Song threads are annoying...

[Writer]

because I see a thread title that seems deep, introspective. "Interesting!" I say to myself and click on it, only to find that they are words stolen from a song, typically accompanied by a link to youtube.

Then I slink away, disappointed. I was hoping for a little bit of intellectual arousal with my fellow DU'ers, but twas not to be.

1. I

have to say, I love that terminology. "Intellectual arousal". Well done.

:applause:

Because I'm in a silly mood today and not feeling deep, here are some poetically goofy lyrics, from Cantaloop by Us3, with a link in case you want to hear them to the music
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=055iIlEZA1Q

Groovy groovy
jazzy funky pounce bounce dance as we
Dip in the melodic sea,
the rhythm keeps flowin, it drips to MC
Sweet sugar pop
sugar pop rocks it pops ya dont stop
Till the sweet
beat drops
I show and prove
as a stick in move
Hear the poems
recited on top of the groove
Smooth, mind,
floating like a butterfly
Notes start to
float, subtle like a lullabye
Brace yourself as
the beat hits ya
Dip trip,
flip fantasia

Feel the beat
drop, jazz and hip hop
Drippin in the
dome, and mix is on the lock
Funk and fusion, a
fly illusion
Keeps ya coastin
on the river we cruisin
Up down round and
round, round the found
But nevertheless
ya gots to get down
Finesse the freak
thru the beat so unique
Ya move your feet,
the sweat from the heat

Back to the fact
I'm the mack and I know that
The way I kick the
rhymes, some would call me a poet
Funky flowin goin
on with the sweet sound
Caught in the
groove in Fantasia I'm found
Trip the tour upon
the rhymes they soar
To an infinite height
to the realm of the hardcore
Here we go off I
take ya
Dip trip
flip fantasia

Jump to the jam
boogy woogy jam slam
Bust the dialect
im the man in command
Come flow with the
sounds of the mighty mic masta
When I rhyme on
the mic I bring a sucka disasta
Beaucoup bucks and
I still rock Nike
With the razzle
dazzle star I might be
Scribble scrabble
on the microphone I babble
As I flip the
funky words, into a puzzle
Yes yes yes, on
and on as I flex
Get with the flow
words manifest
Feel the vibe from
here to Asia
Dip trip flip
fantasia


Good to see you back, Writer. :hi: :loveya:

2. We are all drifters

Singers and sisters, brothers and lovers and mothers and confidants. We were born alone. We're alone when we're gone. So while we're here we might as well just sing along.

Sorry, couldn't resist quoting lyrics from the Continental Drifters song Drifters. Don't think there's a Youtube link though :)

Thanks for inspiring me to play it on my MP3 player.

[Writer]

5. Like a drifter I was born to walk alone...

(snort) Glad I was an inspiration. ;)

[taterguy]

12. There is no Whitesnake on my MP3 player

I even had to Google those lyrics to figure out who sang that song. Different strokes for different folks I guess

[Writer]

15. It's the only line I care ever to remember about Whitesnake.

While that crap played on the radio, I listened to the Talking Heads. Yes, I am that kind of woman. ;)

3. to me music is an elemental connection

on a subconscious level...it was why you were attracted to the thread in the first place:shrug:

perhaps the author of the thread would have appreciated a comment...that is how conversation and exchange of ideas begins...

just my .02


but, then again i am as addicted to youtube as i am du:hide:














songs are just poems set to music

And I am dually addicted as well.

We will die a bunch old, lonely paupers selling our plasma to pay for high speed internet access.

8. What does that stand for?

I tend to phonetically pronounce the words I read, so I literally am reading "idgyickt." I know that it was not meant to be pronounced, however. ;)

7. Lurkers don't comment on threads... all too often, that is.

Drifters, on the other hand, comment only when they're available.

Love,

Writer the Drifter.

9. Aaaahhh....“Rock music involves a neurophysiological conditioning.....

........ in connotation or felt meaning, linking aggression and sexuality....aaaahhh... aggression linked with sexuality. ... Our basic claim is that the rock music itself induces a behavioral link between aggression and sexuality” (Drs. Daniel and Bernadette Skubik, The Neurophysiology of Rhythm). aaaahhh....uuummm.....yeah...
