Merry Christmas 2013 - 60s Christmas Songs

Back in the 60s' the parents would put on a few albums by the Ray Conniff Singers while we decorated the house for Christmas. There were about a dozen male and female singers with excellent voices and the tunes were catchy with a good amount of reverb in the drum tracks. I fondly remember those good times and just made a playlist of mostly Ray Conniff Singers Christmas songs. I hope you enjoy them!

Lords Of Gravity - Where You Gonna Run

Starting with a nice slow organ chord progression, this kick-ass Garage Rock song lets you know what's coming at 11 seconds into the song when that sweet organ swells and fuzzes out from high volume! Then at 16 seconds, we get organ and guitar belting out one of my favorite Garage Rock 4 chord progressions which immediately causes my brain to light up all circuits and my body to bop and dance in my chair. Its the same pattern used by The Pandoras in one of my favorites, "That's Your Way Out" - if it doesn't get you excited and moving some part of your body, check your pulse cuz you may in fact be dead!

Vocals kick in, asking where ya gonna run to? You gotta pay. It's Judgement Day. "You've been a Bad Girl." Another brilliant Garage Rock theme common in 1966 and dragged into 2012 by this Australian Garage Punk band on the Rumble Skunk Records label. The lead vocal is gritty but understandable. The backing woah woahs are there. The drums are pounding but a bit burried in the fury of the other audio tracks, but they come through at the high end due to the cymbal pounding.

When you hear the scream at 1:23, you know the guitar break is here! All manner of psychedelic hell breaks loose as the guitar screams and wails in a powerful, energetic perfect 60s Garage freeform solo, but floating barely above the still full sound of organ, thumping bass runs and drums.

Back to the organ providing that glorious chord progression again, but this time with the drums right there clearly in the forefront. After another verse and chorus and two yelps and a short organ outro dump you suddenly into silence, leaving you spent but smiling from this fantastic voyage!

Have a listen to this great Garage Rock tune! The video description is under the video. Note the email address provided for info on buying the LP this appears on. Listen and share, let's get this video to 1000+ views!

You Lied To Me Before - Lyrics

By request, here are the lyrics to "You Lied To Me Before" by The Treez from 1966 and more recently covered by The Gore Gore Girls.

You Lied to me before,
You Lied to me before.
Don't come lookin' for no sympathy, 'cause
You Lied to me before.
And I'm not the guy that I used to be, no.
You Lied to me before.
You told me things that were not true, child.
You Lied to me before.
And now they're all coming back to you, baby.
You Lied to me before.
Sing it out now!
You Lied to me before.
Yeah you did!
You Lied to me before.
Many times, yeah!
(Guitar)
If you think that I'm the guy to sit around and hear you lie, no!
You Lied to me before.
'Cause here I'm go and let you be and maybe you'll come back to me, yeah!
You Lied to me before.
'Cause I don't mind to be alone, child.
You Lied to me before.
And here we just gonna see how far you can get out on your own, yeah.
You Lied to me before.
I know that you've been going' out with the other guys.
Then you gotta come home and tell me your lies!
Well let me tell ya baby, I'm through!
The next time through you're gonna hear me say these words to you -
big, brave and bold. Yeah!
You Lied to me before, yeah you did, (many times).
You Lied to me before, many times, yes you did.
You Lied to me before, many times!

Here is the original by The Treez, from YouTube:

1960s Garage Rock Lyrics - Podcast 1

Have you heard our very first podcast? It featured four great 1960s Garage Rock songs that you don't hear very often today, if at all! I would invite some of today's bands to cover these great tunes. To help the cause, I'll list the lyrics to the songs on our first podcast, as I hear them.



Scream Loud - The Quests (Visit their website)

If you really want me, yeah, scream loud, scream loud.

Or I won't hear you, I'll
never know you're there, I'll
never realize that you may
really care
and so, I'll say to you...

If you really want me, yeah, scream loud, scream loud.

For the words that you say may not
come into my heart
I'll never know if we should
really part
and so before I go...

If you really want me, yeah, scream loud, scream loud.

[Guitar Break]

Cuz if you really want me,
tell the world you do!
I want them all to know our
love can be true!
And so before I go...

If you really want me, yeah, scream loud, scream loud.

Or I won't hear you,
I'll never know you're there,
I'll never realize that you may
really care
and so, I'll say to you...

If you really want me, yeah, scream loud, scream loud.



I Want you - Toni & Terri

Hey hey hey girl, take a look at me.
It's really hard I know, since you never saw me before.
You know what I want, I want you!

That don't matter none when you're young.
What do you expect me to do?
Get up and walk out with you?
You know what I want, I want you!

Maybe you oughta walk away!
Why should I go, why cant I stay, no matter what the people say?
Maybe you oughta walk away!
Why let em live your life for you, come on and do what you wanna do with me!

[harmonia break]

Hey hey hey girl, you better start livin', yeah.
Its time you had some thoughts of your own.
Life's too short, the red tape's too long.

You dont have to be like everybody else, no.
I never met anyone like you.
And I'm tired of doin' everything other people do.
You know what I want babe, I want you!

I'm glad I listened to what you said.
Why should I go, why cant I stay, no matter what the people say?
I'm glad I listened to what you said.
Why let em live your life for you, come on and do what you wanna do with me!

I want you!!!!
Oh, I need you!
I want you!!!!
And I love you too!
I want you!!!!
And I'll be with you!
I want you!!!!
Oh, I want you!


Some Day - The Resumes

Hey girl I wanna talk to you,
I've got somethin' to say.
I'm gonna be leavin' you,
I may be back someday.

I'll do what I wanna do,
I'll find a way,
to keep on lovin' you
as I do today, as I do today, today, today!

I've got to keep moving on,
don't ask me where.
I'm travellin' all alone,
you must beware.
Lord no, I gotta be gone,
don't really care.
I'll stop in one o' those towns
where there's time to spare, there's time to spare, to spare, to spare! aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!

[Extremely Cool Fuzz Guitar Break]

I've cheated, I've run around,
Lookin' for some pay.
I haven't any friends in town,
so I'll be on my way, my way, my way!

I'll stay in a cheap hotel,
and earn my pay.
And when I'll pay my bill,
I'll be on my way.

All of that will pay my friend,
If I found a way.
Divert the spell my friend,
So I'll get right someday, someday, someday!


Painted Air - The Remaining Few

Here I lie on my deathbed,
Recalling things said,
As my world slips away.

A man stands over me,
one final plea,
though I disagree.

Cars,
daytime and light,
running red light.
Other drivers won't yield.

People stand without sound,
tears touch the ground,
and soon dry away.
