Wonder how long it will last?

[mulholland drive]

Wow!

One post from me...zap! Right to the top of the Hot! list...

[mulholland drive]

Still pondering...

How about another clue?

[mulholland drive]

My test was about frequency...

:)

[mr.mark]

i'll give you a clue about my test....

it's about time. it's about other stuff too, but largely about time

:)

mark

[mulholland drive]

hmmmm...

I think my test may be the same as your test..

at any rate..

I like my test

as the test worked.

[mr.mark]

you just want me to let you in on what the test was about....


fine grub

[mulholland drive]

This is another test...

I 'll let you know if it works.


<edit>

LOL...yup, it worked!!

[mr.mark]

for all times

[mulholland drive]

Glad to be of service...

It's good to be a favorite and not just "recent"...

:)

[mr.mark]

oh by no means should you feel that way!

i needed to test something, and i wanted to post to a little known thread (dylan fits that category, eh?) to keep the test out of the public eye.

then i merely picked my favorite person on the thread to post to...

:)

mark

[mulholland drive]

How is it that you always manage to make me feel like I've been had??

:)

[mr.mark]

ah, but it worked, sweet luna.

one day i will be at liberty to discuss the intricacies of the test

but for now

i have seen that it works

:)

mark

[mulholland drive]

>>did it work?<<

I think you better do it again....

"oh yeah right you have to go out to the thread list to view it"

my word, you are correct!

[mr.mark]

i went to the site, though, and saw the poster.

man, he sure looks young. not young like freewheelin' young, but very young nevertheless, eh?

.. hey does this not work on iHub any more ... !

... oh yeah right you have to go out to the thread list to view it

[mr.mark]

i'm trying a little test on something...

will let ya know how it works out

did it work?

[mulholland drive]

The bridge at midnight trembles,
The country doctor rambles,
Bankers' nieces seek perfection,
Expecting all the gifts that wise men bring.
The wind howls like a hammer,
The night blows cold and rainy,
My love she's like some raven
At my window with a broken wing.

Best dylan lyrics collection on the web - http://orad.dent.kyushu-u.ac.jp/dylan/song.html
... to my knowledge anyway ... loads fast like iHub though it's hosted in Japan, go figure ... some of the lyrics are slightly mispelled, [geez now i'm not sure how to spell mispelt, lol], probably done by somebody to whom english is a second language but they are very well done nevertheless, i'd like to buy whoever does this site a beer

... just a few of my favourites, there are so many ... decent poetry maybe, but should be heard in original versions for full effect ... maybe you had to be there in the sixties to appreciate it though, hard to say ... life doesn't have the constraints on the young and the black and the hispano that it did then .... but this man and his words are significant history in the opinions of a lot of us geezers ... cheers

[mulholland drive]

Shadows are falling and I've been here all day

It's too hot to sleep time is running away

Feel like my soul has turned into steel

I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal

There's not even room enough to be anywhere

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there

Well my sense of humanity has gone down the drain

Behind every beautiful thing there's been some kind of pain

She wrote me a letter and she wrote it so kind

She put down in writing what was in her mind

I just don't see why I should even care

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there

Well, I've been to London and I've been to gay Paree

I've followed the river and I got to the sea

I've been down on the bottom of a world full of lies

I ain't looking for nothing in anyone's eyes

Sometimes my burden seems more than I can bear

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there

I was born here and I'll die here against my will

I know it looks like I'm moving, but I'm standing still

Every nerve in my body is so vacant and numb

I can't even remember what it was I came here to get away from

Don't even hear a murmur of a prayer

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.

[mulholland drive]

I got new eyes

Everything looks far away

Well, my heart's in the Highlands at the break of day

Over the hills and far away

There's a way to get there, and I'll figure it out somehow

But I'm already there in my mind

And that's good enough for now

[mr.mark]

oh the comrades all
that i've had
there's none that's left to boast

and i'm left alone
in my misery
like some old poor wandering ghost

and i pass by
from town to town
they call me the rambling sign

there goes tom moore
a bummer sure
in the days of '49

- warner, lomax and lomax

[mr.mark]

belle isle

one evening for pleasure
i rambled with you
in the fair fields all alone
down by the banks of loche erin
where beauty and pleasure were known
i spied a fair maid at her labor
which caused me to stay for awhile
and i thought of her goddess of beauty
the blooming bright star of brighte isle

