What music CD is in your computer/player now?

liveinabin · March 3, 2002

I never ever listen to CDs on my computer, never really seen the point (although iTunes does make pretty shapes when you do). I got the soundtrack to PS1 wondergame, Xenogears in the CD player tho.

Woah, Rhindle the Red you must REALLY be into the Rutles, man.

*In an Eric Idle voice*

As rip-offs I meant parodies... I would in no way ever attempt to put down and or ...put down... The Rutles. It was in this exact Messageboard, actually more over in page 2 of this post... in the Message Board that I said that one word, actually it was more like two words, "rip-off", as a put down? No, as a compliment...Yes...

Oh, yes. I have the original vinyl album, both CDs: 'The Rutles' (Rhino) and 'Archaeology' (Virgin), the movie on VHS, DVD and MovieCD , plus the 'Rutland Weekend Songbook' which is an album springing from 'Rutland Weekend Television', the show that Idle and Innes did together where The Rutles made their first appearance.

My copy of Neil's 'Recollection 3' was ordered within hours of being available, so I got a signed copy. I have every Rutles song, every song from the 'Recollection's, plus Innes' 'Python' songs all in one big song list that I can run on my computer so I can listen to about six hours of non-stop Innes without repeating.

And I got that you weren't being insulting. Just wanted to make sure the unknowning understood.

"The Worm and the Angel"

quote:

One night I dreamed that

I was dead.

A butterfly flew

into my head.

"How do you do?"

she said.

"I'm an angel"

She said no more

she said no less

I said "Can you get me

out of this mess?

If you can

well, then I guess

youmust be

an Angel."

But then a worm crawled

up my nose.

And said to the butterfly

"I suppose

you think,

because of your beautiful clothes

you're an angel?"

Well, the butterfly smiled

a knowing smile.

And said "A miss is

as good as a mile.

Nothing on Earth can

cramp the syle

of an Angel."

Then, the worm said

"I'm not satisfied."

And if you'd kindly

step outside,

in a civilized way,

we can soon decide

who's an angel."

Well, I was turnin'

in my grave.

The worm began

to rant and rave.

And the butterfly

did not behave

like an Angel.

Then I awoke,

and found them gone.

I looked at the trees

and the morning sun,

and wondered

if the worm had won

or the Angel.

It's not every day

you see the light.

But after such a

restless night

I knew

that only a worm could

fight an Angel.

"Concrete Jungle Boy"

quote:

In my high-rise shoes

I can walk tall.

I'm a concrete jungle boy.

I can write my name

all over a wall.

I'm a concrete jungle boy.

The teacher's a fool

so I don't go to school.

I just hang around

playin' it cool.

Snapping my fingers,

lookin' for fun.

I'm a concrete jungle boy.

Wearin' my shirt

with the buttons undone.

I'm a concrete jungle boy.

The music is loud

and I like it a lot.

I got what it takes

so I take what it's got.

Concrete jungle boy.

Nobody's mother's pride and joy.

I've got time to kill

and money to make.

I'm a concrete jungle boy.

I don't do for real

what I can fake.

I'm a concrete jungle boy.

I look at the world

and I want my share.

Although I keep moving,

I'm going nowhere.

If I was a sinner,

I would confess.

But I'm just a beginner

I couldn't care less.

All that I am

is standing right here.

Between my legs

and between my ears.

Concrete jungle boy.

Nobody's mother's pride and joy.

Concrete jungle boy.

Nobody's mother's pride and joy.

"Cheese and Onions"

quote:

I have always thought

in the back of my mind:

cheese and onions

I have always thought

that the world was unkind.

Cheese and onions

Do I have to spell it out?

C-H-E-E-S-E-A-N-D-O-N-I-O-N-S

Oh, no

Man and machine

(man and machine)

Keep yourself clean

(keep yourself clean)

Or be a has-been

Or be a has-been

(Ahhhhh-ah!)

"The Knicker Elastic King" (Rutles):

quote:

He used to travel in bath cubes

Until the slump came.

Faced with redundancy

he turned his mind

to other things

And soon became

a household name.

Knicker elastic -

Everybody used it.

Knicker elastic -

Nobody refused it.

The Knicker Elastic King.

The Knicker Elastic King:

A self-made man

with a business to run.

and something to sell

to everyone.

The Knicker Elastic King

He grew so rich the Gnomes of Zurich

Were green with envy.

The darling of

the Stock Exchange.

Made the New Year's

Honours List.

And won the Queen's Award

to Industry.

Knicker Elastic -

Essence of propriety.

Knicker Elastic -

Upholder of society.

The Knicker Elastic King.

Ooo la la.

His rubber business kept expanding

But then disaster (Ee bah gum!)

The price of raw materials,

coupled with inflation,

squeezed his global holdings.

His liquid assets bottomed out,

And shrunk his retail outlet

... operation

And that's the story of the

Knicker Elastic King

(and market forces)

The Knicker Elastic King

('horses for courses')

A self-made man

with a business to run.

And something to sell

to everyone.

Knicker Elastic King.

Ooo la la

The Knicker Elastic King.

and finally:

"Back in '64" (Rutles):

quote:

Many years from now

When your grandchildren

climb upon your knee.

You may be quite

astonished to see

how many channels

they can change on TV.

When some old film

in black and white

Comes on

and there you are

up on the screen.

Or is it someone

just like someone

you've been?

Looking not a day

over nineteen?

"Grand dad"

the little ones

are asking you

"Why do you look so sad?"

(so sad)

So you tell them

all about

the fun you had.

Back in '64

before you were born.

People had no time

for pouring scorn

(or scoring porn).

On dreams of love and peace

no one was obese.

Only tight trousers were worn.

Back in '64

we were at it

like knives,

Back in '64

the time of

our lives

was in the present tense.

Now does that make common sense

any more than girls

with hairdos

called beehives?

Back in '64

before you were born -

Back in '64

before you were born -

But as you've

gone on and on,

your audience

has flown.

And as you find

yourself all on your own.

You may wistfully

recall

How Benjamin Disraeli

said that

"Life is too short to be small"

Or maybe...

like some old time song,

overall it's long.

So,

so long...

it's all over.

We will do as you command. For the moment.

Small corrections:

What kinda chip you got in there, a Dorito?

Well,

that's great

If

you could use a nice, heavy

paperweight

Overall I find Running with Scissors the most lackluster of “Weird Al” Yankovic's albums, but I certainly enjoy this song.

I was listening to the Beatles about 15 minutes ago. I recently memorized "Yellow Submarine" (the song)

In the town where I was born

Lived a man who sailed to sea

And he told us of his life

In the land of submarines

So we sailed up to the sun

Till we found the sea of green

And we lived beneath the waves

In our yellow submarine
