    I remember the sister warbling this one summer......

    (another one I know the words to!).....

    I think I'm a closet C&W fan.....Dear God...

    Love love that film...

    Two slices of white bread and a whole cooked chicken....:D

    Four fried chickens and a coke.

    And some dry white toast.

    Best movie and soundtrack EVER!

    They won't die from headbanging that's for sure......;)

    More in danger of an injury from nodding off and falling off the stage, I would think.

    My old man used to sing that. Unfortunately he only knew "Hey, did you happen to see the most beautiful girl in the world" so he sang it over and over.

    Got some new daycent headphones a while ago. The Aretha Fanklin, Ray Charles tunes and She Caught the Katy are absolute solid gold through them.

    Ah, it's all coming back, all coming back to me now.

    I only learnt recently that Cab Calloway (the auld lad in the Blues Brothers) was a serious muso, something of a legend in Jazz.

    Ah no :(

    I'll keep an eye out for it.

    It would be a brilliant film for RTE to show after the LLS some week. Anything to lift the mood!

    I loved KK in "A Star is Born"......

    The John Norman Howard Freeway........:)

    Now, that WAS one of my loves.

    (one of!)

    Get yourself a git-ar and three chords and you got yourself a country song!

    You could climb those side burns!

    He looks like he'll put himself in a coma, never mind his audience!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 32,372 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    That's a very high voice singing harmonies considering they're all fellas with big taches and burns!

    UPC they came round and they took my ol' box
    Now there's nothing to watch on TV
    I'm stuck with Saorview, I just got RTE
    please Lord save me from Ryan Tub-ri-dee


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,351 ✭✭✭✭Harry Angstrom


    I don't normally like country music but I always make an exception for Kris Kristofferson and Johnny Cash.

    I love this song, especially the line "The beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad, so I had one more for dessert" ;)

    This was one of about four records my parents had

    I knew every scratch and crackle in it.
