From: s6k i borrowed the one voice book a short time ago, twas good. i see that christymoore.net is now a crappy search thing. a disgrace. i can only assume how long wasnt included because the album was released after the book was published, or summat. i may just do the lyrics myself by listening, but if christymoore.com put up guitar tabs / chords... that would be one of the greatest things ever |

25 Apr 06 - 09:00 PM (#1727481) Subject: RE: Christymoore.com LYRICS????? From: Jim Dixon Christy Moore's recording of HOW LONG is on his album "This Is the Day," Columbia LP #503255.2, 2001. According to Allmusic.com, "Jackson Browe" (sic) wrote it. I assume that's a typo for "Jackson Browne." Indeed, Jackson Browne wrote and recorded a song called HOW LONG. It is on his album "World in Motion," Elektra LP 50, 1989. The lyrics have been posted in this thread: Every 3 seconds...a child dies...Live 8. |

26 Apr 06 - 08:26 PM (#1728390) Subject: RE: Christymoore.com LYRICS????? From: Declan I just had a quick look and it seems to be a good site with lots of lyrics. One slight quibble (which was mentioned on a thread here a long time back) is that the version of Spancil Hill on the site is not the one recorded by Christy (on Prosperous). I would imagine that an official site would have Christy's version of the songs on it, rather than someone else's (can't remember who was the first to record that version). |

29 Apr 06 - 08:10 AM (#1729849) Subject: RE: Christymoore.com LYRICS????? From: Marc To paraphrase Christy. "There are somes song on the site, some not. However if you want to learn something. "Buy the record, play it 100 times , and learn, we've become too acustom to instant knowledge. Then complain when it's not instant or accurate." |

29 Apr 06 - 11:16 AM (#1729952) Subject: RE: Christymoore.com LYRICS????? From: Declan You could do that. That's how we all used to learn songs. There again if you're going to the bother of creating a webssite, you could do the job properly in the first place! |

30 Apr 06 - 07:04 PM (#1730882) Subject: RE: Christymoore.com LYRICS????? From: GUEST He recorded one of my songs and DESTROYED the lyric, to the extent that the original meaning was lost. As the writer I have no real redress, but I still find it unforgivable. Still, that's what some would defend as the folk process! |
