Bob Stone
Is anything known about songwriter Bob Stone, the man responsible for "Gypsys Tramps and Thieves"? What was his background and whatever became of him? He seems to have been involved with the songs for Beyond the Valley of the Dolls, but other than that I can't find out anything about him. -- 85.210.181.6 (talk) 11:12, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

I aready found an example of a 311.121.221 instrument, the berimbau, there is no need to post a instrument to that number.187.89.97.146 (talk) 02:05, 14 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Carillons would be 111.242.222 . Handbells would come somewhere in the 111.242 part as well, but I'm not sure exactly where - it might depend on how you rang them! AJHW (talk) 13:01, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Anime movies on Teletoon
I remember that Teletoon showed anime three movies: one about astronauts, second is like inuyasha but the main character is female and it contain nudity and the third forgot. Do anyone know the names of these movies? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.14.117.203 (talk) 17:12, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Music on YouTube clip
Just wondering if anyone can help me identify the classical music (it may be modern pretending to be classical) from 00:03 - 00:07 and then 00:17 - 00:22 on this clip. 

Any ideas would be wonderful. Thanks --Coolcato (talk) 19:03, 12 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks for all of your responses ;-) I figured it out anyway, it's called Balcony Scene (apparently on the Romeo and Juliet Soundtrack) You can hear the full track here if you care, it makes me cry at night --Coolcato (talk) 14:15, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
