How can she really know, understand just how I feel, When the days are so long and our conversations seem so stolen? How could she know the extent and depth of my love, When distance and circumstance leave me broken. How can I convince her that I'm for keeps, for real, That I would do anything and more for her smile? Why should she believe that I care so much for her, For her happiness, her kind heart, her mind. I don't know why she should believe all I say, Or why I would imagine she would feel the same way, But when she talks to me, she more than makes my day, And gives life to my once dead heart. All I can do is to tell her just how special and sweet, She is to me, she makes me dizzy and weak, Her sweet and beautiful words make me feel complete, And feel helpless, as we're apart. I love you. xx
You are amazing. I hope she doesn't mind me saying so.
ops: Amazing? ops: Well, it takes a special kind of inspiration to write in that way and she is special. I'm sure she wouldn't mind...

I am bored, right now. Wonder what CD I should put on.
Why not try Brian Wilson, or maybe Stevie Wonder for a change? Failing that, how about The Beatles?

RE: Post Anything You Want Thread!
For someone special. I can wait another day, Until I call you, You've only got my heart on a string and everything a' flutter... But another lonely night, Might take forever We've only got each other to blame, It's all the same to me love `Cause I know what I feel to be right. No more lonely nights, Never be another, No more lonely nights. You're my guiding light, Day or night I'm always there. May I never miss the thrill of being near you, And if it takes a couple of years To turn your tears to laughter. I will do what I feel to be right. No more lonely nights, Never be another, No more lonely nights. You're my guiding light, Day or night I'm always there. And I won't go away until you tell me so, No I'll never go away. Yes I know what I feel to be right. No more lonely nights, Never be another, No more lonely nights. You're my guiding light, Day or night I'm always there And I won't go away until you tell me so No I'll never go away. No more lonely nights.

Sam - that last post was so good, I read it five times *heh heh!*

RE: Sam Leach - KEEP
I have checked their schedule & there are no UK dates - have they got any plans to tour England, Sam? Have they done any shows here before? I could get a hell of a lot of people to a London show!

RE: Sam Leach - KEEP
Hi Sam, Wow. I didn't realise you were laid so low with this chest infection - very, very glad to hear you're getting through it. We all want you to take care of yourself, you know what I'm saying! Have American English got any immediate plans to tour England - obviously I am very curious about this 'great band' everyone is talking about - I have only heard about them recently. From what I gather, they are a Beatles tribute band. Are they better than the Bootleg Beatles? I saw the Bootlegs at Dundee Caird Hall and they were superb. ..and yes, anyone who loves Rock 'n' Roll the way you do will be 'hip' forever. Take care, Sam. All the best, JLB.

Hi Lauren! thanks! the same goes for me! I'm always here too for anyone who needs someone to talk to! Sounds like your day is going well! I guess we all have our off days eh? Hmm Sam must be busy doing something i'm sure he'll be along soon! I'll say hello to him for you!
Glad to see you here Sara! Hello Sam, Glad you've got a date for your hip op - although you don't strike me as someone who needs to have anything done with your hip - you seem 'hip' enough to me! JLB.

Sam Leach:
Hi JLB. Yes Bolton was poor but we were robbed of an equaliser...right ?? I'm guessing you support Arsenal. (?). We'll get to you next year. BTW out of curiosity which band are you in ?? If you don't want it public e-mail me at sam@samleach.com Cheers Sam.
No, I support the mighty Coventry City! You'll proably play us... erm, when we draw you in the FA Cup or League Cup in a few years time because I can't see us returning to the Premiership for a long while, despite the appointment of Peter Reid. I'm off to Highfield Road tomorrow to watch us against Rotherham - a glamour tie! I don't get to that many matches as I live in London, but I try to make it to at least a dozen a season which isn't bad going. I'm not in a band at the moment, Sam. I used to be a session musician when I was in my early 20s, but never made any commitment to a band and now my full-time job gets in the way of playing music. I drive trains for a living & the varied shift work makes it impossible to tie myself to anything! It's something I would love to get back into though. I still play a lot of guitar & keyboards at home though - not as much as I would like to, obviously. And yes, you were robbed of an equaliser against Bolton - not as blatant as that dreadful decision that went Man Utds way against Blackburn the other week though!

