and

octobersnow!

I've been busy over the last week and haven't been checking LJ, so if anyone's posted something I should know about I'll get back to you, sorry about that!

Lyrics: While I'm here, the last one was Dreaming by Blondie from 1979. Pity no-one knew it, great song. :) It's not Bill Weasley's specified birthday for a month or two, but here's one he might appreciate:

All the old paintings on the tombs
They do the sand dance don't you know
If they move too quick (oh whey oh)
They're falling down like a domino (1980s)

Walk Like An Egyptian, the Bangles.

also on Bill's I-pod:

Egyptian Reggae - Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers

Night Boat to Cairo - Madness

[snorkackcatcher]

Heh. That's an idea. He could add:

Pyramid Song - Radiohead
anything by The Blue Nile

*hearts this song to pieces and begins to boogie*

You should take a listen to the filk that snapecast recently aired to this beloved Bangles best-of: "Walk Like You're a Slytherin". It's at the very end of Episode 6.

Unfortunately, 50Mb podcast files aren't dialup-friendly. :(

Here's a link to just the song: 'Walk Like You're A Slytherin'

I hope this works on dial-up. ;)

Oh, I love that song a lot...just listened to a German version of it yesterday together with my cousin Sarah...which is not as good as the English one, but ok.
Yay, I knew a song again.

Also, you remind me...I also have to congratulate Jesspallas *g*...

[snorkackcatcher]

Heh, I didn't know there was a German version. :)

Oh, yeah, there is. It's by the band "Die Ärzte". But it's rather strangely translated and lost some rhymes and/or sense somehow.

Eeee! Walk Like an Egyptian (Bangles)!

I have such silly memories of that song...

[snorkackcatcher]

It's the sort of song you feel you should probably think is rubbish, but is just too catchy not to like. :)
