Dedicate a Song or Poem

[Jacky Tar]

Sometimes we have bad days, weeks, or longer. Mayhaps we celebrate or suffer things alone. I call many here friend, and would like to think I can offer them some solace or support.

So, I humbly offer this thread as a place to post dedications to those who may need it. Despite the bravado, posturing and brave faces shown here, life can be taxing.

I dedicate this first post to everyone here...

"Life is Beautiful" by Vega4

[LadyBarbossa]

:::hugs::: Thank ye.

Aye... life sucks. And, I experience more problems than I do anything else.

But... every time I hear "Dance" by Jo Dee Messina (I think that's who sang it)... I love it, and I say a wee prayer as I sing it, thinking of my Nephew who is having a difficult time right now. My 2 Nieces are, too, but not so much as my Nephew. I ALWAYS hope the best for them.

And, if God allows, that someday I have kids of my own, I will think of this song always, too, and wish and want the best for them.

Dedicated to my Nephew.

And one I want to dedicate to all, also... family, friends, everyone I knew and know and will come to know...

"Live Like You Were Dying" by Tim Mcgraw

[Cheeky Actress]

March has never been a positive, power-provoking month for me.

Sadly, it seems that “bad karma” has oozed its’ way forth through every emotional, psychological, financial and physical fiber of my being and glommed on to those important to me. Between the losses of close friends and family, the upsets in our personal lives and the anxiety of it all, I pray that everything will be much better this month.

Prayers to those who need the love and support of a higher power and hugs to those who think that they be alone in their time of need.

Remember, you are never alone.

[Red Cat Jenny]

[Ransom]

Okay, since a little humor always helps, here's my dedication - to all those on the Pub needing a chuckle.

From the movie Muppet Treasure Island

"When You're a Professional Pirate...Your're... Al...ways... in...the...Best...of...Com...pan...y! **Last bit sung with a Tim Curry flourish!**

Cheers all.

[Red Cat Jenny]

"Keep Holding On" by Avril Lavigne

[LadyBarbossa]

Hugs t' Lady B, Cheeky Actress an Red CAt.

Lady B, Jo Dee has another song, "My Give a Damn's Busted", which may be yer response t' those who done ye wrong.

Thanks, Jacky. :::hugs back:::

My give-a-damn may be busted later... but right now... I haven't a give-a-damn. And luckily, it didn't end up to be "Before He Cheats" by Carrie Underwood. I know a classmate who is on his way towards that right now. Would hate to see that happen to him... and her as both are good people. God help us.

Trying not to listen to the radio too much. Cause too much of it I can relate to and I'm at too much of a fragile state to even hold up to one of those songs and listen to it.

Aye, Cheeky... :::hugs to Cheeky::: prayers that this month is better. At least the hope is there.

Maybe when AWE and Port Washington comes out... we'll cheer up a bit more then.

~Lady B

Lady B, when every other song is a love song, and I feel like ye do, I switch over t' a modern jazz station; nice music sans lyrics.

Ahhhh Jacky Tar a pirate with a heart of gold. Truly the richest one here!

I think these next few months are the toughest for alot of people. I myself have had the "Loss Of Friends." The one thing have seen, and find rather amusing is people don't like it when you say no.

Then when you tell them, you want to move on and see what else there is the once clear, cool and refreashing spring called; "Friendship" dries up! So with this in mind I dedicate:

A Rose Is A Rose By: Susan Ashton

A dedication t' PyratePhil, Caraccioli and Blackjohn (don't worry guys it's not a song, it's a joke!)

"A Buddist walks up to a hot dog vendor and says, 'Make me one with everything!'"

~~ By Robin Williams

[Matusalem]

"oh,I see" said the blind man...as he picked up his hammer and saw.

[Hester]

I know a carpenter in his 80s who would love that joke, Mats!

Indeed, I think I shall dedicate this song to him (it's one of his favourites, 'cause he was in the Navy, and has a tattoo of the Cutty Sark on his forearm to prove it):

"Barnacle Bill the Sailor"

[Surfer Joe]

I'd like to dedicate this song to Hester and Red Cat Jenny:

"Mermaids" by Paul Weller:

[Red Cat Jenny]

AWw! Thanks Surfer Joe!

Heres one for you and Dex and Brad!

Nick Lowe - I knew the bride when she used to rock and rolll

[Hester]

For C. (who must be middle-aged now)

Joe Jackson's "I'm the Man"

What a bass-line!

[Hester]

For Mad Dog Davy:

Images in Vogue, "You Can Call it Love if You Want to"

Goddess grace, does that ever look dated now!

And I'm sorry I looked so horrified when you told me the name of the song.

[Hester]

And for "William (I won't) Tell":

Squeeze, "Pulling Mussels"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaEcUMrsBhU

"Maid Marian on her tiptoe feet..." (Oh yeah... that was always me.)

[Hester]

And for Tarzan in a leather jacket, who rescued me from the bikers playing pool in the back room:

The Beat, "Save it for Later"

[Merrydeath]

at this point, I'm torn between

Faith of the Heart and Before He Cheats.

Hey, I'm a pisces with pirate rising.
