The love song formula - Sunday, January 30, 2005 6:59 PM
This has got to be one of the best things I've heard in my life....

Download song here...

Declaration of my feelings for you
Elaboration on those feelings
Description of how long these feelings have existed
Belief that no one else could feel the same as I
Reminiscence of the pleasant times we shared
And our relationship's perfection
Recounting of the steps that led to our love's dissolution
Mostly involving my unfaithfulness and lies
Penitent admission of wrongdoing
Discovery of the depth of my affection
Regret over the lateness of my epiphany

Title of the song
Naïve expression of love
Reluctance to accept that you are gone
Request to turn back time
And rectify my wrongs
Repetition of the title of the song

Enumeration of my various transgressive actions
Of insufficient motivation
Realization that these actions led to your departure
And my resultant lack of sleep and appetite
Renunciation of my past insensitive behavior
Promise of my reformation
Reassurance that you still are foremost in my thoughts now
Need for instructions how to gain your trust again
Request for reconciliation
Listing of the numerous tasks that I'd perform
Of physical and emotional compensation

Title of the song
Naïve expression of love
Reluctance to accept that you are gone
Request to turn back time
And rectify my wrongs
Repetition of the title of the song

Acknowledgment that I acted foolishly
Increasingly desperate pleas for your return
Sorrow for my infidelity
Vain hope that my sins are forgivable
Appeal for one more opportunity
Drop to my knees to elicit crowd response
Prayers to my chosen deity
Modulation and I hold a high note...

Title of the song
Naïve expression of love
Reluctance to accept that you are gone
Request to turn back time
And rectify my wrongs
Repetition of the title of the song

Ooohhhhhhh dude... Thank you SO much.

I LOVE this group. I'm a sucker for a cappella music to begin with, and the way these guys write and perform just takes it all to another level. LOVE it!!!

Wow. Its really great! I started kinda laughing when the guy was like "Modulation and I hold a high note..." it was like a step by step process, very cool. Thanks gus, for providing us pictures of your lovely wife and this song.


Wow...I just noticed how well this song was written!

..::Peace. Love. Harmony. Minor 3rds::..

ROTFLMAO!!! Just don't tell her she's on the forum... last time I showed her pic she was a bit pissed...

The "Modulation and I hold a high note..." just kills me, it's just great.

Great song. I had almost forgotten about that song. I remember hearing it years ago on the Bob and Tom radio show and laughing my ass off. Great stuff.

For anybody wondering, this group is called DaVinci's Notebook.

I've known this song forever... I'm sure I posted about it at least once back in the last five years or so.

Funny thing is, when I saw the subject of this thread, I thought to myself I bet he's going to be talking about "Title of the Song." LOL.

For those interested, here's the FULL "title" of this song:

Title of the Song: A Rhetorical and Structural Analysis of Boy-Band Ballads from the Mid- to Late-1990s

Rather than starting a new thread... I'm going to post this song on this one... this is another song from these guys, hope you like it:

Download it here...

Lyrics:

Whenever life gets you down
Keeps you wearing a frown
And the gravy train has left you behind
And when you're all out of hope
Down at the end of your rope
And nobody's there to throw you a line

If you ever get so low that you don't know which way to go
Come on and take a walk in my shoes
Never worry bout a thing
Got the world on a string
Cus I've got the cure for all of my blues (all of his blues)

I take a look at my enormous penis
And my troubles start a-meltin' away
I take a look at my enormous penis
And the happy times are coming to stay

I got a sing and a dance when I glance in my pants
And the feeling's like a sunshiney day
I take a look at my enormous pe-e-e-nis
And everything is goin' my way

(whistling)

(ad lib solo)

PE-E-NIS

(end ad lib solo)

Sing along at home, why don't you?
I take a look at my enormous penis (it's not that hard)
And my troubles start a-meltin' away
I take a look at my enormous penis
And the happy times are coming to stay

I got great big amounts in the place where it counts
And the feeling's like a sunshiney day
I take a look at my enormous penis
And everything is goin' my way
Everything is going' my way (hey, look at this goobers)
Everything is goin' my way (ay chihuahua!!)
Everything is goin' my waaaaaay
yummmm

LMAO!
The car is on fire,
And there's no driver at the wheel.
And the sewers are all muddied with a thousand lonely suicides,
And a dark wind blows.