i humbled myself to her beauty
fair maiden where do you belong
are you from heaven descended
abiding cupid's bare throne
young man i will tell you a secret
it's true i'm a maid that is poor
and to part from my vows and my promise
tis more than my heart can endure
therefore i remain at my service
and go through with my hardship and toil
and wait for the lad that has left me
all alone on the banks of belle isle

young maiden i wish not to banter
tis true i come here in disguise
i came here to fulfill my last promise
and hope to give you a surprise
i know you're a maid i love dearly
and you've been in my heart all the while
for me there is no other damsel
than my blooming bright star of belle isle

[mr.mark]

you're the one i've been looking for
you're the one that's got the key
but i can't figure out whether i'm too good for you
or you're too good for me

[mulholland drive]

Maybe someday there'll be nothing to tell.
I'm just as happy as you, baby, I just can't say it so well.
Never slumbered or slept or waited for lightning to strike.
There's no excuse for you to say that we don't think alike.
You said you were going' to Frisco, stay a couple of months.
I always liked San Francisco, I was there for a party once.
Maybe someday you'll see that it's true
There was no greater love than what I had for you.

[mulholland drive]

In the time of my confession, in the hour of my deepest need
When the pool of tears beneath my feet flood every newborn seed
There's a dyin' voice within me reaching out somewhere,
Toiling in the danger and in the morals of despair.

Don't have the inclination to look back on any mistake,
Like Cain, I now behold this chain of events that I must break.
In the fury of the moment I can see the Master's hand
In every leaf that trembles, in every grain of sand.

Oh, the flowers of indulgence and the weeds of yesteryear,
Like criminals, they have choked the breath of conscience and good cheer.
The sun beat down upon the steps of time to light the way
To ease the pain of idleness and the memory of decay.

I gaze into the doorway of temptation's angry flame
And every time I pass that way I always hear my name.
Then onward in my journey I come to understand
That every hair is numbered like every grain of sand.

I have gone from rags to riches in the sorrow of the night
In the violence of a summer's dream, in the chill of a wintry light,
In the bitter dance of loneliness fading into space,
In the broken mirror of innocence on each forgotten face.

I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea
Sometimes I turn, there's someone there, other times it's only me.
I am hanging in the balance of the reality of man
Like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand.

[mulholland drive]

To be alone with you
Just you and me
Now won't you tell me true
Ain't that the way it oughta be?
To hold each other tight
The whole night through
Ev'rything is always right
When I'm alone with you.

To be alone with you
At the close of the day
With only you in view
While evening slips away
It only goes to show
That while life's pleasures be few
The only one I know
Is when I'm alone with you.

They say that nighttime is the right time
To be with the one you love
Too many thoughts get in the way in the day
But you're always what I'm thinkin' of
I wish the night were here
Bringin' me all of your charms
When only you are near
To hold me in your arms.

I'll always thank the Lord
When my working day's through
I get my sweet reward
To be alone with you.

[mulholland drive]

Can't you hear that rooster crowin'?
Rabbit runnin' down across the road
Underneath the bridge where the water flowed through
So happy just to see you smile
Underneath the sky of blue
On this new morning, new morning
On this new morning with you.

Can't you hear that motor turnin'?
Automobile comin' into style
Comin' down the road for a country mile or two
So happy just to see you smile
Underneath the sky of blue
On this new morning, new morning
On this new morning with you.

The night passed away so quickly
It always does when you're with me.

Can't you feel that sun a-shinin'?
Ground hog runnin' by the country stream
This must be the day that all of my dreams come true
So happy just to be alive
Underneath the sky of blue
On this new morning, new morning
On this new morning with you.

So happy just to be alive
Underneath the sky of blue
On this new morning, new morning
On this new morning with you.
New morning . . .

