NONKINSENSE

Adventures of an Analog Man in the Digital Universe, with a little help from my friends and relations.

Here's a list everybody will want to participate in and send me an e-mail or leave a comment, top five reasons I want to chop off the head of Nonkinsense or for that small minority with the highly evolved brains, who get it, the top five reasons I enjoy what's in the head of Nonkinsense.

Kid, TOO FAR, TOO ESOTERIC, I'M STILL KING!

Nobody can, sing the blues, like Blind Willie McTell..

Seen the arrow on the doorpost
Saying, "This land is condemned
All the way from New Orleans
To Jerusalem."
I traveled through East Texas
Where many martyrs fell
And I know no one can sing the blues
Like Blind Willie McTell

Well, I heard the hoot owl singing
As they were taking down the tents
The stars above the barren trees
Were his only audience
Them charcoal gypsy maidens
Can strut their feathers well
But nobody can sing the blues
Like Blind Willie McTell

See them big plantations burning
Hear the cracking of the whips
Smell that sweet magnolia blooming
(And) see the ghosts of slavery ships
I can hear them tribes a-moaning
(I can) hear the undertaker's bell
(Yeah), nobody can sing the blues
Like Blind Willie McTell

There's a woman by the river
With some fine young handsome man
He's dressed up like a squire
Bootlegged whiskey in his hand
There's a chain gang on the highway
I can hear them rebels yell
And I know no one can sing the blues
Like Blind Willie McTell

Well, God is in heaven
And we all want what's his
But power and greed and corruptible seed
Seem to be all that there is
I'm gazing out the window
Of the St. James Hotel
And I know no one can sing the blues
Like Blind Willie McTell

"Blue Moon Of Kentucky"

Blue moon of Kentucky keep on shinin'
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
I said blue moon of Kentucky keep on shinin'
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue

[with music]


Well is was on one moonlit night
Stars shinin' bright
Whispered all night
Love said goodbye




HAVA NAGILA LET US REJOICE & BE GLAD

Hava nagila, hava nagila
Hava nagila venis'mecha

Repeat

Hava neranena, hava neranena
Hava neranena venis'mecha

Uru, uru achim
Uru achim belev same'ach

Let us rejoice
and be glad

Repeat

Let us sing


Awaken brethren
With a cheerful heart.

Musicians, particularly female ones, he has digitized, want Nonkinsense to leave you the hell alone, do what I did:

Words and music by Mars Bonfire

Get your motor runnin'
Head out on the highway
Lookin' for adventure
And whatever comes our way
Yeah Darlin' go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And explode into space


I like smoke and lightning
Heavy metal thunder
Racin' with the wind
And the feelin' that I'm under
Yeah Darlin' go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And explode into space

Like a true nature's child
We were born, born to be wild
We can climb so high
I never wanna die

Born to be wild
Born to be wild

Of all the e-mails in all the world you had to respond to this one, sister:

Rick: I told him, play it Sam, you played it for her you can play it for me, he said but Mr. Rock,: But, but...

Rick: I said play Sam! and then and only then does he do a Dick Clark impression and goes into the Nuvim theme, while singing "As Time Go By."

Rick: mumbling to himself, we always had Paris...Oh yes, what memories, the Paris Hilton. Posted by Hello


It's no SECRET, I was not chasing after you, I'm a happily married man, I adore my wife, and the Jewish religion, but, that's right, I said, but, don't you play accordian, sing and play drums at the same time, and are available for Friday evenings, starting at 6 or 6:30PM?!!?? AND BY THE WAY, NOW THAT I GOT EVERYBODY'S ATTENTION:

need to do a list on people that are worthy of being taken in by Jeb Bush or saved by Congress.

Ladies, on behalf of the Commander and myself, what we're really looking for, is someone to come down and play drums Monday Lunch time, when the Creative Genius, that is Tom, has to find new ways of saying FACTORY AND DEALER APPROVED PRE-OWNED VECHICLES, SALE ENDS SUNDAY, NO CREDIT, NO PROBLEM.

About 10 years ago, someone gave me a hanging mobile made from hammered and twisted flatware. There were a coupld of flattened spoons, two knives attached by strings to a fork with bent and curled tines. After about a year, my son tired of whacking his head into this hanging shit-mobile and removed all the parts, leaving the fork in place.
After all these years, why hasnt anyone ever pointed out that I have a twisted fork attached to a string, hanging from my kitchen ceiling? what a masterpiece...

anyone who knows me knows that I have been trapped in a decorating dilemma for a long time, wanting to paint my apt, but unable to choose colors for fear that I will be living a sea of purple passion or ghastly green for years to come. so the fact that I have a fork suspended from the ceiling as one of the LONE decorative items in my house is really sick Posted by Hello


