Yeah I know, and that would be my favourite album if I had one.
Sorry wonkers, back to Jonathan Foer we go. 7949. alistairconnor - 11/29/2005 11:08:39 AM Not familiar with Barth. But I approve of your other references, Wonk. So I'd better have a look at Foer. 7950. wonkers2 - 12/4/2005 8:40:47 PM John Updike is being interviewed live for three hours on C-Span. 7951. wabbit - 12/7/2005 12:38:29 AM So let's see who actually looks at this thread.
What are your favorite Christmas/whatever-Holiday tunes? I thought it might be fun to put together a Mote playlist and stream it through New Year's.
Ms. No will be keeping track of Motie song requests. Please limit yourself to 2-3 songs. If I don't have them already/can't get them, either a) be prepared to email me an mp3, or b) have an alternate request in mind.
Ms. No, Arky and myself have put together a sample of what we have in mind. It can be found here. If you want to play and you have some song requests, please post them here. I don't think I'll run out of bandwidth, but mirrors are welcome.
Caveat: I am going to be in the hospital as of 12/12 for at least five days. If I have your song requests by 12/10 (maybe 12/11 if I can still type), I will update the existing stream. If not, I will update as soon as I'm home.
I don't have much in the way of Kwanzaa or Hanukkah music, but I can look around and see what's available. Otherwise, it will be primarily Christmas stuff. 7952. Magoseph - 12/7/2005 2:09:44 PM "All I Want for Christmas Is You", Mariah Carey.
Best wishes for your hospital stay, wabbit. 7953. jexster - 12/7/2005 2:57:22 PM My all time favorite Crimmus tune?
Why is there any contest?
Klara solen på himmelen den lyser
Makes me cry..tears of Holiday Joy 7954. jexster - 12/7/2005 3:01:23 PM And then there's Once in Royal David's City 7955. wonkers2 - 12/7/2005 3:03:48 PM Take charge, wabbit, hospitals can be dangerous places. 7956. jexster - 12/7/2005 3:10:36 PM Yeah...no shit..I had pneumonia and a nasty infection on my arm once..so they had me on two of the latest bug killers IV ..at the same time..
All of a sudden I was seized with chills like you wouldn't believe..lucky for me the presence of mind to note the onset came when they mixed the anti-biotics because I was on the verge of kidney failure....
Don't mean to worry you Wabbit.mostly I have be awed by the competence and orgazation of hospitals...but Wonk's right, they can be treacherous too 7957. alistairconnor - 12/7/2005 3:44:40 PM OK, you aksed for it. A challenge for the archivist :
Snoopy's Christmas, by the Royal Guardsmen.
Another one I'd like to hear again : a more difficult challenge, because I don't know the name of the artists :
"All I want for Christmas is my upper plate"
a comic duo from, I guess, the 40s, on a 78 my grandfather had...
The flip side was "I saw Mommy smoochin' Sanny Claws" 7958. marjoribanks - 12/7/2005 3:46:53 PM Christmas in Hollis: Run DMC
7959. jayackroyd - 12/7/2005 3:50:53 PM I just downloaded that song from Itunes for this year's Christmas compilation. 7960. jayackroyd - 12/7/2005 3:53:17 PM Bruce Springsteen's Santa Claus is coming to town
Merry Fucking Christmas by Mr. Garrison of South Park (I have that if you can't find it)
Joni Mitchell's River
7961. wonkers2 - 12/7/2005 4:23:21 PM I had it but lost it when my computer crashed. Please put it up for everyone to enjoy. 7962. wabbit - 12/7/2005 4:35:15 PM Ok, I have the Mariah Carey, Springsteen, Joni Mitchell, Run DMC, and Snoopy's Christmas. I think we should keep the music workplace friendly, which leaves out MFC, hysterical as it is.
AC, you are thinking of the Homer and Jethro songs, I'll see what I can do.
Jexster, Once In Royal David City is already there (King's College Choir). It is on the faint side, I'll try to jack up the volume on that one, but may not get to it until I'm back. The swedish song you would need to send me. 7963. wabbit - 12/7/2005 4:36:10 PM wonkers2, what song do you mean? 7964. alistairconnor - 12/7/2005 5:05:33 PM Homer and Jethro ! That sounds right...
Christmas candy sure is hard
I cain't even chew it just a little
But my favourite one of all
Is good old Peanut Broodle!
- Say Homer, that's Brittle!
- Buddy, without my upper plate, it is brutal!
hyuk hyuk hyuk... 7965. wonkers2 - 12/7/2005 5:40:30 PM "Merry Fucking Christmas!" 7966. Macnas - 12/7/2005 6:08:09 PM And, courtesy of Kevin Bloody Wilson:
Santa claus you cunt
Where's my fucking bike
I've unwrapped all this other junk
There's nothing what i like
I've wrote you a letter
And i've come to see you twice
You geriatric wanker
Where's my fucking bike
If i wanted a pair of fucking shoes
I would've fucking asked
This cowboy suit and ping-pong set
You can stick right up your arse
And so on and so forth..... 7967. Ms. No - 12/7/2005 6:19:43 PM Wabz,
I'm past the first hurdle and actually remembered to bring the discs with me today so I can get them to the post office at lunchtime.
