After the Music Died — It Got the Link Leak Virus

by

Tueday Night Music Comment Night

Open Comments Last Night was held down in Nashville. Folks were singing and dancing. Songs were stuck in our heads. Some folks admitted a predilection for men in uniforms, especially those who had swords. We danced so hard we lost the server. Then, the nasty link leak virus played a tune on things as well. Link Leak Virus is a special strain of the indie virus with blogtipping mutations that occur in threes edged its way in.

Cool links were shared.

If you listen you can hear, Joe singing Crimson and Clover over and over.

OK everybody, you all mentally shout this out, and Liz and I will go for it – ready?

“Don’t know why
I’m survivin’ ev’ry lonely day
When there’s got to be no chance for me
My life would end
And it doesn’t matter how I cry
My tears, so far, are a waste of time
If I turn away
Am I strong enough to see it through
Go crazy is what I will do

If I can’t have you
I don’t want nobody baby
If I can’t have you, uh-huh, oh
If I can’t have you
I don’t want nobody baby
If I can’t have you, uh-ho”

Hi everyone! My wife had me in the back yard going

Down, down, down
In a burning ring of fire.

I’m back. No, Joe, the words are: “Mares eat oats and does eat oats, and little lambs eat ivy. A kid’ll eat ivy too, wouldn’t you.”

Shirley, I remember the words I used when I sang it as a “kid”‘ll eat ivy too, wouldn’t you.

I wouldn’t eat ivy, even if you paid me.

Liz, I believe the kids they are referring to are animals–goats or sheep or something like that. lol

Liz,
That seems the only thing left to get rid of all the Ivy on my front lawn

125
ME Strauss Says:

I know that, Shirley, but I’m still not eating that ivy. No way!

Susan Reynolds Says:

Oh – and isn’t ivy poisonous or do I have my vines twisted?

Joe,
Plant some holly bushes and you can sing
“The Holly and the Ivy” this Christmas.

Kids love clover! Just hire a couple of kids for the summer to take care of it for you!:)

Joe, After you sing “the holly and the ivy,” you could walk over to the clover, cut your own finger and sing “Crimson and Clover”…

Christine,
That was excellent!
In fact, he could get stuck and sing
Crimson and clover over and over.

Hey guys!

I’m on vacation! Just about to eat dinner and then relax for the evening. I probably won’t be back, but I couldn’t miss a bit of open mic!

Liz — you find Basil yet?

BEN!!!!
No sign of Basil. I think he’s down on Rush Street trying to pick up ladies.

Hey Ben, Basil probably took Donkey out to find some beer and waffles.

We talked about music with city names and names of people and tried to stick song in each others’ heads. Take a look at all of the titles that got mentioned. Until we crashed the server and it became the night that . . .

the music died, but that’s another song altogether.

the end

–ME “Liz” Strauss
