No better way to introduce myself to this forum than this song :

d'you know it ?

I love my dog as much as I love you

But you may fade, my dog will always come through.

All he asks from me is the food to give him strength

All he ever needs is love and that he knows he

Hi T-Rex! Welcome to the Forum. I was sort of a Cat Stevens fan, but don't remember this particular song, but then again I barely remember what I had for dinner last night! Love the lyrics though and I'll bet it had a great tune.

Ironic, coming from a 'Cat', huh??

I used to like Cat Stevens, but no I don't remember that one either. I do know Aerosmith's 'Sick as a Dog' though!!

Thanks for your warm welcome !

I don't know this particular aerosmith's song , but do you think dogs are sick ? I personally don't . Any way , the "dogs in lyrics" game would be a good game . Each day you'll have to find a new song containing "dog" or "dogs " in its lyrics . would you participate ? here's my today's title :" Dogs of war " by Pink Floyd .

As long as we're getting artistic here's a lovely poem from American poet laureate Billy Collins. It's titled "Dharma". What a beautiful sentiment he expresses which I feel we can all relate to about our "kids" .

The way the dog trots out the front door

every morning

without a hat or an umbrella,

without any money

or the keys to her doghouse

never fails to fill the saucer of my heart

with milky admiration.

Who provides a finer example

of a life without encumbrance

LOL, T-REX! No, I don't think dogs are sick , and the song really has nothing to do with dogs per se, just popped into my head.

So do you have a Cairn???

[wheezie23]

What a beautiful poem, Chichi. Thanks for sharing that. And TRex, my song for today is "Diamond Dogs" by David Bowie. Welcome to the forum!!

Welcome T-Rex, I can't remember that song by Cat Stevens but thinking about "dog" songs (don't tell my cairn girls they're dogs ) the ones that popped into me head (and yes I'm showing my age ) are:

"Me and My Arrow" by Harry Nilsson

"Me and You and a Dog Named Boo" by Lobo

[T-REX]

Thanks for your warm welcome !

[T-REX]

My today's song is "Let me play with your poodle" by lightnin' hopkins .

[Guest abbycairn]

T- Rex,

I listen to Cat Stevens every once in a while on the radio in the UK. He does a religious message spot every once in a while on BBC 2 radio. He's a Buddhist monk at a temple in North London.

[Mama Kim]

Piper's song of the day today: Hair of the Dog -- Nazareth.

BTW, is it any coincidence that Piper was born on April 13th, Aerosmith Day in Massachusetts, and that her sire's name is Tyler?? Hmmm, I think not.

[T-REX]