Sam Leach:
Hi Jeff_Lynnes_Beard. Sorry this reply is belated but I've been quite ill with a nasty chest infection caught after Liverpool's great win last Saturday. We're looking good again...right !! I enjoyed reading your post which also put the situation most aptly. And the kind things you said made me even more big-headed, heh, heh. Do you know any good carpenters as I can't get out the door. Have a great weekend.....and lets take the Ryder Cup back on Sunday. The way we're playing it might even be Saturday. (Sorry Mike). Cheers. Sam.
Hi Sam, Glad to have you back with us and also glad you are recovering from your chest infection. You're right, Liverpool do look like a good team again and are certainly on form but the match against Bolton the other week wasn't the best performance I have ever seen to say the least Still, every new manager needs time and he's aquitting himself admirably at the moment. Enjoy the Ryder Cup - we're doing well, hope it stays that way! All the best, have a good weekend! JLB.

RE: Sam Leach - KEEP
Hello Sam, Have just been reading that thread in "The Broadcast" and, for what it's worth, I fully support what you wrote. I am not a 'star-struck syncophat' or whatever people supporting your stance were called - I don't regard you as a 'star' for a start (!), just a decent bloke and a great author. I don't know whether 'Dom' knows the great feeling of hatred for "that rag" 'The Sun' in Liverpool or why. Maybe he doesn't know what a red rag to a bull such a comment would be to a Liverpool supporter and Liverpudlian. What 'The Sun' did was unforgivable. I agree with your comment about Paul's image with the 'under-35s' and Glastonbury. After his show, Paul was on the cover of the NME (average reader age about 18!) and sales of Beatles and Paul's solo albums rocketed nationwide. If he wasn't popular with that age group before Glasto, he has made giant steps towards popularity to the younger age groups since. I am also amazed at the large scale of the attack on Geoff Baker. I have read the press releases, read Paul's comments and basically thought - "oh well, that's that then". This isn't a war breaking out, people dying or a mass-famine, it's a rock star's publicist leaving the fold! Paul & Geoff had differences - who's going to leave the Paul McCartney empire? It's not going to be Paul McCartney, is it? Some people seem to want to defend Paul's honour, reputation or god-knows what, but I honestly don't think it's necessary. Something has gone wrong there between Paul and Geoff and if people think they know what's going on or the complete circumstances when they aren't involved in 'the inner sanctum' then they're mistaken. You can't expect anything but utter rubbish from the tabloids, either. Why it has to be turned into who's right and who's wrong I don't know. It's unneccesary and causes bad feeling. It's evident that many people who know and have met Geoff have a lot of good things to say about him and Paul, in his statement, points to years of friendship - not employment or service, but friendship. It should be left there. Comments about Geoff as a 'pot-head' and a 'stoner' are completely uncalled for. I don't buy the fact that Geoff was pushed out the door for being a pot smoker. Surely Macca, after spending time in a Japanese prison for 'the herb' wouldn't be that hypocritical? I suppose Dom has the right to criticise Geoff's publicity work, especially if there were blatant lies being published, but it's a largely unbalanced depiction to pick on the negatives when, if you took an objective view of his career with Paul, they are probably isolated incidents far outweighed by the good work he did for Paul. He was there for a long time, after all. I though Dom's comments about you riding on the back of the Beatles' success was uncalled for, insulting and untrue. I suggest you send him a copy of your book - as long as he sends you a cheque, of course! The biggest impression that I got of you from your book was your wit, cheek and total, unabashed love of Rock 'n' Roll and The Beatles. You didn't deserve the things that were said about you in that forum, Sam. All the best, JLB. PS. Am posting this here as opposed to the original thread because it is a message to Sam and concerned more about the impact of what was said to and about Sam than Geoff himself.

Do you sell 'Timothy Taylor's Landlord' and if so can I have about eight bottles of it please. Or pints, if you've got it on draught... I've had enough of sobriety.

Thanks for those three, Daniel. I enjoy early Elvis a little more but later Elvis holds a lot of appeal, too. Some of his 60s & 70s ballads and their delivery were phenomenal. I could give his religious stuff a miss though...

RE: Elvis Presley
You're a bit of an Elvis fan then Daniel? I think he's a terrific performer and one of the most important icons of Rock 'n' Roll but I have one problem... His back catalogue is so inaccessible! I have a greatest hits double CD which is superb, but I would like a little more Elvis. Trouble is, whenever I go to the record store, there are literally hundreds of CDs - all of probably very varied quality! Some are probably re-hashes, compilations, live albums (that don't tell you unless it's in the small print on the sleeve) and it just ends up with me unable to choose anything, so I give up rather than buying an £11 disappointment. Any tips on what to buy?
