Fav. songs to accompany lurvvvvvvv

[Lion of Lions]

1. Tim Buckley's Blue Melody


I choose this song for the divine voice and music


Well I was born a blue melody
A little song my mama sang to me
It was a blue melody
Such a blue
You've never seen

There aint no wealth
That can buy my pride
There aint no pain
That can cleanse my soul
No just a blue melody
Sailing far away from me

One summer mornin'
I was raised
But I dont know
One summer morning
I was left
But I don't know
One summer morning
So all alone

Late in evening
Ill sing in your dreaming
Down from the mountain
Along with the breezes
So close inside
Love grew smiles

So if you hear that blue melody
Wont you please send it home to me
Its just my
Blue melody

2. Robert Wyatt's Alifib

I choose this song for its extraordinary atmosphere and the great couplet
I can't forsake you or
Forsqueak you!

Not nit not nit no not
Nit nit folly bololey
Alifib my larder
Alifib my larder
I can't forsake you or
Forsqueak you
Alifib my larder
Alifib my larder
Confiscate or make you
Late you you
Alifib my larder Alifib my larder
Not nit not nit no not
Nit nit folly bololy
Burlybunch, the water mole
Hellyplop and fingerhole
Not a wossit bundy, see ?
For jangle and bojangle
Trip trip
Pip pippy pippy pip pip landerim
Alifib my larder
Alifib my larder

if you don't know these two tracks I would be very interested in your views if you find them. You may think the Wyatt lyrics are nursery but once you hear them in his unique voice..

if you use these tracks as a lurvvvvvvvv accompaniment please feel very free to spare me all the details.

Trust you to find the obscurest of the obscure.... I just watched Roberts vid but it didn't do it for me
My all time fave is this ( I will spare you the details )

Eloquent, I soon retire
To nothing else I may aspire
After I’ve made love to you

In the dark I see you glisten
To your breath I lay and listen
After I’ve made love to you

In your arms I’m softly resting
Memories of you undressing
And your lips my final blessing
I never knew
The embrace that I’d been lacking
Has been found with kisses smacking
And two bodies there attacking
I and you

Baby why don’t we feel guilty
Why’s it seem we’re doing right
When we’re doing something filthy
In a rented room tonight

I think it’s cuz we love the now
We love forever love, and how
And my life’s your love, anyway
And your life’s my love, everyday

You are mine o now forever
Think of you always wherever
After I’ve made love to you
After I’ve made love to you

nice, Tinds! my first listen and I will give it more tomoz.

I doubt you found Robert Wyatt doing Alifib, not on youtube afaik. you may have heard a quaint cover.

here's Robert doing Elvis Costello's shipbuilding http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6T9qp9X ... L&index=72 and here's the man in interview. he is so loveable (if not quite as goo9d-looking as Tim Buckley!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSaqKQyQfmg

[tinderella]

A really interesting guy... I never heard of him before. I loved the way he said there are still words that do not exist yet.... someone should point him in the direction of this forum

I will check out more of his stuff. Thanks

Eskimo, you are so cool, you are frozen.

I have received many private messages asking me if virgins are allowed to post to this thread.




I am delighted to inform you that Tinds and I, Sir Loin (Tinder is the Knight) have agreed that this will be permissible, providing that such hopeless and inadequate failure type peoples can at least healthily fantasise what it would be like to make sweet sweet lurvvvvvvvvvv to musical accompaniment (please note, to answer another oft-asked question, the music needn't be live and recordings will suffice. I am humbly aware that not everyone can even fit an orchestra in the bedroom, and my heart goes out to such poor losers).




I hope that my "post" satisfies many virgins and does not frighten them away (especially by its ever-increasing length).

... L of L and Tinders.. I can't have you thinking you're the only lovers around here.. (although, um, you might try checking some of the other threads in these parts).. Anyway, here's me singing my little good night song to Georges as he goes to sleep on my lap..

.. it's not my best effort, but I do get the harmony working here and there.. and anyway.. Georges likes it..

[tinderella]

Violet, if that is truly you, you are not only beautiful but really can sing well in perfect harmony. If our Lion sees this , he will want to be on his knees again, but don't tell George.

I really must do my homework on this Forum and read some more threads. I am only here a year and don't know that many characters so I tend to play safe and stick around the ones i know

Have a brilliant weekend

[Cate]

Eskimo thanks for posting the link for the Robert Wyatt song. Wow - my eyes are glossy now, that was so beautiful. I thought that he was singing I'll be my lover until I read the lyrics - lauder mines cool. His lover is cold so I guess it's fine that I hear I'll be my lover.

These are mine although I always preferred the live version performed by my somebody at home.

on my husbands sheet it says tear - but I looked it up and it can also mean a sweet wine, which is sometimes how a memory can feel - like a tear and like a sweet wine.

[Lion of Lions]

Eskimo, I missed the link you posted for Robert Wyatt! Cate, you can probably now understand why I put this as one of the best ever songs for lurvvvvvv. you wouldn't think so from the posted lyrics. He is a VERY special singer. I have adored him since Soft Machine days, early experimental jazz rock, through his falling out of a window then wheelchair days, and apart from brilliant lines like
"I won't forsake you
or forsqueak you"

I most like his political songwriting
try this, for example

Alliance

There is a kind of compromise you are master of
Your endless gentle nudging left us polarised
You're proud of being middle class (meaning upper class)
You say you're self sufficient (but you don't dig your own coal)
I think that what you're frightened of more than anything
is knowing you need workers more than they need you
"A herd of independent minds" Chomsky got it right
Joggling into battle waving old school ties

now go find and listen or download, hear his unique voice, and report to my study by close of play or there will be trouble..

btw some of you may know Elvis Costello's "Shipbuilding", here's Bobby live

if that's you, then you and the song are beautiful

if it's not you, then someone else and the song are beautiful.

not exactly dostoevsky! please no more - spare us.

[Cate]

I wonder Geoffrey - has anyone ever held you down and tickled you until you were sure you were going to pee yourself - it might be good for you.

ummm violet - do you have a spare hand and knee by any chance

Geoffrey, have you listened to the song yet or are you content to talk from your traditional stirring place in the south east corner of a town called Ignorance? I blow raspberries at people who donate their own pretend points to the poster and then try to puff them down, as you did with this add-on "and for its literary merit, i presume", don't presume, 'cos you are no good at it.

Cate, if you are still around can you listen to this song so I can have the counterbalance to Geoffrey's self-basting wank opinion.

Blue Melody will always be wonderful, Geoffrey you will always be a tosser. "Spare us", hmmm,I see you continue to use the imaginary plural when you are not not brave enough to stand by your own view.

One other t'ing, Geoffrey. Don't get too excited that I will play with you today as it's work from now on and only the occasional visit here where I will pay attention to people who are not into sabotage, or trolls on form. I love talented trolls but you are just not on form these days. I'm not certain that you are yet on the inevitable and irreversible decline in your writing or wit and I am quite willing to allow for the possibility that your trolling is just going through a poor patch.

However, you do have a public duty to entertain and I wonder if you have ever thought of trying humour for a change to your rather predictable style?

Sorry, I can't spare you any more of my time but I have inside information that tomorrow is coming some time later this week and I will see you then.
