*breaks out into A Jamaican wig, breaks out a boombox and breaks into song* Why can't we be friends? Why can't we be friends? Why can't we be friends....

Seriously, it's really demeaning and pointless for all these personal attacks going on lately(names with held), and it's getting on my nerves. Why not just try and be friends already?!

War, Smash Mouth, and Luke agree!

::cough:: PrinceAli ::cough:: You didnt hear that from me!

i'll join in singing:

life is very short and there's no tiiime
for fussing and fighting my friends

we can work it out
we can work it out

ooooohhh I like singing!!!

Here's mine:

I really dooooooooo appreciate
the fact you're, sitting here.
Your voice sounds sooo wonderful,
but your face don't look to clear.

So baaarmaid bring a pitcher ....

ooops...
Maybe this song isn't quite appropriate for this thread topic

"Ah you know I've never really been that good with friends
I'm gonna let you in 'till I can see the end
Don't call back I'm never late
I talk like I'm fillin' holes on a cake
It ain't that I don't like you you're just better off alone
You just don't wanna get too close to this guy
He'll pick at you like the raisins in a pie
If you got regular size feet
And your aftershave smells sweet
Ah keep yer distance boy, it's curlin' up my toes..."

- Tim Rogers, 1999

OK, maybe not in the spirit of peace and friendship, but I am a bit of a crap friend most of the time.

So a song about peace then?

"Two, one, two, three, four
Ev'rybody's talking about
Bagism, Shagism, Dragism, Madism,
Ragism, Tagism
This-ism, That-ism, is-m, is-m, is-m
All we are saying is give piece a chance,
All we are saying is give piece a chance
C'mon
Ev'rybody's talking about ministers,
Sinister, Banisters
And canisters, Bishops, Fishops,
Rabbis, and Pop eyes, Bye, bye, bye byes
All we are saying is give peace a chance,
All we are saying is give peace a chance
Let me tell you now
Revoluton, evolution, masturbation,
Flagellation, regulation, integrations,
Meditations, United Nations,
Congratulations
Ev'rybody's talking about
John and Yoko, Timmy Leary, Rosemary,
Tommy Smothers, Bobby Dylan,
Tommy Copper,
Derek Taylor, Norman Mailer,
Allen Ginsberg, Hare Krishna,
Hare
Krishna"

- John Lennon, always

I'll add one too

"...Well, I'd like to figure out a way
To leave a troubled past behind
To forget those angry words and wars we fought
Across the battle lines
Cause tomorrow we could find a road to peace
For you and me
And our children, in their innocence
Will follow what they see
Oh, we've got to find a way to live our lives
Though we don't see eye to eye

Oh how easy it would be
To close the door and walk away
I can't walk out when I believe
You are my brother
And we owe it to each other
We've got to try
Though we don't see eye to eye
Eye to eye
...
Oh I'd like to figure out where we stand
Before darkness falls"

How did I know that yours would be any Amy Grant song?

Lucky guess, I suppose. But I think we can all appreciate this one, a selection Pete's Dragon:

"There's room for everyone in this world
If everyone makes some room
Won't you move over and share this world?
Everyone make some room...

Just think how far out the ocean goes
The whirling wind blows
Shore to shore
Door to door
Think of the valleys and mountain tops
The earth never stops
So deep, so high, with miles of sky
We all have part of the pie

There's room for everyone in this world
Will everyone make some room?
Love given freely can spare this world
Let friendly feelings bloom
Just give an inch, give a yard, never flinch
When the time comes to offer a hand
So let's all make sure we give everyone somewhere to stand
Just the way God planned it,
Just the way God planned."

Man, I love that soundtrack.
