When I get the Big One, I’m very different from the rest of you kids, I can’t frigging move!!! I also, can’t stand light or noise. So, I tie a towel around my eyes, I lie down and wait. But, when I get a Kip 3-6, I put on this song from the: 4 NON BLONDES, CD (Bigger, Better, Faster, More!) called “What’s Up” and I stomp around screeching to these, oh so apropos, lyrics (condensed, so that the toofless wonder will eat it): What's up 25 years of my life and still I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope For a destination I realized quickly when I knew I should That the world was made up of this Brotherhood of man For whatever that means So I cry somethimes when I'm lying in bed To get it all out what's in my head Then I start feeling a little peculiar So I wake in the morning and I step Outside I take deep breath I get real high Then I scream from the top of my lungs What's goin' on And I say hey... And I say hey what's goin' on And I say hey... I said hey what's goin' on And I try, oh my God do I try I try all the time In this institution And I pray, oh my God do I pray I pray every single day For a revolution So I cry sometimes when I'm lying in my bed To get it all out what's in my head Then I start feeling a little peculiar So I wake in the morning and I step outside I take a deep breaththen I get real high Then I scream from the top of my lungs What's goin' on And I say hey... And I say hey what's goin' on And I say hey... I said hey what's goin' on And I say hey... And I say hey what's goin' on And I say hey... I said hey what's goin' on 25 years of my life and still I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope For a destination I lied, it's not condensed--it's CARROT/CHESTNUT-- ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D FYI, carrot/chestnut is the secret club soup. David J. P.S. Ned, I finally got it! Cool!

My theme song is *YOU can't always get what you want* by the Rolling Stones. But when I am getting hit, it's * Saturday Nights Allright for Fighting by Elton John. And after the fight is over it's *Purple Haze* by Jimi Hendrix...*duh*

As far as the CH.com site goes, I have always thought this song would be a most appropriate theme song. by Bill Withers. I think for a CH description song.......this one seems to fit. by Quiet Riot. (Thanks for letting me "borrow" your icon Mark C.) My favorite? Has to be....... Scream by The Young Dubliners. Of course, can't leave out....... King Of Pain by The Police. Good thread, should spark lots of interest & replies. By the way, "What's Up" is a good choice too. Thanks for the thread. KingOfPain

Louis Armstrong singing "Scream a Little Scream" Stars shining bright above you Night breezes seem to whisper "I come for you" Birds singin' in the sycamore trees Scream a little scream of me Say nighty-night and kiss me Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me While I'm alone and blue as can be Scream a little scream of me Stars fading but I linger on dear Still craving your eye I'm longin' to linger till dawn dear Just saying this Sweet screams while my claws find you Sweet screams that leave all worries inside you But in your screams whatever they be Scream a little scream of me (instrumental break) Throwing-stars shining up inside you Night breezes seem to whisper "I come for you" Birds singin' in the sycamore trees Scream a little scream of me Sweet screams while my claws find you Sweet screams that leave all worries inside you But in your screams whatever they be Scream a little scream of me Yes, scream a little scream of me

Knee jerk reaction... I need something that gives me will to survive... something that kicks ass (although I don't listen to music during CH)... therefore, a double shot from Manowar (shortened due to length): Blood Of My Enemies (an excerpt) Three sons have I, and they Ride by my side. - The fierce, The black, and the wicked are their names - we ride down my enemies on their half-hearted flight. No voice of mercy - no evangels of light. Strong winds - magic mist To Asgard the Valkries fly High overhead - they carry the dead Where the blood of my enemy lies. Kill With Power (an excerpt) Run berserk - spreading fear and pain. Black shield and weapons, black our chain. None can harm us - not thier fire - Iron or steel - for we have the Will to power - with power we will Kill. Kill with power - die die Kill with power - die die

Never during....who else but the great Jimmy Buffett Pacing The Cage Sunset is an angel weeping Holding out a bloody sword No matter how I squint I cannot Make out what it's pointing toward Sometimes you feel like you've lived too long Days drip slowly on the page And You catch yourself Pacing the cage I've proven who I am so many times The magnetic strip's worn thin And each time I was someone else And everyone was taken in Powers chatter in high places Stir up eddies in the dust of rage Set me to pacing the cage I never knew what you all wanted So I gave you everything All that I could pillage All the spells that I could sing It's as if the thing were written In the constitution of the age Sooner or later you'll wind up Pacing the cage Sometimes the best map will not guide you You can't see what's round the bend Sometimes the road leads through dark places Sometimes the darkness is your friend Today these eyes scan bleached-out land For the coming of the outbound stage Pacing the cage Pacing the cage

