Music career

Lisa Marie is a close friend of her father's ex-girlfriend Linda Thompson. In 2003, after advice from Thompson's record producer and then-husband David Foster, she launched a career as a singer. Her debut album, To Whom It May Concern, reached # 5 on the Billboard 200 albums chart and was certified gold. To promote it she presented a concert in the UK, something that her father never did. Presley released her second album, Now What, in 2005 and it reached # 9 on the Billboard 200. It was certified gold in November 2005. Unlike her first album, Now What included a Parental Advisory sticker. Both albums as of 2007 have been certified Platinum. In August 2007, the single In the Ghetto was released. Elvis Presley originally released the single in 1969. In the new version, Lisa Marie duets with her father. The video that was simultaneously released with the single reached number one on the iTunes video sales in the week of its release.


Cultural references - facts

Her father, who called her Injun, Yisa, and Buttonhead, named one of his private aircraft, a converted CONVAIR 880 jet (original passenger capacity, 100), after her. The airplane "Lisa Marie" is currently on exhibit at the Graceland mansion museum of Elvis Presley in Memphis, Tennessee. The rock band Queen also used this for a flight, and Lisa gave Queen vocalist Freddie Mercury a scarf which belonged to her father.
She recently stated, on The Oprah Winfrey Show, that she is 5 ft 2 in (1.57 m) tall.[1]
She has a half brother, Navarone Garibaldi (b. 1 March 1987), from her mother's 22-year (ended in April 2006) relationship with Marco Garibaldi.
She attended the 10th grade at an alternative boarding school in Ojai, California, called Happy Valley School.
On her tenth birthday (1978), her mother Priscilla Presley took her to see actor John Travolta (then 24 years old); Lisa had a huge crush on him. Today, they remain friends and fellow scientologists.

Charities

Lisa Marie Presley supports several charities, including:

Presley Place, which combats homelessness in Memphis.
CCHR, a Scientology-connected group that opposes psychiatry and psychiatrists.
LEAP (Literacy, Education and Abilities Program), a Scientology-connected group affiliated with Applied Scholastics that promotes L. Ron Hubbard's studying techniques.

A taxi passenger tapped the driver on the shoulder to ask him a question. The driver screamed, lost control of the car, nearly hit a bus, went up on the footpath, and stopped centimetres from a shop window.

For a second everything went quiet in the cab, then the driver said, "Look mate, don't ever do that again. You scared the daylights out of me!" The passenger apologized and said, "I didn't realize that a little tap would scare you so much. "The driver replied, "Sorry, it's not really your fault. Today is my first day as a cab driver. I've been driving a funeral van for the last 25 years."

Good morning, hawkman. Yes, Boston, I can see where a simple tap on the shoulder could be a real problem for the brand new taxi driver. Thanks for the great bio's today, Bob.

It seems that on WA2K radio, folks, we are observing ornithology and synchronicity. This one by Lisa proves it.

And as the raven flies she feels unwelcome
She's fallen out of her tree and caught on a limb of silver lining
Her wings uncertain oh but she's still flying
Yeah little Raven I see you there

Hold your head up now
I won't try and pull your feathers out I promise
Go on dry your eyes
You know that I've forgiven you and I'm sorry
And everything till now
It wasn't that bad really
Beautiful lady

Why don't you fly with me
We'll have a chat and a cup of tea
And a long lost need to see who's really there

And you'll finally be okay with me
And I'll hear your stories
That fill your sad eyes
When you had raven hair

Hold your high up high
I know that I've been ruthless
I've been ruthless

Go on dry your eyes
You know that I've forgiven you and I'm sorry
And everything till now
It wasn't that bad really
Beautiful lady

Go on dry your eyes
Hey you finally see me - hi
And I see you

Eerie

While we await our PA pup, I discovered that a montage of nine is called a nonet. Also, be certain that you check the requirements for the new site as far as logging in, etc. Always read the announcements.

Today is supposed to be the Hawaii gathering day, and will include Mr. and Mrs. C.I.; Mr. and Mrs. yitwail; seaglass et. al.

A song for them, all.

The sweetness of your kiss
And the rhythm of your hula sway
Enchants me when you wear
Your yellow Hawaiian ginger lei.

The golden love beams
Of a yellow moon on Honolulu bay
Begs me stay and linger
With your yellow Hawaiian ginger lei.

Golden is the moon tonight
As we look up at the starry lights
As yellow as your ginger lei,
A Hawaiian gift of soft delights.

The tropic trade winds caress
Your hair gently as they say
Whispers of the fragrance of
Your yellow Hawaiian ginger lei.
Your yellow Hawaiian ginger lei.

Hawaii <<sigh>> <<sigh>>

New Logging in requirements?

A quintet of Bob's bios:

hmmm. I think I heard Madeleine Kahn sing this one in "Young Frankenstein".

Hey, Raggedy. Thanks for the lovely montage. Incidentally, for all our listeners, a link to the new stuff:

I had no idea that Victor Herbert did The Red Mill/Moulin Rouge, but I do recall Homer and Jethro making a bit of fun at Hank.