Paulie, has a lot on his plate, right now, oh by the way ol' chap, when we're back in the States, let's go this time to J. n Lloyd, across the street, pretty much, from Richard Yees, and if we hook up with Marie, Adelman's on Kings Highway, if we're in Queens with the Kings and Queens, how about Ben's, or did we have that last night in the City, on 38th Street? So sorry to let you in on this, but, the corner deli on U and Ocean is a Russian Pharmacy, where you can get a lot of drugs, legally, this time, next to Pupp City, or is it a Cellular Phone place, I forget, hey, ol' chap, do you remember Izzy and Nat, Corned Beef Corner, Grabstein's ? And Mr. Wilbur, mate, if you're reading this, Do you still think, Sparky's Funny? - not Anderson or Lyle, U know what I'm talking about, do you think we can say Greita Weitz and Diarehha, and people will know, what we're talking about, how about covering, Benji's Song, Hey Charlette, Introvert, ah, yes, the Y, Grossman on Keys, OTB on U, Richie losing all his parents money on the Horses and then marrying a SHIXER - this will clue you in regarding Creation, I take some exception to the STARVED of success bit:

When The Creation split up after a career starved of success and recognition, the group members no doubt expected to fade slowly into obscurity. However, interest in the band was piqued when record industry entrepreneur Alan McGee formed a fledgling record label and named it "Creation" after the band. As the label gained success and notoriety, so did interest in the group that gave Creation its name. In the 1990s the band reformed for a series of shows, and with their popularity scaling heights never previously thought possible, they completed a highly successful tour. This release offers a show from the Mean Fiddler in London, as well as interviews from the rightly venerated and overjoyed band members. Posted by Hello


Putz, ask your readers, for their top five Brooklyn Delicatessens, or any top five delicatessens in the F-n country, including Corky and Lenny's in Cleveland, and for God's sake, say thank you Marie, and remember these couple of things, I tried to teach you when you thought you could play Baseball: Es ken zein harb, oich di reichsteh arb, Es iz leichter bei andereh chesroines tsu gefinen vi bei zich meiles.

Ain't that right, mates, Martin, Brinsley, Andrew, Stephan, Rob, not pictured, before anyone else gets hurt and they, this time, close this Music Consumer gone Amok, Nonkinsense thing down, give us either your favorite living guitar players that you've seen in concert, or best band you saw behind an individual artist...And after you do that, give 'em your top five cold and cough remedies for colds that last longer than three days, and top five ways to get out of a Rock n Roll Band, that seems to be at the top of its game, about to hit big, and then five top ways to say to a friend or relative, I'm sorry, for whatever, I did or did not do, I'm really just trying stuff out here, for a couple of laughs, shits and giggles, no more , no less, or the top five ways, you should know you've become an embarrassment, nusiancesense, pest, exploiter, self indulgent, self promoter, obnoxious a-hole, un-Christian, un-Judaic-Christian, un-any religious affiliation, with an axe to grind and a blog.Posted by Hello

Dave Edmunds, we love at Nonkinsense, it's as Subtle as a Flying Mallet, for a long, long time, why not record and perform this Arch Hall, Jr. song, before Junior Brown gets a hold of it: Nobody Lives on the Brownsville Road

At the old rock house on the Brownsville Road, the crazy things happen according to the code.

You turn to the left at the sign of the toad... to the empty old house on the Brownsville Road.

The old rock house on the Brownsville Road, crazy things happen according to the code.

The code of the ghost at the sign of the toad... nobody lives on the Brownsville Road.

Oh, they scream and they sway and they bring in the day and the wind sounds make you shiver.

They dance and they sing 'til the wild ones ring and the noise goes down to the river.

You see, no one lives on the Brownsville Road.

They grin and rave of the cool, cool grave and they do the razzamatazz.

Their neckbones click as they swing their chicks... a'rockin' to the Brownsville jaaaaazz.

At the old rock house on the Brownsville Road, crazy things happen according to the code.

The code of the ghost at the sign of the toad... nobody lives on the Brownsville Road.

Like, nobody lives there... DIG?


Arch Hall Jr, sorry I missed you in New Orleans, this song, says it all: Vickie

I love you, Vickie. You know I do.

My whole life has changed. For the first day we met was my last day with you.

Vickie, oh-ho Vickie... what have I done?

Why can't we make up? We could ha-haaave so much fun.

If you don't love me, I was a foo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ool.

Oh, Vickie... you aah-are my love.



Vickie, oh-ho Vickie... I'm so alone.

If you would just talk to me, if I could just call you... on the phone.

Would you give one more cha-aaa-ance to a foo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ool?

Oh Vickie, you aah-are my love.

You aah-are my love.

Vickie, you are my love.


PURE BRILLIANCE. Whenever you're in town again, look up eegah.com The master storyteller at work as he describes a love-at-first-sight experience although it's a one-sided whirlwind romance that quickly disintegrates into a horrible stalker situation... all during the course of a single day. The lyrics also imply that a restraining order was issued Posted by Hello
