2. I walk under ladders

I think is the name of it.

3. "I'm Lucky"

Great song.

5. I love her!

I have always loved her since the first time I heard Show Some Emotion. And I finally got to see her play last summer for the first time. Wow she was good! And she still looks great! It's like she never ages.

I like pretty much all of her songs.

I adore her.

7. Thanks for the memory-prod

I haven't heard Joan in YEARS!

(PS I went for 'Show Some Emotion')

10. Yeah, something just brought her music to mind.

All of a sudden I started singing "Down To Zero", and I got real nostalgic for JA.

My own fave is "The Weakness In Me". But they're all good. "I Love It When You Call Me Names" and "Me Myself I" always make me sing along.

8. Practically anything off her first album

"Save Me" "Love and Affection" "Water with the Wine"

It truly IS all good.

9. SAVE ME!

Sinking.....caught up in a world in motion. Such a strange sensation.....


Exquisite.

11. Gotta go with

'I Love It When You Call Me Names,' with 'What Do Boys Dream' a close second. Adrian Belew was on The Key, that was the reason I originally bought it, but wow -- what a voice. She's great, glad to see she's still at it.

12. Numero uno, livin' for right now...

and that's L-IV-ING when I'm here with you.

I like them all but I had to vote for "I'm Lucky" because it's a part of my coming out story. Where would I be without the lesbians in my life?! ;)

I just remembered another - "somedays the bear will eat you; somedays you eat the bear!" LOL. :hi: Great thread, mac56!

13. Don’t need a bracelet

No salt for my shoulder
I don’t own a rabbit
No clover
No heather
No cross
No wonder I’m lucky
I’m lucky
I’m lucky
I can walk under ladders

[Duncan Grant]

14. Hey, when I get it right - will you tell me please?

You always say
When I just messed up
Did bad
Done wrong
Gone too far
Caused such pain
Such shame
I'm illegal
See one sided
No fair
A sin there
Act queer
Odd ball

I mishandle
You trample
So strong
Wear crown
Under foot
Put upon
Hold down

Hey when I get it right
Will you tell me please
I wanna know...
(I had to see Joan's name on the front page for a few more minutes :kick: .)
