Kaidy Mae Posted April 7, 2005 Report Posted April 7, 2005 A friend of mine asked me today what my favourite songs were to sing around the campfire. He's gearing up for festival season and is looking for suggestions for tunes with audience participation, etc.I suggested the usual Rocky Raccoon, Uncle John's Band, etc. Although I'm torn between Alex's versions of Baby Snakes and Don't sh!t Where You Eat as my favourite sing alongs as of late. They were both hits at my annual SnowCops party. You remember that Mousey? LOL Or by that time were you still trying to figure out how you ended up in the furnace room? ::There were some nice campfire jams after the boat cruise last year. Perhaps Crissinger, Feff or Kimmer can help me remember if they see this. ::
StoneMtn Posted April 7, 2005 Report Posted April 7, 2005 Anything popular by Bob Marley. (In my experience, he is truly the only "universal" musician, in that most people into any genre dig him and know his lyrics, or at least are unoffended by him.)
Esau Posted April 7, 2005 Report Posted April 7, 2005 "Up against the wall redneck mother" - Jerry Jeff Walker "Illegal Smile" - John Prine "One Toke Over The Line" - Brewer & Shipley Too many Dylan songs to mention.
Paan Posted April 7, 2005 Report Posted April 7, 2005 Happy Birthday.. it's the only one that I can remember the words to.
Velvet Posted April 7, 2005 Report Posted April 7, 2005 Paradise By The Dashboard Light (both parts) - Meat Loaf Okay, we got a real pressure cooker going here, two down, nobody on, bottom of the ninth...

Super Freak Posted April 7, 2005 Report Posted April 7, 2005 It's Bed of Roses for me. This song has so many single fist pull downs, definately a really fun tune to sing along to. Think about it, run the song through your head for a sec... I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses For, tonight (insert slowly rising rock fist here) I sleep on a (fist slowly pulls down here) bed of nails... (my personal favourite ROCK lyrics coming up) I wanna be just as close as, the Holy Ghost is... Rock takes on a whole new meaning when they think they've seen the light...either that, or nothing else would rhyme. Like what was he supposed to say, "I wanna be just as close as, your tampons and your douche is..." Now I'm starting to think...How the hell close is the Holy Ghost...is this getting wierd...wait...am I trying to get to the deeper meaning of fu©king Bon Jovi Lyrics? Somebody get a baseball bat and put me out of my misery. Rock got no reason, rock got no rhyme.
