Match the DF Member and a song

[Pacion]

Based on the characters we have here at DF (Sabor! :lol: ) if you had to assign/match a song to a person's persona, what would you match them up with and dare enquiring minds ask why :wink: ?

[Christina75]

Does it have to be a dance song?

Christina

[Pacion]

No, any song. Even nursery rhymes are allowed :lol:

[cocodrilo]

"Sasori-za no Onna" (Scorpio Woman), although it's in Japanese and by a transvestite, this popular song relates to scorpions, so...............

[Genesius Redux]

Christina75--"Peanuts Theme Song" by Vince Guaraldi--but that's too easy; her avatar is a dead give away!

TemptressToo--"I Got It Bad (And That Ain't Good)" (tough vulnerability)

Salsachinita--"La Bamba" (it's just an image I get)

Scorp--"Bohemian Rhapsody" (because of his need to bust out)

Pygmalion--"Rhapsody in Blue" or "Come Sunday" (haven't decided, but it has to be something rich, classic, and fundamental)

SDsalsaguy--"Purple People Eater" (do I really need to explain?)

Pacion--"La gloria eres tu" (because of her romantic soul)

The others I still have to think about.

I LOVE THAT SONG! :D It makes me wish I could play the piano. It's a great "hop around the house where nobody can see you" song.

Then surely you have Guaraldi prominently in your CD collection. I really dig the Christmas album. :D

:oops: no I don't. I have a whole list of CD's I intend to buy "one day". Guaraldi is on the list.
I have a second job where I work part time in a department store. During the Christmas season, "Linus and Lucy" was on frequent rotation on the store's radio station.

"Linus and Lucy" is actually the song I was thinking of when I mentioned hopping around the house. :)

[etchuck]

Well, the song that pretty much matches with me:

I Ain't Got Nobody (Just a Gigolo) ;)

While I guess I grew up with the David Lee Roth version, I wouldn't mind the more classic rendition by Louis Prima (if there wasn't someone before him).

Decent slow swing. Could west-coast to it.

P.S. A couple of friends of mine attended a wedding this past weekend. Apparently the couple was introduced to the melodic dulcet tones of...

She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy by Tim McGraw

Now that's a great dance tune!

That's always my big number at karaoke! And yes, Prima created the medley, as far as I know. But who knows, he was so steeped in the New Orleans scene that anyone could have been putting those numbers together. 8)

[salsachinita]

Salsachinita--"La Bamba" (it's just an image I get)

:shock: :lol:

Never thought of myself this way.....

My Spanish isn't really good enough for me to know lyrics, but a couple of songs have been dedicated to me by DJs: "Los Ojitos Chinos" by El Gran Combo & "Lady" by Los Palabras.

I personally like "Vivir Lo Nuestro" by Marc Anthony & La India 8) .

* :oops: now I'm just waiting for someone to tell me that the lyrics don't fit :oops: *

Absolutely . . . I knew we were on the the "same page."

[pygmalion]

Random thought. How many sets of embedded quotes can one use before the computer system quits? :shock: :lol:

[SDsalsaguy]

Well, at least they aren't quoting 5 paragraph posts just to add a three word response! :evil:

:lol:

[peachexploration]

Peach--"Georgia On My Mind"
I like it....I like it. :lol: :lol:

You've all done it at least once!

Be gentle on me . . . it was my FIRST time!

I'm still wondering... who matches with "Dancing Queen" by Abba?

[ShyDancer]

Well Id like to match myself to that song..but I dont think Im quite there yet, gimme a few years :lol: :lol:

I'm still trying to think of a song for you, ShyDancer. You're kind of subtle so it's taking me some thought. :wink:

[pygmalion]

Not sure why, but the first song that came to mind was Lady, by Kenny Rogers. Think I'll google for the lyrics, and see what triggered the thought. :? :)

[pygmalion]

Now I know why. ShyDancer's a mom with a couple kids at home, and this is the song her husband should be singing. She is a knight in shining armor. 8)
Lady Lyrics

(Lionel Richie Jr.)

Lady, I'm your knight in shining armor and I love you
You have made me what I am and I am yours
My love, there's so many ways I want to say I love you
Let me hold you in my arms forever more

You have gone and made me such a fool
I'm so lost in your love
And oh, we belong together
Won't you believe in my song?

Lady, for so many years I thought I'd never find you
You have come into my life and made me whole
Forever let me wake to see you each and every morning
Let me hear you whisper softly in my ear

In my eyes I see no one else but you
There's no other love like our love
And yes, oh yes, I'll always want you near me
I've waited for you for so long

Lady, your love's the only love I need
And beside me is where I want you to be
'Cause, my love, there's somethin' I want you to know
You're the love of my life, you're my lady!

[pygmalion]

By the way, these are my lyrics (much as I can't stand Diana Ross, this song strikes a chord in my life, just now.)



It's My Turn
Diana Ross
I can't cover up my feelings
In the name of love
Or play it safe
For a while that was easy
And if living for myself
Is what I'm guilty of
Go on and sentence me
I'll still be free

It's my turn
To see what I can see
I hope you'll understand
This time's just for me

Because it's my turn
With no apologies
I've given up the truth
To those I've tried to please

But now it's my turn
If I don't have all the answers
At least I know I'll take my share of chances
Ain't no use of holding of
When nothing stays the same

So I'll let it rain
'Cause the rain ain't gonna hurt me
And I'll let you go
'Though I know it won't be easy

It's my turn
With no more room for lies
For years I'd seen my life
Through someone else's eyes

And now it's my turn
To try and find my way
And if I should get lost
At least I'll own today

It's my turn
Yes, it's my turn
And there ain't no use in holding of
When nothing stays the same

So I'll let it rain
'Cause the rain ain't gonna hurt me
And I'll let you go
'Though I know it won't be easy

It's my turn
To see what I can see
I hope you'll understand
This time's just for me

Because it's my turn
To turn and say goodbye
I sure would like to know
That you're still on my side

Because it's my turn
It's my turn

It's my turn
To start from number one
Trying to undo
Some damage that's been done

But now it's my turn
To reach and touch the sky
No one's gonna say
At least I didn't try

It's my turn
Yes, it's my turn
It's my turn
It's my turn
It's my turn


Don't ask. :?

