I'm posting this here because it would be very fitting for this room in general.

I was making a Jazz/Blues disc for myself yesterday & I think I came across the perfect Theme Song for the Lounge, but I don't know how I'd post it? Only because I have it (mp3 format) saved to a folder of mine.....

I'd like to share and see what you guys/gals thing, but don't know how I'd go about putting it up? Any ideas? [huh]

You could just tell us the title and artist?
Or try Megaupload or Rapidshare. Non-member files last a limited time on there, though, so I think the first method would be best, especially if there are still legal limitations on the song.

Hey Bolty, I would suggest standing on your tippy toes an put it up on the highest shelf you can reach. That way those of us that are taller would have an advantage in acquiring said tunes before others could break out their step stools, ladders or stilts for those that have them.

The penumbrae of the grace notes disregarded

Perhaps he means Charles Mingus' "Goodbye Porkpie Hat".

I would suppose not, he doesn't seem the sort to make so morose, if not inappropriate, a suggestion. Incidentally, it is an excellent song that I highly recommend that you listen to.

Kinda surprised it's not "My Green Fedora", but since it's likely jazz, I say either "Powerhouse" or something earlier, like "Maple Leaf Rag".


I swear, though, if it's "You can leave your hat on", my reaction will be less than cordial.
 
Style
(lyrics)

Some people dress 'cause they like to get dressed,
But he gets dressed to get dressed.
(It's only a hunch but I bet you a bunch)
(He wears suspenders, a belt and a vest,)
[From the tip of his toes to his head,]
[He looks like an unmade bed.]

You've either got or you haven't got style.
(If you got it, you stand out a mile.)
A flower's not a flower if it's wilted,
(A hat's not a hat till it's tilted.)
[You either got or you haven't got class.]
[How it draws the applause of the masses.]


(You either got, or you haven't got,)
[Got or you haven't got,] ,

You've either got or you haven't got style, (got or you haven't got style).
[If you got it, it stands out a mile,] (if you got it, it stands out a mile.).
With mother of pearl kind of buttons,
(You look like the Astors and Huttons.)
[You either got or you haven't got class,] (got or you haven't got class.)
How it draws the applause of the masses.


(You've either got, or you haven't style) [got or you haven't got style}
(Style and charm seem to go arm in arm,) [seem togo arm in arm.].
[A flower's not a flower] (if it's wilted,)
[A hat's not a hat till it's tilted.]
(You've either got or you haven't got style,) [got or you haven't got style,]
[If you got it, you stands out a mile,] if you got it, you stand out a mile
(Got it you stand out,) got it you stand out a mile.


You've either got or you haven't got, (got or you haven't got,)
[Got or you haven't got,]

Come on , get some clothes on, we're gonna be late for breakfast.

;) :D

(Goodbye Porkpie Hat)

-----------------------------------------------------

My nominee would be from the movie
The 5000 Fingers of Dr. T:

Come on and dress me, dress me, dress me in my finest array
‘Cause just in case you haven’t heard, today is doe-me-doe day!
Dress me in my silver garters, dress me in my diamond studs
‘Cause I’m going doe-me-doing in my doe-me-doe duds!

I want my undulating undies with the maribou frills
I want by beautiful bolero with the porcupine quills
I want my purple nylon girdle with the orange-blossom buds
‘Cause I’m going doe-me-doing in my doe-me-doe duds!

Come on and dress me, dress me, dress me in my peek-a-boo blouse
With the lovely inner lining made of Chesapeake mouse
I want my polka-dotted dickie with the crinoline fringe
For I’m going doe-me-doing on a doe-me-doe binge!

I want my lavender spats, and in addition to them
I want my honey-colored corset with the herringbone hem
I want my softest little jacket made of watermelon suede
I want my long persimmon placket with the platinum braid
I want my leg-of-mutton sleeves, and in addition to those
I want my cutie chamois booties with the leopard-skin bows
I want my pink brocaded bodice with the floofy, fuzzy ruffs
And my gorgeous bright-blue bloomers with the monkey-feather cuffs
I want my organdy snood, and in addition to that
I want my chiffon Mother Hubbard lined with Hudson Bay rat
Dress me up from top to bottom, dress me up from tip to toe
Dress me up in silk and spinach, for today is my doe-me-doe day!

So come and dress me in the blossoms of a million pink trees
Come on and dress me up in liverwurst and camembert cheese
Dress me up in pretzels, dress me up in bock-beer suds
‘Cause I’m going doe-me-doing in my doe-me-doe duds!

Ooh that's a good one too. :D
Sorry to disappoint guys, but it's a bit Jazz fusion, from the 80's.
Billy Cobham/George Duke. I'm gonna check out that link to see if I can post it here first.
