Goal

Wednesday:

Roxy Music 'For Your Pleasure' with Dame Judi Dench reading poetry sampled by Eno playin on the fade out.



Simple Minds did a cover version of this.

j.O'B.

Here RJ - would In Every Dreamhome A Heartache not be reasonably appropriate?

The site is brilliant.

#1
You don't get a goal for running out the tunnel onto the park!

Pleasure

Love to Love you Baby / Donna Summer

Ms Summer had to run up ten flights of stairs to the recording studio and despite obviously being out of breath the pleasure she got from her new fitness regime is clear for all to hear!

#5 I thought she had emphysema.

Crowded House Private Universe

Make of the lyrics what you will. It's a gorgeous wee song.

no time no place to talk about the weather
the promise of love is hard to ignore
who said the chance wasn't getting any better
the labour of love is ours to endure
the highest branch on the apple tree
it was my favourite place to be
I could hear them breaking free
but they could not see me
I will run for shelter
endless summer lift the curse
it feels like nothing matters
in our private universe
I have all I want is that simple enough
there's a whole lot more I'm thinking of
every night about six o'clock
birds come back to the palm to talk
they talk to me, birds to talk to me
if I go down on my knees
I will run for shelter
endless summer lift the curse
it feels like nothing matters
in our private universe
it feels like nothing matters
in our private universe
and it's a pleasure that I have known
and it's a treasure that I have gained
and it's a pleasure that I have known
it's a tight squeeze but I won't let go
love is on the table and the dinner's cold
I will run for shelter
endless summer lift the curse
it feels like nothing matters
in our private universe

Actually strike any other suggestion:

Van Morrison - Alan watts Blues, from his superb poetic Champions Compose lp:

"Well I'm taking some time with my quiet friend
Well I'm takin' some time on my own.
Well I'm makin' some plans for my getaway
There'll be blue skies shining up above
When I'm cloud hidden
Cloud hidden
Whereabouts unknown

Well I've got to get out of the rat-race now
I'm tired of the ways of mice and men
And the empires all turning into rust again.
Out of everything nothing remains the same
That's why I'm cloud hidden
Cloud hidden
Whereabouts unknown"

pure, unadultarated pleasure.

#4 I do

DC

Pleasure

'Goody Goody' - Frankie Lymon

give me

A Love Song to Me- Johnny Winter

and take me to the Isle of

Skye - Runrig

then I'll know

How Happy I Am - Incredible String Band

'Simply Call It Love' - Gene Chandler

Moments of Pleasure - Kate Bush

well, it's bang on theme, very beautiful, Michael kamen's orchestration is stunning - a pleasure to listen to and I'd love to hear it played on GIO...but..it's about Kate's moments of pleasure rather than Henri's so I'm slightly unsure.... more thinking needed... it would definitely work in the montage though...

It's a strange theme, since quite a lot of what constitutes 'pleasure' will be struck off by GIO as 'indescribably filthy' - so we must think of higher things.

So I will think of higher things....

regardez vous

henri

Henri - 'indescribably filthy' ???


Go on.....

Enjoy yourself, by the specials. If only for the spoken line,'
Hello my name's Terry, and I'm gonna be enjoying myself first.'

To finish the day nothing takes you to another place like some good live music as described here...

Pleasure....

You Shook Me All Night Long: AC/DC
36D: The Beautiful South
A Case Of You: Joni Mitchell
Cocaine Blues: John Martyn

... I think PAIN theme is going to be an easier one....

Hot Pastrami - The Dartells

Pleasure could perhaps be perceived as:

'I dream of Jeannie (with the light brown hair) ... Al Jonson
'The night I punched Russell Crowe' ... Gaelic Storm
'Cigarettes Whisky and Wild Women' ... The Sons of the Pioneers
'Stairway to Heaven' ... The Foo Fighters
'Heaven's in the back seat of my Cadillac' ... Hot Chocolate

Comfort Food...'Diner' - Martin Sexton

All this user's posts have been removed.Why?

Cosy's nice...'Two Sleepy People' - prefer Hoagy Carmichael's version but Fats Waller would do.

For Wednesday - Heaven - Do

We're All Alone - Rita Coolidge

Love Sneakin' Up On You - Bonnie Raitt

We've Got Tonight - Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band

:o)

How do I eradicate them? The local car wash is making a small fortune out of me.

;o)

'Really Free' ... J Otway & Wild Willy B

'Welcome to the Pleasuredome' ... Frankie

Afternoon Delight - Starland Vocal Band

As I`ve said before, as a kid I never understood what the `delight` was of fireworks in the afternoon. (Unless it was putting bangers through DC`s letterbox that is). Anyway, this is another guilty pleasure of mine.

So that's who it was. Make no wonder you ran off to the colonies. Look out for my letter in the post

I think that Do anything you wanna do - Eddie and the Hot Rods hits the mark here so I back up KG's suggestion. Not only is it a pleasurable get-up-and-go song, it defines the whole idea of pleasure

Now where's that catherine wheel...

DC in Cellardyke

(By the way, in an effort to get this played, I will be making Chicken Saag whilst the show is on)

Why did the Chicken Saag?

It heard the Chana Chat.

#39 but naan was true. It was a pakora lies

* Billy Bragg - A Lover Sings
Adam and Eve/Theresa and Steve are finding out all about love

* Divine Comedy - My Lovely Horse
A simple pleasure

* The Chordettes - Mr Sandman
Ahh, sleep

* Madness - House of Fun

* Michael Nyman - The Heart Asks Pleasure First
which has a Brucie Bonus of being essentially the melody for Gloomy Winter's Now Awa'

* Spike Jones - Cocktails for Two
Oh what delight to be given the right
To be carefree and gay once again
No longer slinking, respectfully drinking
Like civilized ladies and men
With perhaps the only stop chorus of hiccups in recorded popular music

* Peter Gabriel - Solsbury Hill
Today I don't need a replacement
I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
My heart going boom boom boom
"Hey" I said "You can keep my things,
They've come to take me home."

and finally, the one that is perhaps a wee bit dubious by inference:
* The Vapors - Turning Japanese

Simply...

#54

Ahhhhhhhhhh, The High Life!

Old Deano sounds pretty happy on Volare

Flying, oh oh
And singing, oh oh oh oh
In the blue, painted blue
It tells us to stay up there
And I flew, I flew happy more higher than the sun with the choir on more
As the world slowly disappeared far away over there
Soft music played only for me

#22 Gaie, the Stornoway suggestion is intriguing, both the song and the experience. I'll put both on my list...

#35 Senga, is your car white? It's their favourite colour :-D
Seriously, this is a by-product of our throw-away society. You need to talk nicely to the neighbours or start a movement to have your local takeaway closed down. Good Luck ;-)

#35 I'm told that tuna and superglue does the trick

#35

It is now.

'Cigarettes Whisky and Wild Women' ... The Sons of the Pioneers.

Best thing tonight Kene!

Caption:

Secretly pleased by the turn of events, Paul's Mum made him a special tea and casually mentioned that his room had been re-decorated.

....with photos of nice looking birds....

........ big tits, by any chance......

Tits like coconuts.

Oh for goodness sake......and the Capn and Jimfrae have not even chipped in yet.