"We can't sing and we ain't funny,
Buy this record won't you honey
Poor ole Victor needs the money
Settin' the woods on fire.

Here is a quick excerpt from Cyrano which Victor is also a part of.

I AM A COURT COQUETTE THEY SAY, ROXANNE
EH BIEN! IT IS ADMITTED,
YOU'VE TRIED TO WIN ME EV'RY WAY,
AND ALL HAVE BEEN OUTWITTED.
YOU'VE BROUGHT BOUQUETS AND SERENADES,
AND POEMS FOR PERUSAL,
I'VE SENT YOU OFF TO OTHER MAIDS,
WITH A POLITE REFUSAL.
AND IF YOU CALL ME A COQUETTE,
IT IS BECAUSE I'VE NEVER MET
THE KINDRED SOUL THAT I COULD CLAIM;
AND SO I TREAT YOU ALL THE SAME.
AH! ME, HEIGH HO! AH! ME HEIGH HO!
WITH A GLANCE TO RIGHT, AND A GLANCE TO LEFT, ROXANNE
WITH A CURTSEY DEEP AND LOW,
WITH A MURMUR HERE, AND A WHISPER THERE,
AND A FLUTTER OF FAN, JUST SO.
WITH A DOWNCAST EYE, AND AN ARTFUL SIGH,
WITH A SMILE I PAY EACH DEBT.
FROM CUPID'S FETTERS FREE,
I'M HAPPY AS MAY BE;
WHO WOULDN'T BE A COURT COQUETTE.

Hey, hbg. Loved that song on the media player, and Reyn tried to send me some snow. Well, I guess you, Raggedy, and I can live vicariously. That Spike Jones YouTube was hilarious and the music was quite familiar.

Pagan Love song, Aloha, Sweet Lilani(sp). Love them, Canada, and thanks.

Here's another that I like, all.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cij6VNBH4cU

Just found out that Hank Snow did that song as well. Here is a picture and the lyrics. Little fish with a big name.



I want to go back to the little grass shack in Kealakekua Hawaii

I want to be with all the kanes and wahines that I used to know long ago

I can hear the old guitars a playing on the beach at Honaunau

I can hear the old Hawaiians saying komo mai no kaua i ka hale welakahao



It won't be long till my ship will be sailing back to Kona

A grand old place that's always fair to see (yes siree)

Well I'm just a little Hawaiian a homesick island boy

I want to go back to my fish and poi

I want to go back to my little grass shack in Kealakekua Hawaii

Where the humuhumunukunukuapuaa go swimming by

now that you've been to HAWAII , come on over to eastern ontario , but ... ...

Sorry hamburger, but I want more summer feeling...


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7g7-lL6cQU

hbg, Loved the overcoat song. The banjo and the tuba were delightful. What a unique combination of instruments. Thanks, oh shivering one.

Ah, Urs. Welcome back, and I understand that you would like The Boss no matter what he sang, but I liked that music, gal. So glad that you are feeling good; now let's just hope that squinney is feeling all right and that she has quick relief from those calcium mutants.

Here's another "breezy" tune, y'all, by a couple of great guys.

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=uXhWYIEfPCg&feature=related

Ah, that is a lot of summer, Letty! Thanks! The weather here is awful today so I need some of this.

BTW, I saw my doctor today. Everything is healing fine and I am on sick leave for two more weeks.

And here is a - well - special look at the beach. Die Fantastischen Vier 'Tag am Meer' - A day at the ocean side. Die Fantastischen Vier are veterans of German hiphop.


http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=I15XSuR251c

Glad to here you are recuperating and have that good old sick leave, Urs.

Wow! That was German rap, am I right? Well, it's the coolest rap that I have ever heard, and I could understand it.

I was thinking about Clark Gable, and recall that the last movie that he made was The Misfits. That is now considered by Hollywood to be a jinxed movie.

I think all of our listeners know Judy Garland, so I drug this one up from the archives, but Judy paid an awful price for being "too plump".

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uidUH4I3zsg

That's a very sweet song. I love it.

Now it's time for me to go to bed - good night!


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iE2lKLY7AOA

Goodnight, dear Urs. I am certain that Brahms would approve of that jazz version.

A few tears tonight, because I just recalled this song that Bud taught me, and these guys are great. My friends in Virginia Beach sent me a cd that was a concert of the group. "Four guys that sound like a million."

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djDm2JVMm9Y

Song and dance man, Clark Gable.

edgar, that's a long way from "....frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn."

I had no idea that Clark could dance. (er, don't think he could )

Just the lyrics right now, but you can imagine the melody.

- written by Herb Magidson and Allie Wrubel

Gone with the wind
Just like a leaf that has blown away
Gone with the wind
My romance has flown away

Yesterday's kisses are still on my lips
I had a lifetime of heaven at my fingertips

But now all is gone
Gone in the rapture that thrilled my heart
Gone with the wind
The gladness that filled my heart
Just like a flame
Love burned brightly, then became an empty smoke dream that has gone
Gone with the wind

letty :

i'm sure you realize that urs presented us with a germen version of spike jones playing BRAHMS LULLABY

here is charlotte church singing the LULLUBY
