Old Bands Round 1 The Who vs. Cream

The Who



Pinball Wizard

Ever since I was a young boy
I've played the silver ball
From Soho down to Brighton
I must have played them all
But I ain't seen nothing like him
In any amusement hall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball

He stands like a statue
Becomes part of the machine
Feeling all the bumpers
Always playing clean
He plays by intuition
The digit counters fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball

He's a pinball wizard
There's got to be a twist
A pinball wizard
He's got such a supple wrist

How do you think he does it?
(I don't know)
What makes him so good?

He ain't got no distractions
Can't hear those buzzers and bells
Don't see lights a flashin'
Plays by sense of smell
Always gets a replay
Never tilts at all
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball

I thought I was
The Bally table king
But I just handed
My pinball crown to him

Even on my usual table
He can beat my best
His disciples lead him in
And he just does the rest
He's got crazy flipper fingers
Never seen him fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball



Cream



Sunshine of Your Love

It's getting near dawn.
The lights close their tired eyes.
I'll soon be with you, my love,
to give you my dawn surprise.
I'll be with you, darling, soon,
I'll be with you when the stars start falling.

I've been waiting so long
to be where I'm going
in the sunshine of your love.

I'm with you, my love.
The light shining through on you.
Yes, I'm with you, my love,
it's the morning and just we two.
I'll stay with you, darling, now,
I'll stay with you till my seeds are dried up.

I've been waiting so long
to be where I'm going
in the sunshine of your love.

I'm with you, my love.
The light shining through on you.
Yes, I'm with you, my love,
it's the morning and just we two.
I'll stay with you, darling, now,
I'll stay with you till my seeds are dried up.

I've been waiting so long,
I've been waiting so long,
I've been waiting so long
to be where I'm going
in the sunshine of your love.

I still love that Animaniacs skit with The Who.

[DimHalo]

[Classic Rocker]

[Hero2]

I love the movie tommy too much not to vote for the who!!!

[ZebraRampage]

Could I ask a favor? I have told Vampyr to take over for me tomorrow because I won't be here. He hasn't been on time with the new bands, and I'm just not sure if he will be tomorrow. If he doesn't post the polls by 7:30, would someone else cover for him? Just look in the Music Battle Bracket topic, the next bands down are the next battles. Thank You.

Actually, I might just do it 30 minutes early. 6:30 Eastern time, since I'll be gone at 6:40.

Yes, you may. I take it that you voted for The Who then.

Take a little dope
And walk out in the air
The stars are all connected to the brain.
Find me a woman and lay down on the ground,
Her pleasure comes falling down like rain,
Get myself a car, I feel power as I fly,
Oh now I'm really in control,
It all looks fine to the naked eye,
But it don't really happen that way at all,
Don't happen that way at all.

You sign your own name and I sign mine,
They're both the same but we still get separate rooms,
You can cover up your guts but when you cover up your nuts,
You're admitting that there must be something wrong,
Press any button and milk and honey flows,
The world begins behind your neighbor's wall,
It all looks fine to the naked eye,
But it don't really happen that way at all,
Nah nah no, don't happen that way at all.

You hold the gun and I hold the wound,
And we stand looking in each other's eyes,
Both think we know what's right,
Both know we know what's wrong,
We tell ourselves so many many many lies,
We're not pawns in any game, we're not tools of bigger men,
There's only one who can really move us all,
It all looks fine to the naked eye,
But it don't really happen that way at all.

Anyway, vote goes to the Who in thanks to Pete Townsend for being intrumental in the creation of the full stack amplifier.

Look, he’s crawling up my wall
Black and hairy, very small
Now he’s up above my head
Hanging by a little thread

Boris the spider
Boris the spider

Now he’s dropped on to the floor
Heading for the bedroom door
Maybe he’s as scared as me
Where’s he gone now, I can’t see

Boris the spider
Boris the spider

Creepy, crawly
Creepy, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly

There he is wrapped in a ball
Doesn’t seem to move at all
Perhaps he’s dead, I’ll just make sure
Pick this book up off the floor

Boris the spider
Boris the spider

Creepy, crawly
Creepy, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly

He’s come to a sticky end
Don’t think he will ever mend
Never more will he crawl ’round
He’s embedded in the ground

Boris the spider
Boris the spider

[BlueFire]

Go The Who :P

[Canyarion]

Cream Who?

[Seth]

Just thought I'd let everyone know that one of the who's members was caught with a child porn site membership.

He claimed that it was for research about child pornography.

so ya, just thought I'd spoil it for some people. I can't remember which one it was though.
