The other day, I posted something in another thread where I asked members what was the first word that popped into their head when they saw/heard the word "cheap"?
My first response was from
Whoknows and his reply was "perfume". That phrase, cheap perfume, made me instantly think of Journey's DON'T STOP BELIEVING. The post went in a different direction from what I planned but it was so much fun! Example, there were other responses to the word "cheap" that included shoddy, floozy and several more and
huxley999 was able to cite songs with those words in them!
Let's pick a RANDOM word and see if a song comes to mind. My guess is not every word will trigger a song to pop into our heads, but who knows. If you would kindly post a few lines of the song that reflects "the word", the name of the song and the artist and if you like, a YouTube link to the song. PLEASE ATTACH YOUR SONG TO THE PARTICULAR "WORD OF THE DAY".
Let's have some musical fun!

What's that man holding in his hand?
He looks a lot like a guy, I knew way back when
It's silly Willy with Philly Band
Could be, ooh-ee
What's that man movin' 'cross the stage?
It looks a lot like the one used by Jimmy Page
It's like a Relic from A different age
Could be, ooh-ee
If there's rock SHOW at the Concertgebow
They're got long hair at the Madison Square
You've got Rock And Roll at the Hollywood Bowl
We'll be there, ooh yeah
The lights go down, they're back in town okay
Behind the stacks, you glimpse an Axe
The tension mounts you score an ounce ole!
Temperatures rise as you see the white of their eyes
If there's rock show at the Concertgebow
You're got long hair at the Madison Square
They've got Rock And Roll at the Hollywood Bowl
We'll be there, ooh yeah
In my green metal suit, I'm preparing to shoot up the city
And the ring at the end of my noses makes me look rather pretty
It's a pity there's nobody here to witness the end
Save for my dear old friend and confidante, Mademoiselle Kitty
What's that man movin' to and fro?
That decibel meter doesn't seem to be reading low
But they was louder at the rainbow
Could be, ooh-ee
If there's rock show at the Concertgebow
You're got long hair at the Madison Square
They've got Rock And Roll at the Hollywood Bowl
We'll be there, ooh yeah
If there's rock show

It goes on all day long
Everyone knows everything
And no one's ever wrong
Until later
Who can you believe?
It's hard to play it safe
But apart from a few good friends
We don't take anything on faith
Until later

SHOW me the prison, show me the jail
Show me the prisoner who's life has gone stale
And I'll show you a young man with so many reasons why
There but for fortune, go you or I
Show me the alley, show me the train
Show me the hobo who sleeps out in the rain
And I'll show you a young man with so many reasons why
There but for fortune, go you or I
Show me the whisky stains on the floor
Show me the drunkard as he stumbles out the door
And I'll show you a young man with so many reasons why
There but for fortune, go you or I
Show me the country where bombs had to fall
Show me the ruins of buildings once so tall
And I'll show you a young man with so many reasons why
There but for fortune, go you and I, go you and I.

Every day my imagination anticipates
Ways I can show you how much I love you
Candy, flowers, priceless pearls
Romantic trips around the world, baby, just think
You and me floating on the Caribbean sea
So exotic, I just can just feel heat
And there's candlelight with the moon so high
Hangin' in a Spanish sky but before right or wrong, hoo, girl
You've got to let me know
Just how far to let this go
(Ooh)
Help me
(Darling, please show me)
Show me
(How to love you)
You've got to take my hand
Show me that you'll understand
Help me
(Hoo, baby)
Show me
And if time won't allow for such an affair, darling, I don't care
We don't have to go anywhere
We'll stay at home, turn the lights down low, play our favorite video
Or better still make our own private show
And we'll love so deeply, I feel your arms completely
With love that only we can share
I'll taste your sweet lips, caress your fingertips
But before I go on, hoo, ooh, ooh
You've got to let me know
(You know, baby)
Just how far to let this go
(I wanna love you, baby)
Help me
(Hey)
Show me
(How I could love you more each day)
You've got to take my hand
Show me that you'll understand
(Don't want our love to slip away)
Help me, show me
Baby, please, please let me know
How to be everything for you
Just show me what to do, oh, baby
I?ll make sweet love to you all night long
I'm holding on to the words of this love song, baby
Hoo
Mmm, mmm, mmm

