A Snot on you she wants to be loved by anyone
Real Lyric It's not unusual to be loved by anyone
(Tom Jones)

No, John - that was Manfred Man!
See Piglet's posting above - Paul is gorgeous, and hasn't aged a bit!


Lynda, the ageing groupie :-(

Why do you have to be a park ranger?
Real Lyric Why do you have to be a heartbreaker?
(Dionne Warwick)

Is Paul Jones the one with the goatee beard and glasses :-S

Have a lovely evening tomorrow, Geordie. I won't be thinking of you, as I fear a certain rugby team will be getting a thrashing about the time you start screaming. I will be under the sofa crying:-( :-(

Oooh I served Paul Jones when I was working at the Post Office (now no longer there) at the top of Waterloo Road junction Stamford Street.

He's ever so tall and ever so gorgeous...mmmmmmm

I'm going to see Paul Jones with Manfred Man tomorrow night. My (very minor) claim to fame is that I has a dance with him in 1967!!

I remember going to see Lonnie Donegan perform in the early 60`s .
Mark Wynter was also on the bill singing "Venus in Blue Jeans".

Oh Happy days :-D

John that is so funny. Believe me I have the worst singing voice ever. I was made to stand at the back of the choir in Sunday School when I was seven years old, and some things have not improved with age. :-(

Madonna: Like a Virgin
Like a virgin touched for the thirty-first time.

Elvis Presley: Hound Dog
You ain't never pornographic and you ain't no friend of mine

Bee Gees: More Than A Woman
Norman's a woman, Norman's a woman to me

Starship: We Built This City
We built this city on the wrong damn road.

Paula+ Have just realised I have seen you on telly singing. Your partner sang:

Hey, hey Paula, I wanna marry you
Hey, hey Paula, no one else will ever do
I've waited so long for school to be through
Paula, I can't wait no more for you
My love, my love :-D :-D

Oh, the memories. Still looking good. :-)

lol @ John. My friends husband still sings it despite frequently being told the proper words. :-D :-D

Just returned home and am now singing the Reverend Blue Jeans over and over.

Oh, Paula+ :-( ;-)

I like that, Paula what a lovely image! :-D :-D

My friends husband always sang (and believed he was right) the Neil Diamond song was The reverend Blue Jeans not Forever in Blue Jeans... ;-)

For some reason ever since I saw the title of this thread I keep hearing Julie Andrews singing The Hills are Alive.......

Oh, I see - I thought that "the sidewinder sleeps, sleeps, sleeps in the car".! :-D

"The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonite"

This here is the place where I will be staying
There isn't a number, you can call the pay phone
Let it ring a long, long, long, long time
If I don't pick up, hang up, call back, let it ring some more, oh
If I don't pick up, pick up
The sidewinder sleeps, sleeps, sleeps in a coil

Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her, oh

There are scratches all around the coin slot
Like a heartbeat, baby trying to wake up
But this machine can only swallow money
You can't lay a patch by computer design
It's just a lot of stupid, stupid signs

Tell her
Tell her she can kiss my ass
Then laugh and say that you were only kidding
That way she'll know that it's really, really, really, really me
CHORUS

Baby, instant soup doesn't really grab me
Today I need something more sub-sub-sub-substantial
A can of beans or black-eyed peas, some Nescafe and ice
A candy bar, a falling star, or a reading from Doctor Seuss
CHORUS

The cat in the hat came back, wrecked a lot of havoc on the way
Always had a smile and a reason to pretend
But their world has flat backgrounds and little need to sleep but to dream
The sidewinder sleeps on his back
CHORUS
CHORUS

We've got to moogie, moogie, move on this one

PP

I was going to post that line about the wife and kids last night, as that was what I always sang....but thought no best not

I do have that single on vinyl, but was too young to buy it in april 1969, I think I swapped something for it a few years later.

Re "Sidewinder" - I always thought it was Going To Jamaica, and then something like - I can always keep standing up

Piglets Pal~~

Believe it or not it's supposed to be
Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her

:-)
