Subject: RE: Sweet Magical Songs Needed From: GUEST,Shanti Date: 26 Jul 00 - 09:42 PM How about Lady Keith's Lament or Who Will Comfort Me? They always get to me. The latter actually makes me cry every time I hear it.

Subject: RE: Sweet Magical Songs Needed From: Mbo Date: 26 Jul 00 - 09:39 PM O my God! Thomas, another Oasis fan? A rare occurance indeed! I LOVE "She's Electric"! It's one of only 3 songs I have memorized, the others being "Digsy's Diner" and "Put Yer Money Where Yer Mouth Is" by Oasis as well. You and I, we're gonna live forever, my friend! --Matt |
Subject: RE: Sweet Magical Songs Needed From: Thomas the Rhymer Date: 26 Jul 00 - 09:32 PM Right Joe, I haven't even checked on a couple of the ones I play... So far so good... I'm especially interested in what is known these days as ancient, but keep em comming! Mbo, I think Oasis ROCKS!, "she's electric" is one of my faves, as well as "Wonder Wall" which gets everyone a bit up. |

Subject: RE: Sweet Magical Songs Needed From: Joe Offer Date: 26 Jul 00 - 07:42 PM Remember that if you're listing songs that aren't in the Digital Tradition or Forum, it's a really nice thing to post the lyrics (and Dick will yell at you if you don't). -Joe Offer- |

Subject: RE: Sweet Magical Songs Needed From: Amergin Date: 26 Jul 00 - 07:03 PM I like Andy M. Stewart's My Heart It Belongs To She... I always thought Take Her In Your Arms was about a drag queen.... |
Subject: RE: Sweet Magical Songs Needed From: Sorcha Date: 26 Jul 00 - 07:00 PM Well, it's "new" and copyrighted, but AshOaken Farewell does it for me. So does Andy M. Stewart's Take Her in Your Arms. Sittin' On the Dock Of the Bay, Wabash Blues (or almost any bues, for that matter). Sweet Georgia Brown. |
Subject: RE: Sweet Magical Songs Needed From: Gary T Date: 26 Jul 00 - 06:59 PM "Frog Kissing", written by Buddy Kalb (of "Mississippi Squirrel Revival" fame) and recorded by Chet Atkins. In my opinion, it meets your criteria. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. |
Subject: RE: Sweet Magical Songs Needed From: Catrin Date: 26 Jul 00 - 06:57 PM 'Everything POssible' by Fred West 'Come by The Hills' - not sure who by Both in DT I think this thread will produce some interesting comments. I do believe that 'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder' but it will be good to see the different songs that each of us might choose as being special in the way you describe. Cheers, Catrin |
Subject: RE: Sweet Magical Songs Needed From: Mbo Date: 26 Jul 00 - 06:51 PM Dang, don't know ANY of those! I'd recommend, with my bulletproof vest firmly in place, "Whatever" by Oasis. A slow, song of hope, with great happy melody, and awesome laid-back harmonica stylings...a great song of hope indeed to young traditional players of this day "I'm free to be whatever, whatever I want, and I'll sing the blues if I want." Sorry...I'm working on the acoustic version now... |

Subject: Sweet Magical Songs ARISE! From: Thomas the Rhymer Date: 26 Jul 00 - 06:46 PM I would like very much to find songs that sparkle. You know, the type of song that insires with hope without being a hymn, adds meaning to our lives without being cynical, and is so melodic that it swoons the people three doors down even though they can't quite hear it... I have long felt that some songs have this quality, but some tell me that it is more the singer than the song,... I'm ready. I want the songs. Know any? Highland Rover, St. Helena, Witch of the Westmerlands, Bailiff's daughter of Islington, and Bonny Betsy Logan are a few. |
