them muppets sure can play, don't ya think? all kidding aside, i really like the music from muppet movies and shows.... *aurora borealis, shinin' down on dallas. can you picture that?*
i want to learn to play banjo...and i want to play this song....its such a great song.... Why are there so many songs about rainbows And what's on the other side? Rainbows are visions, but only illusions, And rainbows have nothing to hide. So we've been told and some choose to believe it I know they're wrong, wait and see. Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection, The lovers, the dreamers and me. Who said that every wish would be heard and answered When wished on the morning star? Somebody thought of that, and someone believed it, And look what it's done so far. What's so amazing that keeps us stargazing And what do we think we might see? Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection, The lovers, the dreamers, and me. All of us under its spell, We know that it's probably magic... ... Have you been half asleep? And have you heard voices? I've heard them calling my name. ... Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors? The voice might be one and the same I've heard it too many times to ignore it It's something that I'm s'posed to be... Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection, The lovers, the dreamers, and me. Laa, da daa dee da daa daa, La laa la la laa dee daa doo...
i'm trying to weasle some fabric from a friend that has kermit playing the banjo on it.... i like gonzo's some, i'm going to go back there someday... This looks familiar, vaguely familiar, Almost unreal, yet, it's too soon to feel yet. Close to my soul, and yet so far away. I'm going to go back there someday. Sun rises, night falls, sometimes the sky calls. Is that a song there, and do I belong there? I've never been there, but I know the way. I'm going to go back there someday. Come and go with me, it's more fun to share, We'll both be completely at home in midair. We're flyin', not walkin', on featherless wings. We can hold onto love like invisible strings. There's not a word yet for old friends who've just met. Part heaven, part space, or have I found my place? You can just visit, but I plan to stay. I'm going to go back there someday. I'm going to go back there someday.
Anybody hear of the album, "The Muppits Unpigged?" I have it. It's really good. Puts a smile to my face whenever I listen to it.
Yeah man, Animal is my idol!! What's the name of the blue muppet who plays the sax? That hat he's wearing is just so cool. THE DATSUNS.
I loooooove the muppets! And I agree about the music. I remember (fuzzy thought) a segment when they were doing this jungle scene and they were all singing "STOP hey, what's that sound? Everybody see what going dooooooown." That was one of my favorite's. Oh yeah, and when animal played the drums for "fever", that was funny too
Actually the Muppet Band is based on alot of different rock stars: Animal is based on Keith Moon Janis (obviously) is based on Janis Joplin And that one with the big green nose (I forget his name) is based on Jerry Garcia.
~*mana mana do do do do do*~ heehee i remember a really super dooper funny version of sam the blue eagle (i think?) and fozzy (i think?) doing *tit willow* ~ so silly makes me pee my pants*~
The mupped with the see-thru visor eyelids sounds exactly like David Grisman. Heh heh. ANIMAL ANIMAL!! (Goes into drum solo)
big green nose??? Dr.Teeth??? he's my fave! no way he's based on jerry...well, maybe, but.... janis and floyd are so cute.... hehe...maybe i like the muppets a little too much
I was also gonna say Country Joe MacDonald. Or maybe it was Jerry Garcia... Whatever... I gotta see "The Muppet Movie" again to catch a glimpse of that.
Dr. Teeth looks kinda like Edgar Winter the red one with the left-handed guitar was the one I thought looked like Jerry Garcia The green one with the glasses, gives off kindof a Ray Charles vibe.
"uh-oh, zoot skipped a groove again...." haha....he (the one with the sunglasses) is cool too... ever seen A Rocky Mountain Holiday with the Muppets and John Denver? good stuff.... Floyd and John singin Gone Fishin..... Gone fishin' There's a sign upon your door Gone fishin' I ain't workin' anymore There's a hoe out in the sun Where you left a row half done I said "Hoe-in' ain't no fun" You ain't got no ambition Gone fishin' - by a shady, wady pool Gone fishin', - man, you really play it cool We don't wish to be annoyed, Mister John, And Mister Floyd, we're fishin' Instead of just a-wishin' We're fishin' instead of just a-wishin' Oh, yeah!
i was going to say....it wouldn't be christmas at my mom's house if we didn't listen to the john denver and muppet christmas record.....
