GAWD I FEEL SAD

"Suzanne" - Leonard Cohen - cos that's my name

"Why'aye Man" - Mark Knopfler. Exit music to Auf Weidersehn Pet. Cos it's where I belong. "we felt the force of Maggie's hand. Time's were tough in Geordie Land"

"Fairytale of New York" - just cos I love it

"For one brief, beery, gap-toothed moment, back in the bleakness of the second term of Thatcherism...."

Let's raise a bottle to Shane

Darklord adds

Lets also raise a glass to the late great Kirsty

For you, Kirsty!

The island it is silent now
but ghosts still haunt the waves
a torch lights up the famished man that fortune could not save.
did you work upon the railroad, did you rid the streets of crime.
where your dollars from the white house or where thy frpom the five and dime.a fallen genious mr mc gowan

The Darklord climbs onto his Warhorse and rides off
into the mist.

Turns back to salute those he has met tonight.

Farewell

I will return

Did the old songs taunt or cheer you
And did they still make you cry
Did you count the months and years
Or did your teardrops quickly dry


Wonderful stuff

Farewell darklord , hope to meet again in another place.

The first, the last, my everything
And the answer to all my dreams
You're my sun, my moon, my guiding star
My kind of wonderful, that's what you are
I know there's only, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
You're all I'm living for
Your love I'll keep for evermore
You're the first, your the last, my everything

And with you I've found so many things
A love so new only you could bring
Can't you see it's you
You make me feel this way
You're like a fresh morning dew on a brand new day
I see so many ways that I
Can love you till the day I die
You're my reality, yet I'm lost in a-a-a a dream
You're the first, the last, my everything

I know there's only, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
Girl you're my reality
But I'm lost in a-a-a a dream
You're the first, you're the last, my everything


Mr Barry White

In manhattens desert twilight in the death of afternoon.
we walked hand in down Broadway like the first men on the moon
as the blackbird broke the silence,
as it whistled it so sweet.
in Brendan behans footsteps
i marched up and down the street

There's plenty deutschmarks here to earn
And German tarts are wunderschön
German beer is chemical-free
Germany's alreet with me
Sometimes I miss my river Tyne
But you're my pretty fraulein
Tonight we'll drink the old town dry
Keep wor spirit levels high

Lol sue

Don't know that one Sue give us a clue

to the Darklord
glass raised to Kirsty as long as you "don't come the cowboy with me sunny Jim

David - it's Mark Knopffler staying close to his roots.

Here's the opening lines (but you have to laugh at the bit about keepng your spirit level high...)

We had no way of staying afloat
We had to leave on the ferry boat
Economic refugees
On the run to Germany
We had the back of Maggie's hand
Times were tough in Geordieland
We got wor tools and working gear
And humped it all from Newcastle to here
