That reminded me of another of my favorites, also by Nazareth.

Please Don't Judas Me


A version from Metallica http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QU_9ZChsVOw

Here is Nazareth doing Miss Misery and Please Don't Judas Me somewhat recently http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6It13rpAgg

And Miss Misery in 1975 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nc2KVafGGjw

I feel creaky now....

I had never heard the Metallica version...interesting...but good


Me either. One thing that I like about Metallica, they have always done a good job of paying homage to the bands that came before them. Their version of Blue Oyster Cult's "Astronomy" is excellent.

LMAO I think the songs that we keep putting out there are dating all of us Erin

It's obvious what era my interest in music lies.

I was looking for a driver that was qualified
So if you think your the one step into me ride.
Get ya where ya want to go, if ya know what I mean
I have a ride smoother than a limousine
Can you handle the curves, can you run all the lights?
Cos if ya think you can we can go all night


It makes me cry every time I hear this song. Oh the tears they burn my face.

The Wizard (Uriah Heep)


THE WIZARD
He was the wizard
Of a thousand kings
And I chanced to meet him
One night wandering
He told me tales
And he drank my wine
Me and my magic man
Kinda feeling fine

He had a cloak of gold
And eyes of fire
And as he spoke
I felt a deep desire
To free the world
Of its fear and pain
And help the people
To feel free again

Why don't we listen to
The voices in our hearts
‘Cause then I know we'd find
We're not so far apart
Everybody's got to be happy
Everyone should sing
For we know the joy of life
The peace that love can bring

So spoke the wizard
In his mountain home
The vision of his wisdom
Means we'll never be alone
And I will dream of my magic night
And a million silver stars
That guide me with their light

Something For Nothing (Rush)

Waiting for the winds of change
To sweep the clouds away
Waiting for the rainbow's end
To cast its gold your way
Countless ways
You pass the days

Waiting for someone to call
And turn your world around
Looking for an answer
To the question you have found
Looking for
An open door

You don't get something for nothing
You can't have freedom for free
You won't get wise
With the sleep still in your eyes
No matter what your dreams might be

What you own is your own kingdom
What you do is your own glory
What you love is your own power
What you live is your own story
In your head is the answer
Let it guide you along
Let your heart be the anchor
And the beat of your own song

You don't get something for nothing
You can't have freedom for free
You won't get wise
With the sleep still in your eyes
No matter what your dreams might be

"Chasing Cars" by Snow Patrol.  It's "our song" and we both get all goofy when we hear it because we're a couple of saps. [:D]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxXwIIBlSgw

Lyrics:
We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Another song that reminds me of someone...tears fall every time.

The Flame- Cheap Trick

Another night slowly closes in,
And I feel so lonely.
Touching heat freezing on my skin,
I pretend you still hold me.
Im going crazy, Im losing sleep.
Im in too far, Im in way too deep over you.
I cant believe youre gone.
You were the first, youll be the last.

Wherever you go, Ill be with you.
Whatever you want, Ill give it to you.
Whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head upon.
Remember: after the fire, after all the rain,
I will be the flame.
I will be the flame.

Watching shadows move across the wall,
I feel so frightened.
I wanna run to you, I wanna call,
But Ive been hit by lightening.
Just cant stand up for fallin apart.
Cant see through this veil across my heart, over you.
Youll always be the one.
You were the first, youll be the last.

Wherever you go, Ill be with you.
Whatever you want, Ill give it to you.
Whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head upon.
Remember: after the fire, after all the rain,
I will be the flame.
I will be the flame.

Im going crazy, Im losing sleep.
Im in too far, Im in way too deep over you.
Youll always be the one.
You were the first, youll be the last.

Wherever you go, Ill be with you.
Whatever you want, Ill give it to you.
Whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head upon.
Remember: after the fire, after all the rain,
I will be the flame.
I will be the flame.

Whatever you want, Ill give it to you.
Wherever you go, Ill be with you.
And whatever you want, Ill give it to you.

oh, and how could I forget my favorite artist of all...