[NeoDevin]

What about me?

[pygmalion]

Um. Just a gigolo? :twisted: :lol: Or is that already taken? :oops: Iguess I'll have to think of something else. Hmm. :?

Now I know why. ShyDancer's a mom with a couple kids at home, and this is the song her husband should be singing. She is a knight in shining armor. 8)

Aww thank you Pygmalion :D :D :D
Although if my partner ever tried singing to me Id probably laugh at him! :lol: :lol: :lol: Im the most unromantic creature on earth!

[pygmalion]

That may be. But every woman deserves a little romance. And moms deserve a lot of romance. :)

[ShyDancer]

What about me?

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Sorry I just have to laugh!

There is a song out on the charts here in Aus called What about me?

Lyrics==

"What about me? , It isnt fair,
Ive had enough now I want my share,
Cant you see, I wanna live,
But you just take more than you give"

[etchuck]

NeoDevin: Sharp Dressed Man by ZZ Top :?:

Pygmalion/Jenn: Okay... I'll ask... why don't you like Diana Ross?

[Swing Kitten]

Swing Kitten--"It's a Wonderful World"

Good pick -- I adore Louis Armstrong singing this song

what made you choose this one?

[Swing Kitten]

btw-- Just a Gigolo was originally done by Ted Lewis in 1931

[salsachinita]

Has anyone thought of one for GR yet....?

[Swing Kitten]

somehow the song "Mr. Roboto" comes to mind... I don't know why and I can't vouch for it's accuracy

[Genesius Redux]

btw-- Just a Gigolo was originally done by Ted Lewis in 1931

The tune's an old one--but the medley with "Ain't Got Nobody," I think is Prima's.

"It's a Wonderful World" because of your outlook. 8)

[Swing Kitten]

which medly exacty.... I never heard prima's version. the lyrics "ain't got nobody" have always been there

[SDsalsaguy]

* Random iterlude... SK's post (above) is the 7777th post in DA! :D *

[Genesius Redux]

which medly exacty.... I never heard prima's version. the lyrics "ain't got nobody" have always been there

Is that right? I thought they were two separate tunes. Okay, so I'm gonna have to go listen to the earlier recording. :o 8)

[Swing Kitten]

look online for the lyrics ... that's what I did ;)

[Swing Kitten]

* Random iterlude... SK's post (above) is the 7777th post in DA! :D *

WooHoo! GO DA!!

[Christina75]

Has anyone thought of one for GR yet....?

Scenes From An Italian Resturant?

Hot for Teacher?

Do The Bartman?

just ideas...
Christina :D

[Vince A]

I'm still trying to find one that fits GR . . .

He "wows" all the women here on the DFs . . .
He is an actor . . .
He is a dancer . . .

His avatar makes him out to be a "real cool" guy . . .

The very first song that popped into my head . . .

He is definitely one of those "Nashville Cats" by the Lovin Spoonful!

[tj]

We seem to have left Miss Pacion out of the topic! How about:

"Lady" by Orchestra Palabra (mostly since she's fond of the song) or possibly something by Victor Manuelle

[Genesius Redux]

:lol:

Sorry I've missed all the fun, guys--thank you for your generous suggestions. Left to pick for myself, I'd go with "Only the Good Die Young," but Christina's "Scenes from an Italian Restaurant" fits me pretty well. I'm curious about "Mr. Roboto" now. And I'm wondering why Christina says "Hot for Teacher"? :shock:

Vince--my avatar is meant to suggest underachieving wisecracker, and I'm not sure that I've ever "wowed" any women in ways that I would like. But I definitely dance and act. :lol:

And yes, I at least suggested one for Pacion--"La gloria eres tu." I've not come up with stuff for ShyDancer or dancin_feet or Sagitta or etchuck. Any ideas?

[Christina75]

:lol:

And I'm wondering why Christina says "Hot for Teacher"? :shock:



:feigned innocent look: What???
There aren't that many teacher songs to choose from. LOL

[delamusica]

for pygmalion might i also suggest "kung fu fighting"?

:)

see "where is the strangest place you've ever danced"

[youngsta]

So does the song title have to have something to do with them, or can it just be the sound of the song?? I've got something rattling in my head for boriken!

[dancingdragon]

I'm still wondering... who matches with "Dancing Queen" by Abba?

Long gone are the days when I was "young and sweet, only 17" :lol:

[SDsalsaguy]

for pygmalion might i also suggest "kung fu fighting"?
I think we may need to hold that one for scorpionguy... :lol:

[delamusica]

true, so true. :D

[NeoDevin]

:lol: :lol: I'll take "Dancing Queen" :lol: :lol:

[cocodrilo]

but....are you a queen? :wink:

[pygmalion]

for pygmalion might i also suggest "kung fu fighting"?

:)

see "where is the strangest place you've ever danced"

LOL. I thought you'd been talking with my Tae Kwon Do school. :shock: :lol:

[delamusica]

maybe i have . . . mwahahaha . . .

yeah, umm - nevermind . . .

[pygmalion]

That's a great evil laugh you have there! :wink: :lol:
