I'm like Rick, I have some Beatles songs on my winamp playlist like "Hey Jude", "Let it be", "Come together" and "Komm, gib mir deine hand" (German version of... Why don't you hold my hand).

:lol: German Beatle songs ... "Hallo Jude" ... hmm they should find an alternative for that, the song is not intended to be a lovesong for a Jew :wink:

Is there a German version of Hey Jude? It doesn't necessarily mean Jude if it's pronounced the same way we say it. Like the same way English-speakers say Jude. :)

I must've listened to Hey Jude a minimum of one zillion times when it came out. I loved that song, and the funny thing is, I still do.

The weird part is that it's a McCartney song. I always would have sworn that it was a Lennon song, but McCartney and Lennon apparently liked to do that, they'd write songs in the style of the other just to show off how well they could do it... and they did, they did do it really well.

Oh... I remember Corey Hart... I wear my sunglasses at night ... 8)

I loved his "I Can't Help Faling in Love with You" - I danced to that at my wedding. (I was never an Elvis fan)

I am listening to william shantner new CD "has been" oh my god I have played it so many times, I cannot get enough of it :p I think it just might be album of the year as some have suggested. It is so so so awesome. Everyone who hears it playing says who is that? no it cannot be captain kirk....god it is so good....here is a new york times review.

Complete the following sentence: "Ben Folds, Nick Hornby, Brad Paisley, Joe Jackson, Aimee Man ... " The chances of an average life-form guessing "William Shatner" are equal to the Starship Enterprise turning out to be made entirely of smoked salmon. But these are the crew members for the further musical voyages of Captain Kirk. Words cannot ... capture the ... delivery. The ... impossibility of working out how seriously to take this mission of super-sincerity.
You can see Spock with a big, specially shaped pair of headphones: "Diverse, and most illogical, captain." Here is Shatner speaking on success, his wife's bad habits, what he has missed in his children's upbringing (class lyric: "Get a little daughter-dad action going"). Folds has produced this to ballady, genre-hopping music. You'll Have Time, a blues, beams Shatner up into sprechgesang: "Live like you're gonna diiiiiiie, because you're gonna./ It's going to happen because it's happened to a lotta people I know." And then there's the jewel, the cover version of Common People. This CD is beyond good or bad. It is from a world where concepts such as "unique" and "indispensible" live happily alongside "hilariously, brain-tearingly wrong".
