There was a donnybrook about whether things were glame enough? Jeez, I miss all the juicy stuff 'round here. @kemiladashdot, I wish we could give likes to comments on TIMJ! :)
@BertrandRustles@jackiepatie Near death must be ok as the guy is singing about his being about to die, eg Seasons In The Sun, unless this is your plan to prevent anyone trying to jam that under the #GlumWeek tag........ oh I see
@BertrandRustles Thank you for that. I must say I hadn't realised we'd clashed. The full saying is: "Great minds think alike. Idiots seldom differ." Which one are we? You choose.
Oh, dear, I hope #GlumWeek isn't reflecting your frame of mind, good sir @BertrandRustles! But to add to the controversy of 'getting it right', what about people who have officially been pronounced dead then get revived?
Way to go, @thisismymistake and @MJHasOwlEyes!
What always alarmed me was imagining Betty wearing Jimmy's ring for real, had she been riding pillion at the time of his accident..... If that joke is too risque for you here, please only look at it after the 9pm watershed each day. Ignore at all other times. Thanks.
lols...was feeling glum till i found your page...this track had me in tears as a little teenie.love jackiepatie,off their now... 10/10----great track too:)
@kzone8 I'm afraid it must be the reporting of an actual death or an actual death occurrence during the song. Pre-empting or anticipatory death does not apply. Sorry :-)

Just one death!!! Call that glum ?
BertrandRustles
@kemiladashdot HAAAAAAAHAHAA. #GlumWeekFail
jackiepatie
What about if someone is near death and it's not looking good? I don't want to get this wrong *frets*
BertrandRustles
@jackiepatie You will be set upon by the #GlumJamFailPolice. Near death is UNNACCEPTABLE. Actual death only please.
BertrandRustles
@jackiepatie The one with the most deaths wins the #SuperGlumJam award.

Credit where it's due, I've just noticed that @leejohnson also suggested a #GlumWeek yesterday. Great minds etc etc.

AlicejustMay
Ah - you answered my query above. How careless of me not to have noticed :)
AlicejustMay
Or should that be :(
BertrandRustles
@AlicejustMay Haha NO! I am Happy as a clam/sandboy/larry etc. You have your answer but now I am completely entranced by your #ZombieJam idea :)
AlicejustMay
Hahahaha!
eops
I played this at the Sebright the other week - much singing along ensued.

leejohnson
And if you need that joke explaining to you, get a wider experience of life!!!!
BertrandRustles
@leejohnson Haha. I think we've all been around enough to picture that scenario...

kzone8
@BertrandRustles So just to be clear, would Warren Zevon's "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" count for #GlumWeek?
kzone8
I once went to a Halloween karaoke party where someone did this song, complete with plastic scooter. It's a good song for camp.

BertrandRustles
@kzone8 Although at @AlicejustMay's suggestion we may consider risen from the grave content #ZombieJams
AlicejustMay
You know, I'm warming to the idea...
lindatee
@AlicejustMay Me too - I kinda like liserable songs - but thought the death thing a bit of a challenge - however I keep thinking of them now!
lindatee
I used to think I could type!

At school I was in a group called The Harlotettes (and?). We performed a moving version of this classic. That is all.
