IluvJimmyPage Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Great memory "IluvJimmyPage," I also have a memory of some kind while in Drivers Training in High School. My best friend Tod and I were in the same school driver car along with our teacher and we were listening to "Rock Show" on the radio. It was raining hard that day and I could barely see where I was going and as I was making a left turn, I made the turn too wide resulting in me hitting a telephone poll. WHAT IS IT WITH ME AND TELEPHONE POLLS? After that, I got kicked out of class and had to take the class over again the following semester which I passed. Y-E-A-H! When I think of Pagey in a song, in my opinion, I can only think of one song that pretty much sums Jimmy up. That song, the 1986 classic "Wanted Dead Or Alive" by BON JOVI. Music & Lyrics by Jon Bon Jovi & Ritchie Sambora. The lyrics go like this word for word: In my opinion, that song pretty much sums up Jimmy Page. ROCK ON! Your story is too funny - I definitely needed a laugh today Yeah "Wanted Dead or Alive", that's a great song to think of Jimmy about. So many good ones on here!

ZeppFanForever Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Your story is too funny - I definitely needed a laugh today Yeah "Wanted Dead or Alive", that's a great song to think of Jimmy about. So many good ones on here! Thanks "IluvJimmyPage," it makes me feel great when I can put a smile on someone's face such as yourself. Now I expect for you to have a great day today especially since today is F-R-I-D-A-Y!!!! I know that I am since I got home early today from work. I now have the whole weekend off but I have to go back to work on Monday which is the 29th year anniversary of ZEPPELIN'S comeback performance at KNEBWORTH on 4 August 1979. I couldn't get Monday off, but I am definitely getting Tuesday off since I am taking the 4 August 1979 performance of KNEBWORTH on DVD to my friends bar which is Bicycle Club on Monday night and he is going to show the whole concert on three of his big screens. I know that I will not be in any condition to go in to work on Tuesday (5 August 2008) so I took Tuesday off to recuperate. I'm doing the same thing for the KNEBWORTH 11 August 1979 performance but I'll be showing that DVD at another friend's bar which is Stacy's Sports Bar. I'll be taking Tuesday off on 12 August 2008 to recuperate as well. Think of this coming weekend like all of the other weekend's as a weekend to celebrate Rock n' Roll. In the mean time, ROCK ON!

MadScreamingGallery Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Oh my goodness, when I saw this post about Venus and Mars/Rock Show I remembered back to something I did in high school and I started to crack up! We were in driver ed behind the wheel training and this song happened to come on the radio (I'm not sure exactly why we were even able to have the radio on at that time anyway! ) Well, it was my turn next to get behind the wheel, so we pulled the car over just as it was getting close to the part about Jimmy. I jumped out of my seat and was rushing the other girl out of the drivers seat, because I wanted to be driving the car when that part of the song came on (which of course I was ) One of the girls in the back who knew I was a Zeppelin & Pagey nut at that time was of course giggling about it That's a great story about your driver's ed class! I hate to say it, ILJP, and I didn't think it was possible, but I think that, as far as a youthful obsession with Pagey, you might have had it worse than I did.

aen27 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 I haven't thought of that song in years but it's a good choice. Another song, this one by Lynyrd Skynyrd: What's your name? What's your name, little girl? What's your name? I love that song. That does make me think of Jimmy actually. I wish I was that girl if it was Jimmy.

AMAZONIC Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Some passages of this song makes me think of Jimmy Juke box hero - Foreigner Standing in the rain, with his head hung low Couldn't get a ticket, it was a sold out show Heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene Put his ear to the wall, then like a distant scream He heard one guitar, just blew him away Saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day Bought a beat up six string in a secondhand store Didn't know how to play it, but he knew for sure That one guitar, felt good in his hands Didn't take long, to understand Just one guitar, slung way down low Was a one way ticket, only one way to go So he started rockin' ain't never gonna stop Gotta keep on rockin' Someday gonna make it to the top And be a JUKE BOX HERO got stars in his eyes He's a JUKE BOX HERO He took one guitar JUKE BOX HERO stars in his eyes JUKE BOX HERO he'll come alive tonight In a town without a name, in a heavy downpour Thought he passed his own shadow, by the backstage door Like a trip through the past, to that day in the rain And that one guitar made his whole life change Now he needs to keep rockin' he just can't stop Gotta keep on rockin' that boy has got to stay on top And be a JUKE BOX HERO got stars in his eyes He's a JUKE BOX HERO got stars in his eyes Yeah JUKE BOX HERO stars in his eyes WITH THAT ONE GUITAR he'll come alive Come alive tonight Yeah, He's gotta keep a rockin' He just can't stop Gotta keep on Rockin' That Boy has got to be on top And be a JUKE BOX HERO got stars in his eyes He's a JUKE BOX HERO got stars in his eyes With just one guitar JUKE BOX HERO with stars in his eyes C'mon he's just a JUKE BOX HERO JUKE BOX HERO JUKE BOX HERO He's got stars in his eyes Stars in his eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadScreamingGallery Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 I love that song. That does make me think of Jimmy actually. I wish I was that girl if it was Jimmy. I love that song too! But then the guy in the song says, "What was your name, little girl?" - he doesn't even remember her. After Freebird, it's probably my favorite Skynard song.

