This is Led Zepplins "Stairway to Heaven", interesting song with unusual lyrics (and even more unusual now).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcL---4xQYA

There was a man who told us about glittering brown gold
And he was building a stairway to heaven.
Come join us he said, for the stars are all close
Spread the Word is what we go for.
Ooh, ooh, and he was building a stairway to heaven.

There was a sign on the wall but we believed it was pure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
Did not suspect a crook, We Welcome you they sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it made us wander,
Ooh, it made us wonder.

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying and heaving.
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who stand looking.
Ooh, it made us wander,
Ooh, it really made us wonder.

And it's whispered that soon there will be a change of tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.

But in the meantime we wait, and ask why and how
It's more than a spring clean for the mission
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.

Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know,
The piper's are calling you to join them,
Dear friends, can you hear the wind blow, and did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks others we all know
Who shine white light on evil throw
And the dreams of brown gold.
Came at a price very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all is one and one is all
Be a rock, that does not roll.

As we find our own stairway to heaven.

OOOOOOOOOH
YEAH!

And back to the Platform Shoes, the flares, yes it's Disco. Abba's "Mama Mia"

We've been cheated by you since I don't know when
So we’ve made up my mind, this must come to an end
Look at me now, will you ever learn?
I don't know how but I’m suddenly in control
There's a fire within our soul
Now my memory does a bell ring
And you’d hoped we’d forget everything, w-o-o-o-oh

Mamma mia, here we go again
My my, how we can annoy you?
Mamma mia, we‘ve got our voice again?
My my, bet you don’t say I missed you
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
My, my we won’t ever let this go?
Mamma mia, all must really know,
My my, we could never let it go.

We've been angry and sad about things that you did
We can't count all the pain that we’ve been through
And you told us go, and did slam the door
I think we’ve been waiting far far far to long
You know that we’ve got strong.
In your head you can hear our voice ring
Never again will you forget everything, w-o-o-o-oh

Mamma mia, here we go again
My my, how we can annoy you?
Mamma mia, we‘ve got our voice again?
My my, bet you don’t say I missed you
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
My, my we won’t ever let this go?
Mamma mia, all must really know,
My my, we could never let it go.

I dedicate this gem to Mosquito Bite!

"Mamma mia, here we go again
My my, how we can annoy you?"

Buzz, buzz!!!

Drip.

Drip.

Drip.

Does that mean that mosquito bite overflew the outhouse?
Just askin'.......

Whew! Once on this Rock Star Roll----
You just never know!
Do-ahhh.....

I particularly like this song of Elton Johns. It doesn't need any modification.

"Skyline Pigeon"


Turn me loose from your hands
Let me fly to distant lands
Over green fields, trees and mountains
Flowers and forest fountains
Home along the lanes of the skyway

For this dark and lonely room
Projects a shadow cast in gloom
And my eyes are mirrors
Of the world outside
Thinking of the way
That the wind can turn the tide
And these shadows turn
From purple into grey

For just a Skyline Pigeon
Dreaming of the open
Waiting for the day
He can spread his wings
And fly away again
Fly away skyline pigeon fly
Towards the dreams
You've left so very far behind

Just let me wake up in the morning
To the smell of new mown hay
To laugh and cry, to live and die
In the brightness of my day

I want to hear the pealing bells
Of distant churches sing
But most of all please free me
From this aching metal ring
And open out this cage towards the sun

This song was made popular by the Hollies and Neil Diamond, this version is the Osmonds.

The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows when
But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother


So on we go
His welfare is of my concern
No burden is he to bear
We'll get there
For I know
He would not encumber me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother


If I'm laden at all
I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart
Isn't filled with the gladness
Of love for one another


It's a long, long road
From which there is no return
While we're on the way to there
Why not share
And the load
Doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy, he's my brother


He's my brother
He ain't heavy, he's my brother...

I'll claim this one. It goes with my avatar. And my heavy heart.
