My Mom makes Eggplant for people who don't like Eggplant smile
That's what a new client at the time said upon coming here on a Sunday and catching Mom's famous Eggplant Parm.

It's NEVER bitter, it's as sublime as her meatballs and the whole thing melts in your mouth.
One night I when i was a kid I came in with some friends after a long night of partying lol Well out comes Mom with her tray of eggplant and two loafs of Italian bread. You should have seen the faces of my friends as they were eatin it smile especially the girls smile Mama Mia!



Thanks!
Peace Mike

Sometimes some of the eggplant are set aside with no sauce or anything. Those are the ones I get later and put into a sandwich with Ketchup! smile Delicious hot or cold! Also if you dont have Italian bread then have that on toast with the Ketchup YUMMY!!

Mike smile

Enjoying all the songs guys and gals...

Ya know if you want to learn the ingredients of some great hits songs, sing some and get the feel for it.

Dying for eggplant now, wonder why? smile but since it's a Karaoke Party I'll have to sing for my grub. So I'll be back with a song in TRUE karaoke fashion in moment. I'll try to dig one up...


Thanks!

Here's one in true Karaoke embarrassing fashion I sang for fun, the music was provided by our very own Nightshift for a passed project.

I Write The Songs by Substudio

Personal Note: My piano playing hasn't gotten so poor now that my singing has actually surpassed it on the what I do best list smile


I Write The Songs

I've been alive forever
And I wrote the very first song
I put the words and the melodies together
I am music
And I write the songs

I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs

My home lies deep within you
And I've got my own place in your soul
Now when I look out through your eyes
I'm young again, even tho' I'm very old

I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs

Oh, my music makes you dance and gives you spirit to take a chance
And I wrote some rock 'n roll so you can move
Music fills your heart, well that's a real find place to start
It's from me, it's for you
It's from you, it's for me
It's a worldwide symphony

I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs

I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs

I am music and I write the songs


Thanks!
Peace Mike

Hey, egg plant can be awesome, just needs to be cooked the right way!

And Glyn (et al.), I have a Vietnamese recipe for a spicy batter for pan-frying tasteless flat fish that works real well on tasteless flat vegetables, too--like zucchini and eggplant. I can send it if you like.

@Mike Caro Not a huge Manilow fan either myself but I liked how you sang that one.

@JenWarner Finally got around to listening to your Drops of Jupiter (this week has been crazy with lots going on personally ugh :P) and I really enjoyed it! Well sung and soulful! smile

And thanks to everyone for the compliments on my Duran Duran and Tori karaoke versions. smile

Thanks Ann i enjoyed yours as well.

I never bought a Barry album or saw his show. He did write great pop songs though and many of them. Also can appreciate his vocal after trying to sing this song that keeps changing keys smile

Also this was the only cover Karaoke style I had around. I sing
Jim Croce and Cat Steven style songs a bit better, there in a safer range. smile

Mike

heheheheheh!!! just coming back in... wow YAY you are just taking off without me - sorry I was absentee yesterday/today -- busy busy or out cold! with exciting stuff going on under wraps (not music, FAMILY things) that I can't talk about just yet... but taking me away from the Web which is not always a bad thing - LOL

STILL! YAY to see Mike in here !!!
And just to clarify, it does NOT NEED to be "karaoke style" - it can be ANY OF YOUR OWN SONGS that fit the bill -- UNLESS we're having say a "Led Zeppelin Week" (we're not in the near future!) ... then it would have to be all songs by that artist, era or genre... otherwise ORIGINALS ARE GREAT!! smile

But the rest of that I Write the Songs collab got eaten in Nite's computer, so my addition is gone now too -- glad to see some of all that work got preserved!! cool!

OK I am here - and ready to click away!! grin

Earwigs/Eggplant... LOL again!! awww what a hook... what a profession of love and devotion! smile

@Colin - yeah I'm loving your Blue Island Beer Club songs here and your vocal - nice song and well done!!

more more more.... my ears are hungry! smile off to hear the rest... don't want to lose my typing smile

oh and chat about eggplant or whatever all you like guys!!
Mike - GREAT STORY ... I bet your mama can cook that stuff up just right.
Mine made eggplant parmesan and I still didn't like it much... my neighbor made it and I liked her recipe but didn't ever wanna grow it myself... LOL

ANYWAY it's the song links I need to limit -- chatter is fine and expected!! smile

And the format of replying -- is to keep post count down some mainly... and less confusing to boot -- but chatter is fun! smile

Carry on-- dinnertime -- I'll be right back smile

BTW.... Pie and Honey are among my favorite foods smile so I'm making up some coupons here.... lol

and Glyn took us to 300 posts!

[Linked Image]


Geneva... there is a "Voice -----------*------------- Music" spot on your "review or remix" this recording page... I have screen shots posted in the Party Hotline thread for what you're looking at on that page and how to adjust your vocals by sliding that button back and forth -- but -- I think you mixed "American Pie" nicely -- it sounds like a nice balance to me!!

also since I'm here...
@Geneva -- lovely soft rendition of "If I Die Young" ... very nice... and I'm on American Pie right now (just finished) and you are ROCKIN THIS chickadee!! very good!! WOO!!
ALSO AWESOME on Devil Went Down to Georgia, YEAH!! SING IT! totally great.

Unfortunately however fried chicken is not a particularly favorite food of mine.... heheehe

...Because this is such a TREAT to hear you sing. smile I KNOW you say you do other things better guitar drums etc... but STILL I love the tone in your voice and your phrasing here is just great... gotta say I like you singing' this better than Barry.