[mr.mark]

now all the authorities
they just stand around and boast
how they blackmailed the sergeant-at-arms
into leaving his post
and picking up angel
who just arrived here
from the coast
who looked so fine at first
but left looking just like a ghost

[mr.mark]

she said where ya been?

i said no place special

she said you look different

i said well i guess

she said you been gone

i said it's only natural

she said you gonna stay?

i said if you want me to yes

[mr.mark]

take care of all your memories
said my friend mick
for you cannot
relive them

and remember when you're out there
trying to heal the sick
that you must always first
forgive them

open the door richard
i've heard it said before
open the door richard
i've heard it said before
but i ain't gonna hear it said no more

[mr.mark]

i fought with my twin
that enemy within
til both of us fell
by the way

horseplay and disease
is killing me by degrees
while the law looks
the other way

your partners in crime
hit me up for nickels and dimes
the man you were loving
could never get clean

it felt out of place
my foot in his face
but he should have stayed where
his money was green

i bit into the root
of forbidden fruit
with the juice running
down my leg

i've dealt with your boss
who'd never known about loss
who always was
too proud to beg

there's a white diamond gloom
on the dark side of this room
and a pathway that
leads up to the stars

if you don't believe there's a price
for this sweet paradise
just remind me to
show you the scars

there's a new day at dawn
and i've finally arrived
if i'm there in the morning baby
you'll know i've survived

i can't believe it
i can't believe i'm alive
but without you it
doesn't seem right

oh
where are you tonight

http://bobdylan.com/audio/albumtracks/RealAudio/whereareyou_street.ram

[mr.mark]

well we're drivin' this car
and the sun is coming up over the rockies
now i know she ain't you
but she's here
and she's got that dark rhythm in her soul
but i'm too over the edge
and i ain't in the mood anymore
to remember the times when i was your only man
and she don't want to remind me
she knows this car would go out of control

brownsville girl
with your brownsville curls
teeth like pearls
shining like the moon above

brownsville girl
show me all around the world
brownsville girl
you're my honey love

[mr.mark]

don't want to burn nobody
don't want to be burned

don't want to learn from nobody
what i gotta unlearn

don't want to cheat nobody
don't want to be cheated

don't want to defeat nobody
if they already been defeated

but if you do right to me baby
i'll do right to you too
you got to do unto others

like you'd have them
like you'd have them
do unto you

[mr.mark]

my eyes collide
head-on with stuffed
graveyards
false gods
i scuff
at pettiness
which plays so rough
walk upside-down
inside handcuffs
kick my legs
to crash it off
say alright
i've had enough
what else can you show me

and if my thought-dreams
could be seen
they'd probably put my head
in a guillotine
but it's alright ma
it's life and life only

[mr.mark]

thanks, mark

you're welcome, matt

LOL, try Bob Dylan Matt, you'll have better luck searching for him. He became famous for his music, had a wierd voice and even stranger lyrics, but all the doppers like him! Good trippin music, I guess!

(site name taken from dylan lyric "everybody is making love or else expecting rain", from the song, 'desolation row')

Now the moon is almost hidden
The stars are beginning to hide
The fortunetelling lady
Has even taken all her things inside
All except for Cain and Abel
And the hunchback of Notre Dame
Everybody is making love
Or else expecting rain
And the Good Samaritan, he's dressing
He's getting ready for the show
He's going to the carnival tonight
On Desolation Row

You know, I don't know a single thing about Dylan. I barely know his first name. John, right? <g>

I need to get an education on the dood, who he is, what he did/does.

Point me somewhere to start.

[mulholland drive]

Look out across the fields, see me returning,
Smoke is in your eye, you draw a smile.
From the fireplace where my letters to you are burning,
You've had time to think about it for a while.

Well, I've walked two hundred miles, now look me over,
It's the end of the chase and the moon is high.
It won't matter who loves who,
You'll love me or I'll love you
When the night comes falling from the sky.

I can see through your walls and I know you're hurting,
Sorrow covers you up like a cape.
Only yesterday I know that you've been flirting
With disaster that you managed to escape.

I can't provide for you no easy answers,
Who are you that I should have to lie?
You'll know all about it, love,
It'll fit you like a glove
When the night comes falling from the sky.

I can hear your trembling heart beat like a river,
You must have been protecting someone last time I called.
I've never asked you for nothing you couldn't deliver,
I've never asked you to set yourself up for a fall.

I saw thousands who could have overcome the darkness,
For the love of a lousy buck, I've watched them die.
Stick around, baby, we're not through,
Don't look for me, I'll see you
When the night comes falling from the sky.

In your teardrops, I can see my own reflection,
It was on the northern border of Texas where I crossed the line.
I don't want to be a fool starving for affection,
I don't want to drown in someone else's wine.

