OMG, another movie I have to see now... LOL

Well here's a couple videos to help us back to Goofy-Thread-Ville. Thanks for hanging late with me T-Man, and thanks for being such a sweetheart:

Pat Benatar – Fire and Ice

Joan Jett - Do You Wanna Touch Me

---

[Tusk]

I never saw the whole movie (about older people I coudn't relate to at the time). It has Richard Dreyfus and I think it did well, but by all means I'm not promoting the movie, just the song

Staying up and working so don't mind being company

I might have posted her before, but Suzi Quatro was the UK's version of Joan Jett before "Joan Jett" , a rocker chick

This was her biggest hit, a schmaltz duet


Her 'harder" stuff


....again Holy "Everything is connected, Batman!!"

I just found out she did a song on the soudtrack to........"The Runaways!" LOL


Or maybe I knew and forgot.... It's late LOL

[LovinDaHaley]

^ Awesome Blossoms- I like it! Thank you fine sir

[LovinDaHaley]

^^ Thanks again for the SQ T-Man, I wish her and Chris Norman would have done more together. That duet you posted is really fantastic, especially their chemistry. Oh well, I still really love Chris Norman and the band he performed with during the 60's, 70's and 80's, "Smokie":

Chris Norman - Midnight Lady

Smokie - Needles and Pins

Again, your music knowledge supercedes mine, I knew the song "Needles and Pins" but I never drew the connection that was the guy singing with Suzi Q

Rook to Queen's pawn eh? OK, I conceed. We'll call it a stalemate.

Tears For Fears - "Everybody Wants To Rule The World"
Robert Plant and Alison Krauss performing - Gone Gone Gone

Yes, these two videos have hidden meaning for our game T-Man

I've listened to these a few times now, even looked them up on wiki and admit to defeat here too

I'm thinking it has something to do with winning or losing "The Name of the Game" "Chess" "Everybody Wants to Rule the World". "Gone, Gone, Gone" could imply giving up or dismissal ("Honey Honey" doesn't fit, though ).....
Hint?

If I'm in the right arena, then this vid from one of ABBA's biggest hits (that's saying something )
The Winner Takes it All

"The God's may roll the dice, their minds as cold as ice"

Or am I "Cold as Ice"

LOL - You just beat me on posting that. But mine is better (that claim will be funnier after you read the rest of this post, I hope).

Context Conext Context Dear Watson

Everybody Want To Rule The World

I was poking fun at the competitive nature of all the posts we did about ABBA, most specifically the playful banter around “One Night in Bangkok”.

We all have our likes and dislikes, and we all seem to think that ours are where it’s at; but really, when it comes to "good" or "bad" music and movies, more often than not, it’s primarily a matter of personal preference, not a matter of good or bad or who’s right or wrong.

And sure, I probably ere on the side of “can’t we all just get along”. As a matter of fact, when conversing face to face with people about movies and music I use phrases such as, “I liked it” or “I think you might like it”. I rarely make a claim that something is good or bad. Not that I don't like confrontation <grin>, but it never ceases to amaze me how offended people get when others disagree with them about movies and music. For example, when someone claims a movie is bad, when someone else thinks it’s good, it’s usually taken as a personal insult to someone’s intelligence or something. I’ve seen too many arguments over what is mainly and simply just a matter of personal preference, IMHO.

And I know that so many people don’t even understand what makes such things good or bad, on a technical level. But that doesn’t mean much to me because the arts are more about feeling and such than technicality. So I don’t feel that I have any right to consider what I like as having more validity than what someone else likes, not for any reason.

Gone, Gone Gone

In addition to the age difference yet chemistry between Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, I thought it was a cute and fun way of saying that it’s probably a good idea to be careful with our little playful competitions. Not that we ever read each other wrong, but who knows how other people might take some of our crazies.

LOL you over-estimate me... So much to guess out of two videos....Sort of about winning or losing, so I was on the right path?

Fans of ABBA have long been defensive for reasons you might guess, so there's a little of that

Like you say music is personal, and when we discuss music, by definition, we talk about how it affects us personally. If you wanted to talk chord structure or sharps and flats, then I couldn't contribute.

Talk about what we love and why we love it? That's something I can jump head first into LOL
It made me feel good learning that posting the Lily Allen video exposed her to new fans...

Besides, playful banter never hurt 'no one'

[midnightblues]

Sharps raises the pitch of the note, flats lower the pitch.

^ LOL - Bluesman - Good one!

^^ For sure T-Man, agreed on all points. And you should get extra points for that "winning and losing" thing (considering how nonsensical I can be at times ). -All well played and fun, fine Sir. IMHO, it was a draw. You're a sharp shooter and a straight talker, and I'm a sneaky bitch who plays dirty (but I've given y'all fair warning about that before, haven't I)

Hell, Buzz even gave me a T-Shirt:
