Ser Snowflake Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Oasis's "Wonderwall" reminds me of Sam and Gilly, "...and all the roads that lead the way are winding, and all the lights that light the way are blinding, there are many things that I would like to say to you, but I don't know how, Because maybe, youre gonna be the one who saves me, And after all, youre my wonderwall..."

The Fattest Leech Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 This one for Jon, because of course while researching something else totally unrelated, I came across this... A Johnny Jump Up is a kind of flower, a hybrid of a few species, and part of the pansy family. And we have this: A Game of Thrones - Jon VII Jon saw at once what Sam meant. He could see the torn veins in the dead man's wrist, iron worms in the pale flesh. His blood was a black dust. Yet Jaremy Rykker was unconvinced. "If they'd been dead much longer than a day, they'd be ripe by now, boy. They don't even smell." Dywen, the gnarled old forester who liked to boast that he could smell snow coming on, sidled closer to the corpses and took a whiff. "Well, they're no pansy flowers, but … m'lord has the truth of it. There's no corpse stink." Which brings us to the song Johnny Jump Up, a traditional Celtic style song with a part about a guy everyone thinks is dead, but then comes back to "life". He was just drunk on cider. This is truly one of my most favorite songs in real life, and I am shocked I never thought of this sooner. It is THE best song to sing and dance to when enjoying a pint or a few fingers. I'll tell you a story that happened to me One day as I went down to Youghal by the Sea The sun it was bright and the day it was warm Says I, "A quiet pint wouldn't do me no harm" I went to the barman, I says, "Give me a stout" the barman, "I'm sorry all the beer tis sold out Try whiskey or vodka, ten years in the wood" Says I, "I'll try cider, I heard that it's good" Oh never, oh never, oh never again I live to a hundred or a hundred and ten I fell to the ground and I couldn't get up After drinking a pint of the Johnny Jump Up After lowering the third I headed straight for the yard Where I bumped into Brophy the big civic guard "Come here to me boy you know we're the law" Well I upped with my fist and I shattered his jaw He fell to the ground with his knees crumpled up For t'wasnt I hit him t'was the johnny jumpAnd the next thing I met down in Youghal by the Sea Was a cripple on crutches, and says he to me "I'm afraid o' me life I'll be hit by a car Would you help me across to the Railwayman's Bar" And after three pints of that cider so sweet He threw down his crutches and he danced on his feet Oh never, oh never, oh never again I live to a hundred or a hundred and ten Cause I fell to the ground and I couldn't get up After drinking a pint of the Johnny Jump Up Now I went up the Lee Road a friend for to seeThey call it the Madhouse in Cork by the Lee But when I got up there, the truth I do to tell They had the poor bugger locked up in his cell Says the guard testing him, "Say these words if you can 'Around the rugged rocks the ragged rascal ran'" "Tell them I'm not crazy, tell them I'm not mad T'was only six pints of that cider I had" Now a man died in the Union by the name of McNabbThey washed him and placed him outside on a slab And after the coroner his measurements did take His wife took him home to a bloody fine wake 'Twas about twelve o'clock and the beer it was highThe corpse he sat up and he says with a sigh I can't get to heaven, they won't let me up 'Til I bring them a pint of the Johnny Jump Up Oh never, oh never, oh never again If I live to a hundred or a hundred and ten 'Cause I fell to the ground and I couldn't get up After drinking a pint of the Johnny Jump Up Listen here.

Wizz-The-Smith Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Over on the Riverlands Web we had running joke about our favourite horse, 'Stranger' being locked up on the Quiet Isle. It always reminded me of Iron Maiden's 'Stranger in a Strange Land', some of the lyrics are quite apt.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
