Video: Mulder: Half Dead
Title: Mulder: Half Dead
Description: This is an AU (Alternate Universe) video which deals with the question of: What would have become of Mulder had Scully died from her cancer? I know the title may not make sense to people initially, but it actually comes from a line I included in the video. Mulder refers to himself as being half dead to Skinner. He says it very off-handedly so it might be that he is just joking with Skinner, but personally I think it reflects how he feels as he is losing Scully. This past summer, I learned that a woman I knew 10 years ago, died from skin cancer. She was a wife and a mother of a one year old little boy. As I made this video, I was thinking of her. The intro music is from a Buf fy episode called The Gift and the piece is called Sacrifice The 2nd piece of music is by John Mayer called Dreaming with a Broken Heart.

Description: Lame fan video slideshow for the incredible awesomeness that is Emilie Autumn to her song 4 O'Clock. Lyrics below: 4 o'Clock 4 o'Clock Never let me sleep I close my eyes and pray For the garish light of day Like a frightened child I run From the sleep that never comes 4 o'Clock 4 o'Clock Out of bed I creep To climb this tower of shame But the hour's still the same Only madness knows my name At 4 o'Clock 4 o'Clock 4 o'Clock Never let me sleep I close my eyes and pray For the garish light of day Like a frightened child I run From the sleep that never comes 4 o'Clock 4 o'Clock Out of bed I creep To climb this tower of shame But the hour's still the same Only madness knows my name At 4 o'Clock Why can we never go back to bed? Whose is the voice ringing in my head? Where is the sense in these desperate dreams? Why should I wake when I'm half past dead? Sure as the clock keeps its steady chime Weak as I walk to its steady rhyme Ticking away from the ones we love So many girls, so little time Why can we never go back to bed? Whose is the voice ringing in my head? Where is the sense in these desperate dreams? Why should I wake when I'm half past dead? 4 o'Clock 4 o'Clock Never let me sleep I close my eyes and pray For the garish light of day Like a frightened child I run From the sleep that never comes 4 o'Clock 4 o'Clock Out of bed I creep To climb this tower of shame But the hour's still the same Only slumber never came Only madness knows my name At 4 o'Clock Why can we never go back to bed? Whose is the voice ringing in my head? Where is the sense in these desperate dreams? Why should I wake when I'm half past dead? Sure as the clock keeps its steady chime Weak as I walk to its steady rhyme Ticking away from the ones we love So many girls, so little time Why can we never go back to bed?

Description: I pulled into Nazareth, was feelin' about half past dead; I just need some place where I can lay my head. "Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?" He just grinned and shook my hand, and "No!", was all he said. (Chorus:) Take a load off Annie, take a load for free; Take a load off Annie, And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me. I picked up my bag, I went lookin' for a place to hide; When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side. I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, let's go downtown." She said, "I gotta go, but m'friend can stick around." (Chorus) Go down, Miss Moses, there's nothin' you can say It's just ol' Luke, and Luke's waitin' on the Judgement Day. "Well, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?" He said, "Do me a favor, son, woncha stay an' keep Anna Lee company?" (Chorus) Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog. He said, "I will fix your rack, if you'll take Jack, my dog." I said, "Wait a minute, Chester, you know I'm a peaceful man." He said, "That's okay, boy, won't you feed him when you can." (Chorus) Catch a cannon ball now, t'take me down the line My bag is sinkin' low and I do believe it's time. To get back to Miss Fanny, you know she's the only one. Who sent me here with her regards for everyone.

