First, HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIS! Time flies, but I'd counsel as I always do. Try to do something fun, even if it's just for a few minutes.


I'm in a pretty good mood this morning.

Kinda the "Things could be better, things could be worse" mindset. Traffic was a pain the ass, as there was a wreck that blocked 2 lanes at one point. I hate the commute. I miss a 5 minute commute. :-P

So, was thinking of a theme CD, and going with "Kings". No, the latest song burrowed in my head isn't influencing me at all, no. :-) So, we have "King without a Crown", "King of Spain", "King of Pain". How many other King songs are there that you all know about? Ideas? Suggestions? This sounds like a fun mini-project (as if I don't have enough already, with an assignment due tomorrow, and then a forum to post in by Friday.

King For A Day by Green Day ^_^

And you made me remember a song, similarly titles (think it was King for just one day or such) by The Thompson Twins.

Thanks. :-)

King of New York

[per_solo]

by whom? And thanks. :-)

[duelingrose.livejournal.com]

It's from Newsies... ^-^ uh... Christian Bale sings in it?

[per_solo]

Cool. That should be enough to find it and add it to the mix. :-)

And, another movie I've never seen, kept meaning too, but just never made the time. Good one?

[duelingrose.livejournal.com]

It's... a musical. I really liked it, but it has mixed reviews.

Some pretty good talent, though.

The Hall of the King is another one, from the Medival Times soundtrack, but it has no vocals.

By the way, I want a copy of this. ^-^

Also, I Just Can't Wait to be King... from the Lion King.

I think I can do this all day.

*heh* Is that Grieg's "In the Hall of the Mountain King"? Starts out light, then is just chaos at the end of it?

Will get you a copy of it, once I have it all compiled. :-)

[duelingrose.livejournal.com]

No, I have the CD at home... I'll look it up ^-^

I have another song, The Kilburn High Road, by Flogging Molly.

There's no King in the title, but the chorus reads "We're the kings of the Kilburn High."

But then you open a whole bag of worms.

[per_solo]

Ok. *nod* Will bear the flogging molly one in mind, however, will see if I fill it with King titles first. :-P

Happy birthday to your sister!

Hmmm. What about King of the Road by Roger Miller? It's not exactly a rock song, but it has king in the title.

[per_solo]

Thanks.

Hey, I didn't say it had to have more of a theme than just "King" in the title, so that one works, too. Thanks. :-)

It's good to be king by tom petty.

[per_solo]

*heh* Good one. Amazing to hear all the titles, this is gonna be a fun project.

And on a *winkwink* *nudgenudge* part, you helped me, as did AK, and I'll know more soon.

"King of Wishful Thinking" by Go West.

(Yes, the 80's music nerd is showing up.)

[cassandramorgan.livejournal.com]

I was trying to think of that song but I couldn't remember the title! For some reason, my brain would stop at "I'm the king of"

^_^

[per_solo]

Awesome, it's on the list. :-)

The Return of the King, Uh-Huh Tom Smith

[per_solo]

DAMNIT, how could I have missed THAT one.
