I am from the states but definitely remember Renaisance. A few "progressive" radio stations here played their stuff. I remember sitting in my car in the dark in 1978? listening to some of their songs like Mother Russia or Ocean Gypsy (at the time I thought that was the greatest song ever

Well, I'm sure meeting A. Haslam was great for you. I have a MP3 on my computer of her singing "Shine" -- very sweet indeed. --Oh good; I see the download service I use has some albums by Annie Haslam available.

My mood music for every day it seems is the first CD of Foo Fighters' latest (In Your Honor)...I'm just in a kick-ass-rockin mood lately.

Do you get high? does your daddy cry? -- controversy

Our father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us
Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil
For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever

hey here goes renaissance only uk hit

NORTHERN LIGHTS

Destination outward bound
I turn to see the northern lights behind the wing
Horizons seem to beckon me
Learned how to cry too young, so now I live to sing

The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
Horizons seem to beckon me
Learned how to cry too young, so now I live to sing

You know it's hard away from you
Travelling roads and passing through
It's not for money and it's not for fame
I just can't explain, sometimes it's lonely

Marking the space between the days
Early hours pass away
I sing to you of northern lights
I sing for you of northern nights

Past or future, here or there
Shelter comes in words from you, so talk to me
I hear your voice, it comforts me
In morning dreams I take your hand, you walk with me

The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
Peace enfolds the still night air
Home again I look for you and find you there

Desintation homeward now
Take the easy way, bring me down
Making the hard way now I see
Hard to be really free, I'm missing you near me

Marking the space between the days
Early hours pass away
I sing to you of northern lights
I sing for you of northern nights

Chorus:

The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
The northern nights are in my eyes
They guide me back to you

Repeat chorus twice

The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you

lol here is one for my reputation here as a good time girl and a drinker !!!!! Believe it or not ui used to be a punk rocker with he mohawk and that in BLue !!!! And i loved this band too

"Dead Kennedys ..........Too Drunk To Fuck

Went to a party
I danced all night
I drank 16 beers
And I started up a fight

But now I am jaded
You're out of luck
I'm rolling down the stairs
Too drunk to fuck

Too drunk to fuck
Too drunk to fuck
Too drunk, to fuck
I'm too drunk, too drunk, too drunk
To fuck

I like your stories
I love your gun
Shooting out truck tires
Sounds like loads and loads of fun

But in my room
Wish you were dead
You ball like the baby
In Eraserhead

Too drunk to fuck
Too drunk to fuck
Too drunk, to fuck
It's all I need right now
Too drunk to fuck

Too drunk to fuck
Too drunk to fuck
Too drunk, to fuck
I'm sick soft gooey and cold
Too drunk to fuck

I'm about to drop
My head's a mess
The only salvation is
I'll never see you again

You give me head
It makes it worse
Take out your fuckin' retainer
Put it in your purse

I'm too drunk to fuck
You're to drunk to fuck
Too drunk to fuck
It's all I need right now Oh baby
I'm melting like an ice cream bar
Oh baby

And now I got diarrhea
Too drunk to fuck
Yeah, Yeah
Yeah, Yeah
Yeah, Yeah
Oooohhh

Oh wow, that is coincidence. I just heard that Northern Lights song via the radio for the first time last week. I thought, thats a bit of allright, so I downloaded it 2 days ago.

the Christians - Hooverville

The doubt of work sends the out of work man,
To city a hope and a home.
One door shuts here another two slam,
Yes he's homeless he's hopeless alone.
Row upon row of a castle in Spain, make up a fool's paradise.
The still born brainchild of a main with no brain,
The ballot box baby that died.

Oh Hooverville, and they promised us the world,
In Hooverville, said the streets that were paved with silver and gold,
Oh Hooverville, yes they promised us the world,
Crying for the moon.

Dirty faced children sit in the road, in the shanty town shacks they call home.
The comfort of knowing they won't be there long,
Is the only comfort they know.
A young scream a young dream is lost in the night,
Along with the young will to live,
Along with the masses, that gave up the fight,
A fight for a reason to live,

Oh Hooverville, and they promised us the world,
In Hooverville, said the streets that were paved with silver and gold,
Oh Hooverville, yes they promised us the world,in Hooverville,
And as fools we believed every last word they said,
I believed every last word you said.

