Lyrics - Play Your Game

You got a thing that makes me so crazy
A kinda look I've seen from you lately
Never fails to pump up the beat so play your game on me

I feel those good vibrations from you and all the things you do
Girl I think I'm in love with you
I feel those good vibrations from you and everything you do
I think I love you
I feel those good vibrations from you and all the things you do
Girl I think I'm in love with you
I feel those good vibrations from you and everything you do
I think I love you

There's a feeling inside my head
The music leads to different places and the mood is set
And now my mind is on overload
You've stepped right in and broken all the codes

You up the beat, I'll take the heat
And all the people are on their feet
You set the style, bring the groove
So come on take your step let's get on the move

You got a thing that makes me so crazy
A kinda look I've seen from you lately
Never fails to pump up the beat so play your game on me

I feel those good vibrations from you and all the things you do
Girl I think I'm in love with you
I feel those good vibrations from you and everything you do
I think I love you
I feel those good vibrations from you and all the things you do
Girl I think I'm in love with you
I feel those good vibrations from you and everything you do
I think I love you

And now it's all these ideas in my head
I wanna take you to a new place step into the red
My mind's addicted to the sound
The walls cave in, I can't even see the ground

You got a thing that makes me so crazy
A kinda look I've seen from you lately
Never fails to pump up the beat so play your game on me

I feel those good vibrations from you and all the things you do
Girl I think I'm in love with you
I feel those good vibrations from you and everything you do
I think I love you
I feel those good vibrations from you and all the things you do
Girl I think I'm in love with you
I feel those good vibrations from you and everything you do
I think I love you

You up the beat, I'll take the heat
And all the people out in the street
You set the groove make it soar
So come on take your step and get on the floor

I feel those good vibrations from you and all the things you do
Girl I think I'm in love with you
I feel those good vibrations from you and everything you do
I think I love you
I feel those good vibrations from you and all the things you do
Girl I think I'm in love with you
I feel those good vibrations from you and everything you do
I think I love you

Vote for Kurdish singer Goran Kay in the Eurovision song contest

It appears the Kurds are asking the Celts for their support for the Kurdish
singer, I am not too sure about this one.

I think that Kurdish and Celtic culture have a few similarities, so maybe
he is angling for support on that basis ?
Could xomebody please tell me if there is much in common with these cultures
?

I would think that the Eurovision song contest would have some other
entrany that is more celtic, perhaps. Goram's lyrics presented appear to be
turgid crap but may be a better standard of crap than the little I have ever
seen of the Eurovision song contest.

I fear that we may be being asked to vote for someone who appears to be of
the calibre of Borat Sagdiyev, the international representative of Kazakh
culture.

Yours in puzzlement,

RM O'Donnell

Thanks for the reply R M O'Donnell,



First, all my efforts did not paid off; Goran Kay came last in the voting by
the British public :-)



When it comes to similarities between the Celtic culture and the Kurdish
culture you may not believe it but it is a lot of similarities! As in the
past when Celtic culture was denied and banned by the English occupiers
(probably few centuries ago) Kurdish culture is also denied and banned by
the occupying forces (Turkey, Iran, Syria and Saddam's Iraq)! Kurdish
language is banned in Turkey, Kurdish identity is denied by the Turkish
regime even though 20 million Kurds live in Turkey, Kurdish culture is
restricted by the Turkish state (playing Kurdish music, writing Kurdish
books, poems, dancing in the rhythm of Kurdish folk music could make you end
up put you in jail for life)! The things that I mentioned here happen now in
the edge of the Europe where the county called Turkey trying to get a
membership to European Union.



The reason that I have asked for your support was to showing specially the
Turks that Kurdish people exist and continue to exist even discriminative
and racist policies of Turkish state and like a singer Goram Kay who is not
shy to call himself Kurdish would have proved my point.



I guess we will have to find another way to struggle our just cause!



Please visit soc.culture.kurdish to understand what I mean.



Thank you

Ali Askar,
I will visit soc.culture.kurdish soon in order to try to learn a little more
about about Kurdish stuff., I am a descendant of people from around the
Caucus myself but am probably closer to Borat Sagdiyev's mob than the Kurds.

The little that I have seen of Kudish music and dance did seem to have
something in common with the Irish equivilants. The modern repression of
Kurdish culture probably has a lot in common with the worst excesses of the
repression of Irish culture by Oliver Cromwell about 500 years ago.

I doubt if you could ever interest the British public in becoming Kurd
friendly, they probably have much less interest in things Kurdish than the
majority of people in Turkey or Iran. the only Kurd friendly thing about
Britian is that they do not have repressive laws against the Kurds that some
of the Kurds native countries do. All asking the British for support could
achieve is to encourage the British to repress Kurds as their own countries
do. I don't think that a non-European would have a lot of hope in the
Eurovision contest either, althought I have no idea about it really.

Many Kurds have found refuge in Australia but other middle-eastern
immigrants have been regarded as less than desirable newcomers here, in
recent years. This does not encourage locals to be very welcoming of Kurds
as well as other middle-easterners.
