    Hello Henri,

    MvdV>> Nothing yet...


    Sorry Michiel,
    but I could not resist in answering this with an old popsong of the 70's:

    Cool!

    Bachman Turner Overdrive

    Great band.

    You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet.

    Great song. Also enjoy some of their other hits.
    Such as "Takin' Care of Business". And "Let It Ride".

    Randy Bachman wrote the lyrics to "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet.
    But made two recordings. This is the second recording.
    You do realize why BTO made two recordings? And what this
    version is all about?

    I met a devil woman.
    She took my heart away.
    She said I had it coming to me.
    But I wanted it that way.

    I think that any love is good lovin.
    So I took what I could get.
    mmm oeoee oee
    She looked at me with her big brown eyes
    And said.

    You've ain't seen nothing yet
    Bbbbaby, You've just ain't seen nnnnothing yet!
    Here's something that you're never gonna forget!!
    Bbbbaby, You've just ain't seen nnnnothing yet

    And now I'm feeling better.
    Cause I found out for sure.
    She took me to her doctor.
    And he told me I was cured.

    He said that any love is good love
    So I took what I could get
    Yes I took what I could get
    And then she looked at me with her big brown eyes and said:

    You've ain't seen nothing yet
    bbbbaby you've just ain't seen nnnnothing yet
    Here's something, here's something you're never gonna ffforget baby!
    You know, You know, You know You've just ain't seen nothing yet!

    Any love is good lovin
    So I took what I could get
    Yes I took what I could get
    And then, and then she looked at me with her big brown eyes and said:

    You've ain't seen nothing yet
    baby you've just ain't seen nnnnothing yet!
    Here's something, here's something, here's something you're never forget baby!
    baby, baby,baby,baby You've seen nnnnothing yet!

    You've ain't seen nothing yet!
    I know I ain't seen nothing yet!
    I know I ain't seen nothing yet!
    But I ain't seen nothin yet!

    End.

    It is still hard for me that nobody can seem to figure out what
    the song means. Even when it is so obvious.

    At the end of every year between Christmas and New Years Day you can hear this song at the Dutch radio NPO2 Top2000.

    There is a reason why this song can be heard every year at that
    time at the Dutch radio NPO2 Top2000.

    Then I listen to most old songs with the songtext on my computer screen and
    my one and only bad half right ear.

    Then there should be no excuse for you to understand what the song
    means.

    It reminds me of my schoolyears listening to Hilversum 3 during homework.

    Well, if you were one of the boys who only thought about sex
    all the time it should have been obvious to you.

    However, not everybody in this forum is as enlightened as you.
    And since I know the true meaning of Randy's words (lyrics) then
    I'll have to explain what it is all about.

    The song is about a guy having sex with a pre-op transexual who
    still has "something that you never gonna forget." It's right there
    in the lyrics, as you quoted for all to read -

    And now I'm feelin better.
    Cause I found out for sure.
    She took me to her doctor.
    And he told me of a cure.

    Read what Randy is saying.
    He is saying he "found out for sure"
    from her doctor [who gave her the
    breast implants], and told him, "any
    love is good love" so he took what
    he could get.

    You see, Randy was poking fun of his little brother Tim,
    who was a stutterer. And what better way to do so than a song?

    B-b-b-baby, you just ain't seen n-n-nothin' yet!