For one sweet touch
Diamonds in the rain
Will always be the same

I'll find a little queen and I know I can treat her right
What's your name, little girl?
What's your name?
Shootin' you straight, little girl
Won't you do the same?
Back at the hotel, Lord we got such a mess
It seems that one of the crew had a go with one of the guests, oh yes
Well, the police said we can't drink in the bar, what a shame
Won't you come upstairs girl, and have a drink of champagne?
What's your name, little girl?
What's your name?
Shootin' you straight, little girl
For there ain't no shame
What's your name, little girl?

What's your name?
Shootin' you straight, little girl

When I come back here next year, I wanna see you again
What was your name, little girl?
What's your name?
Shootin' you straight, little girl
Well there ain't no shame

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom
LET it be
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be
Let is be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be
And when the brokenhearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer
Let it be
For though they may be parted
There is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer
Let it be
Let is be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Yeah, there will be an answer
Let it be
Let is be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be
Let is be, let it be
Let it be, yeah, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be
And when the night is cloudy
There is still a light that shines on me
Shine on 'til tomorrow
Let it be
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be, yeah
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, yeah, let it be
Oh, there will be an answer
Let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, yeah, let it be

Don't LET the sun catch you cryin'
The night's the time for all your tears
Your heart may be broken tonight
But tomorrow in the morning light
Don't let the sun catch you cryin'
The night-time shadows disappear
And with them go all your tears
For the morning will bring joy
For every girl and boy
So don't let the sun catch you cryin'
We know that cryin's not a bad thing
But stop your cryin' when the birds sing
It may be hard to discover
That you've been left for another
But don't forget that love's a game
And it can always come again
Oh don't let the sun catch you cryin'
Don't let the sun catch you cryin', oh no
Oh, oh, oh
The snow glows white on the mountain tonight
Not a footprint to be seen
A kingdom of isolation
And it looks like I'm the queen
The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside
Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I've tried
Don't LET them in, don't LET them see
Be the good girl you always have to be
Conceal, don't feel, don't LET them know
Well, now they know
Let it go, LET it go
Can't hold it back anymore
Let it go, LET it go
Turn away and slam the door
I don't care what they're going to say
LET the storm rage on
The cold never bothered me anyway
It's funny how some distance makes everything seem small
And the fears that once controlled me can't get to me at all
It's time to see what I can do
To test the limits and break through
No right, no wrong, no rules for me
I'm free
LET it go, LET it go
I am one with the wind and sky
LET it go, let it go
You'll never see me cry
Here I stand and here I stay
Let the storm rage on
My power flurries through the air into the ground
My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around
And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast
I'm never going back, the past is in the past
LET it go, LET it go
When I'll rise like the break of dawn
LET it go, LET it go
That perfect girl is gone
Here I stand in the light of day
LET the storm rage on
The cold never bothered me anyway

There goes my old girlfriend
There's another diamond ring
And all those late night promises
I guess they don't mean a thing
So baby, what's the story?
Did you find another man?
Is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made?
When you don't look back
I guess the feelings start to fade away
I used to feel your fire
But now it's cold inside
And you're back on the street
Like you didn't miss a beat, yeah!
Tell me what it takes to LET you go
Tell me how the pain's supposed to go
Tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night
Without thinking you lost everything that was
Good in your life to the toss of the dice?
Tell me what it takes to LET you go
Girl, before I met you
I was F-I-N-E, fine
But your love made me a prisoner
Yeah my heart's been doing time
You spent me up like money
Then you hung me out to dry
It was easy to keep
All your lies in disguise
'Cause you had me in deep
With the devil in your eyes
Tell me what it takes to LET you go
Tell me how the pain's supposed to go
Tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night
Without thinking you lost everything that was
Good in your life to the toss of the dice?
Tell me what it takes to LET you go
Guitar!
Tell me that you're happy that you're on your own
Tell me that it's better when you're all alone
Tell me that your body doesn't miss my touch
Tell me that my lovin' didn't mean that much
Tell me you ain't dyin' when you're cryin' for me
Tell me what it takes to LET you go
Tell me how the pain's supposed to go
Tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night
Without thinking you lost everything that was
Good in your life to the toss of the dice?
Tell me who's to blame for thinkin' twice
No no no no no
'Cause I don't wanna burn in paradise
LET go, LET go, LET go
I don't wanna burn in paradise
LET it go, LET it go, LET it go
LET it go, LET it go, LET it go
LET it go, LET it go, LET it go
LET it go, LET it go, LET it go (I don't wanna burn)

She'd come home, 6 am
Tells me she'd been out with friends
And I let her lie
I let her lie
And in the glare of the morning sun
She swore I was her only one
And I let her lie
I let her lie
Cause the truth was too hard to handle and I couldn't bare to lose that girl
We were that small town scandal but,
She was my only world
one teary night she confessed her sins
But she vowed to never cheat again
And I let her lie
I let her lie
Though she tried lord, she could not change
And I only have myself to blame
Cause I let her lie
I let her lie
Cause the truth was too hard to handle and I couldn't bare to lose that girl
We were that small town scandal but,
She was my only world
The day I left no words were said
She was sound asleep on our double bed
And I let her lie
I let her lie
I let her lie
I let her lie

The warden threw a party in the county jail
The prison band was there, and they began to wail
The band was jumpin', and the joint began to swing
You should've heard them knocked out jailbirds sing
LET’S rock
Everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock

Little Joe was blowin' on the slide trombone
The drummer boy from Illinois went crash, boom, bang
The whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang
Let's rock

"I sure would be delighted with your company"
"Come on and do the Jailhouse Rock with me"
Let's rock
Everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Sad Sack was sittin' on a block of stone
Way over in the corner weepin' all alone
The warden said, "Hey, buddy, don't you be no square
"If you can't find a partner use a wooden chair"
Let's rock
Everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Shifty Henry said to Bugs
"For Heaven's sake"
"No one's lookin', now's our chance to make a break"

We all learn to wash at the scrubbers club
Where we ring out the dirt with rub a dub dub

Let it bleed let it heal let me sleep it's no good, so...

But if this ever changin' world
In which we're livin'
Makes you give in and cry
Say live and LET die

I laboured over these words too long
They're nothing to behold
I wanted it to be special for you
But it's just a song
I wanted it to lay close to your heart and say
"Darling, I was wrong"
I wanted it to say something so special and true
I wanted it to cut deeper and darker for you
I wanted it to show wisdom where honesty's due
Open up and bleed
I laboured over this life too long
There's nothing to behold
I wanted it to be better for you
A minute down the road
I wanted it to go straight to your heart and say
"Darling, I was wrong"
I wanted it to say something so special and true
I wanted it to cut deeper and darker for you
I wanted it to show reason where honesty's due
Open up and bleed
Open up and bleed
Lay it down, lay it down
Lay it down and let it bleed
Lay it down, lay it down
Lay it down and let it bleed
Lay it down, lay it down
Lay it down and let it bleed
Lay it down, lay it down
Lay it down and let it bleed
Come on, come on, come on and
Lay it down, lay it down
Lay it down and let it bleed
Come on, come on, come on and
Lay it down, lay it down
Lay it down and let it bleed
Come on, come on, come on and
Lay it down, lay it down
Lay it down and let it bleed
Come on, come on, come on and
Lay it down, lay it down
Lay it down and let it bleed

Another one recorded by many artists but my favourite is Ella Fitzgerald's rendition

My story is much too sad to be told
But practically everything leaves me totally cold
The only exception I know is the case
When I'm out on a quiet spree
Fighting vainly the old ennui
And I suddenly turn and see your fabulous face
I get no kick from champagne
Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all
So tell me why should it be true
That I get a kick out of you
Some they may go for a cocaine
I'm sure that if I took even one sniff
It would bore me terrifically too
Yet I get a kick out of you
I get a kick every time I see you
Standing there before me
I get a kick though it's clear to see
You obviously do not adore me
I get no kick in a plane
Flying too high
With some gal in the sky
Is my idea of nothing to do
Yet I get a kick
You give me a boot
I get a kick out of you

I make my living off the evening news
Just give me something
Something I can use
People love it when you lose
They love dirty laundry
Well, I coulda been an actor

Bleached blonde
Comes on at five
She can tell you 'bout the plane crash
With a gleam in her eye
It's interesting when people die
Give us dirty laundry
Can we film the operation
Is the head dead yet
You know the boys in the newsroom
Got a running bet
Get the widow on the set
We need dirty laundry
You don't really need to find out
What's going on
You don't really want to know
Just how far it's gone
Just leave well enough alone
Eat your dirty laundry

Let me up on the stand
And let me KICK out the jam

Put that mic in my hand
And let me KICK out the jam

How lucky can one guy be?
I kissed her and she kissed me
Like the fella once said
"Ain't that a KICK in the head?"
The room was completely black
I hugged her and she hugged back
Like the sailor said, quote
"Ain't that a hole in a boat?"
My head keeps spinnin'
I go to sleep and keep grinnin'
If this is just the beginnin'
My life is gonna be beautiful

Tell me quick, ain't love a kick in the head?

Tell me quick, oh, ain't love a kick?
Tell me quick, ain't love a kick in the head?
Robert's got a quick hand
He'll look around the room, but won't tell you his plan
He's got a rolled cigarette
Hanging out his mouth, he's a cowboy kid, yeah
He found a six-shooter gun
In his dad's closet, and with a box of fun things
I don't even know what
But he's coming for you, yeah, he's coming for you
All the other kids with the pumped up KICKS

Daddy works a long day
He'd be coming home late, yeah, he's coming home late
And he's bringing me a surprise
'Cause dinner's in the kitchen, and it's packed in ice
I've waited for a long time
Yeah, the sleight of my hand is now a quick pull trigger
I reason with my cigarette
Then say, "your hair's on fire, you must have lost your wits, yeah"
All the other kids with the pumped up KICKS
You better run, better run

The distant echo of far away voices boarding far away trains
To take them home to the ones that they love and who love them forever
The glazed, dirty steps, repeat my own and reflect my thoughts
Cold and uninviting, partially naked, except for toffee wrappers
And this morning's papers, Mr. Jones got run down
Headlines of death and sorrow, they tell of tomorrow
Madmen on the rampage, and I'm down in the tube station at midnight
I fumble for change, and pull out the Queen, smiling, beguiling
I put in the money and pull out a plum, behind me
Whispers in the shadows, gruff blazing voices, hating, waiting
Hey boy, they shout, have you got any money?
But I say, I've a little money and a take away curry
I'm on the way home to my wife, she'll be lining up the cutlery
And now she's expecting me
Polishing the glasses and pulling out the cork
And I'm down in the tube station at midnight
I first felt a fist, and then a kick, I could now smell their breath
They smelt of pubs and Wormwood Scrubs
And too many right wing meetings, my life swam around me
It took a look and drowned me in its own existence
The smell of brown leather, it blended in with the weather
It filled my eyes, ears, nose and mouth
It blocked all my senses, couldn't see, hear, speak any longer
I'm down in the tube station at midnight
I said, "I was down in the tube station at midnight" Hey
The last thing that I saw as I lay there on the floor
Was 'Jesus Saves' painted by an atheist nutter
And a British Rail poster read
'Have an away day, a cheap holiday, do it today'
I glanced back on my life and thought about my wife
'Cause they took the keys, and she'll think it's me
I'm down in the tube station at midnight
The wine will be flat and the curry's gone cold
I'm down in the tube station at midnight
Don't want to go down in a tube station at midnight
Don't want to go down in a tube station at midnight
Don't want to go down in a tube station at midnight
Don't want to go down in a tube station at midnight
Kick to kill, kick to kill, kick to kill, kick to kill ya!
Kick to kill, kick to kill, kick to kill, kick to kill ya!
I see myself in you
I see myself in something
Something you do, something bold
Something new that I can hold
And it's taking over
Nothing to do, when everything is silent
Except mindless violence!
Mindless violence!
The calm is fake
Pretend you can sense the tension rising
Hard on heat, harder than your rigid digits could ever score
And it's taking over
Nothing to do, when everything is silent
Except mindless violence!
Nothing to do and nothing to feel
Nothing to do and nothing to feel
And it kills me!
Kills me stone dead
Kick to kill, kick to kill ya!
Kick to kill, kick to kill ya!
You like to play real hard,
We speak the same strong language
Straight from the hip
Straight to the jaw
Hitting the canvas, the floor is the law
And it's taking over
Nothing to do, when everything is silent
Except mindless violence!
Nothing to do and nothing to feel
Nothing to do and nothing to feel
Nothing to do and nothing to feel
Nothing to do and nothing to feel
And it kills me!
When I see you still there
Kick to kill, kick to kill ya!
Kick to kill, kick to kill ya!
Kick to kill, kick to kill, kick to kill, kick to kill ya!
Kick to kill, kick to kill, kick to kill, kick to kill ya!
I don't want to lose you

