Subject: RE: BS: What do u have in your head right now? From: Benjamin Date: 14 Jul 01 - 05:01 PM The second movement of Debussy's Images Pour Orchestre. I'm also hearing the second movement of Ponce's Sonata Romántica. I wonder how they would sound together? I guess I'm in a "quasi-classical mood" as well. But why is it that the second movements are almost always the best? In the midst of all this music is a pretty girl. But I guess this isn't the thread for discussing that. BMW |

Subject: RE: BS: What do u have in your head right now? From: Celtic Soul Date: 14 Jul 01 - 05:39 PM Most every morning, I wake up with some tune running through my head. Sometimes it's something interesting, somtimes it's some stupid jingle from a commercial, sometimes it's something that my mind remembers from a dream. Right this very minute though, it would be the newest song I am trying to learn. And, of course, it is something Celtic. ;D |

I don't think I've sung this in 20 years & probably haven't heard it in at least 10 but there it is & it's been there for the past week or so. So the only thing I could do was to relearn it again (in a lower register). Barry |

Subject: RE: BS: What do u have in your head right now? From: davidg Date: 15 Jul 01 - 12:33 AM I once heard that if you have a tune stuck in your head and it's driving you crazy, you can get rid it by thinking of the theme from The Odd Couple. I don't know if it's power of suggestion or what but it works for me. To answer the question: "Manchester Rambler" by Ewan MacColl. (I don't know how to get rid of the theme frome The Odd Couple.) |

Subject: RE: BS: What do u have in your head right now? From: GUEST,Roger Date: 15 Jul 01 - 05:13 AM Da Slockit Lite, after hearing the sables/pirt/stephenson Cd. It sounded familiar and I managed to get a version of the tune from JCs and I am practicing it (the G sharp still catches me out) Last wednesday I went along to the Red House pub, the first time in several months, and listened to the tunes being played. That is why the tune is so familiar, they play it there among all the other tunes I haven't yet learned. |

Subject: RE: BS: What do u have in your head right now? From: GUEST,Vectis at work Date: 16 Jul 01 - 05:22 AM All my head has in it at the moment is sawdust stuffing. I've just had a wonderful folk camping weekend in Sussex. Great beer, fantastic singing and very late nights/early mornings. Worth every minute but awful on a Monday morning, especially when you've got a driving test later in the day. A gallon or so of tea should sort me out by then - I hope!!!!!! |

Subject: RE: BS: What do u have in your head right now? From: Susanne (skw) Date: 16 Jul 01 - 08:10 PM 'Lament for the Hull Trawlers' - I've just been checking the words of my Frankie Armstrong LP and can't get the haunting tune out of my head. Alice, the song you're looking for (post 506654 above) could be All the tunes in the world by Mudcatter Ewan McVicar. There is a short older thread on it but the link there is obsolete. Can anything be done about this? (Sorry - sneaking off to the technical forum ...) |
