Man Of No Ego - Black in White - Blinkers Removed (432hz album)

[Queen Elizabeth II]

Two versions of "Old Johnny Bugger", one a solo by John Dean and the other by Belladonna. Unfortunately they've both mysteriously left out the last verse, perhaps because of the expletive in it. The only one I can find that has the last verse is Jim Wearne's, but he can't sing for shit.

If you want to include the last verse when you sing it yourself, it goes:

Now Old Johnny died and he went up to heaven,
He got there about half past seven.
Saw St. Peter sitting by the gate,
Who said: "You'll have to bugger off 'cause you're too bloody late!"

Advisory note for millennials

The line, "Old Johnny Bugger was a gay old bugger, and a gay old bugger was he!" means that Johnny was a jolly old fellow. It doesn't mean that he was an ageing homosexual with a penchant for anal intercourse. If you're into that kind of thing then you'll have to look for the parody version, entitled "Old Johnny Bugger was a Gay Ass-f*cker".

Scriabin - Etudes op 8 no. 12 played by Vladimir Horowitz.

An unbelievable, cataclysmic force of nature - ecstatic, enthusiastic, incandescent and irresistable. Crescendissimo and accelerandissimo from beginning to the end. After listening to this every other pianist's rendition sounds like a hairdresser's.

Doris Day letting the world know that the Atomic Age had begun in earnest.

"Tic, Tic, Tic", from the movie "My Dream is Yours", 1949.

Oh give me your attention
There's been a new invention
It isn't any larger than an adding machine
It's only fair to mention
Though it's a new invention
It's one that you have heard about but few have ever seen

It doesn't do division and it doesn't multiply
It doesn't want to be a bird, it doesn't try to fly
It came about because they made a big atomic bomb
The new invention's clicking and because of all its ticking
I know where the idea came from

I tic, tic, tic, why do I tic, tic?
What amazing trick, makes me tic, tic, tic
I tic, tic, tic, an electric tic
When I feel a realistic tic

You're such an attractive pick
Give me a radioactive kick
It's distracted the way you stick
But love, love makes me tic

I tic, tic, tic and my heart beats quick
How can anything go wrong?
When I'm listening to that Geiger counter song
I tic, tic all day long

I tic, tic, tic, why do I tic, tic?
What amazing trick, makes me tic-tic-tic-tic-tic
I tic, tic, tic, an electric tic
When I feel a realistic tic

Butcher and the baker tic
So does the maker of the candlesticks
Lawyers have their politics
But love, love makes them tic

So tic, tic, tic, let your heart tic, tic
How can anything go wrong?
If you're listening to that Geiger counter song
You'll tic, tic all day long

Like the butcher and baker tics
Like the candlestick maker tics
Like the doctor and the lawyer tics
Even though he's mixed up in his politics
Like the merchant and the Indian chief tic-tics
Like the poor, like the rich man tic-tic-tics
Digging a ditch man, the butter and egg man
The poor wooden leg man, the beggar and thief

All found out what its all about
When its love you can't be wrong
You better listen to that Geiger counter song
And tic tic all day long
Tic, tic-tic-tic, tic, tic, tic-tic-tic, tic, tic, tic-tic-tic

David Bowie wrote this shortly before he died. It may be one of the best and most raw pop songs about death ever.
