I readily admit I could not sit still for any of those songs. Its hard to dance while driving, but it IS possible when the radio plays certain tunes.<BR/><BR/>Perplex, great Queens songs. Fat-Bottomed Girls always makes me smile as does U2's "Big Girls are Best", there's a lot to be said for being voluptuous :)<BR/><BR/>Bond .... the truth comes out...I love you, you love me, we're a great big family....Bar L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11100008292699584336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11886706.post-78221018871889420192007-10-19T13:18:00.000-07:002007-10-19T13:18:00.000-07:00Perplex, you have guts admitting to Andy Gibb :)Go...Perplex, you have guts admitting to Andy Gibb :)<BR/><BR/>Goober, I am suddenly craving a margarita<BR/><BR/>Malcolm - ohhhhh great choices I smiled reading it.Bar L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11100008292699584336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11886706.post-40575410692926939082007-10-19T13:13:00.000-07:002007-10-19T13:13:00.000-07:00OK, I know I am very predictable, BUT...

Allman Brothers, Eat A Peach, Mountain Jam... the way the song builds and crescendo's and then comes down and does it again and again...the interplay of guitars, Duane's slide making the bird chirping sounds...it impacts me emotionally and when it is done, I feel all the pain that had been inside has flowed out of my body...<BR/><BR/>Well that or the theme from Barney ... THAT was a joke!Vinny "Bond" Marinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07033455144526676371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11886706.post-19060685532898808642007-10-19T00:49:00.000-07:002007-10-19T00:49:00.000-07:00ABBA!

It's so kitschy and 50's rock 'n roll.<BR/><BR/>Songs that get me jumping on the furniture are Misty Mountain Hop by Led Zeppelin, Cinnamon Girl by Neil Young and probably more than any other song Easy Rider by Jimmy Hendrix. I defy you to sit still while that song is playing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11886706.post-39834479115934570012007-10-18T16:06:00.000-07:002007-10-18T16:06:00.000-07:00Usually, something heavy and loud.Usually, something heavy and loud.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11886706.post-5456710674347179652007-10-18T11:19:00.000-07:002007-10-18T11:19:00.000-07:00Actually, I listen to those when I'm already happy...Actually, I listen to those when I'm already happy.
