my upstairs neighbor is playing Concrete Blonde's "Joey" (aka "fuckerpants' theme song") WAY too loud right now.
that being said, what are your LC theme songs?
i'll start! v1n*c0g*nitO's is:
"I'm too Sexy" by Right Said Fred
with just a sprinkling of Mill Vanilli's "Girl You Know It's True" for flavor!

Mon, September 6, 2004 - 1:54 PMbut that's not really an *LC* theme song. how 'bout "Love Bites" from Def Leppard? or that new Kelly Clarkson song??

Re: theme songs

Superstar
Recorded by: The Carpenters
From the 1971 album, Carpenters
Written by: L. Russel and B. Bramlett
Long ago, and, oh so far away,
I fell in love with you, before the second show.
Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear,
But you're not really here
It's just the radio
Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby.
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby.
I love you, I really do.
Loneliness is such a sad affair
And I can hardly wait to be with you again.
What to say, to make you come again? (Baby)
Come back to me again (baby)
And play your sad guitar.
Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby.
I love you, I really do
Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby.
I love you, I really do -

Madame's Theme Song
Tue, September 7, 2004 - 7:44 PMSorry Entertainer
by Daniel Johnston
Where the wind blows
That's where I go
Where the moon is
That's where I am
And when I just
Have a problem
Always hoping the wind will blow me away again
I'm a loner
I'm a sorry entertainer
I'm a loner
I'm a sorry entertainer
Drove those demons
Out of my head
With an organ and a pencil full of lead
And when I'm dead
I'd like to have it said
He drove those demons out of his head
I'm a loner
I'm a sorry entertainer
I'm a loner
I'm a sorry entertainer
Now the curtain parts the stage
It's the dawn of a new and exciting age
And I'm free
Free at last
Like a monkey out of its cage
I'm a loner
I'm a sorry entertainer
I'm a loner
I'm a sorry entertainer

for over the top drama, nothing beats It Must Be Him by Vicki Carr
Tue, September 7, 2004 - 9:46 PMtell myself what's done is done
I tell myself don't be a fool
Play the field have a lot of fun
It's easy when you play it cool
I tell myself don't be a chump
Who cares let him stay away
That's when the phone rings
And I jump
And as I grab the phone I pray
Let it please be him
Oh dear God
It must be him
It must be him
Or I shall die
Or I shall die
Oh hello, hello,
My dear God, it must be him
But it's not him and then I die
That's when I die
After a while
I'm myself again
I pick the pieces off the floor
Put my heart on the shelf again
He'll never hurt me anymore
I'm not a puppet on a string
I'll find somebody else someday
Thats when the phone rings
And once again I start to pray
Let it please be him
Oh, dear God,
It must be him
It must be him
Or I shall die
Or I shall die
Oh, hello, hello, my dear God
It must be him
But it's not him
And then I die
That's when I die
Let it please be him
My dear God, it must be him
Or I shall die
Or I shall die
I do quite a mean version of this at Kareoke, if I do say so myself. -

REAL
Copyright 2003 Stefania/ Lovecursed
Cold killer, soul stealer
I never knew you didnt care
Last dance, last chance
When i was down you weren't there
One day I'll hide away
From all the scary things that people do
I loved you, through and through
but you would not admit the same
I cry, and you lie
I think that is your favorite game
One day I'll hide away
From all the scary things that people do
Goodbye, my my
I guess it never meant a thing
Insane, and your to blame
is this really happening
One day I'll hide away
From all the scary things that people
do you like to kill
everything around you that is real
Cold killer, soul stealer
Cold killer, soul stealer
Cold killer, soul stealer....

Re: Real
Wed, September 8, 2004 - 9:23 AMAlso I said it before and I'll say it again:
Hallelujah by Buckley/Cohen
listen to Jeff Buckley heeeeeere
www.atomicwalrus.net/daedalu...ujah.mp3
I heard there was a secret chord
that David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
Well it goes like this :
The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrough ya
She tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Baby I've been here before
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew ya
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
And love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
There was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that to me do ya
But remember when I moved in you
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
Well, maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at somebody who outdrew ya
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah... -

(Jagger-Richards, 1973)
Angie, Angie
When will those clouds all disappear?
Angie, Angie
Where will it lead us from here?
With no loving in our souls
And no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, Angie
You can't say we never tried
Angie, You're beautiful
But ain't it time we said goodbye
Angie, I still love you
Remember all those nights we cried?
All the dreams we held so close
Seemed to all go up in smoke
Let me whisper in your ear
Angie, Angie
Where will it lead us from here?
Angie, don't weep
All your kisses still taste sweet
I hate that sadness in your eyes
But Angie, Angie
Ain't it time we said goodbye?
With no loving in our souls
And no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, I still love you, baby
Everywhere I look I see your eyes
There ain't a woman that comes close to you
Come on baby dry your eyes
But Angie, Angie
Ain't it good to be alive?
Angie, Angie
They can say we never tried

She was very nice.. even invited me to her wedding.
Bumped into her in a cycling store recently. She didn't recognize me, had to introduce myself. Then I had to meet her husband.
"Angie... Annnnnngiee..." heh.
