I don't think this is a go-er for the show but thought I'd remind everyone.



There is a brief unlisted track on The Beatles Double White. It's between

CRY BABY CRY and REVOLUTION 9 and the lyrics are -



Can you take me back where I came from?

Can you take me back?

Can you take me back where I came from?

Brother can you take me back?



So atmospheric. Melancholy.

Morning All



Slightly late for me today, but I have already tweeted the following, which I notice have also been suggested above - share?



YOUNG AT HEART by the Bluebells



YOUNG HEARTS RUN FREE by Candy Statton



#22 that was the first single I bought, PSL. I obviously bought it about 20 years before I was actually born...



The ageing thing does give me a bit of a problem, I have to say. I've reached the stage now where I mumble slightly if I have to give my age or date of birth. But then I look at women who are slightly (but not much) older than me - Dawn French, Madonna, Kim Cattrall, who still manage to look gorgeous, and think - well, maybe I'm not quite over the hill yet. And then I get out of bed in the morning and look in the mirror... Facelift, anyone?

Morning all



Thanks for the birthday wishes for yesterday, as a 40 year old and 1 day, can I suggest.



When you're young and in love - The Marvelettes.



Cheers

#32 Thanks KatyMac - I think I'll be wearing that one a lot!

FOREVER YOUNG - Rod Stewart (or various others - Meatloaf, MAdness, etc)

Hi Everybody Doesn't strictly fit the criteria but it is a thumping good tune and it is by JETHRO TULL..... "We used to know" please, please Simon (it has one of the best lead breaks ever)! Do an old man a favour! Make me feel young again by playing this superb tune from yesteryear!!

FATHER AND SON - Cat Stevens

DAYS OF OUR LIVES - Queen

How's about - guys and gals - some good old date classics:





DECEMBER 1963 (OH WHAT A NIGHT) - THE FOUR SEASONS



SUMMER OF 69 - BRYAN ADAMS







:^)

AT SEVENTEEN - Jania Ian

A bit leftfield but the fabulous



WALTZING ALONG by JAMES



is very relevant to today's theme



"May your mind set you free

May your heart lead you on

May your mind let you be

May your heart lead you on

May your eyes be opened by the wonderful .."

EVERYTHING LOUDER THAN EVERYTHING ELSE - Meatloaf

Morning all



I'm liking the sound of this TV programme....does it mean if we dress like a 19 year old, we will feel this age?? I thought not.....we'd probably all get arrested and given an ASBO!!



But on today's theme.....



Live Forever - Oasis

#13 PSL, Great minds again!!

I'm not sure it *quite* fits the theme, but it's close.



TEACH YOUR CHILDREN - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young or (preferably) Alison Krauss

#41 Katy - Nic will be muchos impressed!!

Morning Everyone and, of course, Simon and The Team,



Glad you're feeling a bit better Simon - you sounded just fine last night.



V busy at the grindstone at the mo - still working on the building survey :( Anyhoo, no time to dilly dally, just wanted to say I heard Mad Chickster's and BP's menshes yesterday - well done ladies and a big woo hoo from me.



Will try to catch up again soonly - once the report has gone out - the report is on a rather large property so it's taking a while and we want it just right for the client.



I hope everyone's keeping well and having fun.



Will try to think of a tune in the meantime.



GailyB

Sorry, blog clogging....but GailyB, you are mentioned in dispatches on the other side....made it along to the beginners running club last night....!!! So thank you!!!



dreamer

Howdy all,



Feeling rubbish today - think I have a cold trying to come out and I would much rather be curled up with cats, kits and a good movie than trying to write yet another project initiation document.



Good choices today so far. I can't think of any better than those already suggested so I will abstain from the race for a mensh today (unless inspiration strikes which is unlikely).



I like the sound of the telly prog. I feel the same as I did when I was 16 - I just creak more, move slower and the bits that used to be pert can now be moved in a wheelbarrow. However, I wear the grey hairs with pride - each one was earned - and I don't have wrinkles, I have laughter lines. A smile is the best face lift!



Laters all



Alex-G

50!

Alex-Girl, hope you feel better soon.



xx

Hi



Only one U2 offering today as "Desire" was played in the middle of the TB interview yesterday and Bono was mentioned. Thanks Simon an the team.



So I give you "40" as it is the new 30 and therefore we must all be feeling younger!

my choice today is young girl- gary puckett or girls-the moments or the pretenders with kid or kids in america-kim wilde

BALLAD OF YOUTH - Richie Sambora

Cripes, I am late. Good Afternoon, Each!



Some cracking suggestions thus far. Can I add to the mix...



'Spring Song' by Charlie Chaplin



'Springtime' by Spinal Tap (Judicious use of a bleep may be neccessary due to the mention of a certain anotomical part)



'All The Young Dudes' by Mott The Hoople. (That's a bit more like it)



'Feeling Good' by Nina Simone



'Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger' by Daft Punk

WE ARE THE CHILDREN OF THE WORLD - Diana Ross

CHILDHOOD DAYS - Bee Gees

TURN BACK TIME - Aqua

Just stopping briefly to trough so had a catch up since my last comment.



Alex-Girl - you're looking gorgeous despite feeling a bit off colour. :)



Dreamer - well done - how did it go? Is there an update on t'other side? (I don't have access at work). I hope you enjoyed it anyway.



