End of The Party

You've got people at your house. You want them to leave. What song to you put on the turntable/cd changer? It's got to be a song you dig - but your guests will likely run screaming for the door -

here's two of my choices -

VU - Sister Ray
Elton Motello - Jet Boy - Jet Girl

Tom Waits - What's He Building
Gram Parsons - $1000 Wedding

For two completely different reasons, clearly. I love 'em both though

I would just start singing. That would do it.

Or maybe a duet of I Got You Babe with Mrs VG.

If (and it's a big if) there was anyone else left then it would have to be Couldn't Call It Unexpected #4 and The Birds Will Still Be Singing. None of my mates like Elvis.

LC - my mates would love Hold Me Close

I hope nobody here judges someone by the company they keep...

I would play one of those six-minute Pulp songs about a river.

Wickerman?

Get Out Of Here by Thin Lizzy.
No Quarter by Led Zeppelin, on repeat.

It would depend on who the guests are. Most of our friends would run screaming from Herb Alpert's 'Whipped Cream and Other Delights', or anything Burt Bacharach.

But really, the way to get rid of unwanted guests is to excuse yourself, put on your flannel pj's and reappear wearing your fuzzy slippers and carrying a mug of hot milk. Of course, you would have to be very sure that your guests wouldn't interpret that as a come-on....

Is there some other way to interpret that Goody? Wow...guess I might have made a few unwanted advances in the last few years then...

I know - Herb Alpert and fuzzy slippers...she'd have to beat me away with a stick.

What, you don't like fuzzy slippers, then?!?

I only just now realized how it reads. However, I really do know a guy who would interpret that as "I'm going to bed; you in?" And he is always the guy who stays too late.

I wasn't being sarcastic.

The 25 minute of Dazed and Confused from How the West Was Won.

Failing that I'd get mrs solacks Kate Bush collection out.

You'd have to kick me out with Kate Bush on.

I'm sure I could clear the place with some Erasure or ELO...

How about the Shaggs?
