    Mr Flip,

    Yes, I do agree. I never tire of Kashmir either. Or How Many More Times. Or Bring It on Home. Or We're Gonna Groove. The early stuff mostly.

    For some reason every time I hear a Kingdom Song at the meetings, all I can hear is this song:

    LONELY SHEEP- That is cool having Kashmir as your ring tone ! I like it !

    OPEN MIND- Have the guys with the white coats come to get you yet ? LOL! That was a bizarre song, " They're Coming to Take Me away". But I think it was quite normal as compared to the kingdom melody songs we were forced to sing. I always lip synced anyway, never actually sang em'

    My Daughter in law loves Kashmir..she has it on her license plate. She had a problem for a while when there was so much trouble in Kashmir...

    This is for Insomniac...Lion sleeps tonight or Wimoweh...I don't remember who originally sang it in the 50's but I have the old 45..packed away.

    TWITCH- Those are some good Led Zeppelin songs you picked !

    SNOOZY- Yeah, Kashmir is a great song. Led Zeppelin had studied arabian and middle east music and were one of the first to blend it in with rock'n roll. Aside from the Beatles doing the Indian music thing that is

    There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold,

    And she's buying a Stairway to Heaven,

    When she get's there she knows if the stores are all closed ,

    With a word she can get what she came for.


    There's a sign on the wall, but she wants to be sure,

    Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings,

    In a tree by the brook, ther's a songbird who sings,

    Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.

    And she's buying a Stairway to Heaven


    There's a feeling I get, when I look to the west,

    And my spirit is crying for leaving,

    In my thoughts I have seen, rings of smoke through the trees,

    And the voices of those who stand looking.


    If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now,

    It's just the spring clean for the May Queen,

    Your head is humming and it won't go, and did you know,

    The piper's calling you to join him


    Yes there are two paths you can go on, but in the long run,

    There's still time to change the road your on,

    Dear lady can you hear the wind blow, and did you know,

    Your stairway lies on the whispering wind ?





    There walks a lady we all know, who shines white light and wants to show,

    How everything still turns to gold, and if you listen very hard,

    The tune will come to you at last, when one is all and all is one,

    To be a rock and not to roll !
