He's used "Beautiful Day", "These Are The Days" and "HELP!" in previous year's shows. Any, uh, "HELP!" from you members would be great if you have any ideas. | ||

Joined: August 2003 Posts: 2246 Location: Yucaipa, California | "Time" Pink Floyd. ;) ~Time David Gilmour, Roger Waters, Richard Wright, Nick Mason Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town Waiting for someone or something to show you the way Tired of lying in the sunshine Staying home to watch the rain And you are young and life is long And there is time to kill today And then one day you find Ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run You missed the starting gun And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking Racing around to come up behind you again The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older Shorter of breath and one day closer to death Every year is getting shorter Never seem to find the time Plans that either come to naught Or half a page of scribbled lines Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way The time is gone The song is over Thought I'd something more to say Home, home again I like to be here when I can When I come home cold and tired It's good to warm my bones beside the fire Far away across the field The tolling of the iron bell Calls the faithful to their knees To hear the softly spoken magic spells ~~ | ||

Joined: October 2005 Posts: 5328 Location: Cicero, NY | "Paranoid" - good one; Right Here, Right Now - Cannot Buh-LIEVE I didn't come up with that one! Great suggestion. And Mike, you're right - Toby's Linus & Ukey is a very cool arrangement. As mucha s I hate to admit it, it's turned into a Christmas standard around the Weas household. Thanks, everybody - great stuff. | ||
