Does that mean...that we're....Arwen? ARWEN?? ;-) Very funny, especially "I'll pay dead/ Hide under my bed"...wonderful! 555

"I meant that I love you - however" - awesome! Great job of playing off the original too.

Very Funny, good take

you NEVER return my phone calls .(WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH) ..but i'm gonna keep reading your stuff anyway...cause you write great parodies...5s

"...but she's always a woman to me..."
Another educational one. I must confess that I DKTOS, and I promise return when the song I should learn. Maybe honesty isn't always the best policy, as you've noted, but if you start dodgin' me, I'd want it to be for the right reasons. As a free-read, I especially enjoyed 'sneaking out the back during the solo'.

So what you're saying is, "It's not you, it's me"? Five points, one for each of your personalities!

I can really relate to this...and it's so much more realistic than the original! 555

I like it!! Very nicely done as always, Arwen. =)

you just keep them hanging on 555

"HOWEVER..." was a LOL moment, and I liked the guitar solo comment too - and the Arwen Chronicles take another turn - 555

I agree with Rex!

I loved it... even though I've been on the receiving end of this too many times...

Kristof...no, it doesn't mean that. I mean...I'm going to call you...soon. I promise. ; ) Thanks!

Rex...you all have to know that THAT line was my favorite. Thanks for agreeing with me...=)

That Bastard...oh wow, this is awkward. I really don't know how to say this...but...WHICH 'that bastard' are you? I've met quite a few. Thanks, though...and if you're the 'that bastard' that I think you are...um...I'm still mad at you about that one thing I named you 'that bastard' about...; )

Alvin...hehehe...there there...it really happens to a lot of good men. Consider yourself lucky that you at least got my number...before I started ignoring you. It's more than a lot of guys can say...; ) Thanks!

2nz...aside from the fact that I'm bamboozled that you DKTOS, I am pulling most strongly from your comment that there is, in fact, a right reason to avoid you. Is that true? Spill it. ; ) Oh, and thanks very much...

Michael...thanks for the 5s, and of COURSE that's not what I'm saying. This isn't about you, silly...it's about me. It's not you...it's me. Oh, wait...

Ravyn...you got that right...at least in my life it is! Thanks!

Serafina...thanks...=)...I'm glad you liked it!

Carol...yes I do. And sometimes, I feel sort of bad about it. But then I see some hot guy to take my mind of said bad feelings...; ) Thanks!

Stuart...again with the thanks on my favorite line...and the Arwen Chronicles are more twisted than...um...I'll be back later with a great 'more twisted than _____' line. Until then...thanks!

PMS...hey, so do I! ; ) Thanks a ton!!

MrMacphisto...wow, I'm glad you can praise this even after falling victim to such behavior. You're a tough guy. And the fact that you're doing so well...only means that you're strong enough for some girl to stomp all over your heart again...; ) Thanks!!

Good one Arwen :) And all very true.

HHAHAHAHAAHA!!! Real nice. 55555555555.

Thanks very much, Pippin and Huff! =)

It's fine with me if you play dead. I'm a necrophiliac.

Nice play on the original there.

Tony...oh GOOD. It was my worry that you WEREN'T that made me want to dodge you in the first place...; ) Thanks!

Kyla...thanks very much!

I actually have a half-written song called "Keep On Snubbing You" to this very tune. Great minds think alike! (Bassturd ). Well done, now I can rip my version to pieces knowing it was done as it should be =)

Jeff! Glad to see you, and glad to know that my mind might work in a manner even slightly similar to yours. =) (although you should finish yours and post it, so as to school me...) Thanks a bunch!!

SOOOO Great! I LedOL at HOWEVER, but I wish you would have spelled it HOWEVERRRRR the way the lead singer says it!

If all I ever do in life is get your approval, Ash...I will be happy. I will be happier if I get your approval and I'm married to Vin Diesel...but...you get the picture. Thanks!

Hey Arwen, long time no...dang!

SOTM - There's no guarantee that it will still be there when YOU (Whoever you are) read this, but I found the original song here:

www.smooveb.co.uk/Mullet_Rock/FTM1/ftm1.htm

[SOTM] Freakin' awesome!!! 555

(SOTM) see above - um , you wouldn't play dead and hide under your bed at the same time would you, Arwen? because surely one of the two would be superfluous, I'm thinking - but on the other hand, it WOULD really drive the point home - LOL - (d'you reckon Carrie Bradshaw ever chanelled you, by any chance?)

(SOTM) There's no avoiding the clever songwriting here.

(SOTM) dktos soz

(SOTM) I had been avoiding this parody because "Keep Me Hangin' On" for some reason kept popping in my head when I read the title. Alas, with the link Peter provided I now know TOS. I have to say that karaoking this perfectly paced and rhymed parody made me LOL since it would....nevermind. Great stuff Arwen. 555

Geeze another song about me, I told you I was sorry about the Dancing Like A Dork thing... LOL... 5's

So THAT'S why you didn't show up at the wedding. You could have told me this before I sent out all the invitations and stuff. Ah well, it turned out for the best: this being Utah, I married all the bridesmaids.

I don't know what impresses me most: the "I love you, HOWEVER" line or the fact that you got Sister Kicksass to make a rare guest appearance. Nice coup.

(SOTM) This is hilarious!! Such a demented love song is worthy of Mr. Yankovic himself. Brilliant.

A very well done parody with a lot of clever substitutions. I, too, liked the "however" for "forever," and also the "peep/keep" for "sleep/keep."

(SOTM) Loved this, particularly the guitar solo comment :-)

C'mon, why did two basterds have to give this a triple one vote??? I hope Santy Claus puts a lump of coal in each of their stockings...this parody was NOT the least bit off paced.

Lovely, simply lovely - especially the "forever"/"however.." substitution. Definitely one of the ten so far in my top five ;-)

SOTM - Weird. I seem to have been avoiding this parody. It was brilliant and all, I did actually read it last month... umm, alright I have no excuse. I was just um, well, you see... well, I am here now, aren't I?

(SOTM) See above...WAY up at the very top!

(SOTM) Interesting...I vaguely remember this OS. I believe you though. Not bad.

(SOTM) Perfect reversal of the OS, brilliant!

Add me to the list of "HOWEVER"-lovers. A true Arwen parody.

Loved the "sneak out the back door during the guitar solo" line, among many others. 555

What a great guitar solo... where'd she go?
I'm still a fan, or as much of one as I can be without knowing the original. I found some sites that used to have the mp3, but it has since been removed. You'll have to trust that I enjoyed it the second time around based purely on the free-read fun.

Arwen; your parody is very funny.. but it reads more like lyrics... SInce I'm starting a couple of bands which have a heavy REO Speedwagon influence with them... May I copy the words to your parody,and maybe use them in a better way?

Alyssa...I would really REALLY prefer that you didn't. And I have a pretty sharp attorney on speed dial who would also prefer that you didn't. I never throw down the actual copyright info at the bottom of my parodies like some folks do...as I usually frown upon legalities. As a pointer though, telling me that you could do something "better" with what I've put my heart and soul into...doesn't do so much for my charitable side. Sorry...

Oh wow...a bunch of folks who should have gotten thanks that didn't...sorry guys!! You're all awesome!!

Make that 3 basterds. That kind of thing is just dumb. (Straight ones, that is.)