There's an awful lot of cold bugs about at the mo. The elderGB has 'Portuguese man flu'. He caught cold from his mate who has just returned from living in Portugal. He's struggling manfully on tho' so it makes all those times of booting him out the door when he was younger saying, it's just a cold, when all I wanted to do was keep him home, letting him watch the tv and drink warmed lemonade, seem worthwhile. Fingets crossed I have fashioned a man who can deal with a cold without behaving like he has triple pneumonia.



Well that's it - trough-time over.



Hoping to catch up again soonly.



Oh look I haven't thought of a tune or contributed a three word Tuesday. Will go with a three worder as I start trawling round the local secondary schools with the youngerGB:-



School open evening :(



which means:-



no running club :(



GailyB

Afternoon,



#41 Katy - RESPECT! I feel like breaking in to a Tim Booth dance at the thought of that song :O)



James Morrison - Once When I Was Little.



I wish I knew what I know now when I was 18...though I may well get arrested!



Nic

# 24 Nice one PSL, definitely deserves a seconding if I may be so bold 8-]

And no takers yet for ...



YOUNG GUNS - WHAM

TWO LITTLE BOYS - ROLF HARRIS

Oh dear, I seem to be having a cheese roll for lunch!

Hey GoD - you are on a cheese roll my lovely. Heard your mensh the other night - well done.



Why does it always bring a wee smile to my face and a mental nod of the head (ie in my head, not a crazy shaking of my head)in acknowledgement when I hear a fellow blogpoppet being mentioned?



Well my lovelies, the boss has just cracked the whip again so I'm off back to the grindstone.



Have a lovely rest of the day.



GailyB

Simon - late thoughts but



(MAY YOU STAY)FOREVER YOUNG - Bob Dylan. Album track - does that exclude it?



FAR FAR AWAY - Slade



AlexG - take care of yourself.



BP

How about WHO WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER by Queen.



Just been for a lunchtime swim - the first one in about 3 weeks. So I'm definitely feeling a bit old and creaky now..



Deebee X

#49 Hope you feel better soon Alex X

#49 Alex - Hot toddies and lots of cuddles with the cats and kits when you get home!



Hope you haven't caught it from Simon :-)

What about



Evergreen - Will Young



a double whammy!!!



Huggles to Alex



Deevs

Some fantastic choices peeps. Have just returned from a shopping trip with my daughter, buying stuff that she will need when she goes to University.



I was very lucky to have a song played yesterday, thanks Simon (your cold didn't sound too bad, not quite 'man-flu' then?) Sorry to hear that you have got the lurgie, too, Alex, hot toddy is in order for you!



I do like Billy's choice of The Bluebells and Rips' Tears For Fears suggestion. Fingets crossed for you two then.



Mcw x

#70 You've just reminded me Deevs, didn't Jimmy Young also do the original version of Too Young? Another double!



I am, of course, far too young to remember this, but when the Donny Osmond version was around in the early '70s, I remember my Mum mentioning it.

#46 & #60 ChezNic - Ta. Am basking..



I do wonder, sometimes, whether such a track would be played. More likely if there was a Strictly Come Dancing theme - a strong pissabolity in the next few weeks.

It was played a LOT on the raydio and is probs my stand out single from 1997.

#74 Katy I think that is another excellent word for the blogpoppet dictionary!

#72 Can't beat a bit of Donny O, Tortie!

"Enter The Young" by The Association.



"If I Were Only A Child Again" by Curtis Mayfield.



"You Make Me Feel So Young" by Frank Sinatra.

#76 I used to think that madchick, but I'm not so sure now!



I laughed last night at the Confessions slot (not a good idea as I was on the treadmill in the gym); a Bay City Rollers fan begging parents for tartan scarves and having tartan trims on jeans - it could have been me 30+ years ago!

#63 Arrgghhh no..no...no

#75 Madchickster - not original ...



... acknowledging Ronnie Barker from The Two Ronnies - the 'Spoonerism Sketch'.



[Now there's a couple of chaps who remind me of when I was younger and the comedy on the telly was brilliant.]

Can we make it to 100 before Drive starts?











Race you?

On your marks

#79 Well spotted Revster, I hadn't seen that suggestion. I will definitely second your "Arrghhh no.." and ad an extra "no" for good measure!

Tortie #78 - could have been my big sisters as well!



Rev #79 what's wrong with a bit of Rolf! ;)



A

Thank you Katy.



xxxx

#83 - I think you're safe as it won't pass SM's cheese threshold imo!

#83 Tortie and Revster



That track - the Rolf Harris one - made a lot of people VERY happy back in 1969 - including ME!!!!

#83 & 84 Thank you Tortie for your much appreciated support...I mean...there are limits.....Rolf should stick to painting

Ah well - we didn't make the 100.





Have to go now and do some cooking.



Healthy option tonight - Ham, Egg and Chips - a rare treat!

Pass the ketchup





:^D

# 89 still time to get to 100 before the show starts....come on guys n gals

#87 Sorry Katy, but it used to give me nightmares back in 1969 - even now if it comes on the radio I have to turn it off!



Enjoy your healthy option!

#88 Rev! I'm shocked. lol

Dissing other people's choices. Has Tortie told you what she really thinks about Jethro Tull?



:^)

Tortie can't have seen that choice earlier then! ;)

Not sure we can make that final push!

or can we?

Yes we can!

Has everyone else gone?

Hello CSN!

Nearly there!

100?
