Topic: 3 Songs or Death!!

Ok, not quite as dramatic as the title may suggest but pretty simple question.

Dr Evil captures you (I'm watching Austin Powers as I type) and is threatening you with his "laserr" unless you can perform 3 songs well enough for him to let you go.

What songs do you play???




Mwahahahahahaaaaaa

All I got, is a red guitar, three chords and the truth

Re: 3 Songs or Death!!

Three of my own! and being the twisted evil mind he's gonna love um smile

Re: 3 Songs or Death!!

Mine life savers would have to be:

Neil Diamond's "Pretty Amazing Grace" - the newest song to my repertoire
James McCormick's "One Of These Days" - still one of my favourite songs
The Righteous Brothers "Unchained Melody" - a classic

Re: 3 Songs or Death!!

'Mother' by Pink Floyd
'Fiddlers Green' by Stereophonics or Tragically Hip
'Hotel California' by The Eagles

Then i'd be laserrred anyway!


Mwuhahhahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!

I'm the son of rage and love

Re: 3 Songs or Death!!

We are the Light by The Alarm
My Old Friend the Blues by Steve Earle (i think)
Dancing Queen by ABBA

I'm as good as a free man. As long as Dr Evil is as drunk as most folk are when listening to me.:)

Is anything really made up of zeros and ones??

Re: 3 Songs or Death!!

White Bird by It's a Beautiful Day, Reflections of My Life by Marmalade and Devil Woman by Marty Robbins.

I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.

Ophelia by The Band, Sail Away by Sonny Terry and Brownie
Maghee, and Farewell To Nova Scotia by John Allen Cameron,

cool  Badeye  cool

one caper after another

Re: 3 Songs or Death!!

Can't say what Dr. Evil expects in showmanship and delivery, but I think the three songs I'd do are:

My Life Revolves Around Pee - by me
Tin Cup Chalice - by Jimmy Buffett
Early Morning Rain - by Gordon Lightfoot.  It was a tough choice on the last one.  Wonderful Tonight was close, but I expect that I could sing a song about a drunk guy whining to himself in the wet grass of an airport better than a love song under that kind of pressure.

Granted B chord amnesty by King of the Mutants (Long live the king).
If it comes from the heart and you add a few beers... it'll be awesome! - Mekidsmom
When in doubt ... hats. - B.G. Dude

Re: 3 Songs or Death!!

Great topic:

I'm going with Mercury Blues,
Rapid Roy that Stock Car Boy (Jim Croce)
and since I'm partial to 7th chords, I'll go with Folsom Prison Blues.

Re: 3 Songs or Death!!

I would play

south of heaven by slayer
heavy metal by sammy hegar
and Green sleves by (blank)

he wouldnt know what to do with me after that

The problem with the world is people having lack of commen sense...and warning labels. So if we remove warning labels the problem will fix itself.

Re: 3 Songs or Death!!

mmmm... My physical existance depends on this huh?...... I'll have to go with the following;

Tempted by Squeeze
What's Goin' On by Marvin Gaye
Please Don't Bury Me by John Prine

...and I'd do a little loop thingy at the end of my last song in an attempt to musically hypnotize ole Dr. Evil. If successful I'd take his laser away from him and promptly destroy it. Then I'd give him a big, warm, hug and welcome him into my world of peace and love..............................

Give everything but up.

Hey Southy,
I must have missed that world on the drive to North Lauderdale!! HA HA.

I think Dr. Evil is so twisted that he will most likely lazzerrrr me anyway, I will try to sing 3 songs so deep, so moving, that NO man will be able to resist not only letting me go and crowning me King Papa, BUT he will also make me 7.3 fuchsia socks for my cold feet!!

1) The Chicken Dance   
2) Row Row Row your boat
3) Blame it on the Rain (Milli Vanilli)

.....Thank you for letting me go Mr. Evil. Sure I will take my Royal Scepter. Oh my feet? They are toasty warm. Thank You!