[image]http://www.brucespringsteen.net/art/songs/TheRiver.gif[/image]
I come from down in the valley
where mister when you're young
They bring you up to do like your daddy done
Me and Mary we met in high school
when she was just seventeen
We'd ride out of that valley down to where the fields were green

We'd go down to the river
And into the river we'd dive
Oh down to the river we'd ride

Then I got Mary pregnant
and man that was all she wrote
And for my nineteenth birthday I got a union card and a wedding coat
We went down to the courthouse
and the judge put it all to rest
No wedding day smiles no walk down the aisle
No flowers no wedding dress

That night we went down to the river
And into the river we'd dive
Oh down to the river we did ride

I got a job working construction for the Johnstown Company
But lately there ain't been much work on account of the economy
Now all them things that seemed so important
Well mister they vanished right into the air
Now I just act like I don't remember
Mary acts like she don't care

But I remember us riding in my brother's car
Her body tan and wet down at the reservoir
At night on them banks I'd lie awake
And pull her close just to feel each breath she'd take
Now those memories come back to haunt me
they haunt me like a curse
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true
Or is it something worse
that sends me down to the river
though I know the river is dry
That sends me down to the river tonight
Down to the river
my baby and I
Oh down to the river we ride

And this song is stunningly beautiful. if you never heard her voice, try her out...

Loreena McKennitt - The bonny swans
A farmer there lived in the north country
a hey ho bonny o
And he had daughters one, two, three
The swans swim so bonny o
These daughters they walked by the river's brim
a hey ho bonny o
The eldest pushed the youngest in
The swans swim so bonny o

Oh sister, oh sister, pray lend me your hand
with a hey ho a bonny o
And I will give you house and land
the swans swim so bonny o
I'll give you neither hand nor glove
with a hey ho a bonny o
Unless you give me your own true love
the swans swim so bonny o

Sometimes she sank, sometimes she swam
with a hey ho and a bonny o
Until she came to a miller's dam
the swans swim so bonny o
The miller's daughter, dressed in red
with a hey ho and a bonny o
She went for some water to make some bread
the swans swim so bonny o

Oh father, oh daddy, here swims a swan
with a hey ho and a bonny o
It's very like a gentle woman
the swans swim so bonny o

They placed her on the bank to dry
with a hey ho and a bonny o
There came a harper passing by
the swans swim so bonny o

He made harp pins of her fingers fair
with a hey ho and a bonny o
He made harp strings of her golden hair
the swans swim so bonny o
He made a harp of her breast bone
with a hey ho and a bonny o
And straight it began to play alone
the swans swim so bonny o

He brought it to her father's hall
with a hey ho and a bonny o
And there was the court, assembled all
the swans swim so bonny o
He laid the harp upon a stone
with a hey ho and a bonny o
And straight it began to play lone
the swans swim so bonny o

And there does sit my father the King
with a hey ho and a bonny o
And yonder sits my mother the Queen
the swans swim so bonny o
And there does sit my brother Hugh
with a hey ho and a bonny o
And by him William, sweet and true
the swans swim so bonny o
And there does sit my false sister, Anne
with a hey ho and a bonny o
Who drowned me for the sake of a man
the swans swim so bonny o

Neil Young ( w/ Crazy Horse ) Greendale - http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2791824732885945140

"Who the hell do they think they are...
Invading our home like that...
Grandma and I had to leave so quick
We couldn't even catch the cat"

"Grandpa died a hero.
Trying to stop the media.
Fighting for freedom of silence.
Trying to be anonymous."

LadyLynx -> RE: Songs that make you think, or cry.......or............ (11/11/2007 11:05:30 AM)

all these songs are wonderful, (and quite a few I needs to check out!)

A few others I thought of:

Leader of the Band-Dan Fogelberg (makes me think of my relationship with my dad. I tear up when I think of my dad not being here.)
Edmund Fitzgerald- Gordan Lightfoot
If you could read my mind-""
Right here Waiting-Richard Marx (doesn't make me cry, but it does pull my heart strings)
Right Hand Man-Joan Osborne.(again no crying, but it is such a rocking song that I couldn't help but list it.)
Keep it together-Madonna (classic family song. "Our Heartbeats together, forever,ever and ever.)
Sometimes when we touch-Dan Hill. (love lost.)
God Bless the USA- Lee Greenwood (I know, republican theme song, I still love it, have loved it since the day I heard it.)
