ILXoR Theme Songs (Again)

Suggest some theme songs for ILX ppl of your choice!

We have done this before I think but let's do it again. I was playing a very old tape last night and on came "Cool Guitar Boy" by Heavenly and I thought ha Kate's band should cover this and then I thought it was even more perfect when she sings about perfect lust-object boy "Doesn't speak, which is nice / Doesn't have much to say". It doesn't specifically mention dronerock but you can't have everything.

So, other suggestions...?

before anybody even contemplates mentioning myself and "Sk8r Boi" in the same sentence.... don't.

right now i fall between "just don't give a fuck" and "still don't give a fuck".

actually... delusions of grandeur again. ignore all that.

is today have a go at kate day, or something?

― Marcello Carlin, Thursday, 13 March 2003 15:01 (twenty-three years ago)

Every day is have a go at Kate day. Surely you've noticed by now. She has.

Whenever Tom walks into the room I hear Zoom by Fat Larry's Band. Emma is the whole of the Daphne & Celeste album - mainly for her lil' ferrets.

― Pete (Pete), Thursday, 13 March 2003 15:16 (twenty-three years ago)

Do you practise being a smug, arrogant, unpleasant fuckwit or does it just come naturally to you?

― Marcello Carlin, Thursday, 13 March 2003 15:22 (twenty-three years ago)

I learn from masters such as yourself.

See you tonight Marcello.

― Pete (Pete), Thursday, 13 March 2003 15:26 (twenty-three years ago)

Peter, I would advise that you take very great care to avoid seeing me, tonight or any night.

― Marcello Carlin, Thursday, 13 March 2003 15:33 (twenty-three years ago)

Anyone worked out Marcello's theme tune yet?
(I'm trying to work out if its a crackpot comedy tune played on a harmonium or something much more serious and suspenseful dripping with ominous strings. I'll let you know next time I'm in a back alley).

― Pete (Pete), Thursday, 13 March 2003 15:38 (twenty-three years ago)

marcello = "teddy bear's picnic"?

― Bonjour, Tristesse, Thursday, 13 March 2003 15:40 (twenty-three years ago)

crikey! what happened here.

I didn't think anyone on this thread was having a go at kate.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Thursday, 13 March 2003 15:41 (twenty-three years ago)

No, nor did I.

― Pete (Pete), Thursday, 13 March 2003 15:41 (twenty-three years ago)

I think whatever it is is very nice and melodic and mannered for half the time and then suddenly explodes into something very unpleasant and loud and violent for no reason whatsoever every so often.

Julio - nope... accusing Tom of "having a go at Kate" requires a sizeable leap of faith to say the least.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 13 March 2003 15:42 (twenty-three years ago)

''I think whatever it is is very nice and melodic and mannered for half the time and then suddenly explodes into something very unpleasant and loud and violent for no reason whatsoever every so often.''

ah. you're thinking abt the dead C. Nz finest band.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Thursday, 13 March 2003 15:44 (twenty-three years ago)

haha Marcello's tune is by Mogwai!

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 13 March 2003 15:47 (twenty-three years ago)

Ally = "I Don't Want No Short Dick Man"

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 13 March 2003 15:47 (twenty-three years ago)

Oh - Ronan's is "Lazy" obv.

(Not obv because he is Lazy, before anyone accuses me of having a go at Ronan, obv because he talked so much about it way back when).

― Pete (Pete), Thursday, 13 March 2003 15:51 (twenty-three years ago)

You know about them firefighters and their hoses.

"Highway to the Danger Zone" = Ned obv.

Kenny Loggins? You're a sick individual.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 13 March 2003 15:52 (twenty-three years ago)

Blooming Nora- it's a warzone!

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Thursday, 13 March 2003 16:28 (twenty-three years ago)

Anyone worked out Marcello's theme tune yet?

Chris Bell = I Am The Cosmos

― Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Thursday, 13 March 2003 16:32 (twenty-three years ago)

rainy's is "so damn pretty (should be against the law)" by warrant.

