Got me hoping you’ll page me right now

Why didn’t Beyoncé have a mobile phone in 2003?

Presumably because “page me” scans better with “crazy” than “phone me”

 

[Norman_Conquest]

Even @r00fie1 had a Nokia then. winky.

Can’t remember when I got my first mobile phone but it was in the 90s.

Trying to find a word that rhymes and fits 'cos you don't want to change what you've already got - even if it doesn't really make sense under scrutiny.

Just been working on a new song and have a bridge that centred around the word "smitten".

Ended up rewriting a part of it and managed to remove "smitten" but continued with that rhyme for no good reason other than it was already in place.

The joys of songwriting

mitten - which is what youv'e got left after losing one of them. Sort of parody of losing out in love n that wot a lot of songsters wwrite about eg
I remember the day when you had me smitten
just like that time you lost a mitten
I turned up to play with your kitten
saw your note , for me you'd written

Some of us don't even have a Nokia now. ;-)

I can’t imagine Beyone was encouraging one of her work colleagues to page her about the last Gantt chart she did or whatever.

Pagers were before mobile phones and a lot more popular in the US than they were here.

Yeah but not by 2003.

Kelly Rowland couldn’t help her either. She was busy trying to text people on Excel and getting mad when they didn’t reply.

I know but the song was written in 2003.

Perhaps it stayed in the American vernacular..

They used to call cars horseless carriages y’gnar

Smitten/no shìttin' easy life.

Anyway, time for some music.

 

[Scrote]

It's okay - I've taken a steer from this thread and reworked it completely:

I dialled you on my cell
did you not hear the bell
I needed someone to pick up
to arrange horseless carriage pick up

(duplicate rhymes are the in thing)

The songs called "Where's My Effing Taxi"

Boro Cars?
