Bangkok Reports

That being said, when in the bars, I prefer the fast Issan songs, they remind me of Indonesian dangdut which I think is great music. (Mainly for the reasons banana boi mentions a couple of posts before this one.)

You know enough of the language to pick difference between songs in Thai and in Isaan? I know because I understand the later somewhat less well and it has different tones, although tones are a bit hidden by songs. The very basic Isaan words give it away.

Jao si bpai sai? Where will you will go? In Thai: Khun ja bpai nai? I probably have only 100 to 200 words of very common Isaan vocab, enough to get by, and fortunately many words are the same as Thai just pronounced a bit differently.

Het ee-yang What are you doing?

I do have an App on the phone to learn Lao which is close enough to Isaan speech. However requires one to be quite studious.

Isaan actually sounds quite ugly compared to Thai, especially when extra loud which is common.

Isaan Karaoke ballads are really uninteresting to me, but had to put up with a lot of that for Songkran. Seems those in the Isaan province don't like to sing Thai songs, only Isaan songs, so I did not know any of them at all. Sometimes a pacey amusing Thai song can be fun in a gogo bar and having the girls do a bit of "Mor Ram" dancing. Best when they are funny songs not serious.

Some of the Carabao rock songs are okay For my taste, but modern Thai pop not much good for me.

When I go to karaoke with educated Thais from the office, they sing Thai pop songs and I find those songs to be pretty good. I don't like the ballads, but the fast pop songs I do like. My very first visit to Bangkok, the girls in the office bought me a Nicole Theriault CD since I commented on how much I liked it when they sang that Busaba song at karaoke. There's something quite charming about very cute office girls singing those songs. That was a long time ago, but this song is pretty well representative of Thai Pop.

Re. Music. Thai dance music is the best music. Don't really care about the music. Just like when Thai girls go insane when they are mao mak mak at 2 am in a Pattaya gogo bar.

Many of us have always been irked that many places play music the gals like and not music the patrons like. Cactus when John was running it was really great. Some great tunes ranging from classic rock, to alt-new wave, to blues, to alt-country; it was great. When I first came most Cowboy bars played at least some rock. GoGos used to be a great place to drink with all your buddies. Not to expensive and then you could grab a gal when you were ready to shag. Midnight was unreal before the Arab bought it (twas his first bar). 100 Baht drinks and lady drinks, 500 Baht BF included use of ST room upstairs, and gals happy with 1 k. Used to sit in the back booth for hours on end, pop upstairs for a romp, then back downstairs to hang out with friends. Good playlist as well when Aussie Mark was running the place.

I should have snuck a photo from distance of the skinny beauty I liked. Then we would have to debate if was same one. I recall jean shorts I think and very pretty face.

Prettiest hooker in all Asia is a bit ridiculous. None of us are likely to be able complete such a survey. However I will say that one glance at her, and no thought required from me. Drop dead hot and gorgeous. From a glance I would score the face a 9 points. All natural, nothing fake looking about her at all. Being deaf, who cares?

I think I first saw her early this year or late last year. Yes mostly off more than on. Could have been below age. I don't know. I have certainly done below age girls before, but not on purpose. I just did not realise, especially when some on them are mothers, you just don't think of it.

If she gets stampeded by too many guys, she might stop coming there, not sure. Unfortunately none of the other deaf girls can compete with her looks. Maybe will have to have a ridiculous offer ready for her next time. Ha ha

In all seriousness I would pay her price.

But it would have 2 be BBFS, I'm guessing that's why she doesn't like me.

I'm sure I asked for that, and she marked me as persona non great lmao!

Hookers can't hurt me LOL.

If they reject me I get what I want from some other hooker, they lose (I'm guessing she goes home without any money some nights) her choice.

I will get what I want (trust me) it may just take me a few more minutes 2 find it.

If you have a pocket full of baht in Thailand, don't fret everything will be OK LOL.

Prettiest hooker in all of Asia? I was being a tad hyperbolic.

But its possible its also true, I would give her a 10 on any continent.

I'm guessing we are talking about the same one!

But I think drop dead hot and gorgeous is no different than the prettiest face is Asia.

Deaf who cares? You could cut her legs and arms off and I would still do her!

Ala the movie, boxing Helena.

Maybe a charitable soul can ID her from one of the YT vids on streetwalkers.

If this is the same one that was out there, Dec. / Jan. / Feb. On and off, mostly off.