Title: "the weight" The Band cover
Description: "The Weight" is the title of a 1968 song by The Band. It is one of the group's best known songs and among the most popular songs of the late 1960s counterculture. The Band's version is an excellent example of a silent title record, one in which the title never appears in the lyrics. While the names of the five members of The Band appear on the record label, "The Band" does not. The song was composed by The Band's Robbie Robertson and appears originally on The Band's first album, Music from Big Pink. It is #41 in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time list "The Weight" takes the folk music motif of a traveler, who arrives in Nazareth in the Lehigh Valley region of Pennsylvania. Once there, he encounters various residents of the town, the song being a story of these encounters. The residents include a man who cannot direct the traveler to a hotel, Carmen and the Devil walking side by side, "Crazy Chester," who offers a bed in exchange for the traveler taking his dog, and Luke who has gone out to wait for the apocalypse, leaving his young bride neglected. The traveler refers to "Miss Fannie," who has sent him on his journey to Nazareth, and "the weight" of the song is a reference to the burden of travel, of giving a message to the town, and of sin. The chorus refers to taking a load off of Fannie and putting it on the singer. The numerous Biblical allusions in the character names and incidents in the song are allegorical, referring to a purgatorial experience. In Levon Helm's autobiography "This Wheel's on Fire," Helm explains that the people mentioned in the song were based on real people the Band knew. The "Miss Anna Lee" mentioned in the lyric is Helm's longtime friend Anna Lee Amsden[2]. Robertson on "The Weight" According to Robertson, "The Weight" was somewhat inspired by the films of Luis Buñuel, about which Robertson once said: He did so many films on the impossibility of sainthood, people trying to do good in Viridiana and Nazarín, and it's impossible to do good. In "The Weight" it's the same thing. Someone says, "Listen, will you do me this favor? When you get there will you say 'hello' to somebody or will you pick up one of these for me?" "Oh, you're going to Nazareth, do me a favor when you're there." So the guy goes and one thing leads to another and it's like, "Holy shit, what has this turned into? I've only come here to say 'hello' for somebody and I've got myself in this incredible predicament." It was very Buñuelish to me at the time. Musical construction "The Weight" is sung primarily by Levon Helm, The Band's drummer. Rick Danko, the bassist, sings the fourth verse, and joins Helm in singing the fifth verse. The chorus is sung by all three of The Band's singers. Each verse follows the format of: Chords:A, C# minor, D, A Lyrics: I pulled into Nazareth, was feelin' about half past dead"; The chorus then takes the format of: Chords: A, E, D, A, E, D Lyrics: Take a load off Fannie, take a load for free; The easily identifiable bass run between the final verse and the chorus is up the A major pentatonic scale (that is, A,B,C#,E,F#,A). Film and commercial play "The Weight" has featured prominently in many films and television shows, including such movies as Hope Floats; Igby Goes Down (in a cover version by rock band Travis); The Big Chill; Easy Rider; Girl, Interrupted; Patch Adams; and Starsky & Hutch (as a parody of the scene in Easy Rider); and on television in The Sopranos (Episode 4 of Season 4 is titled "The Weight" and features the song in the end credits) and also on My Name Is Earl. It also shows up in the show Scrubs where the song is peformed by Zach Braff and his friends as part of a skit. It has also been used in commercials for Diet Coke and Cingular/AT&T Wireless, an American telecommunications company. The song was also included on the Easy Rider Soundtrack, but was performed by the band Smith because of contractual problems preventing use of The Band's version. "The Weight" is one of three songs performed by The Band featured in the 2003 documentary film, Festival Express. "The Weight" was one of three songs the Band's 1990s lineup performed for "LET IT ROCK!", a birthday concert/tribute for Ronnie Hawkins. A fan favourite, "The Weight" is also in two post-Last Waltz concert videos: "The Band Is Back" (1984) and "The Band Live At The New Orleans Jazz Festival" (1998). Don Imus liked this song and frequently played it on his show. The Levon Helm Band appeared frequently. Imus was fired from CBS Radio on April 12, 2007, in the midst of his charity radiothon. The Radiothon continued on Friday, April 13, 2007 with Imus's wife and newscaster hosting in his place, and the broadcast concluded with the Levon Helm Band performing "The Weight" live. Played by other musicians "The Weight" has been covered by many other acts, including the North Mississippi Allstars, moe., Aaron Prichett, The Staple Singers, Travis, The Grateful Dead, The New Riders of the Purple Sage, O.A.R., Edwin McCain, Spooky Tooth, Hanson, Stoney LaRue, Old Crow Medicine Show, Aretha Franklin, Joan Osborne, John Denver, Cassandra Wilson, Shannon Curfman, Al Kooper and Mike Bloomfield, and Dionne Warwick did as well. Ratdog and Bob Weir are also know to cover this song from time to time (notably shows in Pennsylvania). Additional notable versions are by Lee Ann Womack, the band Smith, and a joint effort by Diana Ross & the Supremes, The Allman Brothers Band, Joe Cocker, and The Temptations. In The Band's concert film, The Last Waltz, The Staples and The Band perform the song together. The indie-rock band Decemberists recruited Mavis Staples to sing the song with them during their performance at the Bonnaroo music festival in June 2007. Levon Helm and Rick Danko also performed the song with Ringo Starr and his All-Starr Band. Josh Kelley and his backing band, The Weight, also perform this song at live shows.[3] Australian artists Jimmy Barnes and The Badloves covered this song in 1993, which charted well. In 1994, the Staple Singers performed this song again, with country singer Marty Stuart on the country-R&B collaborative album Rhythm, Country and Blues, produced by Don Was. Along with Britney Spears' "Toxic", Radiohead's "(Nice Dream)" and the traditional song "The House Carpenter", Nickel Creek performed a cover of "The Weight" at Lollapalooza 2006. The Allman Brothers Band began to cover this song during their annual Beacon run in 2006, presumably in tribute to Duane Allman, who played on the Aretha Franklin version. Also, the song was played live in a joint performance by Sheryl Crow and The Wallflowers (whose lead singer is Jakob Dylan, the son of Bob Dylan, a frequent collaborator with The Band). "The Weight" is a hit for Canadian singer/songwriter Aaron Pritchett.[citation needed]Panic! At The Disco covered the song at the Virgin Festival on 5 August, 2007

