If you've ever read the IYT Music board, you've wasted you're time. Much of it is idiotic name calling, flame wars and very little about music. I have read it for probably a couple of years and don't think I've learned a single thing, although like I said I wasted a lot of time. So when I started this board I tried to come up something to prevent that. My idea was to discuss one topic at a time and cover that in depth. It's become apparent to me that isn't the way to go about it. I still like the idea of covering topics in depth but by choosing and limiting them, it stifled the discussion instead of focusing it. So without further discussions about what we discuss it's time to open up the boards.
A little side note-As I said I didn't want this to end up like IYT, well this isn't IYT and the players here are nicer, more considerate and I don't think I should have worried about it.
MEA CULPA
written by Brian Eno & David Byrne
VOICE: Inflamed caller and smooth politician replying,
both unidentified. Radio call-in show, New York, July 1979.
What're you saying? He said "I'm sorry, I committed a sin, I made a mistake. I asked (?????) to forgive me... please forgive me." He said "Mea Culpa," can you put it better? "I'm saying I'm sorry, I made a mistake, I made... I committed a sin, I made a mistake. And I'm never gonna do it again, I never did it before and I'm never gonna do it again."
From David's inexhuatable database of lyrics may I request one more: From Cabaret the song "If You Could See Her Through My Eyes" (was sung my Joel Grey in the old movie.
Joyce Chittick---If You Could See Her Through My Eyes
EMCEE:
I know what you're thinking
You wonder why I chose her
Out of all the ladies in the world
That's just a first impression
What good's a first impression?
If you knew her like I do
It would change your point of view
If you could see her through my eyes
You wouldn't wonder at all
If you could see her through my eyes
I guarantee you would fall (like I did)
When we're in public together
I hear society moan
But if they could see her through my eyes
Maybe they'd leave us alone
(There you are, my Liebling. Your favorite!)
How can I speak of her virtues?
I don't know where to begin
She's clever, she's smart, she reads music
She doesn't smoke or drink gin (like I do)
Yet, when we're walking together
They sneer if I'm holding her hand
But if they could see her through my eyes
Maybe they'd all understand
Why can't they leave us alone?
Meine Damen und Herren, Mesdames et Messieurs
Ladies and Gentlemen
Is it a crime to fall in love?
Can we ever tell where the heart truly leads us?
All we are asking is eine bisschen Verständnis -
A little understanding -
Why can't the world 'leben und leben lassen'?
'Live and let live...'
I understand your objection
I grant you the problem's not small
But if you could see her through my eyes
She wouldn't look Jewish at all
this song was one of the most controversial. It is the reaction to Fraulein Schneider and Herr Schultz's relationship (to a different couple in the movie). At the end, when the Emcee says, "She wouldn't look Jewish at all," some took that as an anti-Semitism remark. I never did! I understood what was trying to be conveyed. The gorilla is a symbol of the Jew-- the audience laughs at first, but then they realize the propaganda they're supporting. The Emcee is saying that he loves her no matter what, and he does not see her as just being Jewish-- he sees her for every other quality. The song really is a kick in the ass. In the 60's, they briefly changed the ending to "meeskite," because of the outrage. Yet, not many know what the hell that is, and Joel Grey just kept slipping the original line in anyway. Now that a lot of the shame of the Holocaust has lifted and it's being more acknowledged, the lyrics remain true to the original. Plus, the song holds true to all prejudices, which obviously still run rampant.
(From the website on the play)
Yes it was very hilarious because the "girl" everyone was objecting to was a gorilla in a tutu. The last line was changed also to "different" at all on some early albums and wasn't meant to serve as a punch line..the theory being that the entire song was humorous enough on its own.
Yikes...How suicidal (or homicidal) is the person who wrote this poem?...I realize I'm way off the discussion going on now...I was reading past discussions and this just blew me away! BACK to the topic at hand.
Here are a couple lines from a songfor you my dear :)
We may be a thousand miles apart,
But I'll be with you whereever you are.
I'm already there, take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair Im the shadow on the ground.
I"m already there dont ,ake a sound Im the beat in your heart Im the moonlight shining down.
Im the whisper in the wind and I'll be there 'til the end.
im already there
Ok what song is This and Who sings it
Wish a ford and a chevy
would last ten years like they should
Before Mocrowave ovens a woman would still cook
and chop wood
This weeks topic-This will be part one of a two parter-we'll look at groups (and next week we'll look at individuals). Some suggestions off the top of my head- favorite groups or maybe split it up say favorite rock, punk, metal, disco, country, western, rap. jazz, soul, 80's, 60's, todays....English, American, Czech, Canadian..uh are there any Canadian groups? j/k, pick a country...I think it might be interesting if people would pick something their not familiar with also along with their favorites, for example I don't know anything about country but I'll try to come up with some. Please don't be limited by my suggestions either, worst bands might be fun-give a reason-and don't flame, we can disagree but we don't have to be insulting, anyways you get the idea...Top 10 lists might be a good way to put them down. How about unknown or unpopular but great bands etc.
After I get some sleep I'll work on giving some of the basic stuff such as top selling, hits etc.
Remember your posts aren't limited to the topic-anything you want to discuss about music is up for grabs.
David,your vast knowledge of music would and should indicate your teasing about the Canadian contribution to music via bands! LOL
Your words made me smile,for that I thank you! :-)
How about name a few linew in a song and then try to guess What song it is And By who

She sand Tamberine with a Silver jangle
and she must of know the words to at least a
Million tunes
What old country tune is that and by who
Ok Princes Kam KM Tell them
