Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Amergin Date: 07 Oct 01 - 01:37 AM the best love song i have ever heard though is the music that beats in your heart whenever your eyes rest on the one you hold dear.... |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: rangeroger Date: 07 Oct 01 - 01:11 AM While trying to get my reel-to-reel tape deck functional yesterday, I ran my copy of Ella Fitzgeralds "Like Someone in Love" through it. Wow. I'd forgotten how good these songs were and of course Ella's incomparable voice. The liner notes say; The Songs There's a Lull in My Life Night Wind Verve Records VSTC 201 rr |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Deckman Date: 06 Oct 01 - 09:27 PM One of my very most favorites ... except the gender is wrong here ... is Tom Paxton's "WILD FLYING DOVE." Oh well, maybe she could re-write it. GREAT THREAD! Thanks for sharing. CHEERS, Bob |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: mytoycar Date: 06 Oct 01 - 01:32 PM It might sound corny but My favorite "love song" is You Belong to me, it was done recently done by Vonda sheperd for Ally mcbeal if your interested I cud look up the lyrics. tash |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Firecat Date: 06 Oct 01 - 11:55 AM Well, this isn't a folk song, but I think S Club 7's "Two In A Million" is beautiful for if you're in love. |
Subject: Lyr Add: THIS LOVE WILL CARRY (Dougie Maclean) From: forty two Date: 06 Oct 01 - 07:24 AM Mandy wrote What's "This Love Will Carry" Dougie Maclean web site: http://www.dougiemaclean.com THIS LOVE WILL CARRY - Maclean It's a thin line that leads us and keeps a man from shame. Dark clouds quickly gather along the way we came. There's fear out on the mountain and death out on the plain. There's heartache and heartbreak in the shadow of the flame. CHORUS: This love will carry, this love will carry me. I know this love will carry me. This love will carry, this love will carry me. I know this love will carry me. The thinnest web will tangle; the sweetest flower will fall; But somewhere in the distance, we will try and catch it all. Success lasts for a moment and failure's always near, As you look down at your blistered hands as turns another year. CHORUS These days are golden; they must not waste away. Our time is like that flower and soon it will decay. Though by storms we're beaten, uncertainty is sure. Like the coming of the dawn, it's ours forever more. CHORUS

He sang me a song last night, it was "Your love keeps liftin' me"
I am still feeling shakey and walking round with a silly smile on my face. |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: mousethief Date: 04 Oct 01 - 05:56 PM Elton John's "Your Song" is very nice. Alex |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Liz the Squeak Date: 04 Oct 01 - 05:30 PM I've seen Gervase sing this.... to a rather nice blonde lady I might add.... it was sick makingly sloppy, he's fibbing when he says he's a curmudgeonly old cynic.... not a dry seat in the house..... I just got the dry heaves, so I AM a curmudgeonly old cynic... if women can be curmudgeons? But his fortune is pitiful and small.... I had to buy him lunch this week! LTS |
Subject: Lyr Add: BONNET AND SHAWL (Dave Webber) From: Gervase Date: 04 Oct 01 - 06:49 AM For a bloke, the Dave Webber song Bonnet and Shawl isn't bad as a declaration of love... BONNET AND SHAWL (Dave Webber) As recorded by Dave Webber (and Anni Fentiman and others on the chorus) on "Bonnet & Shawl" (1996)
Now, madam, I've waited a very long time,
CHORUS: And I'll show you the sun 'cross the fields in the morn.
Now I know that me fortune be pitiful small,
Now I'm thinking it likely as you'll never be mine,
Now, madam, I see by the look in your eye, |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Jim Dixon Date: 03 Oct 01 - 11:08 PM How about "Seeds of Love" which is in DT? It contains some rather obscure symbolism. Keep him guessing what it means. |
Subject: Lyr Add: FALLEN (Lauren Wood) From: Long Firm Freddie Date: 03 Oct 01 - 02:28 PM My darling wife tells me this song sums up how she feels about me. Lucky, ain't I?
Lauren Wood---Fallen
I can't believe it, you're a dream comin' true.
You are the one who's led me to the sun.
And I want to tell you, you control my rain..
You are the one who's led me to the sun.
I can't believe it, you're a dream comin' true.
And I was not looking, was content to remain. LFF |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Skipjack K8 Date: 03 Oct 01 - 09:36 AM Are they the ones with sore knees that Michael Palin ministered to? Alas, Mands, as much as I'd like to, I'm told that when free-reeders interbreed, the blood gets even weaker. Blushfest. Enjoy your nirvana. I know of what you speak. Skipjack |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: GUEST,mandalodeon Date: 03 Oct 01 - 09:08 AM Skipjack, having looked at you picture and your wit here on the mudcat, if I hadn't already fallen ......theres a good chance I could have fallen in your direction. You have no objection to fallen women I hope I suppose the missus wouldn't be so keen....ah well in my dreams Mandy |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: GUEST,Skipjack Date: 03 Oct 01 - 05:01 AM Played and sang Roseville Fair at the session in the Sloop last night, on the strength of this thread. I found an MP3 file at http://www.pelicancrossing.net/roseville.htm It's a terrific recording by Wendy Grossman. Oh, and Betty, you made my day. Blush. Skipjack |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Herga Kitty Date: 03 Oct 01 - 02:29 AM Of course Andy Barnes started the Last Leviathan as a love song to Jan..... |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Mr Red Date: 02 Oct 01 - 07:23 PM Don't ry and write the song yourself. my efforts produced the immortal "My Love is Like a Chocolate Box" and "Here Comes Trouble Boys", If they hadn't been the results they would have been excruciaitingly embarrassing - I am sure. Good luck and just be yourself. |
Subject: Lyr Add: THE LOYAL LOVER From: Herga Kitty Date: 02 Oct 01 - 06:06 PM Was going to suggest the Rose but LtS got there first. Also, of course, Lennon & McCartney's "I will". Or, if you want to be traditional: I'll weave my love a garland, it shall be set so fine I'll set it round with roses, with lilies, pinks and thyme And I'll present it to my love when he comes home from sea For I love my love, and I love my love, because my love loves me. I would I were an arrow that sped into the air I'd seek him as a sparrow, and if he were not there How swiftly I'd become a fish to search the raging sea For I love my love etc I would I were a reaper I'd seek him in the corn, Or if I were a keeper, I'd hunt him with my horn I'd blow a blast when found at last beneath the greenwood tree For I love my love etc

Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Liz the Squeak Date: 02 Oct 01 - 02:36 PM Alright, Murray, it's James TAYLOR!! It was bloody 6.00am when I posted that! Mandleodeodeodorant or whatever, been there, done that, got the bits in a drawer somewhere..... I loved a bit more than he did though.... still not sure where we stand after all this time!! I've fallen out of love, but never out of friendship. Mrs Duck - long story, short version.... One guy I totally lusted after, drooled, slobbered, everything damp and sticky after, ended up being a complete and utter shit, and I still have the fractured skull to prove it.... because when he stopped kissing, he started kicking. I prefer to start slow, have a friend and some mutual respect first. Besides, the old lust folicles are slowing down now.... not a lot gets it going these days.... well, maybe Skipjack.... and Sean Connery of course, then there's that guy I see on the way to work, on his motorbike, all dressed in leather he is.... Oh, and Michael Dorn (Worf in Star Trek Next Gen).... and David Duchovny.... Roger the Penguin.... that tall bloke from Sheffield..... LTS |
Subject: Lyr Add: WHITBY LOVESONG From: Mrs.Duck Date: 02 Oct 01 - 01:37 PM You old cynic you LtS!! I personnally favour having all the flutters in my erogenous bits first then making friends later. At least then if it turns out your not suited you've had a damn good time trying to find out. Geoff sang 'Roseville Fair' to me down on one knee in a crowded room so I've always favoured that as a love song even if it is a man to a lady. Whitby Lovesong The harbour lights were shining bright When I met you on that first night You took my hand and held me near Now we have found a love so dear We walked along hand in hand And stopped to listen to a band You kissed my cheek I feel it still Now we have found a love so real. We took a stroll down by the beach And I felt love was in my reach We drank a glass or two of wine Now we have found a love so fine You sang a song of endless love As seabirds circled up above You laid me down and loved me there Now we have found a love so rare Now we have found a love so rare was my reply. |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: GutBucketeer Date: 02 Oct 01 - 11:26 AM "Lean on Me" has always captured for me what love is all about. We had it played at our wedding. JAB |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: GUEST,Mandalodeon Date: 02 Oct 01 - 11:25 AM Rich, I will enjoy, I am enjoying and hope to go on enjoying for a very long time. Mandy |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: GUEST Date: 02 Oct 01 - 11:20 AM 20 years ago my wife and i started as co-workers, then colleagues, friends and ultimately lovers and mates. I remember that dizzy feeling too! I wrote a song especially for her...but after all these years, its still too poignant for me to sing directly to her... Enjoy your love, it's one of the great positive forces in this world. Rich McCarthy |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: GUEST,Mandalodeon Date: 02 Oct 01 - 11:03 AM I feel your leg under the table Leaning into mine I feel renewed I feel disabled By these bonfires in my spine I don't know who the arsonist was Which incendiary soul But all I ever wanted Was just to come in from the cold
Good old Joni, she just about describes how I feel, but unfortunately my voice and hers......well perhaps I could try |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: bradfordian Date: 02 Oct 01 - 10:00 AM And talking of Stan Rogers,if your guy wanted to sing one back to you, Mandy, may I recommend THE LOCK KEEPER? |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Skipjack K8 Date: 02 Oct 01 - 08:42 AM Mandy, if you were a bloke, my tip would be Roseville Fair. It's in the DT, and is a hopelessly happy song of falling in lurve to the starins of the fiddle and the banjo. Quite beautiful. Skipjack |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: GUEST,Mandalodeon Date: 02 Oct 01 - 08:35 AM I wish I could put into words the way I feel, we started as friends, became good friends, then lusted each other and now love........... I don't think the feeling can be explained, only those who have felt it can know what I mean. Mandy |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Micca Date: 02 Oct 01 - 08:14 AM I have always liked the Beatles song " in My Life" for this scenario, preferably done by other than the Beatles (perhaps ala Judy Collins on "Colours of the day") or of course, write your own!! |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: CharlieA Date: 02 Oct 01 - 06:48 AM another good Stan Rogers song is "lies" from his live in alberta album. Cxxx Another who knows just how you feel |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Gillie Date: 02 Oct 01 - 06:44 AM How about "The Constant Lover"? Ch Singing sweetly and completly Songs of pleasure and of love For my heart is with him altogether Though I live not where I love
Gillie Having recently fallen in love myself, I understand |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Murray MacLeod Date: 02 Oct 01 - 06:08 AM LTS, in which movie does James Stewart sing "You've Got a Friend?" "Shenandoah", perhaps. at Martha's graveside ? "Harvey" to his invisible rabbit friend? My memory is not what it was ...........:-) Murray |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: GUEST,Mandalodeon Date: 02 Oct 01 - 03:41 AM LTS - you describe it exactly, even down to changing of the underwear! And to clarify things I am a woman who wants to sing to a wonderful man Thanks for all the suggestions so far Mandy |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: JohnInKansas Date: 02 Oct 01 - 02:06 AM I've always though that "Put Another Log on the Fire" was one of the most touching and tender songs I could sing for my fair one - not because of what it says, but because it tells both of us that "that ain't how it is with us (I hope). The "(I hope)" is the message. Shortly after we met, we stumbled into a Karioke session at the pool hall, and sang together (unaccompanied - they didn't have the music) Tom Lehrer's "When You Are Old And Gray." It was a great "turn-on" for us both (but maybe the fact we were both already a little ragged around the edges helped). Maybe what I'm trying to verbalize (I often don't know for sure) is that a song that says what he means to you is not as good as a song that expresses what you share? John |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Liz the Squeak Date: 02 Oct 01 - 01:26 AM ER.. on a Beatles theme, I'd go for Help! Then there is 'the Rose', and Martym Wyndham Reid's 'I will love you'.... I always find James Stewart's 'You got a friend' best. It's all very well falling passionately in love with someone, so that your stomach flips and your heart does the samba whilst your face goes scarlet and your naughty bits start trying to tell your brain what to do because the aforementioned brain is sitting there doing sod all, and you need to go change your underwear, but a friend is one who loves you despite the palpitations, hot flashes, stupid expression, intestinal noises and frequent changes of clothing. Make a friend first. Fall in love with them later. Good luck. And there are several threads for the 'how can I miss you if you won't go away' or 'where did our love go?' type songs that you will probably end up needing in a few months, maybe a year if your lucky..... Am I an old cynic or what?? LTS |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: sophocleese Date: 01 Oct 01 - 10:09 PM Fleetwood Mac's Songbird is a rather lovely one. |

Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Dave the Gnome Date: 01 Oct 01 - 08:10 PM Hi Sinsull - I took "I want to find the perfect song to sing to my lovely man" to be an indication that it was F singing for M. It could of course be M singing for M but in either case my advice still applies, I believe! And how did you know that you could refer to me as 'Gnome'? Were you the one I gronkled my fluthreds at in the Cave last year? Cheers
Dave the Gnome |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: SINSULL Date: 01 Oct 01 - 07:43 PM Gnome? Where exactly are you looking? |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Dave the Gnome Date: 01 Oct 01 - 07:20 PM Looking at the original post it looks like a lady singing for a gent. I think "I will come to your house, bring some beer and then take my clothes off" would be perfect. But as I cannot write an appropriate tune give "The first time ever I saw your face" a try";-) (Listen to it by Peggy Seeger if you doubt me!) Cheers

Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: GUEST,MudWeasel Date: 01 Oct 01 - 05:01 PM Hands down, one of my favorite love songs ever: 45 Years by Stan Rogers.

Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: CharlieA Date: 01 Oct 01 - 11:21 AM "When you say nothing at all" is a great one - don't know who did it originally but the 1st recording i heard was Alison Kraus. Cxxx |

Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: GUEST,Mandolodeon Date: 01 Oct 01 - 11:15 AM What is "this love will carry"?
I already let him listen to "I'm your man" - I think he thought I was a bit kinky! But it made him smile
Its great to feel that wobbly feeling when I go to see him, or just giving him a neck kiss. I would love to dedicate a special song to him |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: Grab Date: 01 Oct 01 - 10:57 AM Leonard Cohen - "I'm your man".

Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: GUEST,MC Fat Date: 01 Oct 01 - 10:48 AM Try Dougie McLean 'This love will carry'. It's a smart nice song |
Subject: RE: Help: Fallen in Love From: GUEST,mgarvey@pacifier.com Date: 01 Oct 01 - 10:47 AM I vote for the one that Priscilla Herdman sings..is it the Drover's Sweetheart or another..."as if I wouldn't take his hand without the golden glove.." |
