    Oh these are the first guys that did this?  Blondie did it too.

    I love their name.  LOVE it.  Wow this is really old garage punk.  Just love it.

    Thanks.

    Blondie used to not suck.

    Now she looks like she's been sucking down too many sugary drinks or something. 

    (Loved Blondie)






    This was her at her worst.  But she got a good stylist and looks very good again.  Older but very classy.  She does still have FACE.

    I know I have a sick mind but I always felt kind of creepy about this song.  Like he was making you think this was his girlfriend and you find out it is a six year old.  I'm sure it is not supposed to really come off that way, but that is the first thing I thought when I heard that.  Creepy.

    I found this to be a rather interesting read:

    She always reminded me of some Disney cartoon character.   I can't remember which one now.  I think she is pretty and all, but she reminds me of this weird character.  Was it Dopey of the 7 Dwarves?   I know it was really mean of me to think it.  But I think it was Dopey. 

    She's cool.  Sorry, Reeb.




    Ooops how'd THIS get in here?  This is Game of Thrones.  Ignore.  Wrong dwarf.



    Here we go.....


    DOPEY.  See the resemblance.  She is like a prettier Dopey.

    Impassioned.


    Below is a song sung by a little old merchant on the streets of some city in India on his way to work each morning.   It is a chant to God.  It speaks His name in the form of Krisna.  God is all forms.  We both know this, you and I.

    This is God pictured in the form of Pure LOVE and deep Blue.  His image is thought to be so incredibly beautiful that you are in heaven just to gaze upon it.

    That is what this little merchant is reflecting upon as he starts his day.  The magnificence of God.

    Meri Wilson's "Telephone Man"

     - -  one of my favorite "double-entendre" songs; funny and a darn good melody and rhythm! She sings well, too!

    :)

    Since I can't open so many of the tunes, this may be a duplicate:  Glen Campbell's Wichita Lineman

    LOL

    That is what I posted in the question.  I am laughing because the whole reason I posted this question was so I could listen to that song.  It's at the top if you care to hear it, Spunky.

    I am so sorry I said "duh" to you in my answer to the other day.  That was NOT directed towards YOU.  I know it sounded that way and I was too worried you were pissed to even apologize till now.

    You did not deserve that from me or anyone, for that matter. This post was edited by WM BARR . =ABSOLUTE TRASH at September 21, 2017 10:54 AM MDT

    LOL ... I am unable to open anything from YouTube at work, so I had no idea who posted what unless they typed the name of the song. 

    Not to worry - It takes more than a "DUH!" to get me pissed off.  :)

    You and Jane are my monitors.  I have my own.  If you guys are pissed off, I know I have overstepped my place on this site.

    Thanks for being you.
