Hey Mr DJ, I dedicate this song to...

Mr DJ

I dedicate this song to wolf.

You know wolf, I know wolf, we all miss her.  She sent this song along to me in a covert DCMA-disapproved process that nevertheless expanded my musical universe.

For that I am eternally grateful

Thank you wolf.

Ok, DJ, take it away!

Hey Mr DJ

I dedicate this video to Flint.  As one commenter noted, that drummer is so tight that if he was throne on an island for 8 months he'd still know what time is is.

My god, that man is focused.




I have to say, I've watched and listened to this video ... twenty times.  What a groove.  Or is it a jam? Or is it an abduction by the funky jazz masters of cool?  I. Do. Not. Care.  Please, please, just keep playing.

Hey Mr DJ

It turns out, the drummer and the guitarist are in another band, "The True Loves".  And I dedicate this set to Limey, because BRASS!

Oh, oh, so much brass.  God. Damn.  More Jam.  More Funk.  More relentless take me away just don't stop the music. 

Dayum.

Re: Hey Mr DJ, I dedicate this song to...

Hey Mr DJ

I dedicate this song to myself.




Few musicians are as earnest and piercing as John Denver.  And I love him for it.

The lyrics? Ok.

John Denver wrote:

Poems, Prayers and PromisesJohn Denver 

I've been lately thinking about my life's time
All the things I've done, how it's been
And I can't help believing in my own mind
I know I'm gonna hate to see it end

I've seen a lot of sunshine, slept out in the rain
Spent a night or two all on my own
I've known my lady's pleasures, had myself some friends
And spent a night or two in my own home

I have to say it now, it's been a good life, all in all
It's really fine to have a chance to hang around
And lie there by the fire and watch the evening tire
While all my friends and my old lady sit and pass the pipe around
Talk of poems and prayers and promises and things that we believe in
How sweet it is to love someone, how right it is to care.
How long it's been since yesterday and what about tomorrow?
What about our dreams and all the memories we share?

The days they pass so quickly now, nights are seldom long
Time around me whispers when it's cold
The changes somehow frighten me, still I have to smile
It turns me on to think of growing old

For though my life's been good to me there's still so much to do
So many things my mind's never known
I'd like to raise a family, I'd like to sail away
And dance across the mountains on the moon, yes I would

I have to say it now, it's been a good life, all in all
It's really fine to have the chance to hang around
And lie there by the fire and watch the evening tire
While all my friends and my old lady, sit and watch the sun go down

Talk of poems and prayers and promises and things that we believe in
How sweet it is to love someone, how right it is to care
How long it's been since yesterday and what about tomorrow?
What about our dreams and all the memories we share?

Songwriters: John Denver

(bold mine)

I'll miss this life.  That's how I feel now, later, moot.  I feel now that I'll miss all my life, my family, including you, my family of choice.

And it does turn me on to think of growing old.  I used to think, wow, they're *awesome*, those big people.  I'm one of them now and I'm still fascinated about all they know that I don't. 

Well, slightly misaligned from Mr Denver's lyrics, I have raised a family.  And it's a good thing I'm such a good touch typist because I can't see the keys through these happy tears.  I love my family and .. I just love them.  Tha's enough.

I hope you all enjoy the song as much as I do.

Hey Mr DJ!

Apathy is a tragedy and boredom is a crime..... 

So, please Mr DJ, play this song for my dear friend Clodfobble, who's appetite for information and stimulation has never been sated.

So is it Dedicated, so Mote it be.

Heh... that one's been in steady rotation in the car since the special came out. Fortunately, the kids are old enough now that we don't have to care about lyrical obscenities.

This one's actually my favorite from that collection:

OK

Since this is looking like my own personal therapy thread....

I *did* read along with Mr Burham.. Ok... ouch.

Point:



Counterpoint:



placing my fingers firmly in my ears and singing LALALALALALALALA
I'm going with Counterpoint..  

I *will* miss this, even though I think Mr Burnham's point is well made and can win the day (if my fingers tire).

Mr DJ, please play this one for my dear friend, and yours, wolf.  Specifically, starting at 1:47.

​Thanks.

First sign of an extremist.  Everything is justified by an emotion.  Moderates first learn and discuss facts. The fundamental  difference between those who would destroy democracy and patriots.
