J.S. Bach. That's all ye need on earth, and all ye need to know.

NP, you're not following directions, dear. :)

Woot! Jackie, you pwn girl!
Off to read!

*demands more Gould clips from NP*

Oh, fun, Jackie! *loves*

*off to find suitable video*

Jackie, what an awesome idea! I flove your choice!
Now I just have to think of mine!

Jackie, if you really want me to do something, the best way is to tell me to do something opposite.

jewell, don't think there's any more that I haven't posted yet. Will check.

Aw, Emma. *blushes*

Will be very interested to see what TWibe will pick?

Jackie,
Good topic as TW has been slow this week and there is NO tennis on TV in the USA this weekend. Livestream is the way to go and see action this week.

And remember to check out everyone's submissions!

BTW, Jackie, YouTube URLs are short enough to fit in the comment box. U still want us to use TinyURL?

Emma, we need to credit Pete for the idea. :) But I'm glad you're into this - and that you enjoyed my choice! Man, was it hard to pick just one.

Good point, NP. That should be fine.

Jackie Thank goodness for you

I was being picked on? on the other post

Music good for the soul amen.

Gotcha, Jackie.

Here's my pick. The music starts shortly after the 5:00 mark:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tt-vdBYeU3A

Well in that case Jax, make sure to tell Pedro I think it was a genius choice.
I'm seriously struggling to pick just one song!

Well, we're going with one per person for now. But you can certainly post others later ...

It's part of the fun, having to whittle down the choices to just one, no?

Miss Jackie

What happens if you cant post your fav song?

What do you mean, aussiemarg? It's not on YouTube?

My pick, and I'll happily apologise for my taste of lack of in advance...;-)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIaehhYLVZA&feature=related

Festival-appropriate. :) There's a bit of chat before the song starts, about a minute I think.

Miss Jackie No its not,I am away from home,I have my lap top at the moment

Well, it's sort of a TW/YouTube Music Festival ... we'll be doing more with YouTube in the future, too.

Can you find a vid that at least features the song, aussiemarg? Or I can do it if you tell me the song?

Pulp makes pulp fiction anti-pulpy by comparison.

you're my honey bunch - sugar plum ... pumpy-umpy-umpkin
you're my sweety pie !

I love this song, and the live rendition of the actual kid singing it ... and her mum and dad encouraging her

i love the way she flawlessly says 'Snoogums-Boogums'

I still cant say it for cryin out loud mate

TGIF -

My contribution - 'Cuppy-Cake Song'
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12Z6pWhM6TA

Miss Jackie I will just tell you the song ok

Stairway To Heaven ---- Led Zepplin.

Hi Jackie.
Now that's a topic. I will have to take this into serious consideration, and add the factor that my first choice would very probably be in Spanish, but i think there are several good options in English.
By the way, love your pick. If you ask me, better than the original. The guy reading the lyrics from his mobile makes it hilarious. "Hey, let's sing this, just because we can, but i have no idea of the lyrics, so i'll just do some karaoke from my mobile phone"

This is fun as usual. So many to choose from! Here is my pick for Friday night fun though:

http://tinyurl.com/hy9yh

Ah, aussiemarg, I'll find it for you. :) Good choice, by the by.

THERES a ladyyyyy whos old -- shes sure all that glitters is gold ...

tra laaaa laaa laaa

you rock Marg !

hi jackie - been a while, i was told you tweet - how can i find ya ?

Hm...copyright restrictions.

Anyway - will catch up in the morning, bedtime for me. Night, everyone. :)

for Marg - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81eSIwsLcWg

NP, LMAO. Nice.

Here's mine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5J3gX47rHGg

Hi Jackie, brilliant post and excellent idea. Unfortunately the powers that be (real corporate types) have banned youtube, twitter, facebook etc from work so cannot load my wonderful favourite youtube video of reggae gone wild, but will do that when I get home this evening.

Didn't get a chance to preview. I'm hoping this is decent quality.

Here's aussiemarg's pick!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kNEo8OxrT8

Emma - love your pick!

*really gone*

wat are the chances we found EXACTLY the same video outta million videos in u-tube Jackie ?

Leytsie Hi,good to see you here,thanks for that

I saw Led Zepplin live

Robert Plant can take me to heaven anytime he likes lol!