― di smith (lucylurex), Thursday, 13 March 2003 21:10 (twenty-three years ago)

Kenny Loggins?

Actually, I meant MC Fatwa and DJ Jihad's "Highway to the Danger Zone (No Fly Zone Mother of All Bombs remix)".

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 13 March 2003 21:14 (twenty-three years ago)

I didn't know Kenny Loggins was recording under a psued!

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 13 March 2003 21:15 (twenty-three years ago)

"psued" = something Phish phans do when you hit them with your car.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 13 March 2003 21:32 (twenty-three years ago)

I Want To Fuck You In The Ass = Dan Perry.

The Passenger is forever linked to Matos in my mind now. Tracer Hand's is The Stroke.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 13 March 2003 22:46 (twenty-three years ago)

the lyrics of that warrant song don't apply to rainy, only the title. duckling "you wear it well" by rod stewart.

― di smith (lucylurex), Friday, 14 March 2003 00:19 (twenty-three years ago)

Julio="I Love This", Dead C

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Friday, 14 March 2003 00:23 (twenty-three years ago)

heheh.. "i can't forget what the point eees... i can't remeeember the eeendeeng.."

― electric sound of jim (electricsound), Friday, 14 March 2003 00:24 (twenty-three years ago)

In no sense was my original post meant to be "having a go" at Kate. I heard a - rather good - song which reminded me of an ilxor and wanted to start a light-hearted thread on the subject. Apologies to Kate if she was insulted by it.

― Tom (Groke), Friday, 14 March 2003 01:19 (twenty-three years ago)

andrew thames: "rebel girl" by bikini kill.

― di smith (lucylurex), Friday, 14 March 2003 01:29 (twenty-three years ago)

b-b-but I want "I Wanna Fuck You in the Ass" as my theme
:'(

― M Matos (M Matos), Friday, 14 March 2003 01:30 (twenty-three years ago)

I suppose that's the Ep version, is it?

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Friday, 14 March 2003 01:42 (twenty-three years ago)

no, the one with joan jett.

― di smith (lucylurex), Friday, 14 March 2003 01:45 (twenty-three years ago)

I think Jim's should be something like "While my Guitar Gently Weeps", tho thats a bit obv. Please do not hit me.

― Trayce (trayce), Friday, 14 March 2003 03:21 (twenty-three years ago)

eek! nar, my theme will always and forever be "these days"

― electric sound of jim (electricsound), Friday, 14 March 2003 03:24 (twenty-three years ago)

Marcello = Manic's "Faster"

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 14 March 2003 04:30 (twenty-three years ago)

I have no idea why, but for some reason JBR=Blue Oyster Cult's "The Revenge of Vera Gemini", even though Jody is not especially sinister or devilish (as far as I know)

― Nate Patrin (Nate Patrin), Friday, 14 March 2003 04:37 (twenty-three years ago)

Yeah, that works.

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Friday, 14 March 2003 09:15 (twenty-three years ago)

even though Jody is not especially sinister or devilish

YOU TAKE THAT BACK.

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Friday, 14 March 2003 09:15 (twenty-three years ago)

I was about to say. She was goth at one point, ergo sinister and devilish. Surely.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 14 March 2003 16:13 (twenty-three years ago)

I was never a goth. OK maybe for five minutes. But I still think Bauhaus suck.

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Friday, 14 March 2003 21:30 (twenty-three years ago)

Haha you goth.

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 14 March 2003 21:43 (twenty-three years ago)

But I still think Bauhaus suck.

Shame on you, Jody.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 14 March 2003 22:43 (twenty-three years ago)

Haha Alex is a goth too.

― Ally (mlescaut), Saturday, 15 March 2003 07:03 (twenty-three years ago)

But I still think Bauhaus suck.

You heart me in my hurt. (I had to vary the line *somehow*...)
