WA2K Radio is now on the air

Well, listeners. I have spent most of the morning searching the archives for songs by Chick Correa/Corea

Before I comment on Bob's bios and our sweet Raggedy's celeb updates, I have to play this song. It was part of Bud Powell's legacy and the fantastic jazz piano player ,Chick did a tribute to him:





The things I used to like, I dont like any more,

I want a lot of other things Ive never had before,

Its just like my mamma says, I sit around and mourn

Pretending that I am so wonderful and knowing Im adored



Im as restless as a willow in a windstorm,

Im as jumpy as a puppet on a string,

Id say that I had spring fever,

But I know it isnt spring.



Im as starry eyed and gravely discontented,

Like a nightingale without a song to sing.

Oh, why should I have spring fever,

When it isnt even spring?



I keep wishing I were somewhere else,

Walking down a strange new street,

Hearing words I have never never heard,

From a man Ive yet to meet.



Im as busy as a spider spinning daydreams,

Im as giddy as a baby on a swing,

I havent seen a crocus or a rosebud,

Or a robin or a bluebird on the wing,

But I feel so gay in a melancholy way,

That it might as well be spring,

It might as well be, might as well be,

It might as well be spring.

Salute to both Chick Correa and Bud Powell.

Raggedy, how very wonderful of you to make Noddy a celeb. I missed that the first time around.

Thanks to all of you here who wished her well.

Now for Walt Disney.



Fairy tales can come true,
It can happen to you,
If you're young at heart.

Guess who sang that.

Goodmorning!(its night here and i am going to bed)

hows the 39th year treating you Letty?

Welcome back MissIndia. I'm holding up rather well for my age. <smile>

Would you like to request a song?

Yes, Larger than life.....by BB boys..

Well, the latest from India......My exams begin this Dec 15!!

So that means no updates from india for a while.....would you mind?

Oh, pardon me, dear. You meant the 39th Parallel in Korea. I'm sorry. We don't have any songs about that war.

Care to waltz with the Sleeping Beauty? Goodnight, India.

Here's your goodnight song, honey:


I may run and hide
When you're screamn' my name, alright
But let me tell you now
There are prices to fame, alright
All of our time spent in flashes of light

Chorus
All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger than life

Looking at the crowd
And I see your body sway, c'mon
Wishn' I could thank you in a different way, c'mon
'Cause all of your time spent keeps us alive

All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger than life

All of your time spent keeps us alive

All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger than life

Yeah, every time we're down
Yeah, you can make it right
Yeah, and that's what makes you larger than life

All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger than life

The Back Street Boys

Sinatra sang young at heart, but perhaps you have someone else in mind.

Ah, Mr. Turtle. How did you know that?

Sinatra sang a lot of them songs, but his was no fairy tale romance, right listeners?

as far as sinatra goes, mrs. turtle is fond of that song.

and here's an actual song by Armando "Chick" Corea, although the lyrics are by Neville Potter:

Sometime ago I had a dream
It was happy it was lasting
It was free
And now in life O can't you see
How we can make that dream
Into reality

O the music it was playing
O the firelight it was dancing
All the children they were singing
All the people they were loving

Sometime ago I had a dream
It was happy it was lasting
It was free
And now in life O can't you see
How we can make that dream
Into reality

O the morning sun it was
Soft and cool
O the evening breeze it was
Warm and gold
All together life had
Started to unfold -
Sometime ago

Now I am scrooge, folks. How could a turtle locate those lyrics and a Letty could not.

Thanks, Yit. AHA! his pet name was Chick.

Well, my, my, listeners. It's awfully quiet in here.

Here's an item for our Bob of Boston:



Online Encyclopedia Tightens Rules By DAN GOODIN, Associated Press Writer
2 hours, 27 minutes ago



SAN FRANCISCO - Wikipedia, the online encyclopedia that allows anyone to contribute articles, is tightening its rules for submitting entries following the disclosure that it ran a piece falsely implicating a man in the Kennedy assassinations.






Wikipedia will now require users to register before they can create articles, Jimmy Wales, founder of the St. Petersburg, Fla.-based Web site, said Monday.

The change comes less than a week after John Seigenthaler Sr., who was Robert Kennedy's administrative assistant in the early 1960s, wrote an op-ed article revealing that Wikipedia had run a biography claiming Seigenthaler had been suspected in the assassinations of the former Attorney General and his brother, President John F. Kennedy.

Even the best of our resources can be at risk, right?