He is the Sex Rock God of the Universe as far as I am concerned.

Emma, but it's an awesome MV. Seriously, the closing music is pretty cool.

Am, Stairway to Heaven was on my shortlist, excellent choice!
rafadoc, I flove that song, but I flove the vid more! Awesome!

Okay, I watched Pete's and Jackie's-both "favorites" now. Off to watch more.

(this may make me neurotic because I will have to watch every video which could be a titch time consuming-OCD much?-lol)...wine will help.

Miss Jackie Thanks for that.Sorry i have all my songs on my other computer back home.

Mr.X, Spanish is just fine! We need to broaden our horizons, anyhow. :) And isn't the OneRepublic vid great? Love that they just learned it the night before and insisted on performing it anyway!

Lleytsie, just look up my full name. No spaces. You'll see me. :)

rafadoc, great choice! Hilarious vid.

rafadoc, that's the point! We should *all* be checking out everyone else's choices!

LOL, Lleytsie. Cosmic connection.

G'night, jewell! I hope I'm still here when you return. :(

Pretty hard to pick just one, but I saw this guy in concert a while back and he's pretty great.
http://tinyurl.com/d9xrlm

jackie - i dont know your full name .... can you email me ?

lleyton_blue@yah

Ray Davies is a better lyricist than Paul & John--wittier, and more biting--but the Fab Two were better tunesmiths.

Lleytsie, scroll up. By-line. :)

Well, personally i'm checking other's choices. This is gonna be some night. AM's is my favourite so far.
So Spanish is right? Then i have absolutely nothing to consider. It's a no-contest. Back in a while after i find it.

Thanks Jackie. :)

Jewell: That Pulp vid was really cool (I am going to run out of adjectives...lol)

Emma: Me too...the video makes it!

Mr.X, Spanish is more than all right. :)

Y'know, I wonder if I should do a separate DC for music videos. Like, actual music videos ...

Or we'll just wait and see how the evening progresses. 'Cause I have plenty to share. :)

Well I was going to pick my other all time fav song from Leonard Cohen who I saw live again this year

He is brillant,yes still incredible at age 74.

Well, here it goes, then. I would have liked to find a clip from a live concert, but there wasnt a good one i could find, so i go with the original videoclip.
The first song i heard in a live concert, 1999. I dont think i'll ever forget that night.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMHcqBDUz9o&feature=related

Well, I'll beat Cayman Karen to it with the reggae touch. The song I'm posting has always been a favorite of mine; and coincidentallly, it was the first song on a mix of 33 songs put together by a fellow commenter on my old tennis forum (NYT). He solicited suggestions from all the other commenters and compiled the mix which remains one of my favorite CD's. (My suggestion/contribution was Cassandra Wilson's Time After Time; I was listening to her a lot at the time.)

Anyway, here it is. Eat your heart out, Karen! LOL

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8onbDZmAwhE

I'm heading to Jamaica at 7:30 am tomorrow for a mini-family reunion, and I'm definitely taking my NYT Tennis form CD for my airplane and beach and poolside listening.

Awwwww. That cuppycake song is totally adorable. AND a perfect contrast to the Stairway to Heaven video. Flove that one AM. Great choice.

NP, I watched your vid. Really was a great choice, but TBH, the best bit about it was the shot @ 0:20. Unreal!!!
This was such a great topic, thanks a mill Jax and Pedro!

Mr X I am soo in love with the Spainish accent,it sounds soo sexy

I think I have fallen in love with that guy on guitar already lol!

Note: I can't check out any of these vids until I leave the office (not happening for about an hour or so :(), which is why I'm not offering any reactions. My bad! I'll try to catch up once I'm home!

TW + Music = Happiness.

Yah, Emma, that diving volley was even better than the one against Agassi in the '99 final. Glad you enjoyed it.

Mr. X, I really loved your choice. Possibly my fave so far.

jackie - thanks for always giving us something to laugh about ;-)

uhmmm... I probably am one of the most boring people here but I do like the "storm is over" video even if I have issues with Robert Kelly ;-) And I like this Yolanda Adams version of I believe I can fly :)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9dcJ1EDcyE&feature=related

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBPBfNlCHio - Y Adams

Mr. X: That song was great...nice bluesy vibe. Loved the roof top performance.

