I lived the Beatles. I was actually one of the lucky ones that sat in front of their TV & watched them for the 1st time on The Ed Sullivan Show. I listened to parental disgust over the long hair. I cried when they got married because THEY WERE NOT SUPPOSE TO DO THAT! I cursed them when they broke up. I missed them. But the funny thing was, I didn't have to. Yes, they moved on. BUT they left us their music...
One of my FAVORITE Rock & Roll Groups of all time is CCR-Credence Clearwater Revival...Born on the Bayou being THE one that STILL makes the adrenilin swoosh through me, and gives me the urge to dance like there's no tomorrow...but then, what music DOESN'T do that...
For instance, the Red Hot Chili Peppers..."whatchu got you gotta give it to your mama, whatchu got you gotta give it to your papa...give it away, give it away, give it away now..." ...love it!
And what about John Cougar Mellancamp??? I LOVE his music! ~It hurts so good...~
I LOVE my old set of THE DOOR's GREATEST HITS...now get this...ON 8 TRACK!
I think I have to say that my most all time favorite song is "Duke of Earl" by Gene Chandler...for reasons of the heart....
These oldies still grab my rock & roll heart and make me bounce: 96 Tears, Gloria, Satisfaction, RESPECT, Mustang Sally, Louie Louie, Close To You, Traces, Hello I LOVE YOU, This Magic Moment(ahhhhh), Light My Fire, Your Precious Love, and Angel Baby ..because I love you, I love you I doooo, angel baaby, myyyy angel baaabby... ummm I LOVE that song! AND I can see Esai Morales slow dancing to it in Mi Familia...umhmm)...
Hey Tiff, thanks for the CD of nothing but VERY COOL 80's music!! I love it all! The GO-GO's, MJ, ABBA, and the good old Dazz Band - ~So let it whip, let's whip it baby, let's whip it right, let's whip it baby, whip it all night...~ very cool..!!
I LOVE my music loud but ONLY when there is a lot of base in it...otherwise soft and mellow deserves to be treated just that..soft...BUT..those of you who KNOW me, know that the boomp boomp of base feeds me ENERGY! I DO love soft and mellow, but it just might end up putting me to sleep...and...we couldn't have that now, could we?!...:)
I kissed Harry Chapin...~sigh~... and I will never forget the moment, and I will never forget him... ~It was raining hard in Frisco...~
I Hate Hanson's MBOP, I'll bop you one, all the way to my little haircutting chambers here...HA!
I love to hate Neil Diamond, but am beginning to hate myself because I found myself tolerating him the other day...aughhhhhhh
There's this guy that works at my fav coffee shop that was a Jim Morrison of the Doors, look-a-like! Same hair, clothes, voice, attitude...He was either caught in a 60's time warp or was Jim re-incarnated! I HATED the day I walked in and saw the haircut! aughhhh...It was all in the hair..The thrill is now gone, and so are the latte's that would LIGHT MY FIRE...
I loved Herman's Hermits! Everytime I hear one of their songs, I instantly think of my cousin Kaye and have a flashback memory of us dancing in her living room! We went to different schools & would show each other the dance steps popular at our schools AND of course we would talk about BOYS!! Sometimes I'd spend the night & we'd have SO MUCH fun being crazy together, but then we'd get out of control and ALWAYS end up in trouble with her mom for carrying on ALL NIGHT as if it were one big party...hehe.. I can still hear it "Okay young ladies, it's time to stop that and go to sleep now"... bwahahahahahaa... then... "OKAY you giggleboxes, STOP THAT RIGHT NOW and GO TO SLEEP... and I REALLY mean it"... which would set off the uncontrollable... and then the final dreaded "Now listen here you little stinkers, if you don't BE QUIET, and go to sleep RIGHT NOW, I'm going to SEPARATE YOU... Have you ever gigglewhispered?
I also always loved being with her because we used to sit on the sidewalk and take turns singing songs... We'd sit there and sing our hearts out... and then the next minute we'd be sneaking off to the store and buying tons of bubble gum and shoving as much of it into our mouths as we could so we could have a bubble blowing contest, WHILE we were climbing trees... :)
We also always used to get into so much trouble when we'd go to our grandparents house. Not intentially of course, but it never seemed like we could do anything right. Everytime we got together it was the same ritual, "Get out of those trees, girls don't climb trees", "Get off the roof", "Don't pick the rhubarb", "Don't sneak off to the store", "Don't put that whole pack of gum in your mouth" "Don't let those boys chase you" "Sit down and be quiet, Lawrence Welk is on"... haha, you gotta love em...