IluvJimmyPage Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 I have always thought of Jimmy when I have heard the songs "Magic Man" and "Feel Like Making Love" as people had mentioned above. Here is another song that I would always daydream about Pagey when I heard it (and still do ) ... Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Still.... You Turn Me On Do you wanna be an angel Do you wanna be a star Do you wanna play some magic On my guitar Do you wanna be a poet Do you wanna be my string You could be anything Do you wanna be the lover of another undercover You could even be the Man on the moon Do you wanna be the player Do you wanna be the string Let me tell you something It just don't mean a thing You see it really doesn't matter When you're buried in disguise By the dark glass on your eyes Though your flesh has crystallised Still...you turn me on Still...you turn me on, yeah Mmmm...you turn me on Do you wanna be the pillow Where I lay my head Do you wanna be the feathers Lying on my bed Do you wanna be the cover Of a magazine Create a scene Every day a little sadder A little madder Someone get me a ladder Do you wanna be the singer Do you wanna be the song Let me tell you something You just couldn't be more wrong You see I really have to tell you That it all gets so intense From my experience It just doesn't seem to make sense Still...you turn me on Mmmm...you turn me on, yeah Mmmm...you turn me on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxie Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Beastie Boys - The New Style. It's been mentioned on another thread for the Jimmy reference, but I've just discovered this song, and freaking LOVE it. Beastie Boys - The New Style Four and three and two and one What up! And when I'm on the mic - the suckers run (Word!) Down with Adrock and Mike D. and you ain't And I got more juice than Picasso got paint Got rhymes that are rough and rhymes that are slick I'm not surprised you're on my dick B-E-A-S-T-I-E, what up Mike D. Ah yeah, that's me I got franks and pork and beans Always bust the new routines I get it - I got it, I know it's good The rhymes I write - you wish you would I'm never in training - my voice is not straining People always biting and I'm sick of complaining So I went into the locker room during classes Bust into your locker and I smashed your glasses You're from Secausus - I'm from Manhattan You're jealous of me because your girlfriend is cattin' There it is - kick it!!! Father to many - married to none And in case you're unaware I carry a gun Stepped into the party - the place was over packed Saw the kid that dissed my homey and shot him in the back I had to get a beeper 'cause my phone is tapped You better keep your mouth shut 'cause I'm fully strapped I got money in the bank - I can still get high That's why your girlfriend thinks that I'm so fly I've got money and juice - twin sisters in my bed Their father had envy so I shot him in the head If I played guitar I'd be Jimmy Page The girlie's I like are underage Check it! Girls with boyfriends are the kind I like I'll steal your honey like I stole your bike Your father - he's jealous 'cause I'm making that green I've got the girlie's numbers from the places I been There it is - kick it!!! You wanna know why - because I'm October 31st - that is my date of birth I got to the party and I did the Smurf Taxing all females from coast to coast And when I get my fill I'm chilly most We rag-tag girlies back at the hotel And then we all switch places when I ring the bell I chill at White Castle 'cause it's the best But I'm fly at Fat Burger when I way out west K-I-N-G-A-D whammy All the fly ladies are on my jammy Went to the prom - wore the fly blue rental Got six girlies in my Lincoln Continental Met this girl at the party and she started to flirt I told her some rhymes and she pulled up her skirt Spent some bank - I got a high powered jumbo Rolled up a wooly and I watched Colombo Let me clear my throat - Kick it over here baby pop And let all the fly skimmies, feel the beat...mmm drop Coolin' on the corner on a hot summers day Just me, my posse and M.C.A. A lot of beer - a lot of girls - and a lot of cursing Twenty-two automatic on my person Got my hand in my pocket and my finger's on the trigger My posse's gettin' big - and my posse's gettin' bigger Some voices got treble - some voices got bass We got the kind of voices that are in your face Like the bun to the burger - like the burger to the bun Like the cherry to the apple - to the peach to the plum I'm the king of the Ave. - and I'm the king of the block I'm M.C.A. - and I'm the King Adrock I'm Mike D. - I got all the fly juice On the checkin' at the party on the forty deuce Walking down the block with the fresh fly threads Beastie Boys fly the biggest heads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadScreamingGallery Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 God, I love this song... Ditto. Always have. Back on track: I had completely forgotten about this song until I told a friend about this thread. She reminded me that she constantly played it, in honor of Zep, when it was released and that, with apologies to Billy Joel, we changed the lyrics to suit Zep: I've Loved These Days Lyrics (By BILLY JOEL) Now we take our time, so nonchalant, And spend our nights so bon vivant. We dress our days in silken robes, The money comes, the money goes, We know it's all a passing phase. We light our lamps for atmosphere, And hang ourselves on chandeliers. We're going wrong, we're gaining weight, We're sleeping long and far too late. And so it's time to change our ways... But I've loved these days. Now as we indulge in things refined, We hide our hearts from harder times. A string of pearls, a foreign car, Oh, we can only go so far On caviar and Cabernet. We drown our doubts in dry champagne, And soothe our souls with fine cocaine. I don't know why I even care, We get so high and get nowhere. We'll have to change our jaded ways... But I've loved these days. So before we end, and then begin, We'll drink a toast to how it's been- A few more hours to be complete, A few more nights on satin sheets, A few more times that I can say... I've loved these days.