Gotta run for a while...be back later.

The accent reminds me our our boy,sniff.

Great topic Jackie!!! I'm a YouTube addict, so I'll look forward to all your YouTube-related Deuce Club topics.

Here's mine. When I'm at a party or any social gathering, I'm reeeally picky when it comes to songs I will dance to. But this ALWAYS gets me out of my seat to get my groove on:

YMCA from the Village People!

http://tinyurl.com/3kxflq

This song, the Chicken Dance, the Macarena, the Electric Slide, I love dancing to all of these =). Just to prove I'm not a total dork, I also like to Crank That from Soulja Boy.

There is a highland Park in/near Chicago?

Avid In your current state,I would have gone for

"Cimb Every Mountain" from the Sound Of Music.

"Avid In your current state,I would have gone for

"Cimb Every Mountain" from the Sound Of Music."

Aussiemarg - ROFL!

AM and Emma,
That song catapulted the group into stardom here in Spain. The thing is, they havent been able to deliver a similar one after that, at least in my opinion. Many of their other songs sound too similar to me.
By the way, AM, that was some pick. Obviously, a safe bet:)

Fun Fun Jackie!!

Ok so here's mine. Kings of Leon - King of the Rodeo from Lowlands 2007. Partly because lead singer Caleb gets mad at his brother Jared for messing up the bass line at the beginning of the song. haha check out his dirty look. Plus this performance is great - actually all their live performances are great.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9YQjCQq9Ek

And umm I'll be back later because I have another. :)

"Avid In your current state,I would have gone for

"Climb Every Mountain" from the Sound Of Music."

*Lucozade all over laptop screen*
Am, I flove you. That was win.

Ruth, Marley has never moved me to vertiginous heights, but agree "One Love" is one of his best songs. BTW I also quite like the version Abijah did for the Jamaica Tourist Board ad. I'm sure most Yanks have seen it:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALnPXZpyMFU

Mr X That is one of my all time fav songs

I have seen Led Zepplin live,when they did that song a long version by the way the whole crowd just went off

Robert Plant what can I say

Rock God of the Music world.Amen.

"Just to prove I'm not a total dork, I also like to Crank That from Soulja Boy."
tennisesq. LMAO!

tennisesq.,
Those guys are just too funny. By the way, your post has some "guilty pleasures" tone. And i believe we all have those kinds of songs that are a little absurd, but just enjoy a lot. I know i do.
AY, MACARENA, AAAAAYYY!

ha ha - cheers ....Jack

Tennisq Yes I just love that song

Great beat and wonderful to dance to.

Uh, people, you do know what "YMCA" is really about, right?

Glad you approve, NP.

I decided to post the youtube video with the song and just the picture of Marley instead of a video with one the live performances of the song because I think that the song is better appreciated by non-Marley fans without Marley's accompanying "commentary," bless his dear departed heart. :)

"without Marley's accompanying "commentary,""

Ruth - LOL! BTW I love me some Marley songs too ;-) and have a safe flight and a great trip!

who found the picture for this article

there is a 'wolverine' with a michigan tee in the third row

any one see that ?

"Uh, people, you do know what "YMCA" is really about, right?"
Yeah, NP. But it's hard not to get a chuckle out of those guys and their costumes.

NP I could picture you in one of those costumes

I have a vivid imagination

Great picks twibers. I have to go with the classic:

Ruth, with you on the "commentary" being a detracting factor.

Since we're in a reggae mood, here's some Lovers rock from Beres Hammond:

"They Gonna Talk" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7UD5QQ4X5i0
"Rockaway" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cl6bh43ugEs

FYI, both songs are from his _Music Is Life_ album.

HA. "Snoop Doggy Dogg? You need to get a Snoop Jobby Job!"

ptenisnet, yep, Highland Park is a suburb of Chicago. Really lovely area. MJ lived there, I think?

BlueDog, you can never go wrong with The Who. Pure pwnage!

BlueDog Wowser!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

avid: I got goosebumps just reading that you were posting the link to Yolanda Adams' "I Believe I Can Fly." That is some performance, isn't it? Now, I'll go watch the video -- again. :)

Mr. X, agreed. Just wondering.

AM, and I'm sure you could also guess which one.

I am loving this by the way

One of your best ever

I just love music,have it on all day and night.