Can I deny MY songs.... ;D ;D ;D Here it is (is in the CD I have recorded for the Vancouver Convention....) for those that haven't heard it, click below http://www.ouchitalia.it/ztemp/Demon.mp3 and http://www.ouchitalia.it/ztemp/Autumn_leaves.mp3 Text: Demon (song) Now again, the pain in my eye no one can help me on this side I start to bang, oh God, I dread the hated Demon won’t leave my head Oh please now leave me alone, I cannot deal with anyone Oh please don’t leave me alone The Demon may return to my home The battle leaves me a wounded man I am scarred from fighting as hard as I can. Please all my friends the Clusterheads Help me as usual through our threads. Amazing that someone across the globe Can help you more than one at home Amaze me again you cluster friends Family in my heart until the end Now, when the Demon reaches height We are a million, together we fight A unite family of Clusterheads Together to win from this blight This is for all of you, my friends To each other we give our helping hands It may be a post, or an E-mail we do To valiantly say, my friend, I ”feel like you“ This is just for you, my brave friends In both pain and joy, you are in my heart This is just for you, my brave friends In pain and joy you are all in my heart By Riccardo (Music and words) (with a great help from Sailpappy) Autumn Leaves (song) It’s so hard on this blue hill it’s so hard in this black night A lot harder for my head these heavy shadows on me. It’s so hard on this blue hill it’s so hard in this black night Feelin’ round the living life It’s so hard in this strange autumn full of leaves Shake the big pain saucer full of cluster bouts And all along the night those cries with me. ‘T was a year full of pain I’m expecting a worse end now this pain is too hard for me oh baby please help me. If my tears are rain for me if my cries are only wind If my heart explodes now for this stranger in my head Oh God I feel me alone Oh friends can you help me I often try to go home and home is far from me ……………. It’s so nice on this blue hill it’s so nice in this black night Head is free from pain now the shadows disappeared It’s so nice on this blue hill it’s so nice in this black night I feel me part of living life It’s so nice in this strange autumn full of leaves By Riccardo (Music and words)

This always makes me smile.....   ROSIE (by Jackson Browne & Donald Miller) She was standing at the load-in When the trucks rolled up She was sniffing all around Like a half grown female pup She wasn't hard to talk to Looked like she had nowhere to go So I gave her my pass So she could get in and see the show Well I sat her down right next to me And I got her a beer While I mixed that sound on stage So the band could hear The more I watched her watch them play The less I could think of to say And when they walked off stage The drummer swept that girl away But Rosie you're all right -- you wear my ring When you hold me tight -- Rosie that's my thing When you turn out the light -- I've got to hand it to me Looks like it's me and you again tonight Rosie Well I guess I might have known from the start She'd come for a star Might have told my imagination not to run too far Of all the times that I've been burned By now you'd think I'd have learned That it's who you look like Not who you are But Rosie you're all right -- you wear my ring When you hold me tight -- Rosie that's my thing When you turn out the light -- I've got to hand it to me Looks like it's me and you again tonight Rosie

Metallica - Fade To Black Life it seems will fade away Drifting further every day Getting lost within myself Nothing matters no one else I have lost the will to live Simply nothing more to give There is nothing more for me Need the end to set me free Things not what they use to be Missing one inside of me Deathly lost this cant be real Cannot stand this hell I feel Emptiness is filling me To the point of agony Growing darkness taking dawn I was me but now he is gone

Hmmm...during an attack, Creed...One Last Breath AFter an attack, Wilson Philips .. Hold On Please come now I think I'm falling I'm holding to all I think is safe It seems I found the road to nowhere And I'm trying to escape I yelled back when I heard thunder But I'm down to one last breath And with it let me say Let me say Hold me now I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking That maybe six feet Ain't so far down I'm looking down now that it's over Reflecting on all of my mistakes I thought I found the road to somewhere Somewhere in His grace I cried out heaven save me But I'm down to one last breath And with it let me say Let me say Hold me now I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking That maybe six feet Ain't so far down Sad eyes follow me But I still believe there's somthing left for me So please come stay with me 'Cause I still believe there's something left for you and me For you and me For you and me Hold me now I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking Wilson Philips: Hold On I know this pain Why do lock yourself up in these chains? No one Can change your life except for you Don't ever let anyone step all over you Just open your heart and your mind Is it really fair to feel this way inside? Some day somebody's gonna make you want to Turn around and say goodbye Until then baby are you going to let them Hold you down and make you cry Don't you know? Don't you know things can change Things'll go your way If you hold on for one more day Can you hold on for one more day Things'll go your way Hold on for one more day You could sustain Or are you comfortable with the pain? You've got no one to blame for your unhappiness You got yourself into your own mess Lettin' your worries pass you by Don't you think it's worth your time To change your mind? Repeat Chorus Breakown/Chorus Don't you know things can change Things'll go your way If you hold on for one more day, Yeah If you hold on If you hold on Mmm... If you hold on baby Won't you tell me now Hold on for one more day 'Cause It's gonna go your way Don't you know things can change Things'll go your way If you hold on for one more day, Yeah Can't you change it this time Make up your mind Hold on Hold on baby hold on... Turn around, Just turn around baby Hold on for one more day, Cause It's gonna go your way...