I loved the day my Uncle Russ drove me to school in his shiney brand new cherry red convertible IN his army uniform... I thought I was SO COOL riding with my dreamboat Uncle in his cool red car!!
I loved how I used to have so much fun with my friend Jeanne back in my Jr./Sr. High School days in Minnesota. We would talk all day long at school and then talk all night long too. It got so I'd get grounded off the phone between certain times because my Mom could never get through at home. When we went to the movies, which was EVERY Friday night, we'd talk through the movie too, and people were always trying to get us to shut up. I don't think they were ever successful, were they Jeanne?!! I mean, come on, we were teen age girls with important things to discuss!! What was so important?? Well, BOYS of course! We were pizza fiends too, and we'd always cook those frozen Totino's pizza's, and every time we did, we ended up with "crisp" pizzas because we talked so much we'd forget about them!
I LOVE George Strait...sigh...He is the ONLY one I would leave home for :)... But his white hat and guitar would HAVE to come with the package... Okay, I'll take the tour bus too... and... why yes George, I'd love to get up there and sing with you... but ONLY if you insist...
Well, actually, you can also throw in Esai Morales..Bob in LaBamba! My favorite part in that movie is when Bob's girlfriend is MAJORLY TICKED OFF and is screaming and yelling and reaches down and picks up a handfull of dirt and throws it at him with all her might and says...Im not your PUTA!!...I love it, love it, love it... ~I wanna beee BOBBY'S GIRL, I wanna be BOBBY'S GIRL, that's the most important thing to meeeee, cuz IF I were BOBBY'S GIRL, if I were Bobby's Girl, what a thankful thankful girl I'd beeee~...:)
My favorite movies to watch over over: Almost Famous, Uncle Buck, Christmas Vacation, Christmas Story, Book of Love, Romancing the Stone, An Affair to Remember, The Egg & I, Home Alone 1&2, Footloose, Magnificent Obsession, ANYTHING ELVIS, Pure Country, Sweet Dreams, Dumb & Dumber, Top Gun, The Great Outdoors, Ferris Buellers Day Off, and last but not least, LA BAMBA! If you haven't seen any of them, you MUST rent them, for I have spoken...
Some of my favorite christian songs are: Shout to the Lord, As the Deer, Times of Refreshing,The Lords Prayer, Amazing Grace..
I love it how you can always count on people to dump their classic records at garage sales!!...No one wants to hang on the those old records anymore so they practically GIVE them away...so I scoop them up and smile to myself as I add them to my EVER GROWING classic record collection...
I love cereal...Its my favorite bedtime snack...but I hate it when I go to have some and go to get milk from the fridge and there sits the empty jug...
My alltime favorite celebration splurge is Asti Spumanti Champagne and Cheesecake...yummm...Problem is, there's never anything to celebrate so I never get to have it...too bad, so sad...
My alltime favorite treat yourself to your last dying wish snack splurge is salsa, chips and a chilled glass of blush chablis... oh man, can I have my last wish in advance? Like every day until THE day?...chill Deb...
I can't believe that I ALMOST FORGOT to mention that I LOVE Marlon Brando... sorry MB... He's hangin on the wall in my den... I JUST LOVE all of his old movies... Dontcha think he was SO COOL!!.. ummm hummm...
My absolute ALL TIME favorite movie one-liner is (and my family knows this as they hear it EVERY SINGLE DAY) from Sweet Dreams, the Patsy Cline story. She says, IT MAKES ME WANT TO SCREAM AND CLAW MY FACE! Ahhhh yes, the neverending drama queen...I think its time to start a separate..Favorite One Liners From Movies Page...I've got a million of them...
I LOVED the day my dad said... Hey Deb, you've gotta hear this song... the minute I did I fell in love... Into The Mystic... I COMPLETELY LOVED how Van Morrison wanted to ~Rock my gypsy soul~
Drama Queens, ALWAYS get what they want...its a rule...
I LOVE AND LIKE JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING.... HATE RARELY SQUEEZES IN...BUT, I USUALLY HAVE ENOUGH LOVE STORED UP TO SQUEEZE IT BACK OUT REAL QUICK... Dear Lord, thank you for the gift of hearing...Having a brother and sister that are hearing impaired, has given me the greatest insight on being so very thankful that your plan allowed me to be able to hear...I promise to pass anything on I can to my sister with this great gift you have given me...You have already taken my brother, so I am hoping that you are taking care of things on your end...You also have my dad, who is the one who got me hooked on being a Jukebox in the first place... And now you have my Mom... I hope you're a little crowded for a while... In Jesus' name I pray...Amen
