I love Disco Duck! It was meant to be terrible it was a parody of
bad disco! (BTW: I love disco, but it somethings parodies are good of stuff
you love cos it sounds like the original, you know what I mean, Vern?)

[blue neen]

1. Rockin' Me Baby by The Steve Miller Band.

:shrug: I don't know...it kind of has a catchy tune! :)

[Cocoa]

29. I registered a silent dissent on the other thread

I like Rock n me baby. :-)

[ForrestGump]

2. I love "Disco Duck," too!

Have ever since I first heard it, when I was a kid. Now it's got nostalgia value plus I recognize it as a brilliant parody of the disco culture that actually preceded the pinnacle of that culture.

"Got to have me a woman!"

I love it.

That and "Convoy" and "Kung Fu Fighting," along with lost of other maligned '70s ditties ("The Night Chicago Died," "Blockbuster," etc) form a cherished part of the soundtrack of my life.

[elshiva]

4. I love the photo! "Shake a tailfeather MAMA!"

Convoy and Kung Fu Fighting are both excellent parodies making fun of
CB radio and Bruce Lee movie fads.

[ForrestGump]

23. That's abig 10-4, Rubber Duckie

:D

[Dangerously Amused]

13. You love Disco Duck...

...but can't stand James Taylor?


Ohhhh dear.


:cry:

[ForrestGump]

24. It's up to you to save me

:loveya:

We can overcome this...






What's your position on the Village People's "Macho Man"?

[Dangerously Amused]

34. Don't go changin'... to try and please me...

You never let me down before...


We CAN overcome this. We'll just have to keep separate iPods, is all.




Well, that was easy enough. Honestly, I don't know what people are always bitching about - relationships seem pretty simple to me...

:shrug:





It's not so much the "Disco Duck" matter or even a "Macho Man" thing as it is the "James Taylor" issue. But let's not make a fuss in public...

[Monkey see Monkey Do]

3. I love "MacArthur Park" - I've even got the album

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00000ILLA/

and if I close my eyes and just enjoy the music, I've got a bit of a soft spot for Hanson's "Mmm-Bop".

btw - re duck songs, have you heard "The March of the Sinister Ducks"?
(right click, save as...) http://www.harpercollins.com/hc/images/om/JB/SinisterDucks-MarchoftheSinisterDucks.mp3

7. I love Donna Summers' version of MacArthur Park.

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

10. I love MacArthur Park too.

I thought it was brilliant when it was released in 1968 and still do.

[elshiva]

12. The song has always fascinated me.

Do you know any of the symbolism? What does the cake stand for?
Lost love? Vietnam? (I am serious here.)

[Left Is Write]

5. Shambala.

[auntAgonist]

6. I really like

the theme from "Titanic" by Celine Dion; My heart will go on.

aA
added the lyrics on edit.



Celine Dion - My Heart Will Go On (titanic) Lyrics

Every night in my dreams
I see you. I feel you.
That is how I know you go on.

Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on.

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never go till we're one

Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we'll always go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

There is some love that will not
go away

You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

[elshiva]

9. That takes a lot of courage!

It takes ears of steel and the patience of Job to get through that one!
:hide:

[EstimatedProphet]

8. Kum-ba-ya my lord...

Kidding!

[elshiva]

11. Darn I like that!

I liked that version that DC public radio did during a pledge drive:

"Kumbaya my lord, o my Lord, SUPPORT THIS STATION!"

[Zambero]

14. In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida

The long version, with guitar elephant sounds and long drum solo. Sorry, I can't help myself.

[SeattleGirl]

18. I love that song too!

I'll join you in the "I can't help myself" club!

[Ladyhawk]

15. Wow, I feel honored.

I like "Hotel California." I think that's a safe one to admit, for now. ;)

[Mz Pip]

16. We Built This City on Rock and Roll

I was always a big Jefferson Airplane fan and even liked them when they morphed into Starship. Never could figure out why the song was disliked so much. :shrug:

Mz Pip
:dem:

[elshiva]

17. I love Jefferson Airplane, but I never heard the song

so I can't comment on it.

[dajoki]

[donheld]

20. I like them, but mostly I laugh at them not with them...

21. Afternoon Delight.

:)

Afternoon Delight
( Starland Vocal Band )

Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight
Gonna grab some afternoon delight
My motto's always been 'when it's right, it's right'
Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night?
When everything's a little clearer in the light of day
And we know the night is always gonna be there any way

Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite
Looking forward to a little afternoon delight
Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes the sparks ingite
And the thought of lovin' you is getting so exciting
Sky rockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight

Started out this morning feeling so polite
I always though a fish could not be caught who wouldn't bite
But you've got some bait a waitin' and I think I might try nibbling
A little afternoon delight
Sky rockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight

Please be waiting for me, baby, when I come around
We could make a lot of lovin' 'for the sun goes down

Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite
Looking forward to a little afternoon delight
Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes the sparks ingite
And the thought of lovin' you is getting so exciting
Sky rockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight

Afternoon delight!

30. "More Than Words" by Extreme

I've always thought this song was so sweet, but most people seem to hate it (or at least claim to).

There are several dozens more as well. I'm a music critic's worst nightmare; but hey, I just like what I like.

[spacelady]

31. "Slow Ride" by Foghat. Now, I don't know anyone who hates it, but

it doesn't get enough love, either.

[swag]

32. "Servo" by Brian Jonestown Massacre

[Cocoa]

33. "Endless Love" by Lionel and Diana
