Ultravox - Dancing With Tears In My Eyes Like omg i was only a tadpole, 12 yo when i first kissed ummm i forgot the girls name t hen a couple of years later @ that first mixer party, same song, different girl, hell different place too, i was like 14 years old at that time and the girls name.was...... well you never forget your first they say, nor have I forgotten her name... nor will I ever tell it... right ... ahem... on to other matters now... besides a gentleman never kisses and tells.
all this was 24 years ago, holy snap that is a long time past, and fraternization was a real big issue back then, except for those Friday night dance partys.
Sheesh then 2 months later some time in September listening to this on 1040 kicks, 14 years old and first time getting drunk on a shit mix... (a little of this a little of that) all added to a bottle shake up add coke drink till u fall down... , yegads talk about old stir the pot memories... then some bastard calling your old man to drag ur drunk falling down you can't stand up ass home cause your to drunk to even safely walk home at this time.
Nice song choice lil_me if u want a free sound blaster, sound card i have a half height one, its a few years old but it does still work... that Joe Jackson song Stepping Out, just a wee bit to mellow for me today.
this is a bit more my speed today Joe Jackson - I'm The Man i need something upbeat to keep me alive today... 8 hours sleep total in the past 96 hrs i am drained and feeling dead, but just can not sleep. under to much stress worried about what im gonna do next... my computer melted down, on a begged borrowed machine till i get enough to put together till my taxes come in to buy new cpu ...

Um, would I just plug in the sound card, or do I need to download a driver for it? I'm tempted to just go without sound because the computer is an ancient piece of junk. It's still useful for text-based applications, like email and QuickBooks, but that's it.

this song by Deep Forest - Sweet Lullaby is astounding i don't know if i want to weep or laugh or just cry my aching heart out it is magnificent beyond basic words.
Sasi sasi o to aro aro O angi si nau boroi amu Ni ma oe e fasi korona Dolali dasa na, lao dai afuimae Afuta guau mauri, Afuta wela inomae
Sasi sasi ae o angisi nau Boroi nima oe e fasi koro na Dolali dasa na, lao dai afuimae Afuta guau mauri, Afuta wela inomae Young brother, young brother you be quiet Although you are crying to me Your father has left us He has gone to the place of the dead Protect the head of the living, Protect the orphan child
Young brother, young brother hey? although you are crying to me Your father has left us He has gone to the place of the dead Protect the head of the living, protect the orphan child Interpreting the Song:
This interpretation and lyrics come from one very old lady, living in Fataleka (one of the Solomon Islands), as translated by her grandchildren. The song is said to be very old and hence the new generation does not understand every word.
The song is about a young child crying because he does not see his father with the family. In response his elder sister sung this song to comfort as well as tell him the reality, with an appeal for their deceased father to protect this child in the land of the living (local ancient belief is that the dead care for loved ones they left behind).
The old woman also said that the sample, if listened to carefully, used some words and sounds that were added to make it sound more melo. Expression of some words twice, as well pronounciation of most of the words are different from that of normal conversation. Eg. 'O' should be OE', Angiangi should be angisi. This is very common with local traditional songs.
Thanks to the people of the Solomon Islands for the lyrics, translation, and interpretation

I've been listening to love songs (ladyhawke) and blues songs about drinking (thorogood). The latter being my final acceptance/realization in that I'm a midwestern boy, but I said this last year too when started talking like a southerner in about mid-April and freaking everyone out. I rather be the East Euro 2nd gen without all the genocidal tendencies.
