    99 Red Balloons...I can't recall who did it first...

    Ninety-nine red balloons
    Floating in the summer sky
    Panic bells, it's red alert
    There's something here from somewhere else
    The war machine springs to life
    Opens up one eager eye
    Focusing it on the sky
    As ninety-nine red balloons go by...

    Kind of a morbid song really but one of my favorites still.

    Is Black Magic Woman on the list yet? Thats another favorite...

    FYI: Nena

    "99 Luftballons" is a Cold War-era protest song by the German singer Nena. Originally sung in German, it was later re-recorded in English as "99 Red Balloons".

    I've always liked it too.

    I was fairly sure Nena did it first. I recall Blondie recording a version too...

    Thanks! My dad speaks German and really likes the original lol, thats how I first heard the song.

    Jugband Blues - Pink Floyd

    And I never knew the moon could be so big
    And I never knew the moon could be so blue
    And I'm grateful that you threw away my old shoes
    And brought me here instead dressed in red
    And I'm wondering who could be writing this song.

    ....
    And the sea isn't green
    And I love the queen
    And what exactly is a dream
    And what exactly is a joke.
    The Minions:
    {The Dog: Towser & Raiden} {The Cats: Khaith, Martha, Adelaide, Snowball, & Floki} {The Bird: Gir}
