Titolo: Bambi, let me introduce you to Lady Ann ;-)))

Lady Jane
(Jagger/Richard)
My Sweet Lady Jane
When I see you again
Your servant am I
and will humbly remain
just heed this plea, my love
on bended knee, my love
I pledge myself to lady Jane
*my Dear Lady Ann*
I've done what I can
I must take my leave
for promised I am
the play is run, my love
your time has come, my love
I pledge my soul to lady Jane
Oh my sweet Marie
I wait at your ease
The sands have run out
For your lady and me
when love is high, my love
wedlock is nigh, my love
life is secure with lady Jane

 I've done what I can[......]
Dear SE,
Thank you kindly for fully satisfying my curiosity. As I mentioned I was not
overly familiar with this track. Upon receipt of  these lyrics, I ventured
forth and listened to an MP3 of the song for a more detailed appreciation.
I should be interested in hearing what the Lady Ann of our Court has to say,
for not only is she our Privy Councillor, but also our resident die-hard
rockette.
Again, my thanks.

Before you buy.

 Can we have "As Tears Go By" next?
As Tears Go By (Jagger/Richards 1966)
It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Smiling faces I can see
But not for me
I sit and watch
As tears go by
My riches can't buy everything
I want to hear the children sing
All I hear is the sound
Of rain falling on the ground
I sit and watch
As tears go by
It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Doin' things I used to do
They think are new
I sit and watch
As tears go by
Anna (fool to cry)

 rockette.
Grazie per avermi ancora una volta chiamata in causa, Bambi cara e gentile.
Ora, per non dilungarmi e tediarvi, dirň soltanto (nella mia lingua, scusate
la pigrizia di stamattina) che gli Stones sono stati per me i piů
importanti, e perciň continuano a esserlo. Gli Stones, e poi naturalmente i
Beatles, e gli Who, e Van Morrison, e Bob Dylan, e i Jefferson Airplane, e
Neil Young, e Brian Wilson, e Crosby, Stills & Nash, e i Faces, e gli
Yardbirds, e i Cream, e i Traffic...
Eccetera. Quanto a Lady Jane, non č tra le mie favorite. E' comunque una di
quelle in cui ascoltare la voce di quella vecchia scimmia di Mick
costituisce un piacere del tutto particolare e non descrivibile in termini
del tutto acconci per una signorina...
Baci
Anna

Buon gusto. Vuoi danzare?

Volentieri! Se te la senti possiamo provare questa...
HIP SHAKE
(J. Moore)
I wanna tell you 'bout a dance
That's goin' around,
Everybody's doin' it
From the grownups down.
Don't move your head,
Don't move your hands,
Don't move your lips,
Just shake your hips.
Do the hip shake, babe,
Do the hip shake, babe,
Shake your hip, babe,
Shake your hip, babe.
What you don't know
Don't be afraid
Just listen to me
And do what I say.
Don't move your head,
Don't move your hands,
Don't move your lips,
Just shake your hips.
Do the hip shake, babe,
Do the hip shake, babe,
Shake your hip, babe,
Shake your hip, babe,
Well ain't that easy
Well, I met a little girl
In a country town
She said, "What do you know
There's Slim Harpo!"
Didn't move her head,
Didn't move her hands,
Didn't move her lips,
Just shook her hips.
Do the hip shake, babe,
Do the hip shake, babe,
Shake your hip, babe,
Shake your hip, babe,
Well ain't that easy.
Ciao

 As tears go by
Anna, thank you!  Isn't it a beautiful song?
Bye

 (J. Moore)
Wow.
Dopo due minuti e cinquantanove secondi di scuotere i fianchi al tempo di questa
canzone posso dire soltanto "I just don't have that much jazz!" Non preferisci
le machine come qualche ragazza italiana?

PS: For future reference, I usually only need a line or two of a Rolling Stones
song to identify it. ;-)

Anna,
Perhaps you're not the Stones afficianado that I thought you were. Do you  need
more direct references to identify the song? ;-)
Ciao,

Uh-oh, č solo che ho poco tempo, scusa il ritardo, eccomi qui: Some Girls!

Ciao

Dear Lady Ann,
This might almost sound as if you were under some form of deadline, similar,
for example to a situation wherein you might be preparing to leave to go on
holiday.  Just a hunch, you know how these things go. Feminine intuition, if
you like.

Got it in one. ;-)

Uhm... "in one"?
You mean there's another one?
Sorry, I don't get it this time  :-(
Puzzled*

(* questa l'ho fregata a Sal...)

 Feminine intuition, if you like.
LOL
My Royal Highness... It looks like you got feminine intuition galore.
Must be the season of the witch :-)
Anna

 Sorry, I don't get it this time  :-(
Sorry, it's a British expression. It means "in one attempt," or "on the first
try." Regional expressions interest me and I sometimes use them even when
they're from regions foreign to me. So, you'd think I'd have an easier time with
Italian dialects. Maronna!!
