Rarely get nighmares, but used to have a recurring one as a child.
The walls of the bedroom would start to close in while the ceiling started to descend. I'd try to hold them, back but they would just keep closing in. Just as I was about to be crushed I would wake with a sudden fright.
Wonder should I go see someone about it....

Zoctor: Vell, Peter, zop ze vanking, Yung boy, zat vud elp.......
The good news is that almost all of the songs for the CS 2008 Music Compilation have now been sourced. The not so good news is that the average song length is nearly six minutes, so the playlist is looking like:
1 Bluebelle Careless whisper George Michael 2 Ciaran California Eagles 3 Crystal Have I told you lately Van Morrison 4 Ecoprincess Babylon system Bob Marley 5 Elise Wonder Natalie Merchant 6 Godsgift Caledonia Frankie Miller 7 Hasagoodheart All night long Lionel Richie 8 Jimbhoy Going home Runrig 9 Little_miss When a man loves a woman Marvin Gaye 10 Mcneillm Waltzing matilda Tom Waits 11 Omurchu Sympathy for the devil Rolling Stones 12 Sillygirl It's different For girls Joe Jackson 13 Skimpydoo Shine on you crazy diamond Pink Floyd 14 Sweetvelvet My heart will go on Celine Dion 15 Vonney Scorn not his simplicity Phil Coultor
To all of you who contributed a song and shared why it is special for you - thank you. I will be completing the CD and burnng copies of it this evening. Please email me to arrange to get a copy of the CD to you. If anyone else would like a copy of the CD, I will happily make a copy of it for you - just email me also.
Some people joined the Thread in the early days and I asked them to leave so that people would risk coming into the thread with their “special” song. If I offended in how I asked you - sorry, that was not my intention.

1 Bluebelle - Careless whisper - George Michael 2 Ciaran - California - Eagles 3 Crystal - Have I told you lately - Van Morrison 4 Ecoprincess - Babylon system - Bob Marley 5 Elise - Wonder - Natalie Merchant 6 Falling man - Berlin - Lou Reid 7 Godsgift - Caledonia - Frankie Miller 8 Hasagoodheart - All night long - Lionel Richie 9 Jampet - The blowers daughter - Damien Rice 10 Jimbhoy - Going home - ????????

Of course you can change songs. Your place is booked on the CD, the song of choice is up to you. Have decided myself to go with All Night Long/ Lionel Richie and not Lady/ Kenny Rogers.
You've got the full attention of the male audience I'll bet with the "he doesnt know who he is yet". Reckon they're all gone checking the Inbox in case it's them....
Although we're only allowed one song each on the CD, here is my alternative song. Its "All Night Long" by Lionel Richie.
No matter how tough the day (and there have been some tough days), how crazy the situation, on goes the music and I just dance it out. This is the ultimate dance song for me. It is wild, it is uncontrolled, it's six and a half minutes of pure passion. It demands that I let go and get back into my body. Its not the swing dance music that I dance to now, but its still my number one dance song.

Jim - you're only allowed one song. And if you dare to say why the second one is special you're dead when Nuala get her hands on you, or your balls !.
Keep the songs coming folks. Twenty songs fit on a CD, so the first twenty make in onto the first 2008 CS Music Compilation CD, to be circulated to the twenty people who contributed songs.
And please do say why the songs are special to you, as much as it ok to share.
There are lots of postings for light fun, humour, chit-chat, banter. I enjoy them and am well able to join in too, particularly if its about chocolate !.
But this Posting is for something different. It's an opportunity for people to bring more about themselves into the Forum, to share something personal about themselves, to let people get to know them.
So, again.........
Everybody has a song that means a lot to them, for very personal reasons. Can be about a special time in your life, be about a happy or a sad time, be about a special person or a special place, whatever.
Why not share it with us. Tell us your "special" song. Please include the lyrics so we can understand the song. Explain why it is so special for you. Be as personal as is ok with you.
I get personal, but then those of you who know me know that (and tolerate it, thank you).
This song is about my first love, H. We had gone out as innocent boy and girl - but never went too far. She married someone else. Three months after my marriage ended I met her again. Her marriage had ended too. It had been twenty years since we last met, yet within an hour the closeness that had there so long ago was there again.
This time though we met as man and woman. And yes this time we went all the way. For a while I thought I had found what I have always sought, but we had changed as people and no it didn't last. Yet this was our song and, yes, it still goes to my heart and puts me in touch with being human when I hear it.
To you H.
Peter
Lady, Im your knight in shining armor and I love you You have made me what I am and I am yours My love, theres so many ways I want to say I love you Let me hold you in my arms forever more
You have gone and made me such a fool Im so lost in your love And oh, we belong together Wont you believe in my song?
Lady, for so many years I thought Id never find you You have come into my life and made me whole Forever let me wake to see you each and every morning Let me hear you whisper softly in my ear

The Dance songs will be compiled onto CD's for the next CS get together. That way you get to dance to your special song. On request, I will make free copies of the CD's available on the night even.
Three simple rules apply: - One song per person only please, so choose carefully. - Music cannot be about any ex's who are on CS, that's too personal. - If you are going to comment on somebody else music, be positive.