OUCH! You have stomped on my most-frayed nerve. One of the things I hate most when I get an attack going that's an 8 or better is that the last song I was listening to gets stuck in my head and won't quit until the headache quits. My very worst nightmare-aches usually include some horrible thing like the SpongeBob theme song over and over and over and over again while I huff my oxygen and do my imitrex and maybe if it's a full-blown 10 I do all that while standing in a scalding hot shower or else with my head stuck in a freezer. Seriously, when the beast starts to claw, I try my best to get some instrumental jazz going (Brubeck is my favorite) or else some spacey new-age (Tangerine Dream or Ray Lynch, any cut) so I won't be stuck with something inane running thru my brain while the pain eats away. I mean, I even LIKE the SpongeBob theme song, and I REALLY like most of what Aerosmith does, but each has its time and place -- away from my cluster attacks. If I had to pick one to shout, it would be "Tell Me What It Takes To Let You Go" by Aerosmith. Tell me how the pain's supposed to go--o---oooo.... Peace, love, and PFD's! Old Dave

Might as well post the lyrics. Metallica, One. I don't think I could actually listen to this while having an attack, but it certainly puts me "in the mood". A whole lot of perfectly good anger in this piece. I Can't Remember Anything Can't Tell If this Is True or Dream Deep down Inside I Feel to Scream this Terrible Silence Stops Me Now That the War Is Through with Me I'm Waking up I Can Not See That There Is Not Much Left of Me Nothing Is Real but Pain Now Hold My Breath as I Wish for Death Oh Please God,wake Me Back in the Womb its Much Too Real in Pumps Life That I must Feel but Can't Look Forward to Reveal Look to the Time When I'll Live Fed Through the Tube That Sticks in Me Just like a Wartime Novelty Tied to Machines That Make Me Be Cut this Life off from Me Hold My Breath as I Wish for Death Oh Please God,wake Me Now the World Is Gone I'm Just One Oh God,help Me Hold My Breath as I Wish for Death Oh Please God Help Me Darkness Imprisoning Me All That I See Absolute Horror I Cannot Live I Cannot Die Trapped in Myself Body My Holding Cell Landmine Has Taken My Sight Taken My Speech Taken My Hearing Taken My Arms Taken My Legs Taken My Soul Left Me with Life in Hell

I'm with Elaine!! HYMNS! There are also a number of Psalms that are great to meditate on during a CH! Now, some of you might say "The 23rd Psalm isn't a SONG!" *bzzzt!* WRONG! All the Psalms were originally penned to be sung! Granted, we don't have the original music (wouldn't that be cool!), but they were (and still are) songs! Psalm 116 (my personal favorite) is a beautiful reflection of gratitude to God for rescuing one from the pit of dispair. Regards to all! Stan"Keepin' a Psalm in my heart" TheMan BTW: Carly Simon's song cracks me up -- When do ANY of us (especially us clusterheads) have TIME for PAIN! LOL! "Gee honey, the show doesn't start until eight -- do ya think we have time for a migraine?"

I remember years and years ago, the Minister at my grandmothers church, telling a funny story during his sermon: A minister was greeting his congregation as they were leaving and a little 6 yr. old boy told him that the best part of the day was when everyone was singing. The minister asked him, “What was your favorite hymn”, and the boy replied, “The one about the bear who couldn’t see very well”. “The bear…?” “Yea, you know.. ‘Gladly, the cross-eyed bear’”. David J.

I listen to music when dancing with the beast if it is on, blast so that my cries can be covered...strange...guess I am trying to control the dance...shame it doesnt work though Anyways, I agree with Catlind that "One last Breath" by Creed is great during one. Afterwards, anytime I like.. Bob Dylan's "Blowin' In the Wind" How many roads must a man walk down Before you call him a man? Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail Before she sleeps in the sand? Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly Before they're forever banned? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind, The answer is blowin' in the wind. How many times must a man look up Before he can see the sky? Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have Before he can hear people cry? Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows That too many people have died? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind, The answer is blowin' in the wind. How many years can a mountain exist Before it's washed to the sea? Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist Before they're allowed to be free? Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head, Pretending he just doesn't see? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind, The answer is blowin' in the wind.[b][/b] Jill