Title: "The Weight" The Band cover (Robbie Robertson)
Description: This song was always my favorite Band tune. Thanks for listening. I tuned down a whole step. This is what C F Martin says on their website about Robbie Robertson and this song: "I pulled into Nazareth, was feelin' about half past dead." As written by Robbie Robertson and performed by the Band, the opening lines of "The Weight" rank among the most evocative in all of rock. The song is a spiritual journey, but the story behind the song is one of a Martin guitar providing musical inspiration of a most unusual kind. While the Band was living in Woodstock, New York in 1967, Robertson began writing "The Weight" on his D-28, but struggled to come up with lyrics. At some point he looked into the guitar's soundhole and saw the word "Nazareth," along with the rest of the C. F. Martin hotstamp on the back center brace. It became the focus of the song's opening verse, and the rest of the lyrics quickly fell into place. He has said looking inside the guitar "gave" him the first line of the song. The rest is rock history.

Description: Just music, no video. From the album Four. Standing here with a tale to tell I might as well tell to you Nothing near Wagnerian As Terminater Two It's an old on about a little dirt farm girl Who wanted to get out for good She'd do anything to keep that dream She'd do anything she could Who was she To feel so free With her heart on her sleeve She just couldn't believe... There was a price to pay Her very first chance to escape that year Came when the circus had come to town She wound up in bed and quite madly in love With some rubber nose juggling clown He promised her he'd return for her come next spring And he swore that he wouldn't forget Needless to say came the following May More than her appetite was getting wet She proceeded unheeded and quite undefeated To the trailer behind the tent And her heart began to soar at his trailer door She was gonna go wherever he went Who was she To feel so free With her heart on her sleeve She just couldn't believe There was a price to pay [ Find more Lyrics at www.mp3lyrics.org/wzi ] He arrived at about half past With a girl under every arm But all of this in itself could have been innocent as hell But what began to cause her alarm Was when he locked the door behind him like she'd always been She was standing alone in the dirt And her eyes were so dry that she began to cry And something began to hurt She wanted to tear the hair out of her head Yeah and she wanted to wish that she was dead But a voice in her just would not let her drop And her heart began to break but it didn't stop "Run all you're races And don't you fear You and I Are getting out of here And we'll survive That I guarantee Cause you don't need much When all you have is me" She listened to the little voice in her And then she hit the road Free at last with just a tiny scar And finally on her own No one knows what became of her All we know is that she got away And though there really ain't no guarantee down here I like to think she did okay Who was she To feel so free With her heart on her sleeve She just wouldn't believe That there's a price to pay That there's a price to pay That there's a price to pay That there's a price to pay

Janis Ian Official Site http://www.janisian.com Artist: Janis Ian Album: Between The Lines 1975 Song: Tea & Sympathy I don't want to ride the milk train any more I'll go to bed at nine & waken with the dawn and lunch at half past noon Dinner prompt at five The comfort of a few old friends long past their prime Pass the tea & sympathy For the good old days long gone We drink a toast to those who most Believe in what they've won It's a long long time 'til morning Plays wasted on the dawn I'll not write another line For my true love is gone When the guests have done I'll tidy up the room I'll turn the covers down And gazing at the moon I'll pray to go quite mad And live in long ago When you & I were one, So very long ago Pass the tea & sympathy For the good old days long gone Let's drink a toast to those who most Believe in what they've won It's a long long time 'til morning Plays wasted on the dawn I'll not write another line For my true love is gone When I have no dreams To give you any more I'll light a blazing fire And wait within the door And throw my life away "I wonder why?" They all will say And now I lay me down to sleep, Forever and a day Pass the tea & sympathy For the good old days are dead Let's drink a toast to those who best Survived the life they've led It's a long long time 'til morning So build your fires high Now I lay me dowm to sleep Forever by your side * Janis Ian Janis Ian (born April 7, 1951[1]) is a Grammy Award-winning American songwriter, singer, multi-instrumental musician, columnist, and science fiction author.
