What song sticks in your mind and you can't get it out

Post by Marina »

As I have alot time on my hands :D

Certain songs keep sticking in my head and I can't help singing all the time, its driving my mum mad. At the moment its this one

(There'll Be Blue Birds Over) The White Cliffs of Dover (Robeson and Jerome version). I would love to hear the Dame Vera Lynn version

Songs

I tend to get songs spinning around in my head from time to time. Although they're usually motivational songs.

Currently:

Linkin Park - Points Of Authority

and of course The Clash. This record was out when I went through basic training. During this time we used to sing it as a reference to staying in training.... or going.... :lol: .

Ste Preece,

Very interesting choice the Clash
I thought you guys would listen to something like Led Zeppellin, Queen or The Jam. Some of their songs are very movitational.

P.S
Abba is very infectious ! Would any of you dare to train to them. That would be interesting

Doris Day.... Singing What Ever Will Be,Will Be. I think the real title was some thing like Casara Sara {know doub't the spelling is wrong] but it was popular back in 1956 and I remember the lads singing it as they were putting in an attack on Suez adventure of that year

I've always been big on The Clash, The Jam, The Who, Simple Minds, Queen, Thin Lizzie and U2, over the years.

However, more recently I'm training to Green Day and Linkin Park. The Clash are always on my training music CD somewhere, but at the moment, Linkin Park are No.1 for inspiration with me.

Cheers

Possibly the best Southern song ever composed. Brings back memories when I'm in the Southland. Looking out the window right now seeing those Pine trees makes me think of this song.
Let them call me a rebel and I welcome it, I feel no concern from it; but I should suffer the misery of demons were I to make a whore of my soul. (Thomas Paine)

Thanks for the pointer I'll have a look at this. Also: The group that's really getting my attention at the moment is Linkin Park. I personally think they're supurb.

God, but I hate country music. With rednecks and good old boys singing about their cows, hogs,hounds and horses and pick ups and 18 wheelers and drinking and gambling and being a patriot for America!

I like Cajun and zydeco though!
