Rock and Roll, baby, Rock and Roll

<<<Yay, Amuse, you got it. It’s Jimi as the Alien in the last line his song “Third Stone from the Sun.” Jimi’s always been a hero to me.

Oh Strange beautiful grass of green
With your majestic silken scenes
Your mysterious mountains
I wish to see closer
May I land my kinky machine

Although your world wonders me
With your majestic superior cackling hen
Your people I do not understand
So to you I wish to put an end
And you’ll never hear surf music again

The line is apparently in reference to a guitar player who influenced a younger Jimi: the King of the surf guitar, Dick Dale. Arguably Dick’s most famous tune is “Miserlou” which Quentin Tarentino used as a kick-in-the-head opening to “Pulp Fiction.” When Jimi wrote “Third Stone from the Sun,” Dick had just been diagnosed with cancer and Jimi was paying his respects. Ironically, Dick beat cancer but Jimi didn’t survive the sixties.>>>

i think we shud put some more fun in this game,,
i don' see much brain stretching in this game as the
starter said. only that u can increase ur no. of posts..


All you do is post a word, the first one that comes to mind perhaps, when you read the last word posted:

[emily655321]

true, but it's addictive :D What if we combine the concept of this game and the name association one (even more of a marking thread, if you ask me, though why I'm participating I don't know :D)... instead of the first word that comes to mind, maybe it still has to be related to the first word, but it has to start with the last letter of the first word? Like, in this case...

[madness]

sanity

[rocksea]

yep

well that is the answer n the first word (word?) that came into my mind. it relates to what you said, but didnt relate to ur word though. but starts from the last letter of ur word.

[rocksea]

please

yea sometimes we say please for yes. it relates n starts from the last letter..

[emily655321]

cool, I gotcha. :D Yay, this will be more fun.
