I'm really  enjoying the new Franz Ferdinand cd.....and special shout out to cesariohaines and monkeysmama (and carolc, even though we're not lj friends), there's a great song called Eleanor Put your Boots on.

Hee!

eta:

Eleanor put those boots back on
Kick the heels into the Brooklyn dirt
I know it isn't dignified to run
But if you run You can run to the Coney Island rollercoaster
Ride to the highest point and leap across the filthy water
Leap until the Gulf Stream's brought you down

I could be there when you land

So Eleanor take a Greenpoint three-point turn
Towards the hidden sun
You know you are so elegant when you run
Oh if you run
You can run to that statue with the dictionary
Climb to her fingernail and
Leap, yeah take an atmospheric leap
Let the jet stream set you down

I could be there when you land

So Eleanor put those boots back on
Put the boots back on and run
Come on over here

That's AWESOME! There is also a song called "Eleanor" by Low Million. I have an iTunes Baby Mix and I'll have to add that.

Kickass

I just posted the lyrics for ya, too

I remember when I did the itunes search for our names, then for the dog, Sammy and actually found a song called "Sammy the Dog" Endless hours of giggles ensued....

Yay! :)

I'll have to go over to iTunes and give it a listen! I can play it for Ellie whilst I read her her "Eleanor, Ellatony, Ellencake, and Me" book!
