You get to see the nicest places with the Air Force.    My dad was in the Army during Vietnam. Luckily, he was stationed in the dense jungles of West Germany.  Must've been rough.

My friend's dad was stationed in Germany too. The German phrase I hear him reminisce about the most? "Eins bier, bitte."

Yeah, my dad liked the show off all the Deutsch he picked up. Pass the milch, bitte? Wow, you're like a walking German dictionary. Danke schoen.

My Father-in-Law was Air Force also(My father was Royal Navy in WWII and by  the 60s in the Merchant Navy) , he was in Okinawa during Nam, he can still speak relatively accurately accented Japanese. Taking him to a Hibachi place is always fun, he has slightly less than fluent but A for effort conversations with the chef.

For a while I thought the beginning of the Stones' "Gimme Shelter" would be good,

That music actually has a stong emotional connection for me and Andy,  - and now he uses it as the ringtone on his phone for my calls

Maybe "Sympathy for the Devil" because it says "Let me introduce myself" haha, or "Gimme and Intro" by Ugly Duckling.

[Tripe]

Both of these have nice walk-in music potential

Sandra Bernhard has a cover of it, as well, if you're worried about people thinking you sound like Mick Jagger.

There's always the GNR version - quite possible the worst cover of a classic rock song EVER.

And it was recorded for such a good filum

Well, clearly you've never heard Limp Bizkit's version of "Behind Blue Eyes." I seethe just thinking about it.

[Tripe]

I loath the way he misses out the complex bit in the middle and just moan "eh-yay eh-yay"

He can take that cover and stick up his HEY! Stick it up his HEY!

[gbeenie]

 

[Tripe]

I should point out that by "complex" I mean the tempo changes a bit  and there is a chord change.

Which for Freddie tree fingers is a bit too much.

[gbeenie]

Don't forget that he WROTE A THIRD VERSE!  Grrrrrr.....

[Tripe]

I had, but now you reminded me, thanks!!!
