Hi Barbie
Hi Ken!
Do you wanna go for a ride?

You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere
Imagination, life is your creation
Come on Barbie, let’s go party!

Life in plastic, it’s fantastic!
You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere
Imagination, life is your creation

I’m a blond bimbo girl, in a fantasy world
Dress me up, make it tight, I’m your dolly
You’re my doll, rock’n’roll, feel the glamour in pink,
Kiss me here, touch me there, hanky panky…
You can touch, you can play, if you say: “I’m always yours”

Hit the town, fool around, let’s go party
You can touch, you can play, if you say: “I’m always yours”
You can touch, you can play, if you say: “I’m always yours”

March 8th – Its spring :-) – “New Life”

Posted on March 8, 2016 by Chris Bridges — Leave a comment

Let’s celebrate the wonderful longer days, birds tweeting and bulbs sprouting that is #spring!  #feelgood #singing

New Life

8-3 Spring

I stand still stepping on the shady streets
And I watched that man to a stranger
You think you only know me when you turn on the light
Now the room is lit, red dangerComplicating, circulating
New life, new life
Operating, generating
New life, new life

Transitions to another place
So the time will pass more slowly
Features fuse and your shadow’s red
Like a film I’ve seen now show me

Your face is hidden and were out of sight
And the road just leads to nowhere
The stranger in the door is the same as before
So the question answers nowhere

I stand still stepping on the shady streets
And I watched that man to a stranger
You think you only know me when you turn on the light
Now the room is lit, red danger

March 7th – Telephone is patented – “Hanging on the telephone”

Posted on March 7, 2016 by Chris Bridges — Leave a comment

In 1876, Alexander Graham Bell patented the #telephone.  It transformed the world.  Here is #Blondie

Hanging on the telephone

7-3 Telephone

I’m in the phone booth, it’s the one across the hall
If you don’t answer, I’ll just ring it off the wall
I know he’s there, but I just had to call
Don’t leave me hanging on the telephone
Don’t leave me hanging on the telephone
I heard your mother now she’s going out the door
Did she go to work or just go to the store
All those things she said, I told you to ignore
Oh why can’t we talk again
Oh why can’t we talk again
Oh why can’t we talk again
Don’t leave me hanging on the telephone
Don’t leave me hanging on the telephoneIt’s good to hear your voice, you know it’s been so long
If I don’t get your call then everything goes wrong
I want to tell you something you’ve known all along
Don’t leave me hanging on the telephone

I had to interrupt and stop this conversation
Your voice across the line gives me a strange sensation
I’d like to talk when I can show you my affection
Oh I can’t control myself
Oh I can’t control myself
Oh I can’t control myself
Don’t leave me hanging on the telephone

Hang up and run to me
Whoah, hang up and run to me
Whoah, hang up and run to me
Whoah, hang up and run to me
Whoah oh oh oh run to me

March 3rd – Recommended song – “Walking after Midnight”

Posted on March 3, 2016 by Chris Bridges — Leave a comment

Inspired by #BlueberryHill and recommended by #TheLostSound @_TheLostSounds  here is a great song from #EddiReader.  Thanks! #singing;#feelgood

Walking After Midnight

3-3 Midnight

I go out walking after midnight
Out in the moonlight just like we used to do
I’m always walking after midnight searching for you
I walk for miles along the highway
Well that’s just my way of saying I love you
I’m always walking after midnight searching for you
I stopped to see a weeping willow
Crying on his pillow maybe he’s crying for me
And as the skies turn gloomy
Night blooms will whisper to me I’m lonesome as I can be
I go out walking after midnight out in the moonlight
Just hoping maybe you’re somewhere walking after midnight searching for me
I stopped to see a weeping willow
Crying on his pillow maybe he’s crying for me
And as the skies turn gloomy
Night blooms will whisper to me I’m lonesome as I can be
I’m out walking after midnight out in the moonlight
Just hoping maybe you’re somewhere walking after midnight searching for me

In 1904, #DrSeuss was born.  He wrote a very famous book about a #TopCat  #singing;#feelgood

Top Cat!
The most effectual Top Cat!
Who’s intellectual close friends get to call him T.C.
Providing it’s with dignity.

Top Cat!
The indisputable leader of the gang.
He’s the boss, he’s a pip, he’s the championship.
He’s the most tip top,
Top Cat.

Yes he’s a chief, he’s a king,
But above everything,
He’s the most tip top,
Top Cat.

March 1st – St David’s Day – “Its not unusual”

Posted on March 1, 2016 by Chris Bridges — Leave a comment

It is #StDavidsDay, especially in #Wales.  Here is one of their own – #TomJones, blasting out an old favourite! #singing;#feelgood

Its not unusual

1-3 St Davids Day

It’s not unusual to be loved by anyone
It’s not unusual to have fun with anyone
but when I see you hanging about with anyone
It’s not unusual to see me cry,
oh I wanna’ die
It’s not unusual to go out at any time
but when I see you out and about it’s such a crime
if you should ever want to be loved by anyone,
It’s not unusual it happens every day no matter what you say
you find it happens all the time
love will never do what you want it to
why can’t this crazy love be mine
It’s not unusual, to be mad with anyone
It’s not unusual, to be sad with anyone
but if I ever find that you’ve changed at anytime
it’s not unusual to find out that I’m in love with you
whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
1-3 Tom Jones Its not unusual

February 28th – Watson & Crick discover DNA – “Skinny Genes”

Posted on February 28, 2016 by Chris Bridges — Leave a comment

In 1953, the structure of #DNA was discovered by Watson and Crick. Here is a song by #ElizaDoolittle  #singing;#feelgood

Skinny Genes

28-2 DNA

I really don’t like your point of view
I know you’ll never change
Stinging me with your attitude
I’ve got the mind to walk awayI really don’t like your arrogance
Or your policies
You’re ninety-nine percent an embarrassment
Of just wrong qualities[Chorus:]
I don’t mind it when you [whistles]
Brings out the best in me when you [whistles]
Show your expertise
When the night always ends with a fight I’m excited
That you’ll wind up next to me
I like it when you [whistles]
Can I have some please of that [whistles]
Satisfy my needs
Sometimes I fake that I hate you and make up
So you wind up next to me

I really don’t like your skinny jeans
So take them off for me
Show me what you’ve got underneath
So we can do this properly

I really don’t like the way you smile
When you think you’re right
But I will forgive you, the yoke is in the middle
And we’re chewing through the wire

[Chorus]

I dreamt that you were on a train
you were leaving, you were leaving
It made me think of what I’d miss
Do you believe it, you believe it

I don’t mind it when you [whistles]
Brings out the best in me when you [whistles]
Show your expertise
When the night always ends with a fight I’m excited
That you’ll wind up next to me

I like it when you [whistles]
Can I have some please of that [whistles]
Take off your skinny jeans
Sometimes I fake that I hate you and make up
So you wind up next to me

I dreamed that you were on a train
And you were leaving, you were leaving
