ATF: Reminiscing

This series will include as many of my all-time favorite (ATF) tunes as I can get my grubby little hands on (so to speak).  Now, each one included in each edition will have some connection with the other—albeit only as a figment of my imagination, but they will not be numbered.  For I just cannot bring myself to rate some higher than others.  So, this will not be a countdown, but if you are enjoying them as much as I do, it won’t matter.  Besides, with no countdown, this could go on forever and ever!  Oh, and despite the fact that there is absolutely no way your musical tastes could be as exquisite as mine, I welcome any suggestions you might dare to make.  For I am, after all, quite magnanimous by nature.



Norwegian Wood
The Beatles
I once had a girl
Or should I say
She once had me
She showed me her room
Isn't it good
Norwegian wood

She asked me to stay
And she told me to sit anywhere
So I looked around
And I noticed there wasn't a chair

I sat on the rug
Biding my time
Drinking her wine
We talked until two
And then she said
It's time for bed

She told me she worked in the morning
And started to laugh
I told her I didn't
And crawled off to sleep in the bath

And when I awoke
I was alone
This bird had flown
So I lit a fire
Isn't it good
Norwegian wood


Link: [Skid Row]


I Remember You
Skid Row
Woke up to the sound of pouring rain
The wind would whisper
And I'd think of you
And all the tears you cried
That called my name
And when you needed me
I came through

I paint a picture of the days gone by
When love went blind
And you would make me see
I'd stare a lifetime into your eyes
So that I knew you were there for me
Time after time
You were there for me

Remember yesterday
Walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand
I remember you
Through the sleepless nights
Through every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say
I remember you

We spend the summer with the top rolled down
Wished ever after
Would be like this
You said I love you babe without a sound
I said I'd give my life for just one kiss
I'd live for your smile
And die for your kiss

Remember yesterday
Walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand
I remember you
Through the sleepless nights
Through every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say
I remember you

We've had our share of hard times
But that's the price we paid
And through it all we kept
The promise that we made
I swear you'll never be lonely

Woke up to the sound of pouring rain
Washed away a dream of you
But nothing else could ever take you away
'Cause you'll always be my dream come true
Oh my darling
I love you

Remember yesterday
Walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand
I remember you
Through the sleepless nights
And every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say
I remember you
Remember yesterday
Walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand
I remember you
Through all the sleepless nights
Through all the endless days
I'd wanna hear you say
I remember
I remember
You
Oh yeah
Oh
Yeah

  2. Since you are a non-reply blogger, I couldn't answer your question about using my header on your list of blog site. You are welcome to use it, but I change it pretty often. BTW, I have checked out your NZ blogs and some of them have not been used for years, so you might want to be sure the blogs you list are active. That would be very frustrating to me if I were looking for blogs to follow.

    1. Thanks For stopping by, my dear Bettyl!!! I will get right on displaying your header as soon as I can. We have included many sites that have not been posted to in years for the value of their content (in one way or another) remains. In the case of a site being taken down or taken private, it is removed from the listings.

Since the Blogger spam filter has been found sorely lacking lately, I will start moderating comments. Be assured that I am only interested in deleting spam. So, if you feel a need to take me to task over something—even anonymously, go ahead and let 'er rip, and I will publish it as soon as I can.
