The Mighty Musical Observations Thread

[Dr. Medulla]

Scene from a middle-aged home …
The Boss fires up Sheriff’s “When I’m With You” on her own and hits max volume. In distress, I grab my iPad and call up “Bodies” by the Sex Pistols and also put it to max. She quickly retreats, agreeing to hit mute if I do the same. I say a silent prayer in thanks to Rotten/Jones/Cook/Vicious.

Sorry I only understand english.

Google it (if you dare), it's a soppy power ballad from the 80s. It was being used in a commercial, so she decided to torment me by playing the whole thing. The fool forgot that I, too, can use a portable computational device.

This is basically my house, but with Van Hagar and X Ray Spex. If I'm feeling really saucy, I put on Minor Threat.

We will win the end!

Lately, he's been trying to play the (shudder) Top Gun soundtrack.

I have alerted The Hague.

Document everything. This is the kind of evidence vital to a psychiatric hospitalization claim.

I know that from the Monster Ballads comp in the late 90s. One of the weaker songs on the comp. I usually didn't even make it past Wind of Change. So my vote is Bodies>When I'm With You.

I can't imagine anyone here* who might pick otherwise.

I'd at least have a think about it if it was When I'm With You by Sparks.

I would hope that Sparks vs. Sheriff would be a total rout as well.*

I looked that song up on Wikipedia because I couldn't remember much about it and came upon this quote:

Sheriff's keyboardist Arnold Lanni wrote the song after meeting Valeri Brown and falling in love with her. 'I sat down, put my coffee on the piano, tinkled some ivories, and four minutes later 80 percent of the song was written. On Valentine's Day I played the song for Valerie and said, "I don't have anything, this is all I can give you right now. It's yours." Valeri loved the song; two years later she married me.'

I think anyone who uses the phrases "tinkled some ivories" should be banished to musical hell.

Shouldn't it be "tinkled some ivories and ebonies" anyway, or does he only use the white keys for some reason?

Seems a light sentence. Volcanoes exist for dealing with these crimes against humanity.
