yes, they say this society lacks creativity... but that's because they don't visit this thread. we'll give them ideas for ten new global shows
And at least one or two of them wouldn't be censored

Hey Svenn! Nice new thread...very cool. I heard not long ago that Art Garfunkel will have some stops in my state in this current tour. I'm gonna see if I can't get to at least one of them. Looks like I missed Crosby and Nash's tour this time. Maybe next time.
I like Art Garfunkel. What a great voice he has! I think there are other members of the Supernova who like him too. I am not quite sure, but I think we have talked about him before. It would be great if you cold see Art on his tour. This is a very nice song by Crosby, Stills and Nash:
Teach your parents well I know that song I particularly like 'Suite: Judy Blue Eyes' and 'Our house' Some great tunes
Yes, I too, love Suite: Judy Blue Eyes. Fantastic, fantastic song, all the way around. Of course, Our House is one of my favorites, too. I'm so glad you're 'discovering' CSN's greatness, Roy. They're way near the top of my all-time favorite artists.

Yay, I'm on the first page of the new thread! Is it OK to talk about Aretha Franklin as well? I was kinda surprised to hear her sing the British National Anthem today until I realised the lyrics were different I know the American lyrics from the musical Hair but the melody is slightly different and I never knew it was nicked from the British Anthem... I wonder if I can use this knowledge somehow in my upcoming exam about America Anyhow... Congrats to all you American people around here with your new president!! Let's hope he can put those bold, brave words into action
I know she was legendary or something,
Aretha Franklin, "legendary"? In a word, yes.

Congratulation to all Americans I'm happy with Onama but I'm also very affraid a lot of very high hopes and 1 man to do that : let's not be hard for him................he is just a man
Thanks y'all, for the nice wishes, but I too share your concern, Angela. I worry that people (especially Americans) have unrealistically high expectations up to which neither he, nor anyone else, could possibly live, especially not in a four-year term. I do hope to see tremendous efforts toward change, though. I think we're already seeing signs of it, too. Just yesterday (or Wednesday?), Obama held a meeting with his cabinet and senior staff, and informed them that many Americans will be called upon to sacrifice, and that included them, and that there is a pay-freeze in effect on their salaries until further notice. He also said that openness will be the 'touchstone' of his administration and that the days of doing things "in secret" and hiding behind technical loopholes in the Freedom of Information Act were OVER. I think both of these are very good 'messages' to send, and that he's starting off on the right foot, so-to-speak. But time will tell. He's bound to make some mistakes, and have some other errors in judgment, and I'm sure there will be plenty of scandal in his administration, just like in pretty much every admin. But I sure would hate to see him castigated for not being the 'god' that many think they see. He is, just as you say........only a man.

I know she was legendary or something, But when I heard her sing, the only reason I could think of why she'd be a legend, was because she did the vocals of Donald Duck... At least, it sounded like she did...
You know Aretha because of the voice of Donald Duck : that woman have one of the most beautiful and powerfull voice in the whole world
Amen to that. As for anyone mocking that fabulous hat she wore on Inauguration Day, cuz personally, I thought it was fabulous.

No, but when she just sang, at the inuagrua-something-someting (that word is much to difficult for me to type) she sounded like Donald Duck ops:
The word you're looking for is "inauguration".
Maybe 'cos she's 'old',
Bite your tongue.
But she's 66, just like Paul.
So is Paul "old" too, then? :
But Paul doesnt sound Donaldish, though.
Neither does Aretha, to my ear.

Welcome to the Supernova Club! The old Supernova thread has reached 1,000 pages and will soon be moved to the Souvenir section. In this thread we talk about all kinds of music. We are going to talk about bands/artists like The Smiths, Oasis, Adam Green, The Beatles, The Strokes, Brigitte Bardot, Hard-Fi, Babyshambles, Amy Winehouse, Simon & Garfunkel, Crosby Stills & Nash, Arcade Fire, Beck, Turbonegro, The Hooters, The Go! Team, La Rocca, Manic Street Preachers, Nada Surf, Yeah Yeah Yeahs etc.
Thank you very much, Svenn, for including them! Btw, Christy and Tina, I'm a bit late in uploading the other Saturday Night Live shows, but they ARE coming, if you're still interested.
I had trouble with that download cuz it was just so large....kept crashing, or stopping short of finishing, etc. But that's okay. I was able to see much of it online. And yes, got your other PM...same thing re: file size, but I've been having connection issues too, so that might be part of the problem. I'll save the links and try again later. Thanks, Eve.

OMG! I googled Anne Hathaway pics.. This is what I found: http://server5.uploadit.org/files/theDUD3-AnneHathaway.jpg [size=4]that top would look great on Evie.
I wouldn't be surprised if that pic would be first one when you search for her in google
She is really something... I love her breasts. Not the biggest I've seen... but so nice and firm!

OMG yes please go, and say hi to him from me! He's doing five concerts in Florida I think...there should be one you could go to, right, right? Oh, I'm so jealous, I wanna go again too!
Yeah, one of them isn't too far from me, so we'll see.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to check them out as well....harmonies are definitely my thing. I think Sean has a few cd's of them, I'll play them tomorrow!
So, what did you think?

Just found this link: http://magazine.jamsbio.com/2009/01/05/playing-the-beatles-backwards-the-ultimate-countdown Someone made a countdown of Beatles songs. All 185 of them. From 185 to 1 in order of how much the person compiling the list likes them. Each song comes with its youtube vid, it's kind of awesome!
Ha! Cool. And here's the link to just the list and YouTube vids. http://magazine.jamsbio.com/2009/01/05/playing-the-beatles-backwards-the-ultimate-countdown/20/

You're kidding
It would be great if you cold see Art on his tour.
Very cool, esp. if it was a smaller venue...which it wouldn't be...but one can dream.
Actually, at least one stop that I know of on the tour is in a pretty small venue. The Amphitheatre in St. Augustine only holds a few thousand. Years ago, it held even less. Florida's "official state play", "Cross and Sword" was held there for decades....hell, might even still be there, I don't know. But I know the theatre underwent some major renovations a few years ago, and capacity more than doubled. I also suspect that he's booked into many smaller arenas like this. He's not the "big stadium" kind of guy, I don't think......unless he's with Paul and they're in Central Park.

I want to congratulate the Americans with their new president. I hope he will make your dreamscome true.
He's got a very difficult road ahead of him, but I feel much better with him driving
Pete Seeger Bruce Springsteen:
James Taylor- John Legend - Jennifer Nettles: (on the stage is James' wife singing together with James' background singer before John Legend and Jennifer Nettles comes on stage) Bruce Springsteen (not very good view)A very kind soul pointed me to an upload of the whole show...in great quality....I am a happy camper
This is another one I'm having trouble with. Gotta be connection-related.
