Is there a song with your name???

Y-e-e-ess.

And I hate it, because I was teased with it. "Rockin' Robin."

URGH.
 
Yes, though I'm going to be oblique about it since I generally don't post my name.

It's a song entreating a woman with my nickname to not lose something necessary in order to reach out in the future if she has a change of heart.
 
I know that song, tovlo. It's a good song.

Well, I searched lyrics.com with my name, and got 112 results. Here are a few of the highlights:

2. J.K.A. and the Band - Dylan Meets Cassius Clay
12. Psychic U-Turn - Dylan's Revenge
24. Pepper Adams - Dylan's Delight
26. Tangerine Dream - Dylan's at Home Alone [Tangerine Dream ftw! :D]
32. James Blundell - Dylan, Diana and God
40. Tangerine Dream - Dylan's Triumph
43. The Black Watch - Dylan, Dylan, Dylan
51. Tangerine Dream - Dylan's Dream

Oh, no, I've been discovered. ;)

Yeah, it's not bad if you have to have a song with your name. I didn't get teased or annoyed by it or anything.

Now there was an irritating 80's song that rhymed with my name and I did get friendly teasing with that. Let's see how good you are with this one.

It had a cheerleader theme associated and it spoke of someone being so "fine". :)

The Last Time I Saw Richard
by Joni Mitchell

The last time I saw Richard was Detroit in '68
And he told me all romantics meet the same fate someday
Cynical and drunk and boring someone in some dark cafe
You laugh he said you think you're immune
Go look at your eyes they're full of moon
You like roses and kisses and pretty men to tell you
All those pretty lies pretty lies
When you gonna realize they're only pretty lies
Only pretty lies just pretty lies

He put a quarter in the Wurlitzer and he pushed
Three buttons and the thing began to whirr
And a bar maid came by in fishnet stockings and a bow tie
And she said "Drink up now it's gettin' on time to close"
"Richard, you haven't really changed" I said
It's just that now you're romanticizing some pain that's in your head
You got tombs in your eyes but the songs you punched are dreaming
Listen, they sing of love so sweet, love so sweet
When you gonna get yourself back on your feet?
Oh and love can be so sweet Love so sweet

Richard got married to a figure skater
And he bought her a dishwasher and a coffee percolator
And he drinks at home now most nights with the TV on
And all the house lights left up bright
I'm gonna blow this damn candle out
I don't want nobody comin' over to my table
I got nothing to talk to anybody about
All good dreamers pass this way some day
Hidin' behind bottles in dark cafes dark cafes
Only a dark cocoon before I get my gorgeous wings and fly away
Only a phase these dark cafe days

For Richard lyrics
by Caravan

Sometimes, I'm thinking
Whatever did I do?
Nights are always chilly
In these days of youth

Streets outside are empty
No-one can be seen
Wisdom points a finger
To the judgement that's been

I have found some but they don't really suit me. they are about coldish heartbreaker types
But Christina by Gorky's Zygotic Mynci is still fun to listen to.

Oh snap, how'd I miss this when it was originally posted?

Heh, you didn't even need to mention the cheerleader theme, I knew it after "an irritating 80's song that rhymed with my name."

Ch-boom, boom-ch. :D
 
Yes, and I hate them all.

Though I always wished my name was either Angie, Annnnnnngie or ROOOOxannne...
 
Hehe,
well while in Argentina, I met a girl named Macarena (poor dear). Her childhood is pretty much scarred by that blasted song.

Poor dear indeed! Ouch!

(And I don't mean that in reference to her name, I mean it in reference to what she must have endured because of the song...ouch!)
 
I wonder if I should keep my St. Christopher medal?
They say it might go up in value - years from now.
Maybe I could hock it for a couple of tickets to some broadway show.
Maybe he'll be reinstated - I just don't know ...

I'll be impressed if anyone knows who it's by
 
eleanor rigby- the beatles
elenore- the turtles (different spelling)
 
Yes, there is more than one song with my name, which is plenty enough. I'm not going to say the song because I don't like it or the artist or being called the artist and because I don't want to say my real name on the forums.
 
ooh. okay, so there are a few.
