Soundtrack Night - Your Chance To Sing-Along-A-Dumpling

[HappyToHaveASingSong]

Dearly Be-Chucked, we are gathered here this evening because, despite our Dumpling status, our fabulosity holds no bounds and we like to have fun

This evening we will sing songs that make us Happy.

New or old, motown or hip hop, Lady Gaga or Bob Marley, we will sing them all.

Dumplings, lurkers and guests welcome - let's say 8 for 8.30

Anyone arriving earlier, please feel free to introduce yourselves and get yourselves in the mood....

H has my DS, I'm waiting for my nails to dry.

This is my current theme tune - Save up all your tears by Cher.

We need dumpling karaoke

OK will listen .... just warming myself up with the Pet Shop Boys

The Daily Mail provides us with free CD's at least!

This is no doubt going to sound very predictable and boring but I just have to sing and dance along to Dancing Queen whenever I hear it

Sounds pretty normal to me...

I could definitely do with some feel-good ABBA!

Oh dear....I just posted "stay with me till dawn " on facebook...cos the lyrics are as twisted as my marriage....BUT the album it's from is " I am the phoenix"!!!!

Going for a bit of Psycho Killer Talking Heads myself and wine glass number 2

The Mama Mia DVD may go on later!

Mmmm "I am the phoenix" nice thinking

Could be just me but does anyone else listen to tracks that sound "happy" when actually if you listen to the words they don't really suit your current situation ?

"Don't know why I love you like I do" - yeah right!!!

I think I will just enjoy them anyway and ignore the words!!

Happy - if you can block out the words and it still makes you feel good, go for it

I had a bit of a hiccup today when the song H and I played at our wedding came on my playlist (Shania Twain, from this moment). That sucked so I changed it

Going to unashamedly hijack this thread.

I earn my living as a singer.

I have always used going to work as a kind of therapy...when things have been bad. It is so good to express all that stuff in a way that someone else has said SO nuch better than I could...and in front of so many people...and then get given money!!!!!

My h took that away from me. Fucking bastard.

So....

"the greatest love of all" louder the better!

I could drink a case of you" Joni Mitchell

"The river" jomi Mitchell

"Stuck in a loved up spaghetti head mess" BY ME!!!!!!

Wow Saddest!! A singer, that's just what we need - respect

If you could post a link to one of your songs we'd be even happier.

I love Joni Mitchell

Consoling myself with....

Let's Dance lyrics

Let's dance put on your red shoes and dance the blues

Let's dance to the song
they're playin' on the radio

And the singer is? ?

Misty.

My funny Valentine. Especailyy by Chaka Kahn

Round Midnight...especially New York Voices version.

Cry me A River,,,but NOT buble's weird version.

Lauren Hill's whole miseducation album

Same with Jill Scott.

I need youtube links or something!

Let's dance...David Bowie!

Under Pressure with Queen! The lyrics are stunning!

Saddest ,He'll never take it away from you honey you have a gift belt it out darling and give us some soul numbers back soon kids still up sixth sense or something cos theyre running round shaking maracas and dancing while im typing x

Bowie indeed Saddest!

But then any Queen is seriously good!

Chairmum - will google find them?

I'm having a problem because my laptop won't let me play any music (going to try to find another laptop)..... DS looking annoyed that I might slow down his internet connection if I play music!!!

Shit...all those girl singers....I forgot I hate all girl singers!!!!! Didn't know that before he told me.

I'm Outta love...Anastacia.

Cry me out...Pixie Lott.

I don't know how to link stuff but I see it is on the right.......

Hi Maybees - glad you could make it - I thought you were out in the field....

Yep - follow the stuff on the right Saddest - it does work, preview to test it and should be fine!

If this is for cheering yourself up when you've been dumped, here's a good one.

She'll be coming round the mountain when she comes - singing Aye aye yippy yippy aye,
tambourines and marraccas now !

Bedtime routine not really happening -back soon !

me

Stuck in a loved up spaghetti head mess was a contributary factor in my h leaving....he refused to record the vocals....so I went somewhere else.

He called that abuse...I said...fuck off.

Quality SGB nothing like an X getting a kicking to put you in the mood

Time is tight Booker T and the Mgs
(Im just posting what im dancing to by the way)

SGB - nice. I smile when my H looks rougher than me even though I'm pregnant, or when DS wakes him up early.

How about a bit of Sweet Transvestite ?
