Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: PHJim Date: 02 Mar 11 - 10:00 AM While Tom Rush did cover the Remember Song, Steve Walters wrote it and should get credit. I've noticed this happening a lot. Often when you google lyrics, they're credited to someone who performed them rather than the actual song writer. Todd Snider's song Missing You came into my head the day my brother died: I feel like missing you today. Sometimes I just get this way. Seems like everything I see Brings back another memory. I feel like missing you today. |

Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: Barbara Date: 30 Oct 08 - 10:23 PM SHIT I'VE FORGOTTEN THE WORDS (Anon) Chorus: On a packet of fags I'd written them down I threw them away as I drove into town Now I feel a bit of a clown Shit, I've forgotten the words My heart is a-pounding within my breast I know the first line, I forgot all the rest A memory like mine is a hell of a pest Shit, I've forgotten the words The last time I sang them they went down a treat Dogs were howling out on the street I spilt my beer all over my feet 'Cos shit, I've forgotten the words Sometimes they come back line by line as I sing Tonight I can't seem to remember a thing Ian McCalman will know, I'll give him a ring Oh shit, I've forgotten his number So come all you singers, practise your verse If you do not you surely will curse But I remembered the tune, it could have been worse Next time I'll remember the words Tune is the Muckin' of Geordie's Byre, and I have modified this by substituting the name of any friend who can remember a lot of the words (or has notebooks and notebooks of words) and "ATM statement" for "a packet of fags" because on this side of the pond the word "fag" changes meaning. I thought this was Hamish Imlach, but it appears to be attributed to anon on his recording. Blessings, Barbara |

Subject: Lyr Add: GRANDFATHER (Kilkenny Krew) From: oldhippie Date: 30 Oct 08 - 09:26 PM And this one, transcribed from the singing of the Kilkenny Krew: GRANDFATHER Grandfather sits in an old rocking chair And he hums a sad song to the still morning air This old folks prison don't feel much like home And though he's got friends he feels so much alone Chorus: Ah, but Julie comes somedays when she finds the time And she brings homemade bread and some blueberry wine And most of all she brings him hope for awhile And she leaves the old man with a tear and a smile In the old days Grandfather remembers so sweet You should see the old Ford Model T's on the street And the hot roaring twenties were a young man's delight With the straw hat and whiskey and speed kings and dice Chorus Do the folks in the village remember us still Or, are we quickly forgotten when we're over the hill And as Grandfather drifts down the warm sunset years He can scarcely recall all the seasons of tears Chorus Grandfather sits in an old rocking chair And he hums a sad song to the still morning air This old folks prison don't feel much like home And though he's got friends he feels so much alone Chorus |
Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: oldhippie Date: 30 Oct 08 - 09:05 PM WHEN I'M 64 Jim Terr parody of Paul McCartney Now that I'm older, I still got me hair, But there's still things 'bout which, If I were sufficiently a pessimist, I might still be willing to bitch. Sittin and standin', movin' me bowels, Trying to unlock the damn door. Life is a more static, less automatic, Now that I'm 64. It's only the new 54, that's what they say, But that's a load of bull and it's hard to take. And no doubt when I am 85, I'll know me attitude was a mistake. -But meanwhile… Send me postcard telling me please, Where I left that note Reminding meself where I left the auto keys, And where I put that linament to rub on me knees. If I stay out til eleven or twelve, dial 944. (or is it 991?) Life is more static, less automatic, Now that I'm 64. |

Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: GUEST,Ken Brock Date: 23 Oct 08 - 10:58 AM There is also a parody version of Tom Paxton's "The Last Thing On My Mind" sung by the trio Hot Soup about forgetfulness. |
Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: GUEST,Ken Brock Date: 23 Oct 08 - 10:57 AM In addition to McCartney's "Yesterday," there's also an older song (from the first half of the 20th C.) titled "Yesterdays." The above had music by Jerome Kern. Eric Bogle - Scraps of Paper Paul Simon - Bookends, Part 2 ("preserve your memories, they're all that's left you" Remember - Nilsson ("Long Ago, Far Away...") The "Gigi" I Remember It Well was actually a rewrite. Alan Jay Lerner wrote a similar song with the same title with Kurt Weill for LOVE LIFE in the late 1940s', available on one of Ben Bagley's Painted Smiles collections. |
Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: GUEST,Suffolk Miracle Date: 23 Oct 08 - 06:39 AM By the firelight's gentle gleaming I am sitting here and dreaming; It's a pleasure to recall again the days that now are gone. But I find upon reflection that my fondest recollections Are the lilting fiddle music and the dancing in Glenrone (x2) Every jig and reel, I mind them; in my memory I still find them, When I think back to my boyhood and the days beyond recall. Though I'm old and growing dreary, yet my heart will never weary Of the lilting fiddle music and the dancing in Glenrone (x2) You girls, you were the neatest and your dancing was the sweetest, And I'll never find your equal now in the valleys of Tyrone. Us lads were young and steady, and it's always we were ready For the lilting fiddle music and the dancing in Glenrone (x2) As I sit a while and ponder, in my mind I sometimes wonder Why we ever leave such pleasures for a life so cold and lone; And I wish I was returning to begin again life's morning With the lilting fiddle music and the dancing in Glenrone (x2) Though my age is swift advancing, yet I know there'll still be dancing In a cottage by the glenside where my thoughts tonight have flown. So may joy of life betide you - may the hand of Heaven guide you - May I live to see you all againn still dancing in Glenrone (x2) |