Knock, Knock who's there - Mary Hopkin
Tears of rain
Run down my window pane
I'm on my own again
Good evening, sorrow
Sit and dream
Of how things might have been
And as I close my eyes
I get the strangest feeling
KNOCK, knock - "Who's there?"
Could this be love that's calling?
The door is always open wide
Knock, knock - "Who's there?"
Now as the night is falling
Take off your coat and come inside
Climb the stair
And then I say a prayer
For someone who could share
My situation
But instead
As I lay down my head
I have to leave it all
To my imagination
Knock, knock - "Who's there?"
Could this be love that's calling?
The door is always open wide
Knock, knock - "Who's there?"
Now as the night is falling
Take off your coat and come inside
Lalala...
Sit and dream

Yay! This JUST played on Sirius Radio!
Never too soon to be through
Being cool too much too soon
Too much for me, too much for you
You're gonna lose in time
Don't be afraid to show your friends
That you hurt inside, inside
Pain's part of life don't hide behind your false pride
It's a lie, your lie
If you see me getting mighty
If you see me getting high
Knock me down
I'm not bigger than life
If you see me getting mighty
If you see me getting high
Knock me down
I'm not bigger than life
I'm tired of being untouchable
I'm not above the love
I'm part of you and you're part of me
Why did you go away?
Finding what you're looking for
Can end up being, being such a bore
I pray for you most everyday
My love's with you, now fly away
If you see me getting mighty
If you see me getting high
Knock me down
I'm not bigger than life

It's so lonely when you don't even know yourself

Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colors on the snowy, linen land
Now, I understand what you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
Now, I understand, what you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left inside
On that starry, starry night
You took your life as lovers often do
But I could have told you, Vincent
This world was never meant for one
As beautiful as you
Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
The silver thorn of bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the VIRGIN snow
Now, I think I know what you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will

Expectations left to come up to yeah

Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
Then I recall my fall from grace
Another time, another place

She had all the brains and the beauty
The picture does not fit
You talked to me when you felt like it
Just the way that her hair fell down around her face

Another time, another place
Yes and your rich old man
You know he'd call her a dead ringer
You got the same command
Plus you mother was a jazz singer

You're the one I had decided who's one of my kind

Leave your troubles outside
So life is disappointing, forget it!
In here life is beautiful
The girls are beautiful
Even the orchestra is beautiful
And now presenting the cabaret girls!
Each and everyone a VIRGIN
You don't believe me
Well, do not take my word for it
Go ahead, ask her!
Ha ha ha ha
Outside it is winter, but in here it is so hot!
Every night we have the battle to keep the girls from taking off
All their clothing, so don't go away, who knows, tonight we may
Lose the battle!

Au cabaret

We skipped a light fandango
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick

As the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
The waiter brought a tray
And so it was that later

That her face, at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale
She said, "There is no reason
And the truth is plain to see"
But I wandered through my playing cards
And would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open
They might just as well have been closed
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
