I'm covered up in deadlines, but here's a group for whom I had to write a review - too cool not to share:

"There was supposed to be an Earth shattering Ka boom!

Why YES, of course I'm still here--
thought I would sprinkle a little fairy dust around with my sweet side rather than make a big splash...

HI MBT!!!! Gosh seriously it's nice to see you... sprinkle all you want! Nuthin' but good vibes here at this moment!

is that actually Johnny Depp doing a bit of twinkle-toes? A nice little dance piece, yes (thank you). I used to dance like that, long long ago. Alas I don't have the endurance for a career of it.

Hope you too are having a lovely summer. Rock on!
HI LUNAZURE

yes, been a while, hasn't it? I hope things have been going well for you. Not Johnny Dep don't know who it is is but they do a great job. Not sure Johnny would be so coordinated for such anyway Is Leslie still onboard? Hope everyone has been doing ok. I live in the deep south so it's natural that I would hate summer. while I was out in AZ it wasn't too bad--I just feel like a wilted flower here. I may consider moving north of LA (lower AL) say like, Tennessee....while it's humid there too I think the further south one gets the worse it gets...I could be wrong.

I still love the Doors and I used to get this tune mixed up with them when I was a kid, until I learned better...

STILL f-ckn awesome after all these years-REALLY getting into the mood to dance now - so I am going to get up and do it ! Celebrate the moment with movement ...(funny how you can control those emos at will )

Haven't heard Captain in a while-thanks.

my official "Autumn Anthem".....

That is a good traveling tune...I agree.

I always have fun with this one --reminds me of those Hobbits at the Green Dragon 😉

I wish you were doing the Cruise upcoming, they have a lot of "Irish" music on this cruise, and I love that sort of thing. Gotta dash maybe more later.

I'd be likely to meet up with you on dry land. ( I'm sure it would be a hoot. 🙂 ) That way, I can control where and whence I go. That occurred to me with the first MB floating tour and I was considering a ticket for the show. Then my enthusiasm waned as I thought the scenario out. While I am not opposed to seeing the Moodies themselves perform, one thing I won't willingly subject myself to is confinement under the control of anyone else. Being on a boat will restrict that decision making and I'll have none of that....I'm too minded towards unbridled movement at my own will....when I'm ready to get up to leave that is what I'm accustomed to.
I have only myself looking out for me and that isn't going to change until I am outta here. 🙂

I hope you have fun tho....
Ever hear of Leo Caffrey? My aunt Lois used to have this Irish tenor album which I now own and she used to get a kick out of this pub song....I always thought it was really funny as well...

SWEET MARIE
(Percy French)

I've a little racing mare called Sweet Marie,
And the temper of a bear has Sweet Marie,
But I backed the mare to win, and on her I've all my tin,
So we'll take a trial spin, Sweet Marie.

CHORUS: Hold your holt, Sweet Marie, if you bolt, Sweet Marie
You'll never win the Galway Plate for me.
Every daisy in the dell ought to know me mighty well,
For at every fence we fell, Sweet Marie.

Oh the colours that I chose for Sweet Marie
Were lavender and rose for Sweet Marie.
Ah. but now no thanks to you, sure I'm quite a different hue,
For I'm only black and blue, Sweet Marie. CHORUS

Oh we're coming up to race, my Sweet Marie,
Runners up and to your place my Sweet Marie.
Will you stop your waltzing round or we'll both be on the ground
And we never will be found, Sweet Marie. CHORUS

Oh we're coming up to race my Sweet Marie,
I have backed you for a place, my Sweet Marie,
Oh we barely hit the dawn, I fell off and you went on.
Now my money is all gone, Sweet Marie.

FINAL CHORUS: Hold your holt, Sweet Marie, pass the colt, Sweet Marie.
You've gone and lost the Galway Plate for me.
You're a stayer too, I find, but you're not the proper kind,
For you stay too far behind, Sweet Marie.

Hehehe that was cute! No hidden bread crumbs I hope!

I was just watching a movie shot in Ireland, and was in the mood for that! In fact I sorta like the theme for the movie... went looking for it but could only find the trailer. It's quite enjoyable, I've been sorting files and watching at the same time. I'd say about half of it was filmed in Ireland. One day hopefully I'll find more time to go back and visited... for a week or something. Lovely place Ireland. Maybe I should move there and live in poverty and do nothing but write.

looks interesting, there's a scarlett every where you turn these days 😉
I imagine sweet marie was raised on sugarcane and would most likely turn her sassy little horses's rear to the front at the bread crumbs kinda wish I had one of her for a pet-would suit my own character, but would be expensive, no doubt...

I love the music of Carole King but her VOICE to me, personally, as been and still is annoying. I used to draw out these scenarios in my imagination where in I would be sitting in the wings waiting for her to come out to the mike. As she approached it I would be approaching from the opposite direction. When we met, I would smile at her, but in a very low voice where the audience could not hear me, I would say, "Let Carly Simon sing the songs. You just sit down and play the piano. Please." She was GREAT at that instrument!

Tapestry is my favorite of her accomplishments-very artistic lyrics. So Far Away and Jazzman is next....now she could sing those three VERY nicely....