For all eternity I think I will remember
That icy wind that's howling in your eye.
You will seek me and you'll find me In the wasteland of your mind
When the night comes falling from the sky.

Well, I sent you my feelings in a letter
But you were gambling for support.
This time tomorrow I'll know you better
When my memory is not so short.

This time I'm asking for freedom,
Freedom from a world which you deny.
And you'll give it to me now,
I'll take it anyhow
When the night comes falling from the sky.

[mulholland drive]

One more night, the stars are in sight
But tonight I'm as lonesome as can be.
Oh, the moon is shinin' bright,
Lighting ev'rything in sight,
But tonight no light will shine on me.

Oh, it's shameful and it's sad,
I lost the only pal I had,
I just could not be what she wanted me to be.
I will turn my head up high
To that dark and rolling sky,
For tonight no light will shine on me.

I was so mistaken when I thought that she'd be true,
I had no idea what a woman in love would do!

One more night, I will wait for the light
While the wind blows high above the tree.
Oh, I miss my darling so,
I didn't mean to see her go,
But tonight no light will shine on me.

One more night, the moon is shinin' bright
And the wind blows high above the tree.
Oh, I miss that woman so,
I didn't mean to see her go,
But tonight no light will shine on me.

[mulholland drive]

They say "Drink and be merry,
Take the bull by the horns."
I keep seeing visions of you, a lily among thorns
Everything looks a little far away to me

Gettin' harder and harder to recognize the trap
Too much information about nothin'
Too much educated rap
It's just like you told me, just like you said it would be

The moon rising like wildfire
I feel the breath of a storm
Something I got to do tonight
You go inside and stay warm

Someone's got a hold of my heart
Someone's got a hold of my heart
Someone's got a hold of my heart
You-
Yeah, you got a hold of my heart

Just got back from a city of powder blue skies
Everybody thinks with their stomach
There's plenty of spies
Every street is crooked, they just wind around till they disappear

Madame Butterfly, she lulls me to sleep
Like an ancient river
So wide and deep
She said, "Be easy, baby, ain't nothin' worth stealin' here"

You're the one I've been waitin' for
You're the one I desire
But you must first realize
I'm not another man for hire

Someone's got a hold of my heart
Someone's got a hold of my heart
Someone's got a hold of my heart
You, you, you, you
Yeah, you got a hold of my heart

I hear the hot-blooded singer
On the bandstand croon
September Song, Memphis in June
While they're beating the devil out of a guy who's wearing a flaming red wig

I been to Babylon
I gotta confess
I can still hear that voice crying in the wilderness
What looks large from a distance, close up is never that big
Never could learn to drink that blood and call it wine
Never could learn to look at your face and call it mine.

Someone's got a hold of my heart
Someone's got a hold of my heart
Someone's got a hold of my heart
You-
Yeah, you got a hold of my heart

[mulholland drive]

Well, I'm walkin' down the line,
I'm walkin' down the line
An' I'm walkin' down the line.
My feet'll be a-flyin'
To tell about my troubled mind.

I got a heavy-headed gal
I got a heavy-headed gal
I got a heavy-headed gal
She ain't feelin' well
When she's better only time will tell

Well, I'm walkin' down the line,
I'm walkin' down the line
An' I'm walkin' down the line.
My feet'll be a-flyin'
To tell about my troubled mind.

My money comes and goes
My money comes and goes
My money comes and goes
And rolls and flows and rolls and flows
Through the holes in the pockets in my clothes

Well, I'm walkin' down the line,
I'm walkin' down the line
An' I'm walkin' down the line.
My feet'll be a-flyin'
To tell about my troubled mind.

I see the morning light
I see the morning light
Well it's not because
I'm an early riser
I didn't go to sleep last night

Well, I'm walkin' down the line,
I'm walkin' down the line
An' I'm walkin' down the line.
My feet'll be a-flyin'
To tell about my troubled mind.

I got my walkin' shoes
I got my walkin' shoes
I got my walkin' shoes
An' I ain't a-gonna lose
I believe I got the walkin' blues

Well, I'm walkin' down the line,
I'm walkin' down the line
An' I'm walkin' down the line.
My feet'll be a-flyin'
To tell about my troubled mind.
