The key of E it is a two step waltz, but in most cases timing is not followed exactly, because of the fills. Acoustic solo is excellent place for expression and improv. But with a group it is a bit difficult unless the band knows how you improvise and can play along.

I'm pretty sure this is in 4/4 timing. It's tempo is pretty normal maybe Andante.
The chord progression is, E, A, E on the first bar, and then E, B7 on the next bar.
Like so:
E                          A
                         
                         
   E
I've got a good woman at home who thinks I do no wrong
E                         
;                         
;               B7
But sometimes lord, she just ain't always around

That's a bingo!

Christoph Waltz absolutely carried that film!

Christoph Waltz absolutely carried that film!

...and so we come full circle.
As it mentions at the bottom of the first page of music, the (now infamous) Nokia ringtone was itself based on four bars from Tarrega's "Waltz in A Minor", or "Gran Vals".

This is like one of those situations where you've got a "Novelization of the Film"...based on a movie...that was itself based on a novel in the first place.

I've become too spoiled.

I feel like the best film I saw this year was Up, but that too was somewhat of a disappointment because of all the uber-hype; as for all the Avatars and Star Treks, and Moons, and Slumdog Millionaires - yes, they were very enjoyable, but all either felt like pure entertainment movies with little substance (the former two) or really good films with a couple of unforgivable weaknesses (latter ones)

Haven't seen The Road or The Wrestler yet, though. Also thought Inglorious Basterds was extremely overrated and the only REALLY good thing about it was Cristopher Waltz.

I know I accidentally clicked it and didn;t realise till after and didn;t know how to undo..sorry

Great quote. Great message. Great lesson. Great Representative. Very poignant. "The Art of War" remains one of my very favorite philosophical texts, and I cannot think of a better quote for the situation we as a country were left in by the previous administration. Just replace "Feudal Lords" with "opposition party," and you have a very clear picture of what is actually going on in Washington.

Just think... what if Bush had given the order to overwhelm Tora Bora instead of just letting Bin Laden waltz out of his cave undisturbed? We had him cornered, but Bush let him walk free. There's no other way to spin the facts.

Wa-oo-oo, wa-oo-oo,
Wa-oo wa-oo wa-oo wa-ay...
Wa-oo-oo, wa-oo-oo,
Wa-oo wa-oo wa-oo wa-ay...


Sittin' by de ocean
Me heart, she feel so sad,
Sittin' by de ocean,
Me heart, she feel so sad...
Don't got de money
To take me back to Trinidad.


Fine calypso woman,
She cook me shrimp and rice,
Fine calypso woman,
She cook me shrimp and rice...
Dese yankee hot dogs
Don't treat me stomach very nice.


In Trinidad, one dollar buy
Papaya juice, banana pie,
Six coconut, one female goat,
An' plenty fish to fill de boat.


One bushel bread, one barrel wine,
An' all de town, she come to dine.
But here is bad, one dollar buy
Cup of coffee, ham on rye.


Me throat she sick from necktie,
Me feet she hurt from shoes.
Me pocket full of empty,
I got Calypso blues.

(conga solo)

Dese yankee girl give me big scare,
Is black de root, is blonde de hair.
Her eyelash false, her face is paint,
And pads are where de girl she ain't!


She jitterbug when she should waltz,
I even think her name is false.
But calypso girl is good a lot,
Is what you see, is what she got.


Sittin' by de ocean
Me heart, she feel so sad,
Don't got de money
To take me back to Trinidad.


Wa-oo-oo, wa-oo-oo,
Wa-oo wa-oo wa-oo wa-ay...
Wa-oo-oo, wa-oo-oo,
Wa-oo wa-oo wa-oo wa-ay...

Much, much respect for the length of it, since most couples usually last only 1-2 minutes (my wedding was no exception), and even more so because swing is a lot more physically taxing than your usual wedding waltz. Very very nice

*EDIT* Btw, my favorite video of lindyhop on the sift: http://www.videosift.com/video/Ultimate-Lindy-Hop-Showdown-2006

Wasted and wounded, it ain't what the moon did
I've got what I paid for now
see ya tomorrow, hey Frank, can I borrow
a couple of bucks from you, to go
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda, you'll go waltzing
Matilda with me

I'm an innocent victim of a blinded alley
and I'm tired of all these soldiers here
no one speaks English, and everything's broken
and my Stacys are soaking wet
to go waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda, you'll go waltzing Matilda with me

now the dogs are barking
and the taxi cab's parking
a lot they can do for me
I begged you to stab me
you tore my shirt open
and I'm down on my knees tonight
Old Bushmill's I staggered, you buried the dagger in
your silhouette window light to go
waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda, you'll go waltzing
Matilda with me

now I lost my Saint Christopher now that I've kissed her and the one-armed bandit knows, and the maverick Chinamen, and the cold-blooded signs
and the girls down by the strip-tease shows go
waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda, you'll go waltzing Matilda with me

no, I don't want your sympathy, the fugitives say that the streets aren't for dreaming now
manslaughter dragnets and the ghosts that sell memories
they want a piece of the action anyhow go
waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda, you'll go waltzing Matilda with me

and you can ask any sailor, and the keys from the jailor
and the old men in wheelchairs know
that Matilda's the defendant, she killed about a hundred
and she follows wherever you may go
waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda, you'll go waltzing
Matilda with me

and it's a battered old suitcase to a hotel someplace
and a wound that will never heal
no prima donna, the perfume is on
an old shirt that is stained with blood and whiskey
and goodnight to the street sweepers
the night watchman flame keepers
and goodnight to Matilda too
