Why are there so many songs about rainbows, and what's on the other side?



mnottertail -> RE: Why are there so many songs about rainbows? (11/18/2009 1:40:45 PM)

because toilets are hard to sing happy, inquisitive, whimsical songs about, I suppose. And everybody pretty much knows whats in em.

because they are ephemeral, and mystical ( appear solid but aren't), and you can't walk up to one, and the leprecarn keeps his gold at the base of one - and just try to find the end of the rainbow!!!!

and they are more interesting than singing about cemetaries and dying and incontinence and pain and fear.

There are a lot of lazy people out there just looking for their pot of gold instead of going to work...

I actually only know two songs on this topic. One is sung by a frog and you are quoting it. The other one also talks about blue birds.

Debbie Harry and Kermit Rainbow Connection

Really pretty song. I guess I forgot I'm always chasing rainbows.



angelikaJ -> RE: Why are there so many songs about rainbows? (11/18/2009 4:52:47 PM)

This is the first "rainbow song" I remember.

Rainbows are visions, but only illusions. And rainbows have nothing to hide.

So we've been told and some choose to believe it.

I know they're wrong, wait and see.

Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection.

The lovers, the dreamers and me.

I've always loved that song.



DemonKia -> RE: Why are there so many songs about rainbows? (11/19/2009 10:26:01 AM)

lol

It's one of the few songs in the world I know all the lyrics to, that I can sing a capella . . . . .

"Rainbow in the Dark" - Ronnie James Dio



Llyren -> RE: Why are there so many songs about rainbows? (11/19/2009 3:44:56 PM)

There's also a band called Rainbow.  Or at least there was.   Ronnie James Dio was the singer for that for a while.  And he allegedly plays D&D.



Level -> RE: Why are there so many songs about rainbows? (11/19/2009 3:56:44 PM)

Yes indeed, and they had a song called "Catch the Rainbow", the self-referring bastiches [:D]



Llyren -> RE: Why are there so many songs about rainbows? (11/19/2009 4:07:01 PM)

Ritchie Blackmore wasn't exactly known for being subtle.



Level -> RE: Why are there so many songs about rainbows? (11/19/2009 4:10:44 PM)

No, he wasn't. Rainbow was the first group I ever saw in concert; good show, except when his guitar string kept breaking, and he about pitched a fit.
