i stole this survery from pajiba!!! one of my favorite websites, that stacy hipped me to...
directly swiped from the website: "You know how you will hear a song today and it will put you back in a particular time and particular place in your past? Well, let’s turn that into a diversion. I will give you a few questions about your history with music, and you give me the song that comes to your mind (my- glittergirl's- largely embarrassing answers will be in parentheses, for example’s sake). If you don’t know or don’t remember, just skip that particular question. Or make up your own. "
1. Your prom theme? (Some bullshit Journey song. This was 1988, and the band was not at the height of popularity! I tried to get a Cure song nominated, but no luck.)
2. Your first album? (Billy Joel's 52nd street, 1978)
3. Your first single? ("Chick-a-Boom" from my Uncle Jimmy. I can remember the words and they involved a "chick in a black biknini" and seemed quite naughty for a 5 year old kid.) see below........
4. The first time you got drunk/stoned? (Pink Floyd's "The Wall" on a house boat in Lake Erie, 14 years old. I remember "Comfortably Numb" playing over and over as I got motion sick on the boat.)
5. Your first relationship? (Berlin, "Take my Breathe Away")
6. Your first break-up? (The Smiths, "Please, Please, Please....")
7. The first song lyrics you consciously memorized (and do you still remember them)? "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" or maybe "The Gambler" (my parents were in their country music phase...) and YES, i remember the lyrics.
8. Song most closely identified with roller/ice skating? (Blondie's "Heart of Glass")
9. The first song that blew your mind? ("Whiter Shade of Pale" by Procol Harum") Heard that as a little kid on the radio and it blew the windmills of my mind. LOL!
10. The song that forever changed your perception of music? (It was the soundtrack to "Pretty in Pink", and specifically hearing The Smiths for the first time.)
god bless the internets!!!
i found info on the "chick-a-boom" song!!!! the artist is "daddy dew drops" and lucky for you i found the lyrics online. enjoy!!!!
Last night I had a crazy dream
About a chick in a black bikini
Oh, she looked so good
She couldn't be real
She must be a magic genie
But then she disappeared around the corner
All I saw were three doors
And the top of her bikini
I made it through the first door
There was a party going on
I asked about the chick
But what they said was freaky
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom
Don't ya jes' love it
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom
Don't you jes' love it
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom
Don't ya jes' love it
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom-boom-boom
I found the bottom half
Behind the second door
Which took me to Africa I presume
This really far out cat
Was screaming half crazy
"Bomp boom a loo bom a long bam boo"
I said, hey man
Cut that jive
And tell me where the chick went
But he looked at me
As pleased as could be
And said these words
But I wonder what he meant
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom
(Mmmmm-aaaah)
Don't ya jes' love it
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom
(Mmmmm-aaaah)
Don't you jes' love it
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom
(Mmmmm-aaaah)
Don't ya jes' love it
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom-boom-boom
Aaaah, don't ya jes' love it
Mmm-hum, don't ya jes' love it
Don't ya love it, don't ya love it
Oh yeah, don't ya love it
Don't ya jes' love it now
I opened the third door and there she was
And she whispered so sexy, hello-ooh
I tried to do the same
And impress her with my style
But why I said this
I'll never know
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom
(Mmmmm-aaaah)
Don't ya jes' love it
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom
(Mmmmm-aaaah)
Don't you jes' love it
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom
(Mmmmm-aaaah)
Don't ya jes' love it
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom-boom-boom
Don't ya know I'll
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom
(Mmmmm-aaaah)
Don't ya jes' love it
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom
(Mmmmm-aaaah)
Don't you jes' love it
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom
(Mmmmm-aaaah)
Don't ya jes' love it
Chick-a-boom-chick-a-boom-boom-boom
