Re: [OT] Music Association - Part 6

Island Lady
Pearls Before Swine

Islands in the Stream - Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton
--
Yo te digo, el mundo esta jodido

Islands - King Crimson

This was the title track from their 4th album (1971), and marked the end of the second era of the band. Their next studio album, 1973's "Larks' Tongues in Aspic" featured only Robert Fripp from the original band (a fact that remains to this day) and had a much different and harder-edged sound.

Planets - Adema

First off, happy new year!

There's very few songs out recently I can get into, but this one caught my ear. It came out in '05 and is pretty melodic, and the video has the feel of being from a movie soundtrack.

That's Amore
Dean Martin

"When the moon hits your eye like a big Pizza pie, that's amore"

To be honest, if somebody hits me in the eye w/ a Pizza right out of a 1,000 degree oven, I wouldn't exactly call that love... but that's just me.. LOL

Scenes From An Italian Restaurant - Billy Joel

Angelina
Louis Prima

"I eat antipasta twice
Just because she is so nice, Angelina
Angelina, the waitress at the pizzeria

I give up soup and minestrone
Just to be with her alone, Angelina
Angelina, the waitress at the pizzeria

Ti vol-glio be-ne
Angelina I adore you
E vol-glio be-ne
Angelina I live for you

E un pas-sio-ne
You have set my heart on fire
But Angelina
Never listens to my song

I eat antipasta twice
Just because she is so nice, Angelina
Angelina, waitress at the pizzeria

If she'll be a my My Car-ra mi-a
Then I'll join in matrimony
With a girl who serves spumoni
And Angelina will be mine!"

The Worst Pies In London - Angela Lansbury (Sweeney Todd stage soundtrack - Sondheim words & music)

MRS. LOVETT:
(spoken) A customer!

Wait!
What's your rush? What's your hurry?
You gave me such a --
Fright, I thought you was a ghost!
Half a minute, can'tcher sit!
Sit you down, sit!
All I meant is that I haven't seen a customer for weeks!
Did you come here for a pie, sir?
Do forgive me if me head's a little vague --
Ugh! What is that?
But you think we had the plague!
From the way that people
Keep avoiding --
No you don't!
Heaven knows I try, sir!
Ick!
But there's no one comes in even to inhale!
Right you are, sir, would you like a drop of ale?
Mind you, I can't hardly blame them!
These are probably the worst pies in London!
I know why nobody cares to take them,
I should know,
I make them,
But good? No!
The worst pies in London,
Even that's polite!
The worst pies in London,
If you doubt it, take a bite!
Is that just disgusting?
You have to concede it!
It's nothing but crusting!
Here, drink this, you'll need it!
The worst pies in London...
And no wonder with the price of meat
What it is
When you get it
Never
Thought I'd live to see the day
Men'd think it was a treat
Findin' poor
Animals
Wot are dyin' in the street!
Mrs. Mooney has a pie shop!
Does a business but I notice something weird.
Lately all her neighbors' cats have disappeared!
Have to hand it to her --
Wot I calls
Enterprise
Poppin' pussies into pies!
Wouldn't do in my shop!
Just the thought of it's enough to make you sick!
And I'm tellin' you, them pussycats is quick!
No denying times is hard, sir
Even harder than the worst pies in London!
Only lard and nothing more --
Is that just revolting,
All greasy and gritty?
It looks like it's molting,
And tastes like,
Well, pity
A woman alone,
With limited wind,
And the worst pies in London!
Ah, sir, times is hard,
Times is hard!

Werewolves Of London - Warren Zevon

I used to know a BIG Warren Zevon fan who told me this song is about Warren's ex-wife's divorce attorney. I don't know if that's true, but listening to the words I can't entirely dispute it.