96 Tears
? & The Mysterians

Too many teardrops
For one heart to be crying
Too many teardrops
For one heart to carry on

You`re way on top now since you left me
Youre always laughing way down at me
But watch out now, I`m gonna get there
We`ll be together for just a little while
And then I`m gonna put you way down here
And you`ll start crying ninety-six tears
Cry, cry

And when the sun comes up, I`ll be on top
You`ll be way down there, looking up
And I might wave, come up here
But I don`t see you waving now
I`m way down here, wondering how
I`m gonna get you but I know now
I`ll just cry, cry, I`ll just cry

Too many teardrops
For one heart to be crying
Too many teardrops
For one heart to carry on

Youre gonna cry ninety-six tears
Youre gonna cry ninety-six tears
Youre gonna cry, cry, cry, cry now
Youre gonna cry, cry, cry, cry
Ninety-six tears

Come on and lemme hear you cry, now
Ninety-six tears, woo
I wanna hear you cry
Night and day, yeah, all night long

Uh, ninety-six tears, cry cry cry
Come on, baby
Let me hear you cry now, all night long
Uh, ninety-six tears, yeah, come on now
Uh, ninety-six tears

today's untraditional holiday carol:

the 12 <politically incorrect term for poor southerner> days of <holiday> by Jeff Foxworthy:

On the 12th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...

12 pack of Bud

11 wrasslin' tickets

tin of Copenhagen

9 years probation

8 table dancers

7 packs of Red Man

6 cans of Spam

5 flannel shirts

4 big mud tires

3 shotgun shells

2 huntin' dawgs

And some parts to a Mustang GT.

Ah, dj. One must have a U to have a Q.

U2

I can't believe the news today
Oh, I can't close my eyes and make it go away
How long...
How long must we sing this song?
How long? how long...

'cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...

Broken bottles under children's feet
Bodies strewn across the dead end street
But I won't heed the battle call
It puts my back up
Puts my back up against the wall

Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday bloody sunday...)
(allright lets go!)

And the battle's just begun
There's many lost, but tell me who has won
The trench is dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters torn apart

Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday

How long...
How long must we sing this song?
How long? how long...

'cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...
Tonight...

Sunday, bloody sunday (tonight)
Tonight
Sunday, bloody sunday (tonight)
(come get some!)

Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Wipe your tears away
I wipe your tears away
(sunday, bloody sunday)
I wipe your blood shot eyes
(sunday, bloody sunday)

Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday, bloody sunday)
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday, bloody sunday)
(here I come!)

And it's true we are immune
When fact is fiction and tv reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die

The real battle yet begun (sunday, bloody sunday)
To claim the victory jesus won (sunday, bloody sunday)
On...

Sunday bloody sunday
Sunday bloody sunday...

ah, Canada, I missed your Jeff Foxworthy parody. It was absolutely delightful and jolted me out of my reverie. Thanks for that, dj.

So many groups have threatened our way of life by being iconoclasts. One such example is The Dead Kennedy's, but I won't go there.

How about a little mood music tonight listeners:



(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 smilin' in the sun
Wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna 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
Standin' 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 loose
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

have to thank the turtle for the jeff foxworthy

All right, then. It shall come to pass that the turtle and the fox will lie down together.

and for Yit:

Song Title: Do You Believe In Magic

Do you believe in magic in a young girl's heart
How the music can free her whenever it starts
And it's magic if the music is groovy
It makes you feel happy like an old time movie
I'll tell you about the magic and it'll free your soul
But it's like trying to tell a stranger about the Rock and Roll

Do you believe in magic
Dont bother to choose it
If it's just band music or Rythmn and Blues
Just go and listen
And it'll start with a smile
It wont wipe off your face no matter how hard you try

Your feet start tapping
And you cant seem to find
How you got there
So just blow your mind

If you believe in magic
Come along with me
We'll dance until morning
Yes just you and me
And maybe if the music is right
I'll meet you tomorrow so late at night

And then we're gonna dance
And Baby then you'll see
How the magic's in the music and the music's in me

Yeah Do you belive in magic yeah
Believe in the magic of the young girl's soul
Believe in the magic a Rock and Roll
Believe in the magic it can set you free
Oh.. talkin about the magic

Do you believe in magic (Do you believe like I believe)

Boulevard Of Broken Songs
Green Day/Oasis/Travis/Aerosmith

[Green Day]
I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone

[Oasis]
Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you

[Green Day]
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
and I'm the only one and I walk alone

[Oasis]
By now you shoulda somehow realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now

[Green Day]
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone

[Travis]
Every day I wake up and it's Sunday
Whatever's in my eye won't go away
The radio is playing all the usual
And what's a Wonderwall anyway

[Oasis]
Back beat, the word is on the street that the fire in your heart is
out
I'm sure you've heard it all before but you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now

[Green Day]
I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line
Of the edge and where I walk alone

[Oasis]
Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you

[Green Day]
Read between the lines
What's f**ked up and everything's alright
Check my vital signs
To know I'm still alive and I walk alone

[Oasis]
Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you shoulda somehow realized what you gotta do

[Oasis]
And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
But I don't know how

[Hook]
[Green Day]
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams

[Oasis]
Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you

[Green Day]
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams

[Oasis]
By now you shoulda somehow realized what you gotta do

[Green Day]
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk a...

[Green Day/(Oasis)]
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me (maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me)
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating (maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me)
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me (maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me saves me)
'Til then I walk alone

[Aerosmith]
Sing with me; sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