Oh Hooverville, and they promised us the world,
In Hooverville, said the streets that were paved with silver and gold,
Oh Hooverville, and they promised us a roof above our heads,
in Hooverville,
And as fools we believed every last word they said,

Their hope is so high, when they arrive,
Their hope is their only possession in life,
Another man dies, another man cries,
Mr Politician open up you eyes,
Open up your eyes,
Crying for the moon.

this song is fab i been listening to my old songs today and i used to love suzi i really wanted to be just like her back then ...this is my favourirte suzi quatro song

Suzi Quatro..... She´S In Love With You

She's in love with you, that's all she wants to do
She'll never let you down, she'll never fool around
'Coz she's in love with you

So if you see her all alone one night
walk up to her discreetly, ask her why
And if she replies with words that don't make sense
it may be just because she's shy
Don't take advantage of her lack of understanding
just because you think you could
Treat her right, treat her good,
take her home and make her feel the way she should

'Coz she's in love with you, that's all she wants to do
She'll never let you down, she'll never fool around
'Coz she's in love with you
She's in love with you, that's all she wants to do
She'll never let you go, she may not let you know,
but she's in love with you

So if you happen to be out one night
and someone asks you where you're gonna go
Just remember she's not like the other girls
she may not want them all to know
Though she may need a little time
she never wants to stand in line the way they would
So treat her nice, treat her good, treat her like you know you should
You may never find another girl like her

'Coz she's in love with you, that's all she wants to do
She'll never let you down, she'll never fool around
'Coz she's in love with you
She's in love with you, that's all she wants to do
She'll never let you go, she may not let you know,
but she's in love with you

So take her home and hold her close,
touch her where she feels it most, but be true
And when she's making love to you,
she'll do what you want her to
Treat her good, treat her like you know you should
You may never find another girl like her

'Coz she's in love with you, that's all she wants to do
She'll never let you down, she'll never fool around
'Coz she's in love with you
She's in love with you, that's all she wants to do
She'll never let you go, she may not let you know, but she's in love with you
She's in love with you, that's all she wants to do
She'll never let you go, she may not let you know, but she's in love with you
'Coz she's in love with you, that's all she wants to do
She'll never let you down, she'll never fool around
'Coz she's in love with you

Joni Mitchell - Carey

The wind is in from africa
Last night I couldn’t sleep
Oh, you know it sure is hard to leave here carey
But it’s really not my home
My fingernails are filthy, I got beach tar on my feet
And I miss my clean white linen and my fancy french cologne

Oh carey get out your cane
And I’ll put on some silver
Oh you’re a mean old daddy, but I like you fine

Come on down to the mermaid cafe and I will buy you a bottle of wine
And we’ll laugh and toast to nothing and smash our empty glasses down
Let’s have a round for these freaks and these soldiers
A round for these friends of mine
Let’s have another round for the bright red devil
Who keeps me in this tourist town

Come on, carey, get out your cane
I’ll put on some silver
Oh you’re a mean old daddy, but I like you

Maybe I’ll go to amsterdam
Or maybe I’ll go to rome
And rent me a grand piano and put some flowers ’round my room
But let’s not talk about fare-thee-welis now
The night is a starry dome.
And they’re playin’ that scratchy rock and roll
Beneath the matalla moon

Come on, carey, get out your cane
And I’ll put on some silver
You’re a mean old daddy, but I like you

The wind is in from africa
Last night I couldn’t sleep
Oh, you know it sure is hard to leave here
But, it’s really not my home
Maybe it’s been too long a time
Since I was scramblin’ down in the street
Now they got me used to that clean white linen
And that fancy french cologne

Oh carey, get out your cane
I’ll put on my finest silver
We’ll go to the mermaid cafe
Have fun tonight
I said, oh, you’re a mean old daddy, but you’re out of sight

This is a fine tune and especially for todays us a and british government in mind

The Jam ............ Going Underground


Some people might say my life is in a rut
But I'm quite happy with what I got
People might say that I should strive for more
But I'm so happy I can't see the point
Somethings happening here today
A show of strength with your boy's brigade and
I'm so happy and you're so kind
You want more money of course I don't mind
To buy nuclear textbooks for atomic crimes
And the public gets what the public wants
But I want nothing this society's got
I'm going underground, (going underground)
Well the brass bands play and feet start to pound
Going underground, (going underground)
Well let the boys all sing and let the boys all shout for tomorrow

Some people might get some pleasure out of hate
Me, I've enough already on my plate
People might need some tension to relax
Me, I'm too busy dodging 'tween the flak

What you see is what you get
You've made your bed, you better lie in it
You choose your leaders and place your trust
As their lies wash you down and their promises rust
You'll see kidney machines replaced by rockets and guns
And the public wants what the public gets
But I don't get what this society wants
I'm going underground, (going underground)
Well the brass bands play and feet start to pound
Going underground, (going underground)
So let the boys all sing and let the boys all shout for tomorrow

We talk and talk until my head explodes
I turn on the news and my body froze
The braying sheep on my TV screen
Make this boy shout, make this boy scream

Going underground, I'm going underground
I'm going underground, I'm going underground

The braying sheep on my TV screen
Make this boy shout, make this boy scream

Going underground, well the brass bands play and feet start to pound
Going underground, let the boys all sing and let the boys all shout
Going underground, well the brass bands play and feet start to pound
Going underground, let the boys all sing and let the boys all shout for tomorrow
