ainsz 112 Posted December 23, 2012 What a legend Deano was. One of my favourite songs by him is Gentle On My Mind. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boss Falcone 0 Posted December 23, 2012 I Just started listening to his songs like the last 2 days. My Favorite is LITTLE OLD WINE DRINKER ME And it's his death Anniversary in 2 days. There is a saying Old is Gold Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Typhus 1,366 Posted December 23, 2012 Isn't it true that his image as a drinker was a complete fabrication and he was, in fact, a very serious and professional man? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marlowe. 15 Posted December 23, 2012 Isn't it true that his image as a drinker was a complete fabrication and he was, in fact, a very serious and professional man? True at the beginning of his career. But I've read he eventually did become a huge alcoholic, as well a kleptomaniac. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EscoLehGo 8 Posted December 24, 2012 Wasn't he the one that sang that duet about trying to basically date rape some chick by feeding her more alcohol and trying to convince her it was too cold to leave? Not trolling, just genuinely find that song creepy. Apologies if it's not him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tchuck 3,156 Posted December 24, 2012 Wasn't he the one that sang that duet about trying to basically date rape some chick by feeding her more alcohol and trying to convince her it was too cold to leave? Not trolling, just genuinely find that song creepy. Apologies if it's not him. Hello Maddox! The song is called "Baby It's Cold Outside". He was one of the many performers who sang it, yes. The other week Stephen Colbert also sang it. I don't see it as a song about date raping, though with the appropriate mindset anything can become really dirty. On topic: He was one of my favourite performers, alongside Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra. I listen to his music on an almost daily basis, and I've seen some of his movies with Jerry Lewis, very entertaining. Good inspiration for romancing girls. He was indeed the King of Cool.

Don't get the Maddox reference but I don't know, I just remember hearing that song as an adult and really listening to it and just getting a date rape theme from it. I don't think people would find it appropriate now if say Justin Timberlake or some other pop artist put out a song with a similar context in this day and age, it was a different time and political correctness wasn't lurking around every corner like it is now I guess. Could just be me though I guess, but I mean, just listen it to it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Finn 7 five 11 928 Posted December 25, 2012 Isn't it true that his image as a drinker was a complete fabrication and he was, in fact, a very serious and professional man? Most probably correct I would say, he's like the badass Charlie Sheen is, but much less of a dumbass in that he only looks like a badass. ^That video above was good by the way. "His idea of comedy is playing back pearl harbour with a laugh track". Hahahaha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
