The Thursday Night Music Express Presents: Pink Floyd

This is for my friend Emily. Of whom is a fellow Michiganian, of whom I’d like to kidnap and have hot, nasty sex with for 48 hours. But, she’s damned married and kidnapping is illegal, so I can’t. 🙁 Bummer.

(Please note: the above is humor, and said in jest. I know Emily is happily married. So, please freaketh not outeth. But she is rather pretty, if you ask me)

Anyhow, here’s her song:

Lyrics:

You’ve been walking in that rain again, looking for a friend

Wind blows in your backyard, and it feels like it’s the end.

(Chorus)

After the Storm (Repeat X2)

I feel the hurt, you know, I feel the pain, when love has passed you by.

Well, He can take rearrange those things, that make you hide inside.

(Chorus)

(Guitar Solo 1)

You’ve been trying to change your life, for such a long, long time.

But change won’t come, until you trust God’s son, and leave the past behind. whoa-oh…

(Chorus)

You Gonna find…yeah…

What Jesus’s love is all about

what his love is all about…yeah!

(Guitar solo 2)

Yeah…….

Gonna find out, gonna find out…

You’re gonna find out about Jesus.. Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah….

(Song fade)

Bonus Song!

This is Resurrection Band with “Suprised”:

Lyrics:

I done my time
I took my ride
Strutted my stuff, did it my way
Hid myself from the light of day
Pushed, shoved, tripped an’ fell
But dead men got no tales to tell
Everything I’ve come to know
Points me to my need for you
I’ve known the pain
I felt the shame
Voices talkin’ soft an’ loud
Too far down to be so proud
Some said somethin’ ’bout ears to hear
Faith in truth becomin’ clear
I been surprised
Opened my eyes
Sky came down in tears of rain
Sun came up a whole new way
God knows what an’ when an’ why
Think I wasn’t born to die
Everything I’ve come to know
Points me to the fact of You
I don’t know all that I need
But I think I finally see
Been so surprised
Here I’m alive
So, so surprised
I am alive

The Saturday Night Music Express Presents: Led Zeppelin

Simply in response to, and inspired by this here and yes, this here too.

November 6’th cannot come fast enough for me here.

Lyrics:

“No Quarter”

Close the door, put out the light. 

You know they won’t be home tonight. 
The snow falls hard and don’t you know? 
The winds of Thor are blowing cold. 
They’re wearing steel that’s bright and true 
They carry news that must get through. 

They choose the path where no-one goes. 

They hold no quarter. 

Walking side by side with death, The devil mocks their every step 
The snow drives back the foot that’s slow, The dogs of doom are howling more 
They carry news that must get through, To build a dream for me and you 

They choose the path where no-one goes. 

They hold no quarter. They ask no quarter. 
The pain, the pain without quarter. 
They ask no quarter. 
The dogs of doom are howling more!

The Saturday Night Music Express Presents: Eric Clapton

On a chilly Detroit night like tonight, there’s nothing like a little “slowhand” to warm the soul.

The funny and ironic thing about this song is that, during the verses section of this tune. The drummer is actually playing the wrong beat. Great song, just the drumming was wildly off on the verses part. I know things thing, I am a drummer! Big GrinBatting Eyelashes

Now, it could be possibly that Clapton wanted it like that; but my gosh was it ever wrong. Sick

Video: New Rolling Stones: “Doom & Gloom”

Deviating  from my Christianism theme around here, and to embrace my inner rebel or blatant hypocrite; either one you wish —- I wish to post a video from a Rock and Roll band as old as my Mother.  (Sorry Mom…)

My take: This sounds like classic stones; gone is the pretense and back is the rock. Not bad for a bunch of 60-something year olds.

This comes with the grudgingly obligatory hat tip to Slate.com:

Good show and I hope they keep it up. 😀

I know, I know, someone is going to say, “Hey! These guys are British! Why are you, an Americanist, posting something lauding a bunch of brits?”

To that I simply say: Meh. The Rolling Stones or as I like to call them; The Strolling Bones —- are true icons of the 1960’s and are still making music, that in itself is a feat. because of that; they transcend territorial waters. Because of that, they get a mention here. Not to mention they can really rock, when they put their minds to it and my mother loves them. So there! 😉
