Reply | 3 Sep 2010, 09:51:47 In reply to NightClub Re: SONGS WITH A CHESS THEME my way has to be the ultimate chess song....with a few minor changes to the lyrics Song : My Way And now, the end is near; And so I face the mating curtain. My friend, I'll say it clear, I'll state my case, of which I'm certain. I've played, in style that's true. I've traveled each and ev'ry highway; But more, much more than this, I played it my way. Regrets, more than a few; But then again, too bad to mention. I did what I had to do And saw it through without exemption. I teamed my rook and horse; with careful moves along the byway, And still, I stuffed it up, but I did it my way. Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew When I bit off more than I could chew. But through it all, when there was doubt, I kicked the dog and threw it out. I faced it all and I stood tall; And did it my way. I've loved, I've laughed and cried. I've had my fill; my share of losing. And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing. To think I did all that; And may I say - not in a shy way, "No, oh no not me, I did it my way". For what am I what have I got? If not myself, then I have nowt. To do the things I truly feel; And not the deeds of one who kneels. The record shows I took the blows - And did it my way!

Reply | 3 Sep 2010, 13:37:35 In reply to pennine Re: SONGS WITH A CHESS THEME very impressive! Im afraid its the song of all chessplayers, and the highest honors go to the few who take the blows and still never give up, and who will continue to play the games as only they can see fit. THEIR WAY. Thats why I often look up to lower rated players and try to never miss a chance to tell them they are a good player, but my words allways miss the mark, because the meaning gets lost in translation. what i cant help admiring is the constant originality and superb inventiveness. Thats the plus side of doing it your way, and no one can ever take that AWAY FROM YOU!
