Spike ,'Get It Done'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
Congratulations on the impending bundle of babytude, Jim! Excellent good news.
I have no cricket songs. I do however have a collection of football (soccer) songs, including ditties about Pele, George Best (Belfast Boy) and Jan Van Kuyper (guessing) the Flying Dutchman.
Thanks all. When an Old Cricketer Leaves The Crease is the only cricket song I have - and that only cos it was the other song everyone played as a Peel tribute - although I've probably got some cricket-titled instrumentals buried in my Dad's old trad jazz vinyl pile. Humphrey Lyttleton must surely have recorded some.
Congrats, Jim! I'm just going to throw this out there: May 19th is my birthday and "Hayden" is an increasingly popular name for boys and girls.
Yay for Jim and Penny!
I don't have any songs about baseball or broken noses that I know of, so I'm going to go with a song I hope Emmett will like.
OK, here's how the mix is going to work (you may want to mark this post).
We're going with the theme of Emmett's Mix: Songs about (or referring to) Baseball And/Or Broken Noses. I say that we have allowance for similar sports or injuries.
The lineup is, in order of signups:
Let me know if you need to shift your position around. I'd go first, but my home computer is on the fritz, after getting struck by lightning yesterday, so I put myself last to account for the repair time. Email me at buffistarawk at gmail dot com for the password if you want to upload your song that way or look at your liner notes or something like that. If I'm not around, I'd appreciate if someone else passes on the password once it starts circulating.
Also, this is a mix, so try to keep flow in mind when you're choosing your track! There's room for more participants if anyone else wants in.
OK, Jim, you're up first.
Email me at buffistarawk at gmail dot com for the password if you want to upload your song that way
What are the other options?
And to clarify: if we do it via gmail, we just e-mail the song file as an attached file to the "buffistarawk" gmail account?
And then if we want the whole mix CD, we need the gmail password so that we can download the files?
I'm at work or in prenatal until Sunday, so I'll have to hand the baton to Lyra - apologies...
(Also, if need be, I can start the mix, b/c I know exactly what song I want to use.)
(Once I know for sure how to get it rolling. [See above post.])
ok. I'm kind of dense so I want to be clear...we each pick one song about baseball and/or broken noses?
(also, if it's not a problem, could I go a little further along in the list? I'm super, super busy this weekend and I may have to do some research...)
You pick one or the other subject. Beyond that I have no idea of the mechanics. Perhaps detailed instructions could be provided?
