At night when the bars close down
Brandy walks through a silent town
and loves a man who is not around.
She still can hear him say.
(chorus)
Actually Green Bean I didn’t think it was that bad of a tune. Its got a nice rhythm and at least the lyrics have some meaning.
Whether or not you agree with the idea of a person being honest enough to not string another along with false hope of a relationship that will never be.
We can’t all like classics such as:
"I ain’t gonna bump NO MORE with no big fat woman.
“Everybody have fun tonight…everybody wang chung tonight.”
and don’t forget the hit
"Rock the Boat, don’t rock the boat baby…
" " don’t tip the boat over.
Our love is like a ship on the ocean.
We’ve been sailing with a cargo full of love and devotion."
I have to excuse my self now…
t-keela shags his ass to the toilet…gonna, uuh…uhh… goodbye lunch.
and to think, we haven’t really started in on country music yet.
