'Dirty Girls'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I was a Springsteen girl and in Jersey you were one or the other.
My sister! We all got drunk the day he got married. The first time. And yes, we were still in high school. If I'm remembering right, it was the day of the prom, so we would have been doing that anyway.
"All-Time High," by Rita Coolidge.
Um:
I'm in so strong and so deep, and so are you.
Huh.
What about "The House at Pooh Corner" by, I think, Cat Stevens? Or does Christopher Robin not count?Christopher Robin always counts. I had a Pooh bear when I was little. Also an Eyeore and a Piglet, all handmade. But I slept with Pooh bear until the night my step-mom's dogs tore him apart.
Come to think of it, might explain the lifelong insomnia.
Sadly, Christopher Robin related songs don't count, because in Christopher's eyes, they belong to Christopher Robin (and I totally would have named him Christopher Robin, but his father wouldn't let me).
Of all three of my kids though, Chris, probably because he's the baby, has much less of that "Someone got something I didn't" nudgy-envy that you non-only children seem burned with.
The best is obviously "Live and Let Die", with "Goldfinger"a close second.
Whoa. That's pretty close to heresy, and I love LaLD.
I've never heard Octopussy so I can't comment on worst. Some of them just haven't stuck. I know I don't care for the Duran Duran or the Madonna ones, but they are nowhere near being the worst IMO.
Plus, some of the ones I do like were relegated to secondary songs (The Pretenders and Garbage for example). I also like "Thunderball" a lot for the sheer bombast.
There's a Christopher song. House at Pooh Corner by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.
So help me if you can I've got to get
Back to the house at Pooh Corner by one
You'd be surprised there's so much to be done
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of Christopher Robin
Back to the days of Pooh

And it was to some BITCH from OREGON. t swigs rum and coke -- it WAS High School
Cindy, surely someone has done a cover of "Ben"? You could dig that up.
I do filk A.A. Milne's poem Vespers for Chris, though. The line is, "Hush, hush, whisper who dares / Christopher Robin is saying his prayers," and I'll put our last name in place of Robin. It scans well.

If I ever find one, I will. Of course, he's 9 and a half now, so he'd probably just die of embarrassment.

Got that right.
Who was a MODEL.
