Hello!

draconian - 6-10-2005 at 04:07 AM

This is great Heileman's Old Style Ima Robot stuff...the drum machine and fuzzy fuzzy synth reminds me of their earliest songs.

Noisemonster - 6-10-2005 at 04:21 AM

Yes! Or how about Young Guns??

Hey sucker
(What the hell's got into you?)
Hey sucker
(Now there's nothing you can do)

Well I hadn't seen your face around town awhile,
So I greeted you, with a knowing smile,
When I saw that girl upon your arm,
I knew she won your heart with a fatal charm.
I said "Soul Boy, let's hit the town!"
I said "Soul Boy, what's with the frown?"
But in return, all you could say was
"Hi George, meet my fiancee"

Young Guns,
Having some fun
Crazy ladies keep 'em on the run.
Wise guys realize there's danger in emotional ties.
See me, single and free
No tears, no fears, what I want to be.
One, two, take a look at you
Death by matrimony!

Hey sucker,
(What the hell's got into you?)
Hey sucker!
(Now there's nothing you can do.)

A married man? you're out of your head
Sleepless nights, on an H.P. bed
A daddy by the time you're twenty-one
If your happy with a nappy then you're in for fun.
But you're here-
And you're there
Well there's guys like you just everywhere
Looking back on the good old days?
Well this young gun says CAUTION PAYS!

Chorus

Young Guns,
Having some fun
Crazy ladies keep 'em on the run.
Wise guys realize there's danger in emotional ties.
See me, single and free
No tears, no fears, what I want to be.
One, two, take a look at you
Death by matrimony!

I remember when he such fun and everthing was fine,
I remember when we use to have a good time,
Partners in crime.
Tell me that's all in the past and I will gladly walk away,
Tell me that you're happy now,
Turning my back-
Nothing to say!

"Hey tell this jerk to take a hike,
There's somethin' 'bout that boy I don't like"
"Well sugar he don't mean the things he said"
"Just get him outta my way, 'cause I'm seeing red
We got plans to make, we got things to buy
And you're wasting time on some creepy guy"
"Hey shut up chick, that's a friend of mine,
Just watch your mouth babe, you're out of line"

OoooooH!

GET BACK
HANDS OFF
GO FOR IT!
GET BACK
HANDS OFF
GO FOR IT!

(Repeat Chorus)

:lol::lol::lol:

My bad :P I didn't realize you had said "download"....I computed that as "preview the song" . :lol:

RoboticTerrorSTD - 6-11-2005 at 02:21 PM

Oh man Poobs I LOVE YOUNG GUNS! My friend and I listen to my Wham's Greatest Hits (some import from Germany or something like that) nearly everyday.

poobs - 6-11-2005 at 04:04 PM

My sister has the Greatest Hits! It's so sweet!!

imarob2 - 6-13-2005 at 09:45 PM

But what if, say, someone DID find a way to download the song?:saint:

Evil - 6-13-2005 at 11:15 PM

You would kindly tell the rest of us how to do so.

RoboticTerrorSTD - 6-14-2005 at 04:04 AM

:yes:

imarob2 - 6-14-2005 at 12:47 PM

Of course i would...;)
if youre using a mac, go to http://versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/16382
and get this program called audio hijack, it lets you record pretty much anything, i couldnt find a way to convert things to a .mp3, but i think their .aiff files play on anything.

Bear - 6-15-2005 at 09:47 AM

Imarob2 you're a wizard. I love this new song. I wouldn't mind hearing them do a Smiths cover also. Nice going mates.

blackamnesia - 6-17-2005 at 06:24 AM

Wasn't sure about it first time i heard it..but tis definitly growing on me.

Are you a Hope of the States fan, by any chance? :)

blackamnesia - 6-20-2005 at 03:22 AM

I am indeed (not as much as ima robot though) ....how'd you guess :p
Havn't listened to them for ages though..might listen to them now you've reminded me.

avw86 - 6-20-2005 at 04:52 PM

Nice :)

Are you a member on their message board?

Yes, listen to them! Oh, and if you haven't heard about this...go to www.thehalfwayhome.com because HOTS have donated a track called "Winters" that you can get if you donate (all the proceeds go to one of the board member's Motor Neuron Disorder fund.) It's an *awesome* track!

blackamnesia - 6-21-2005 at 04:02 AM

ooh, never knew that place exsisted. . thank you very muchly for the link...winters is such a pretty song

but no, im not on the board. I hardly post on any boards now...i mean, i signed up for this forum last year, and ive only just started posting and stuff.:no:

avw86 - 6-21-2005 at 03:34 PM

You're welcome! Glad you like the song :) That place is awesome, it's run by a fan named Keir. Everything you need to know about HOTS is on there!

You should join that board, especially as the majority of the people on there are in the UK, so it's good for meet-ups/new concert buddies/getting tickets, etc. :)

sonnymoorewhorex - 8-10-2005 at 12:32 PM

wow. that's a great cover.
for some reason i couldn't find it but then today i stumbled across it and was freaking out.

corkey16 - 8-10-2005 at 07:46 PM

:lol: Cool Picture.
