Joe, I thought you would beat me to these gems:

Bruce Springsteen - Out In The Street

I work five days a week girl
Loading crates down on the dock
I take my hard earned money
And meet my girl down on the block
And Monday when the foreman calls time
I've already got Friday on my mind

When that whistle blows
Girl, I'm down the street
I'm home, I'm out of my work clothes....

Bruce Springsteen - All That Heaven Will Allow

Say hey there mister bouncer
now all I wanna do is dance
But I swear I left my wallet
back home in my workin' pants
C'mon Slim slip me in man
I'll make it up to you somehow
I can't be late I got a date
with all that heaven will allow


Out In The Street is a live favourite though. Bruce at his best.....

Tie one on - Aberfeldy
Until the night - Billy Joel
Lets dance - Chris Rea
I fall to pieces - Yearwood/Neville

Joe
Linlithgow

#3 Norrie - too many choices! All that heaven would allow would be great.


Joe

One for my husband
David Gray Sail Away
though the sailing season is soon over. He's had a good innings this summer.

Mustn't forget these ones for anyone listening on a more than casual basis (as if, captain obvious):
T Rex GET IT ON
or
The Carpenters Yesterday Once More

It's not my only pastime. See, once I'm done with the banality of my mediocre daytime existence, there's always bathtime to liven things up:
Cockney Rejects I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles

followed closely by:
The Pretenders I Go To Sleep

then, if I'm lucky:
Crowded House Don't Dream It's Over

If someone had written a song about sewing, painting, decorating, making jewelery, cooking, playing netball, spending time with friends and family, taking the dog for walks and annoying strangers on the internets, I'd have asked for that, too.

I have the perfect song for Thursday's theme! I also had the perfect song for Wednesday's theme, but let's not go there.......


THURSDAY


Well the room is full, it's a Friday night

We all want to hear "Louie Louie"

It's been a long, hard day and a long, hard life

And this is how we make it through it...


'Honky Tonk America' - Sammy Kershaw


PDB, BTW!

Listen to the Radio --- Tom Robinson

Drinking Song / Mario Lanza

#6 M-D, you nicked my song. I second, third, fourth etc Sail on


BTW, Do you want to buy a boat for your hubbie's Christmas?



DC (currently with two yachts, one for sale and the other for sail)

#10

Spotted any periscopes in Cellardyke harbour?



#6

Blowing bubbles in the bathtub? How?

We should be telt!

>8-D

My last one: You can do magic - Limmie & the Family Cookin'

Joe
Linlithgow

One Wild Night - Bon Jovi

It's a hot night, the natives are restless
We're sweating by the light of the moon
There's a voodoo mojo brewing at the go-go


(its no really like that, but some like to think so)


BTW, Norrie. Of that list of up and coming Rio gigs, we`re not going to any of them. My son has opted for the aforesaid Bon Jovi on Oct 8th at the Samba Drome (Sambodromo )

Looks more like a drag strip.

#14
Know what you mean, but the actual gig is just at the top end.

If they erected stands along Princes Street Gardens they could have a Sambodromo in Edinburgh.

Thursday:

Day Is Done: Nick Drake (Go on, it's only 2.29 long!)

Smoke And Strong Whiskey: Christy Moore

Don't Come The Cowboy With Me: Kirsty MacColl (After my working day, staring into a computer monitor, I go home to my highland cows, and some sanity!)

Looks stunning - I think I'll go next year.

After work,
I might stop in
At The Library (Green Day) and gather up between
Six and Seven Books (Toots and the Maytals) then I'll head home for some
Chicken Fried (Zac Brown Band), catch up on
The News (Jack Johnson) and as Glen says,
Listen to the Music on Get it On.
Then I'm off out the door and
I'm Walking (Fats Domino), and if it's December,
Walking in the Dark (The Boy Who Trapped The Sun).
Later I might do some of my Gaelic
Homework (Robben Ford) or the
Crossword (Jethro Tull) or maybe I'll watch one of my favourite films, like
Shenandoah (Van Morrison), perhaps eat a wee piece of
Chocolate (Snow Patrol). By now it's late and
I'm Going Upstairs (John Lee Hooker), but sadly without
Tom Petty to sing We're Alright For Now
Goonight baby, Unfurrow your brow
And I know I love you
We're alright for now

There's too many repeats on this show.

There's too many repeats on this show.

I second and third that

For Thursday - Down At The Twist And Shout - Mary Chapin Carpenter

American Honky-Tonk Bar Association - Garth Brooks


:o)

&±ô³Ù;°±Õ±Õ±Õ±Õ±Õ±Õ±Õ&²µ³Ù;&±ô³Ù;

Guess who?

;o)

Oh OK, Senga, you've made me look a right bore, but is that your

Real Life (Simple Minds)

or is it just a

Fantasy (Earth, Wind and Fire)

#25 - Gaie - Why did you have to burst my bubble? ;o)

I heard it through the grapevine that Tom Morton was taking my name in vain yesterday. Does he have a blog? Soon sort him oot!

;o)

#24

I had a fish called Fred once...

I had it for my tea, with a bit of lobster





and a nice Chianti (slurp, slurp, slurp)

well, all us bloggers are huge music fans, it's one of our pivital ways of relaxing after the horrors of the working day - hence our presence here: GIO has never had a better opportunity to reward our collective knowledge and dedication to the show than by playing the music we actually relax to - which on this rare occasion, is also thematic.

As youse all know, I'm a huge Jack Bruce fan.I'd like to hear:

Make Love - Jack Bruce

regardez youse

henri

# I like it.

# I don’t like it

After work I like to

DANCE WITH THE PIXIES from 2032 by GONG

What happened to 24 & 27?

Fred is of course quite correct with his observation.

However given the degree of attempted subliminal flattery American Idiot makes my day!

After work ...

'Dance with the Pixies' ... Gong

Don'y knock it till you've tried it ... eh Fred?

After work................ I like to dream................O WOT A DREAM from BANANAMOUR by KEVIN AYERS

Or

I like to sit on the beach with CLARENCE IN WONDERLAND then go UNDERWATER for THE OYSTER AND THE FLYING FISH from SHOOTING AT THE MOON by KEVIN AYERS

After Work - starts to look a bit like my summer playlist, which definitely has a 'winding down in the evening' thing going on.

* Miss Jane/Jane and Barton/Opus III - It's a Fine Day
3 different variants of essentially the same track, listed as 3 separate artists

* Marillion - Garden Party
Maybe a wee bit too long (and a big bit too cynical)

* Lennon - I'm Stepping Out

QI Captain Obvious Klaxon for:
* Van Morrison - Moondance

*Big* second to MfS's
* Nick Drake - When the Day is Done
Actually, any Nick Drake would do - it's all mellow and after work-y

AFTER THE SHOW from DIDN’T FEEL LONELY TILL I THOUGHT OF YOU by KEVIN AYERS

I'll absolutely SECOND, THIRD, FOURTH & FIFTH that one Fred!

Last night's show (Wed)isn't on Listen Again.

#10 Nice try, but he can only sail one at a time and there's no room for another, anyway. But who knows? His boat buddy's looking for something pacier. If you're prepared to accept the £500 they paid for the current one, you might be on! (Their tender's named Cheapskate - says it all!)

#11 No' tellin'. I'm a lady. ;o)

After work for me is Homeward Bound -Simon & Garfunkel

Gordon, Kirrie

Gordon - I think you may have missed the boat with that request. But I know a man who's got one for sale (not forgetting the other for sail). He might get you home safely somehow. ;o)
