Subject: RE: want to find a song From: alison Date: 08 Oct 98 - 07:58 PM hi, I stand corrected. The International lyrics server is a great site, where you can search either by song title or name of the band. It is definately the best place to get pop lyrics. That's why I pointed you there.

Subject: RE: want to find a song From: Big Mick Date: 09 Oct 98 - 12:38 AM I've got "Nora Lee" covered for you. I just got in from practicing with the world famous "Conklin Ceili Band" and I am beat. I will post them tomorrow.' All the best, Mick |

Subject: RE: want to find a song From: Joe Offer Date: 09 Oct 98 - 01:31 AM This isn't AURA LEE (click here) we're talking about here, eh? "Nora Lee" is a totally different woman, with the same tune? -Joe Offer- |
|
Subject: RE: want to find a song From: Barbara Date: 09 Oct 98 - 06:37 AM And Klaus, is it possible that the Joan Baez song is "In the Pines", which is here in the database? I can't remember whether Joan sang that one or not, but look it up and see if that's the one. Put [in the pines] like that, in the box, upper right and enter. Blessings, Barbara |

Subject: RE: want to find a song From: Peter T. Date: 10 Oct 98 - 02:19 PM She did sing it, and it is utterly terrifying. It is on the "Very Early Joan Baez" album from Vanguard. Brrrr. Yours, Peter T. |

Subject: Nora Lee From: Big Mick Date: 10 Oct 98 - 03:07 PM OK Klaus, here you go. Here are the words to "Nora Lee" from the "Folksongs and Ballads of Ireland, Book 4" collection by Ossian. By the way, Joe, the notes are as follows: "Nora Lee, also known as 'Aura Lee' in America, has Been around for a long time. One version was unearthed by Richard Hayward and recorded in the 1940's. If the tune sounds familiar -- you're right: it's much better known as 'Love Me Tender', an Elvis Presley classic. The copyright notice on Love Me Tender says: 1950 words and music by Elvis Presley & Vera Matson. This seems a bit cheeky -- the tune is definitely the same as Nora Lee." I agree.

All beside a small green hill,
Chorus
In your blush the rose was born,
Chorus
When the mistletoe is green

Subject: RE: want to find a song From: skydiver8@webtv.net Date: 15 Oct 98 - 04:25 PM I really need the words to Mickey Gilley's hit "Don't the girls all get prettier at closing time"
Thank You, Louis Lombardo Franklin, La. |

Subject: RE: want to find a song From: Frank in the swamps Date: 15 Oct 98 - 04:26 PM Yes Peter! It's been ages since I heard that Allan Sherman medley, thanks for the reminder. "Oh she's cockeyed & musclebound....." Frank i.t.s. |

Subject: RE: want to find a song From: Pete Peterson Date: 16 Oct 98 - 12:46 AM I always thought Aura Lee was yet another Stephen Foster hit. Am I wrong? PETE |

Subject: RE: want to find a song From: dick greenhaus Date: 16 Oct 98 - 01:29 PM Dammit! If you want to introduce a new subject, start a new thread. We don't charge extra, and this way, it's almost impossible to find stuff. |

Subject: RE: want to find a song From: Roger in Baltimore Date: 18 Oct 98 - 10:30 AM STOP!!! READ THIS BEFORE YOU GO FURTHER!!!
We at the Mudcat prefer that new song requests get posted as a separate thread. If you are reading this and thinking, "I could ask about ...." Please go back to the main page either by using the back button in your browser or by clicking on Main Forum at the bottom of the page. Click on start a thread. Give your thread a title like LYR REQ: "your song title here" If you don't know the title, type in a prominent phrase. My suggestion to Mudcatters is that we let this thread die by not responding to it. Roger in Baltimore |

Subject: RE: want to find a song From: Klaus Helmer Date: 18 Oct 98 - 11:55 AM Thanks to everybody - I am quite overwhelmed by all the answers - I just need "The River in the Pines" which is from the album "Farewell, Angelina", and not "In the Pines" which is a different song. |
|
Subject: RE: want to find a song From: Bruce O. Date: 18 Oct 98 - 03:14 PM In addition to Roger's comments above, please give something more than the title if you have it. There are so many songs with the same or nearly the same title that it often takes many postings to get the song properly identified when one starts with a title alone. |

A wonderful, apocalyptic, sci/fi, story.
If I don't jump in here soon enough, no-doubt B.S. will lead you, to John, (no maybe it was Mathew) ((no perhaps, Joan of Arc)) (((could it be JC himself?))(((I don't know, but it was someone religous.))) ((((No I think it was Edna St. Vincent Belay....that's it!!!))))
It was written by Pulitzer Prize Winner (John Brown's Body) Stephen Vincent Benet and was first a poem and then a short story titled "The Place of the Gods." Planet of the Apes could be considered a "spin-off" of this tale.

Subject: RE: want to find a song From: Joe Offer Date: 19 Oct 98 - 10:50 PM I would like to dedicate this thread to the stupid people who insist on using generic thread names for their song requestsGargoyle, do you want to tell us more about these saints of yours? We could use a little spiritual enlightenment just now.... -Joe Offer- |

Subject: RE: want to find a song From: Nelsen_Wayne@TMAC.CO> Date: 14 Mar 99 - 10:44 AM Want song title to lyrics that in part are: "... from the house to the graveyard was his only ride". It's a song about a man who buys a car, but the only ride he gets in it is a ride to the graveyard. |
|
Subject: RE: want to find a song From: Philippa Date: 14 Mar 99 - 11:23 AM Wow, Wayne, how did you manage to pull this thread out of the archives?! since you're seeking a completely different song, it would be better to start a new thread with an appropriate title such as: Lyrics wanted: car ride to the graveyard |
|
Subject: RE: want to find a song From: Roger in Baltimore Date: 14 Mar 99 - 02:56 PM Yeah, Wayne!!! I want to know, too. If we could figure out how you got here, we could find a way to divert similar requests. Did you use a search engine to find the site? If you did, what did you search under? "Find a song?" I'm also curious how you got past this:
or this:
I would like to dedicate this thread to the So that's it Wayne. One, how did you get connected to a thread from October '98 which many of us hoped had died a respectful and deserved death? Two, how or why did you ignore the two postings from above? If you can answer these questions, we just might find your song lyrics. Give a little respect, get a little respect. Roger in Baltimore |

Subject: RE: want to find a song From: Lonesome EJ Date: 14 Mar 99 - 11:46 PM WARNING This is not a thread- this is a virus |
|
Subject: RE: want to find a song From: Philippa Date: 15 Mar 99 - 10:30 AM Roger, you could read the "lighten up" thread and tone down your criticism of a newcomer. Though I too wondered how Wayne missed the red notice directly above his! By the way, I tried to e-mail Wayne, but the message was returned. everyone who read Roger's notice, probably you shouldn't follow the example of putting quotation marks around your song title as we had a problem with the system not reading quotation marks in thread names. I'm not sure whether this problem has been sorted out yet? |

Subject: RE: want to find a song From: richlmo Date: 21 Sep 00 - 10:59 PM To: finafyr@aol.com Wish I knew the lyrics you asked for. Wish the rest of these yahoos understood that this was a request for a specific song! Just read a quote on an e-page by Voltaire, " Common sense is not so common." Guess that was the case in 1750 too. |
