John Agnello? He's a producer, the initials are right, should be him!

Got a question for us?

[The Big Come Up]

Nope. you guys haven't guessed the right one yet.

I had to go I check. Well I never knew that he was involved!  :o

Here's where I got confused. I have the original UK release. That track wasn't (& still isn't) on the UK CDs.

Yeah DB, i see how that can be confusing. I forgot that there are several different versions of the the album.

Can you guess the one Dark?


(subtle hint hidden somewhere above  ::))

Cool!

I'll try to think of a question now...

[Chills]

Yep, it's on.

Here's a lyrical fragment from one of my favorite tunes of all time.
Name the tune and the author.

I was sitting in the Hollywood Hawaiian Hotel
I was staring in my empty coffee cup
I was thinking that the gypsy wasn't lyin'
All the salty margaritas in Los Angeles
I'm gonna drink 'em up

And if California slides into the ocean
Like the mystics and statistics say it will
I predict this motel will be standing until I pay my bill

is it leonard cohen?  can't remember the name of the song, something about the chelsea motel?  or am i off-base?

[dragonboy]

Could well be Leonard Cohen, Serg is a big fan. I was thinking Warren Zevon but you've made me doubt myself now  :-/

[dragonboy]

I just went from here to the Sound Advice thread...

Good one, Serg. Z-E-V-O-N  ;)

Was that a clue?!! I KNEW it was Warren!!!  :D

I just went from here to the Sound Advice thread...

from bob dylan:
keep a good head and always carry a light bulb

from frank zappa:
don't eat the yellow snow

The yellow snow from where the huskies go?

the same.

Good one, Serg. Z-E-V-O-N  ;)

Was that a clue?!! I KNEW it was Warren!!!  :D

Indeed, that was a clue! So was my new signature.

Still waking up in the mornings with shaking hands
And I'm trying to find a girl who understands me
But except in dreams you're never really free
Don't the sun look angry at me

I was sitting in the Hollywood Hawaiian Hotel
I was listening to the air conditioner hum
It went mmmmmm..
........................... Look away..........................................
(Look away down Gower Avenue, Look away....)

:)

[dragonboy]

Can't remember the song title for the life of me though (I know songs as No1, No2, the 2nd one from last etc)
I only have Warren Zevon & Genius so it has to be on one of those...

I understand.

But that means ZERO POINTS for you  ;D

Don't the sun look angry through the trees
Don't the trees look like crucified thieves
Don't you feel like ....................(ENTER TITLE HERE)
Heaven help the one who leaves


Now there's no more I can do for those still in play.

[dragonboy]

 ;D  I knew you weren't going to give it! (bastard!)

[aMD]

OH!!! desperados under the eaves

damn, haven't heard that one in a while. i'm going to dig up that leonard cohen song i wa thinking of and post it in i will sing you songs.

[Chills]

;D  I knew you weren't going to give it! (bastard!)

I'm off now, but I'll give the answer tomorrow if nobody got it by then.

You could always look it up in the meanwhile





(of course that means minus one point)
