No problem. However, we are now rudderless. So, wherever the wind may blow is where we will go. I enjoyed the video recap.

Batch #3 :

22 "Bond. James Bond."

23 "There's no place like home."

24 "I am big! It's the pictures that got small."

25 "Show me the money!"

26 "Why don't you come up sometime and see me?"

27 "I'm walking here! I'm walking here!"

28 "Play it, Sam. Play 'As Time Goes By.'"

29 "You can't handle the truth!"

30 "I want to be alone."

31 "After all, tomorrow is another day!"

32 "Round up the usual suspects."

I'm not touching #26, with or without a ten foot pole

#26 - "Slide On Over"

#32 - "Gotta Get Away"

I honestly can't think what would go with the others,even checking our song list here. :confused:

oh dear, I've been playing the converse of these clearly stated guidelines

other folk's responses where throwin me off but they are right on...I've watched citizen kane 2 times this week, searching over and over for this alleged tattoo, lol

Don't worry about it. I succumbed to the mutinous crew a long time ago. Do with it as you wish. Anything goes.......

#25 Show me the money....Whisper my Name. It has the same 'feel' to it, I think.
#30 I want to be alone....The Watchman's Gone.

Borderstone's #26 is perfect! Slide On Over is such a come on song....lol.

Borderstone 02-24-2009 04:20 PM

Re: Whay Lightfoot tune fits ?
 
#27 : "I'm Walking Here,I'm Walking Here" ..."Don't Beat Me Down" (?)

Thanks Nightengale,it came right to me when I read that one.
Pictured Mae West bumping her hip into some guy in a movie I saw years ago. LOL!

I think the number one greatest line from a movie should be Gord in 'Harry Tracy' saying myrthfully an old John Wayne line, "Are ya havin' any of it ?" lol . That , or the vastly-under-rated actor: Bruce Dern saying to Gord, the Marshall, who was...a bit rotund for a year or two there (which I have heard is very common right after admirably quitting the bottle: "Maury - you're almost lookin like you're with child"

Now THERE would be a song - if either DawnMinstrel or Kefera are still taking requests - both, at one time or another said that they would consider it - I thinnk it was DawnMinstre who mentioned it maybe...big maybe ( I don't want to be generous with his time...lol) covering the song from Harry Tracey. Didn't Gord write the lyrics and part-out the melody, or vice- versa in a rare move on that one ? I'm ashamed to say I don't remember. I'll look in lightfoot.ca ~ ..... dink dink dink WWGT ?
