Back in the 80's, aboard my ship. Our Skipper loved to let the crew pick tunes almost every evening at sea. Members of the crew would call the pilot house, and make requests. Then they'd play it over the ships announcing system that really sounded great on the warm nights when the moon was bright.
I liked this one. And eventually. Upon our return to home port. The crew agreed to Neil Diamond's AMERICA! Goose pimple, and Proud times they were.
I love to make Liberals Cry, and Whine.
So, this is for them.
GOD BLESS AMERICA - IN GOD WE TRUST !
Off Excitable Boy (1978).
I went home with the waitress
the way I always do
How was I to know
she was with the
Russians too?
I was gambling in Havana
I took a little risk
Send lawyers, guns and money
Dad, get me out of this, hah!
I'm the innocent bystander
Somehow I got stuck
between the rock
and a hard place
and I'm down on my luck
Yes I'm down on my luck
Well I'm down on my luck
I'm hiding in Honduras
I'm a desperate man
Send lawyers, guns and money
the shit has hit the fan
All right
Send lawyers, guns and money
Huh!
Uhh!
Send lawyers, guns and money
Uhh!
Send lawyers, guns and money
Hyah!
Send lawyers, guns and money
Ooh!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Uh!

Ennio Morricone - Once Upon a Time in the West
If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the results of a hundred battles.
Sun Tzu
We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language, for we intend to see that the crucible turns our people out as Americans, of American nationality, and not as dwellers in a polyglot boarding-house; and we have room for but one soul loyalty, and that is loyalty to the American people. ~Theodore Roosevelt~
Ahhh...yes...Friday afternoon coffee and a song....
Consider yourself lucky, LongTermGuy !!! Taking the thread title literally, just a handful of minutes ago I finished listening to a live feed of an Obama speech, from BBC News. Usually on the hour, and every quarter-hour, they supply news summaries. It's rare for them to suspend any of those. BUT ... they did so, tonight, to broadcast Obama from beginning to end.
They rounded it off with commentary from BBC staff that was nothing less than complimentary. More, they commented on the 'pain' the 'Confederate flag has caused' ....
I'll just break off to reach for the sick bag, before pondering if I want to withhold the BBC's license fee (.. currently a criminal offence in these parts ..).