And my sister & mum were into his stuff so that's a lot of what my little ears grew up with... can't count how many times I've heard that original... you rocked it awesome!!

Thanks for stopping in!! :-D

ANN


{{Go ahead, laugh. I really DO love raisins!!}}

Something I really love about this whole thing - is I'm hearing songs I never knew! or that I haven't heard in ages... which is super fun. Plus loving hearing your voices... is so cool.
I mean... where else is Sub gonna post that he EVER sang Barry Manilow??!! LOL!! grin
and it DOES stretch us in all sorts of good ways musically... more than you might think at first, huh? smile
And I also LOVE Mike's (Sub) point that how can you write hit songs unless you LISTEN to them and LEARN them and figure out how they work, why you like it, how it all fits together?? Yep Yep Yep another Secret Motive.... aw you found me out. smile

PLUS I JUST GOTTA SAY: YOU ALL ARE BETTER SINGERS than you collectively give yourselves credit for!!!


Keep on SINGING! grin

All-righty - I AM CAUGHT UP!

But... considering it's almost Friday... the OPEN MIC FREEBIE WEEKEND starts in less than 24 hours.... & that some of you have only dropped one song so far... and I just handed out a bunch of bonus coupons grin ...

I'm keeping us at TWO SONGS THIS WEEK. I was just swamped with a lot of other things on my plate before I could get to hear you! (plus the internet out -- aaargh!!)

BUT!
The good news is, next week is already scheduled for 3 songs apiece. Because I think it's gonna be fun. At least - I hope you like it! wink

Thanks for the compliment on Cornflake Girl, Linda! I did the vocal in one take because I know the song so well haha! Fellow Toriphile here. :D:D

I love hearing everybody singing too. I'm finding all sorts of music that I hadn't thought of in a while or had never heard before. Never heard "Tupelo Honey" before this thread and a few others. smile

And oh boy a bonus song! No I actually couldn't tell at all that you like raisins..... hehe tongue smile Got one lined up that I'll work on tomorrow! It's almost midnight here on the East Coast and it's been a loooooooooooooooong day. crazy

Hi Everyone,

I was listening to each song from the beginning a week or two ago and was writing down comments to post about each one (there wasn’t this many songs then). Anyway I got sidetracked and then pneumonia and I lost my list! I remember Linda’s haircut song, that Colin had a song and Jen (who brought me here). Um Glynda had a song now I’m looking back and cheating, lol Joe did pole dancing for Jesus. Anyway they were all very good, hats off to you folks for having the courage to do this, I would have to be drunk and I don’t drink anymore.

Then I got to Mike Caro’s song!!! It was a show stopper!! “I’m like Brooklyn” I listened; I don’t know how many times, Googled him and listened to EVERY song I could find! Wow was that a hit song? If not you should be pitching that song! I had my husband listen, and he didn’t want to, but he loved it too. When I hear a song like that and it’s not on the radio making money I just scratch my head in confusion.

Mike I read that it’s an older song BUT it could easily fit on the radio I don’t care how old it is, some things never change. Am I wrong? Do you think that it’s dated? I’m listening again. I just can’t tell you how great this song is. Here is the thing, when it first starts; the beat is so great that I know right off I’m going to love it! I can only think of one other song right off the top of my head that I felt that way about and the 1st time I heard it, I KNEW it would be a hit. It’s a country song “A little more country than that”. The music told me instantly that it was a great song.

Mike, Mike, Mike this is a hit song if I’ve ever heard one. I know you sing it great but I’m sure there are people that would love to record and perform this song. Maybe it was a hit and I wasn’t listening to the radio or the right channel? Anyway you know better than I do, I really am just plain folks but I had to tell you what I think of this wonderful song!!! And the video, all those guitars I’m green with envy! And you can play all of them. When I watch you I feel like I’ve wasted my whole life! I’m learning guitar now but I don’t have anyone to play with so I’m sure I’m teaching myself bad habits, lol. Sorry I got carried away.

Anyway cheers to all of you and I’ll try to keep caught up on all the new post. smile

Dottie

@Jen I think I commented on your Hungry Eyes song on the SingSnap page, but I'll say it again here: I loved your version of that song! Very well sung! smile

And yay for bonus songs! Here's my bonus tune for the food theme this week. This one references two beverages.

Title: Solsbury HIll
Artist: Peter Gabriel
Link: http://www.reverbnation.com/play_now/song_10600120

This was quick and dirty. I know the song so well so I did it in about two takes. cool One of my favorite Peter Gabriel songs! (You can look him up doing this in concert on YouTube where he's riding a bike around a circular stage while singing the song, very cool. crazy)

Oh, and there's the line "turning water into wine," so that counts! smile

Yes

Ann - One of my favorite Gabriel songs as well. I saw him three times in the 80's
Also my band covered this song, and Biko as well.

I thought the part where you sing "Boom Boom Boom" was very cute! smile



Thanks!
Peace Mike

Hi Ann

I don’t think I’ve had the pleasure to meet you yet or hear you sing! I don’t know this song “Solsbury Hill” but I’m really liking it.

Michael,

I didn’t know you could sing. I enjoyed both of your songs. I’m going to have to check this thread more often!

Glynda,

You sound great in Blue Berry Hill, I love those old songs!

I'm going to try to stay caught up on this thread but there are a lot of songs going up so I don't know, lol.
