Hi Beckie

You dont have to ask just contribute!!!

Now then im extremely jealous that you met Bon Jovi...Hmm nice bum...LOL!!! Like your choices and even though Ga Ga is bonkers she is quite catchy...

Elainex

elainebadknee

OH Elizabeth

Good choices, Hot Chocolate, Nirvana and Creep - Radiohead (yes we all know someone that song applies to) or is it just me??

Hanson was catchy and you find yourself singing along to it but im kinda glad they stopped at one hit...Phew!!

Elainex

Ps - Dont Macy Gray sound like Marge Simpson when she speaks???

Beckie

Tony is in denial, he will be bidding secretly for Take That tickets and who knows who he has on his wall/Phone??

Elainex

elainebadknee

Oh Mellman's a romantic at heart - but is he a new one that is the question???

Through The Barricades, ive got the single somewhere...REM are good, whats the song with the lyrics "im pushing an elephant up the stairs"? Ken Bruce commented once it was about Vanessa Feltz...Ooops!!!
Lurve Bob Marley he is a chill out cd man...and remember seeing Pink Floyd a few years ago at a concert in 2005 or thereabouts and they were ace live.....

Elainex

elainebadknee

Ha

I were right about you whilst some of your choices Purple Rain, Rapture, Gerry Rafferty are ace - youve got JT!!! I knew you had a music secret!! Ive got his cd and think he is good, liked his other songs, one with madonna and the one where he's being a cocky little git and telling all the men to leave the club so he can be alone with the girlies!!!

This is getting intersting...

Still got the poster of that tennis player scratching her bum.. lol
Kidding aren't ya? Now I'm 'middle aged :shock: :roll: " only things on the wall are scenic photos and family ones, I do miss mi tennis pic, lol... My walls as a teen were covered in Blondie and Siouxsie and the banshees pics etc..

And as for the TT tckts, shhhhh, that's our secret Elaine :shock:

Just seen your last post, I know JT.. What can I say, he's a bloody good entertainer I suppose

elainebadknee

Hi Tony

Well yes in the words of Hall n Oates youre a family man and id expect you to have photos of your missus, children and if youve got any pets??
Didnt that poster of girl scratching her bum reappear on Im A Celebrity recently? My walls had all U2 stuff on them, i liked them for most of my 20's into early 30's then Bono got a bit too political and i lost interest.....
I'll keep quiet about your take that thing....Mark used to live near me a few years back, some say he used to go to local nightspot/cattle market....And JT...he is talented you cant deny it, think Jacko influenced him, hope to god it werent Britney!!!
