apologies to MLAS for bending the rules but I couldn't not mention that show after my exhaustive search

This constitutes breaking, not bending!

Bending is what you need to do. Bend over.

I love him. Have you watched his Netflix documentary? It's good.

No, I heard something about it then immediately forgot It's probably on my queue but it doesn't hurt to double check.

 

[lavendersilk]

I expect a whole lot of vocaroos tomorrow!

Day 9: A song that you can’t help but dance to

Couldn't pick the same group back to back, so...

Outcast - Hey Ya

 

[vagrantx]

I expect a whole lot of vocaroos tomorrow!

It's 3:30 AM here, I'm waiting until 7 or 8 or something before I start making samples so I don't get evicted.

Would like to fast forward please!

Day 9: A song that you can’t help but dance to

Just try and keep me still when this song is playing.

I blast it in the living room when I need to get it clean. I dance my way around until everything is back in its place (which with toddlers is no small feat!!)

Thunder Rumbles - Cat Empire

Day 9: A song that you can’t help but dance to

This is, for sure, a repeat for me. It fits multiple bills. I love her, and I love this song.

I’m not a dancer by any stretch of the definition. However, this song cannot come on my playlist without me moving my body. God forbid I’m in the truck, oh that poor driver’s seat lol.

Thank you for introducing me to this.

It's incredible!

I don't think I have ever properly thanked you for introducing me to Cat Empire. Love them.

You're more than welcome!!

And isn't that just the coolest video ever? I want to be every one of those people. What a party

Day 10: A song that you can sing really well

I'm no Tommy Shaw, that's for sure, but I do love me some Styx!
The recording cut off for some reason, but I managed to hit the high note so fuck it, it's good enough

Styx - Renegade

Outstanding! Brava!

When I was in junior high, we had a jukebox in the cafeteria, which I thought was the coolest thing. (Being a junior high, it was completely encased in steel bars and chain link. Junior highers/middle schoolers are the worst.) "Renegade" was one of the songs I remember blasting out of there regularly, and I flash back to that whenever I hear it. I also had the 45, and we slowed it down to verify that yes, they were yelling "damn!" between Tommy's opening and the rest of the song.

Oh, and thanks for setting the fucking bar first thing...

Mwehehe! Thank you thank you! Was split between this and something with Dennis on vocals but his songs are hard!

A jukebox in the cafeteria... Some times I forget that there's a generation between us. That's so cool. Who got all the coins?? And that's one thing I had no idea about; I always thought it was "yeah!", but keeping "damn" in my head and listening to it again I can totally hear that

I have no idea where the coins went, and up until now I had never even thought of it. Which is odd, as that is exactly what I would usually ask, heh.

And that's one thing I had no idea about; I always thought it was "yeah!", but keeping "damn" in my head and listening to it again I can totally hear that

Yeah, finding "cus words" on radio songs was a big thrill when you were 12 back then...

David Gray: Sail away

I couldn't claim to sing this well but it was on my playlist this morning and I was happily singing along. Now it's an ear worm

"A song that you can sing," I have no problem with. "Really well?" That's the rub. I cannot do this song justice the way Prince sings it --I don't think anyone can-- so I went in a little different direction. And it still isn't close to "really well," but I wasn't feeling up to singing Motörhead this early in the morning, which is more my vocal range.

"Little Red Corvette," Prince and The Revolution

Day 10: A song that you can sing really well
Umm... who says I can sing?
I'm going to have to go with The Doxology (or "The Old 100th), simply because I sing it a lot (every Sunday in church) and it's got a range of a single octave, which is just barely manageable for me.
This version has some very nice 4-part harmonies. In my church we get some very dissonant 13-17 part harmonies (none of us know how to sing on-key).
"The Doxology" - Tune by Louis Bourgeois (1551), Lyrics by Thomas Ken (1674).