Subject: I Will Remember You From: Genie Date: 11 Aug 08 - 08:54 PM Yeah, it's a beautiful song, and Sarah McL. sings it beautifully too. I hadn't thought of it in that context, but it really fits. Here's another "remembering" song, which I first heard sung by Celtic Thunder. It's by Phil Coulter, who wrote "Scorn Not His Simplicity" and a number of others. Remember Me, Recuerdame |
Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: topical tom Date: 11 Aug 08 - 08:32 PM Genie, that is a wonderful song.I just heard it sung recently at the funeral of a dear friend.It was very moving. |
Subject: Lyr Add: I WILL REMEMBER YOU (Sarah MacLachlan) From: Genie Date: 11 Aug 08 - 08:18 PM I WILL REMEMBER YOU (by Sarah McLachlan, Seamus Egan, and Dave Merenda) I will remember you. Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by, Weep not for the memories. Remember the good times that we had? I let them slip away from us when things got bad. How clearly I first saw you smiling in the sun. Want to feel your warmth upon me, I want to be the one. I will remember you. Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by, Weep not for the memories. I'm so tired but I can't sleep, Standing on the edge of something much too deep. It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word. We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard. But I will remember you. Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by, Weep not for the memories. I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to lose, Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose. Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night. You gave me everything you had, oh, you gave me light. And I will remember you. Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by, Weep not for the memories. And I will remember you. Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by, Weep not for the memories. Weep not for the memories. |

Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: topical tom Date: 11 Aug 08 - 01:16 PM You're welcome, Charlie!When I think of that song I think of it first as sung by Maurice Chevalier, so singing it with a French accent seems totally natural to me.By the way, you may notice that most of my songs are tear-jerkers.When a song provokes laughter or tears I consider it a good song so WTH,I'll keep carrying hankies and Kleenex whereever I go! |
Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: Genie Date: 11 Aug 08 - 01:12 PM I love that last line from Michael Smith's "The Dutchman" - "Long ago I used to be a young man And dear Margaret remembers that for me." |
Subject: Lyr Add: NON, JE NE REGRETTE RIEN (from Edith Piaf From: Genie Date: 11 Aug 08 - 01:08 PM In addition to McCartney's "Yesterday," there's also an older song (from the first half of the 20th C.) titled "Yesterdays." Then there's the one Roy Clark sang: "Yesterday When I Was Young." Wasn't that originally a French song done by Charles Aznavour? Speaking of French songs about reminiscing, there's Edith Piaf's "Le Vieux Piano" (The Old Piano), and I guess you could also include what in her later life sort of became her signature song: Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien (Charles Dumont/Michel Vaucaire Non, rien de rien, (No, nothing at all) Non, je ne regrette rien, (No, I regret nothing,) Ni le bien qu'on m'a fait ni le mal - (Neither the good they've done to me nor the bad -) Ça m'est bien égal. (It's all the same to me." Non, rien de rien, Non, je ne regrette rien. C'est payé, balayé, oublié (It's paid for, swept away, forgotten) Je me fous du passé! (I don't give a damn about the past!) Avec mes souvenirs (With my memories) J'ai allumé le feu, (I light the fire) Mes chagrins, mes plaisirs, (My problems, my pleasures,) Je n'ai plus besoin. d'eux (I don't need them any more_ Balayés mes amours (My love affairs swept away) Avec leurs trémolos (with their Balayés pour toujours. (swept away forever.) Je repars à zéro. (I'm starting again at zero.) Non, rien de rien, Non, je ne regrette rien, Ni le bien qu'on m'a fait, ni le mal - Tout ça m'est bien égal! Non, rien de rien, Non, je ne regrette rien, Car ma vie (For my life,) Car mes joies (for my joys) Aujourd'hui (today) Ça commence avec toi. (That begins with you.) |
Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: fat B****rd Date: 11 Aug 08 - 12:46 PM Thankyou Topical Tom. I reserve the right to sing in a Maurice Chevalier accent on account of my French roots. There's a lovely song by Mose Alison called "Was" on the theme of 'When is becomes was" and not forgetting Johnny Mercer's "Early Autumn" and Mr. Wait's "Martha" I'll get me hanky. Charlie |
Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: Genie Date: 11 Aug 08 - 12:26 PM That's the title, leeneia: "I'll Be Seeing You." It was very popular during WWII. |
Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: GUEST,leeneia Date: 11 Aug 08 - 10:41 AM The one that starts 'I'll be seeing you in all the old familiar places..' I think it is one of the most elegant songs ever written. I see you in the morning sun and when the day is through, I'll be looking at the moon, but I'll be seeing...you.' |

Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: topical tom Date: 10 Aug 08 - 12:41 PM Bill D:"Sweet Song From Yesterday" is a lovely song indeed. |
Subject: Lyr Add: SWEET SONG FROM YESTERDAY (Bob Zentz) From: Bill D Date: 10 Aug 08 - 12:32 PM The song Charlie Noble mentioned by Bob Zentz is actually "SWEET SONG FROM YESTERDAY" Hold back the days in which I'm living, So far from home, so far from free; Hold back the way we've all been given, And let a sweet song from yesterday wash over me. If we should meet like ships a-passin', Some stormy night upon the blue, We may not speak, but for the asking, I'd let a sweet song from yesterday wash over you. When it seems you dreams ain't worth the dreamin', When you can't find you way through, And when you schemes ain't worth the schemin', Just let a sweet song from yesterday wash over you. ...verse I added many years ago because I thought it was too short:(a copy was given to Bob just so he'd know what happened if anyone used it near him.) "So many times we've sung together- So many songs, but still too few. So sing tonight - and on the 'morrow, Just let a sweet song from yesterday...wash over you" |

Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: Genie Date: 09 Aug 08 - 07:31 PM There's also another "Those Were The Days" -- the one that was used as the theme song for All In The Family: Boy, the way Glen Miller played Songs that made the hit parade! Guys like us, we had it made -- Those were the days! Didn't need no welfare state, Everybody pulled his weight. Gee, our old LaSalle ran great! Those were the days! And you knew where [who?] you were then: Girls were girls and men were men. Mister, we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again! ... And the last verse is eluding my recall at the moment. (I.e., I can't remember it right now. LOL ) Anyway, maybe "nostalgia" songs is a slightly different category from "songs about remembering." |

Subject: songs about remembering (or not) From: Genie Date: 09 Aug 08 - 01:44 PM Along the lines of "Ah, Yes, I Remember It Well," we also have these hilarious gems: The Memory Song (Steve Walters) ("I'm looking for my wallet and my car keys ... ") and Sue Trainor's parody of Tom Paxton's "Last Thing On My Mind," written for Tom's 60th birthday: (Don't Know What Was) The Last Thing On My Mind |
Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: Genie Date: 09 Aug 08 - 01:11 PM I mentioned "Memories" above, Jerry. Are you thinking of the same one? "Memories, memories, Dreams of love so true. O'er a sea of memory I'm drifting back to you. Childhood days, wildwood days Among the leaves of green. You left me alone But you're still my own In my beautiful memories." Mary, I was just about to mention "I Remember You" (... And when my life is through And the angels ask me to recall The thrill of it all, Then I will tell them I remember you." Perry Como had a pop hit with a song called "Magic Moments" back in the '50s. And there was another one (The Four Tops?) called "Moments To Remember." How can we NOT have mentioned Burns's AULD LANG SYNE? |
Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: Jerry Rasmussen Date: 09 Aug 08 - 12:47 PM And then there's a song titled "Memories." There's a gospel song titled "Remember Me," too. Jerry |
Subject: RE: songs about remembering From: Snuffy Date: 09 Aug 08 - 12:33 PM But the ladies remember at Whitsun How well I remember that terrible day When our blood stained the sand and the water But that's a long long time ago There's a picture in a frame And tears shed every Christmas But the memories remain Remember December of fifty-nine The howling wind and driving rain Remember the gallant men who drowned On the lifeboat, Mona was her name A long, long time ago, I can still remember how that music used to make me smile. By the waters the waters of Babylon Where we lay down Yea we wept when we remembered Zion While I'm away, Oh please remember me. When I return, I'll find you waiting here. It's well I do remember on a bleak November's day, The landlord and his agent came to drive us all away; He set my house on fire with his demon yellow spleen And that's another reason why I left Old Skibbereen. I took the gold pin from the scarf on my bosom, And said, "Take ye this, in remembrance of me", And bravely I kissed the sweet lips of the lassie Ere I parted with her on the road to Dundee. Pretty babes in the wood, pretty babes in the wood Oh, don't you remember those babes in the wood |
