Week 5 Challenge Submissions

Ok so there's no way I can narrow it down to just one love song so here are my selections:

1) I would dedicate The Beatles' "All You Need is Love" to Famous Dave's. Not only because it is a great song about love of all people, and world peace, but I'm sure if I could sit down with Paul McCartney at Famous Dave's, and order a Feast for Two he would turn from his Vegan ways. I feel that would be a great accomplishment and he would be a welcome addition to the Famous Dave's family.

2) I would dedicate Elvis Presley's "Burning Love" for a number of reasons. The first reason is when I eat at Famous Dave's I often find myself singing "It's just a hunka hunka beef brisket". The second reason is I would love to have had the opportunity to have dinner at FD's with The King and talk about BBQ.

3) Lastly I would dedicate The Platters' "Only You". I mean I think it's the perfect song for Famous Dave's. Only Famous Dave's can make the world seem right. Only Famous Dave's can thrill me like it does. And it's a song by the group The Platters. I think they should change their name to The Upside-Down Garbage Can Lids.

Weekly Challenge #4-Lyrics by...

Here's my submission for this week's challenge which was to write a song about the Not'cho Ordinary Nachos. I have less than zero talent musically so there will be no YouTube video of me singing this...ever. But you can pop in Queen's Greatest Hits and turn on Bohemian Rhapsody, then sing along with my amended Nacho lyrics.

Not’cho Rhapsody

Is this the real life-
Is this just fantasy-
Caught in the nachos-
No escaping from all the meat-
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and breathe-
I’m just so hungry, I need no sympathy-
Because I just want some Nachos,
With pulled pork and jalapeƱos,
Anyway the smoke blows, it just makes me very hungry,
Hungry

Mama, just ordered food,
I asked for the Nachos,
Not’Cho Ordinary ones,
Mama, lunch had just begun,
But now I don’t know if I want Brisket-
Mama ooo,
Didn’t mean to choose just one-
If I’m not back at Famous Dave’s tomorrow-
Have the Beef, have the Beef Brisket on the Nachos-

So great, my lunch has come,
Sends shivers down my spine-
Tummys happy all the time,
Nachos for everybody-But Ive got to go-
Gotta leave you all behind but I’ll return-
Mama ooo- (any way the smoke blows)
I dont want to leave,
I sometimes wish I never had to leave at all-

I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Famous Dave, Famous Dave will you make me the Nachos-
Wilbur Beans and Chili-very very exciting me-
Galileo,galileo,
Galileo galileo
Galileo Nachos-magnifico-
But Im just so hungry and nobody feeds me-
Hes just a poor boy from a poor family-
Spare him his life from being Nacho-free-
Nachos come Nachos go-,They’re all mine and Nat’chos-
Give us some! no-,I will not give you some-give them some-
Give us some! I will not give you some-give them some
Give us some! I will not give you some-give them some
Will not give you some-give them some
Will not give you some-give them some
No,no,no,no,no,no,no-
Mama mia,mama mia, I don’t want to give them some-
Besides I already put Devil Spit on for me, for me, for me-
So you think you can starve me, Devil Spit in my eye-
So you think you can feed me and all is alright-
Oh baby-cant feed these to a baby-
Just gotta get back-just gotta get right back to there-

Nachos really matter,
Anyone can see,
Nachos really matter-,nachos really matter to me,

Any way the smoke blows....

Weekly Challenge #3

This week's challenge is "If you could share a ‘Que for Two with anyone, who would it be? Why?"

I had thought long and hard about it. My first thought would be Jesus. I mean he's got to have some pretty interesting stories huh? Another person I thought of would be any of our former Presidents...again, the stories those guys must have gotta be amazing.

But, after all is said and done, I decided that I would love to share a 'Que for Two with my 8 month old son Zeke. I feel that something like the Legendary 'Que for Two is a tradition that should be passed down from generation to generation. It's sharing dinner time as a family. It's bonding time with a man and his son. Plus he doesn't eat much so that leaves more for me! So I would share my 'Que for Two with Famous Zeke!
