PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Theme Song" |
Isn't it about time we had a proper tune for BlowsVivor? Something which would suitably depict this jamboree? Ayak had 'The Flame' by Fine Young Cannibals in his review episode (not pertinent but Cheap Trick also had a song by the same name) but we need something for all seasons. Go ahead. Make a submission. Somebody must know a song that fits.
In the meantime, I present this for consideration. It just feels appropriate. And if you know who sang it, I'll buy you a pint of your choosing. So we maybe gorgeous,
So we maybe famous,
Come back when we're getting old. Cover us in chocolate,
Send us to the neighbours
Frame us in a video. Clone us in a test tube,
Sell us to the multitude
Guess that's the price of fame. She likes the black one,
He likes the posh one,
Cute ones are usually gay. Here we come, this is our destiny calling
We're freaks, this is our destiny calling
Unique, this is our destiny calling now. Don't believe the adverts
Don't believe the experts
Everyone will sell our souls. Get a little wiser
Get a little humble
Now we know that we don't know. Tell us when our time's up
Show us how to die well
Show us how to let it all go Here we come, this is our destiny calling
We're freaks, this is our destiny calling
Unique, this is our destiny calling now. So fat cats playing roulette with lives
This game is fixed
It's all a lie So fat cats playing roulette with lives
This time is curved
There's no straight lines So fat cats playing roulette with lives
Forget myself
We're all entwined
There's no straight lines. Here we come, this is our destiny calling
We're freaks, this is our destiny calling
Unique, this is our destiny calling now. {repeat x 2} This is our destiny calling.
Destiny calling.
Now.
NOW.

There's no straight lines. This is pretty much perfect, GG, and I don't know who does the song, but AK will. I think the BV whores are getting a bit above themselves though if they think they have a "Destiny" unless destiny means the scrap heap of the 15 minutes loser parade...

2. ""Destiny Calling" by James" |
GG, I think the only song of theirs that made much of an impact in the States was "Laid," but this is "Destiny Calling" by James. I've always liked good pop-rock....

3. "Bravo 'ol chap!" |
But of course you are right Ayak. Let me know what your favorite tipple is - I don't peg you as a lager or pilsner man, more the bitter/ale type guy, the latter of which should of course be served at room temperature. It's hard to get round that concept, I know. James are actually a very underrated band who have done the rounds for well over a decade and a half. Their brand of pop rock never managed to penetrate the mass audience domestically, let alone in the US. Maybe some time in the future I will try and persuade the great and the good of this board to give them a try. I should also say: I don't know why you're omniscient. I do know that when I grow up, I want to be like you. That is, if I'm not reincarated first. The same would still apply. And to both you and OFG: you were *ahem* meant to come up with a appropriate them song. Surely you know one? And, yes, when that happens, I'll stop calling you Shirley. ¬GG¬

4. "Theme Song" |
GG, if I didn't start racking my brains for a theme song, it's because I already did one on AK's thread, but if I get another DAW out of it, here are my lyrics:"That Song About the Midway" Joni Mitchell, ad. by OFG I met him on the Midway
with his show incomplete...
And he stood out just like rubies
On a Kansas girl's feet He was playing on the whorses,
he was playing with pulling strings
He was playing like some devil wearing wings
Wearing wi(n)gs He looked so grand wearing wi(n)gs
Did he tape all those auditions for Ka-ching? Did he fly I heard he did! Did he fly?
Like a rhino was doin' some hunting from the sky I followed with the sideshows
Down in L.A. town
And I found him in a trailer
On the Shakesvivor grounds He was betting on some Love Cruise
He was Shaking up the dice
And I thought I saw him cheating
Once or twice...
Was he wondering was the gamble worth the price? Pack it in, I heard he did, pack it in
Was it hard to fold a hand he knew could win? Lately he's been hiding
It was somewhere in the news
And I'm still on BlowsVivor
With my contract and my blues A voice calls out the numbers
And it sometime mentions mine (#9, #9)
And I feel like I've been working overtime.
Overtime, I'm getting tired, overtime,
Always playing one more challenge
for more face time Slowing down I'm gettin tired slowing down
And I envy him his hideout that he's found
Cause I'm midway down the midway, coming down
Coming down... There, I just learned how to do italics, v.g.

7. "RE: Theme Song" |
Continuing to ponder (although your song is perfect but you WOULD egg us on to propose others):
and I keep thinking of the Doors for this steamy stoned-out LA show. Trouble is only the titles work, not the lyrics:Light My Fire
Break On Through to the Other Side
Strange Days
Twentieth Century Fox
We Could Be So Good Together
Five To One
Whores Lassitudes (I mean Horse Lattitudes) Or maybe some Jimmy Cliff for a more trials and tribulation feel:
The Harder They Come
Many Rivers to Cross
Sufferin in the Land
You Can Get it if You Really Want
Sitting in Limbo Well, to add some lyrics to this plethora of titles--here's a verse by none of the above. I heard one of the Blowsvivor's singing it around the campfire: I wish I was on some Australian mountain range
well I wish I was on some Australian mountain range
I got no reason to be there
But I imagine it would be some kind of change!

9. "RE: Theme Song" |
A belated BUMP for this thresd, as I finally got around to co-opting the talents of boomer for a theme song. Unfortunately, he hasn't had the presence of mind to follow BV (a-hem. . .), so he's confused us with that "other" show, set in the Outback. . . But I am SO impressed he followed through on my request, and I'm sure it deserves to be included here, for posterity!>Well, GT, having not kept up on the BV circus, I don't feel that I could
>do a proper song. But for some reason America's "Horse With no Name" kept
>running through my head, so this will have to do for now.
>
>It's All a Game
>
>On the first part of the journey
>I was looking around for strife
>There were plants and roos and rocks and things
>There was dirt and hills and sky
>
>The first thing I saw was a girl with a buzz
>And a place with no crowds
>The heat was hot and the ground was dry
>But the group was full of sound
>
>chorus:
>You see They've come to the outback for a millionaire game
>It feels good to stay out of the rain
>In the outback, it's hard to stay in the game
>'Cause there's always one there who can make it a pain
>La la la la la la la la la la la
>
>After two days in the outback sun
>Their skin began to turn red
>After three days of Survivor fun
>They were campin' on a river bed
>And the story was told, when the river had flowed
>Made them sad if their rice was dead
>
>They've come to the outback for a millionaire game
>It feels good to stay out of the rain
>In the outback, it's hard to stay in the game

>After nine days they let the girl go free
>'Cause the council declared it to be
>There were plants and roos and rocks and things
>There was dirt and hills and sky
>
>Survivor is a desert, little truth to be found
>A perfect disguise lurks above
>Under the surface, lies some hearts made of stone
>Some of the players will give you no love
