Dear Friends and Schoolmates,
Today's theme is another first for us here:
BONUS - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3wdMu8Mvhc - Here I Go Again - Whitesnake - "one of the most famous 80's music video in HD"
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Here_I_Go_Again:
"Here I Go Again" is a song recorded by Whitesnake...
The song was written by lead singer, David Coverdale, and former Whitesnake guitarist, Bernie Marsden. The most notable differences between the original and revamped version are the style of the music (blues-rock versus hard rock) and a slight change in the lyrics. The chorus of the original version features the lines:
Whereas the newer version is:
Whitesnake's Here I go again was featured as one of the greatest songs of the 80's on VH1.

One tough marine. Thought
you might like this one, my beautiful lady..... Watch full screen This short video speaks volumes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gfnmDGk0KM&feature=related 3,000 vets on motorcycles from across the USA paraded in D.C. the Sunday before Memorial Day, while a solitary, saluting Marine greeted them out on Constitution Avenue... The Marine stood at salute for 3 straight hours, while the parade of roaring bikes kept on coming.... Rolling Thunder is held in remembrance of those who've fallen in the military.... the event (or the group) is called Rolling Thunder. George Bush used to meet these bikers before they paraded..... The camera is on the Marine a lot... watch his struggles with his emotions, and his struggles with holding that salute. The way he salutes is very touching... his head lowered, his eyes down, in reverence for the fallen... I am an ex-Marine sergeant, and I know what he was feeling... and as I watched him, I could feel it too.... it got to be overwhelming for him... and the tears started flowing... Watch what he says when he finally breaks, but keeps right on holding that salute. WOWZERONI! Thanks, Dools! ![]() |

From Bonnie Loughran Marshall (Hampton HS - '65) of MN - 06/26/10, 1:39 AM -
"Reminiscing":
Hi Carol...was reminiscing and wondering if anyone remembers
the 1963-64 TV show 'Hootenanny Saturday Night'? If anyone
might recall...the 'folk-fest' went to different colleges
and taped the shows and aired them soon thereafter. There
were two tapings at the College of William and Mary...not
sure of the exact dates of the actual events, but they were
aired on 4/11/64 and 4/25/64. My older sister Valerie was
attending William and Mary at the time and she, myself and
another friend went to the first show. Not sure if we were
in a gymnasium but our seats were the 'floor'...and the
cameras were rolling. At one point, during a performance of
"Green Fields" by the Brothers Four, everyone around us was
snickering that the cameras were on our section. As it
happened, when we watched the aired show, I somehow managed
to escape the cutting room floor...and my face was plastered
on the screen for about 10 seconds. I believe I've since
seen clips from the second W&M show but not from the one I
attended. Note
below are the performances of the show I attended:
College of William and Mary, Williamsburg VA #1: http://www.tv.com/hootenanny/college-of-william-and-mary-williamsburg-va-1/episode/146564/summary.html?tag=ep_guide;summaryThe Brothers Four: "Green Fields," "The
Ox-Driver's Song," "Beautiful Brown Eyes," "Beans Taste
Fine"

Whitesnake, 1982
I don't know where I'm goin
but I sure know where I've been
hanging on the promises in songs of yesterday.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time
but here I go again, here I go again.
Tho' I keep searching for an answer
I never seem to find what I'm looking for.
Oh Lord, I pray you give me strength to carry on
'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.
Here I go again on my own
goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time.
Just another heart in need of rescue
waiting on love's sweet charity
an' I'm gonna hold on for the rest of my days
'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.
Here I go again on my own
goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a hobo I was born to walk alone.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time
but here I go again, here I go again,
here I go again, here I go.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time.
Here I go again on my own
goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone
'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.
Here I go again on my own
goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time
but here I go again, here I go again,
here I go again, here I go,
here I go again