longdistancewinner Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I don't really like the song, but I love the lyrics. Always reminds me of when I was (and, I'm sure, many more girls) hopelessly in love with him I Pretend by Sandy Stewart ft Stevie Nicks Someone's son, someone's man Someone's inspiration, someone's friend I depend on sleep to take me to you once again And if I don't wake up to see You standing here in front of me A dream won't die, a love won't end 'Cause you're forever mine When I pretend The faithful listen to your every word I've followed for years and I've seen and heard Learned and laughed Idle nights with melodies and photographs But if I realize someday You're unaware, so far away A dream won't die and a love won't end 'Cause you're forever mine When I pretend And when you're old with time's demands You can be my teacher, I'll be your hands Play the part Stop for nothing but to have you hold me Precious heart If I accept what cannot be (Don't stop believing) No longer count on destiny A dream won't die, a love won't end 'Cause you're forever mine When I pretend You're forever mine And another Stevie Nicks song, which I ab-so-lute-ly adore Long Distance Winner (yes, my username on here) Sunflowers and your face fascinate me You love only the tallest trees I come running down the hill But you're fast, you're the winner Long distance winner Not unlike the blue-white fire You burn brightly in spite of yourself I bring the water down to you But you're too hot to touch You're too hot to touch You love somebody Save their soul Tie them to your Heaven Erase their Hell Love the lifestyle If you feel it Don't try to change them You never will Sunflowers and your face fascinate me You go into the dusty pink day I come calling unto you But you run, you're the winner Long distance winner Oh, yeah, you're the winner Long distance winner, yeah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aen27 Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 "Jimmy" from the movie Thoroughly Modern Millie, which Julie Andrews sings. I love this. It also comes close how I feel so hopelessly in love with him, and moved by him, sometimes to tears and how he always makes me happy: Jimmy, Oh Jimmy Silly boy Gee what a really swell guy. Jimmy, Oh Jimmy Oh what joy He makes your troubles fly. His glance has fireworks in it. We kiss my does a whez-bang- flip- flop- heaven for a minute. Jimmy, Oh Jimmy Don't you know What I can't quite confess. So coax me, impore me. I promise you won't bore me. Oh Jimmy, I might say yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeptangerine Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Oooo- something fun! You're So Vain from Carly Simon... Why? It's about the man with the "scarf that was apricot," screwing all his best friends' wives... AND Carly Simon once said the person she wrote this about has an "E" in his name. (She never said exactly who she wrote it for. She'll take that secret to her grave.) So there ya go! You walked into the party Like you were walking onto a yacht Your hat strategically dipped below one eye Your scarf it was apricot You had one eye in the mirror As you watched yourself gavotte And all the girls dreamed that they'd be your partner They'd be your partner, and You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain I'll bet you think this song is about you Don't you? Don't you? You had me several years ago When I was still quite naive Well, you said that we made such a pretty pair And that you would never leave But you gave away the things you loved And one of them was me I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee Clouds in my coffee, and You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain I'll bet you think this song is about you Don't you? Don't you? I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee Clouds in my coffee, and You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain I'll bet you think this song is about you Don't you? Don't you? Well, I hear you went up to Saratoga And your horse naturally won Then you flew your Lear jet up to Nova Scotia To see the total eclipse of the sun Well, you're where you should be all the time And when you're not, you're with Some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend Wife of a close friend, and You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain I'll bet you think this song is about you Don't you? Don't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LedZep forever Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Ziggy Stardust by David Bowie Ziggy played guitar, jammin' good with Weird and Gilly, The spiders from Mars, he played it left hand But made it too far Became the special man, then we were Ziggy's band Ziggy really sang, screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo Like some cat from Japan, he could lick 'em by smiling He could leave 'em to hang Came on so loaded man, well hung and snow white tan So where were the spiders while the fly tried th break our balls Just a beer light to guide us So we bitched about his fans and should we crush his sweet hands? Ziggy played for time, jiving us that we was voodoo The kids was just crass. He was the nazz With God given ass He took it all too far, but boy could he play guitar Making love with his ego, Ziggy sucked up into his mind Like a leper messiah When the kids had killed the man I had to break up the band Ziggy Played Guitar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