If you thought the lyrics back then were junky, I wonder why you have to say about contemporary rock, or other genres of music. It would be interesting to know.

Too me, for any huge mega hit, the music was always far more important than the lyrics, hence I have always been happy to listen to music with no singing. However I am quite sure others would disagree me. Pink Floyd maybe had a lot fans via lyrics as well as the music. My favourite Pink F album was Wish You Were Here, minimal lyrics really. Does any big hit ever have really shit music? Perhaps in the modern day it does happen. However crappy lyrics has never been a big issue.

I am not generally a big fan of Ballads type of rock (Phil Collins was an exception though), more when the music has pace and some power about it, but not to heavy metal style. Not a fan of the rock and roll era. Even the beetles, the music backing was a bit simplistic for my taste generally. Some funky stuff appealed to me. Lyrics good or bad have never been my main focus. So just musically oriented. Big fan of Sting, a very talented song writer. Quite musical and interesting.

Best quality Techno and Reggae, are fine for me.

I am not a fan of current pop music generally, where very long phrases are sung on a single musical note or tone, or maybe only minimal changes of tone in the phrase. This is the current trend but not very melodic. One of the very early songs to have a very small tone variations was the verse from "Horse with no Name". It was sort of appropriate to the dreary feeling of the song being in the dessert plodding and looking for water. However now most songs try to have minimal melody in the verse. Repeating the same note / tone many times is the current formula. Not a fan of a lot of modern cutesy pop. I can listen to songs from Sia and Rihanna (singers with oomf) because they can be quite musical at times. Many of Rihanna songs have crappy repeated lyrics, so what? Naturally hate modern disco stuff (car alarm music as one guy called it). Mostly like Latin songs, e. G. "Tengo la Camisa Nehra" just one example, even if understand minimal Spanish.

Everyone can have very different musical choice. One day went into Jungle Jims or was it Cactus. The expat requesting all the music videos was getting them to play early 70's heavy ugly rock, by very obscure bands I never saw before. The girls could not dance to it all. Ha ha. Very unsuitable. I would rather have had some latin or even Nikki Minaj. Something danceable.

Seems those in the Isaan province don't like to sing Thai songs, only Isaan songs, so I did not know any of them at all.

But I would love to do her.

If this is the same one that was out there, Dec. / Jan. / Feb. On and off, mostly off.

I did see several 30 something white guys taking her (never anything but well dressed fit guys).

On several occasions, I don't know what kinda deal they made, and no idea.

What if anything she delivered?

I will say she could be the prettiest hooker face in all of Asia LOL.

Wait for it LOL.

The stampede to find her!

Good luck.

I don't think they are talking about the one you (and I) saw back then. I have not seen that one around for perhaps two months. Unless she comes out of hiding momentarily and immediately gets scooped up for LT. Hard to believe she did LT though.

I saw her close some deals and walk off toward a ST hotel with the same types of punters you mentioned. It never appeared as though she was happy to close the deal, never looked like she was happy to "go to work" as she marched oblivious three steps ahead of her customer and I never saw her being repeated by a customer.

Incidentally Bob Dylan was awarded the Nobel Prize in 2016 for his contribution to Literature and most of his best remembered works came from the 60's and 70's.

What's your point LOL.

[Blanquiceleste]

Possibly I was not paying a great deal to Rock music when that came out. Started paying more attention to Rock in the late 70's. Certainly did not analyse the words. Most lyrics were junky in those days, phrases repeated many times, so I cared little about them.

T. Rex is a legendary British rock band. Marc Bolan wrote songs about pretty little girls with smudges on their faces, tarnished angels.

Dang! Did not know Elton John played the piano for T Rex.

[Syzygies]

I am sorry my literary allusion in reference to this girl did not ring a bell. The interesting point is that we both came to the same opinion about the girl: ie that she is damn sexy and that we both wanted to shag her.

Thanks, I have heard the song "Get it on" naturally, and have heard of the band "T Rex". Not quite my style of rock. Never seen the video before that I can remember. So did not know of Marc Bolan. I have heard of "Dieter Bohlen" of German Duo: Modern Talking.

Most lyrics were junky in those days, phrases repeated many times, so I cared little about them. The first time I was making money and able to buy albums, I got Fleetwood Mac "Rumours" and Electric Light Orchestra "A New World Record". A bit different style, with very big hits at the time.

E. g. The Chain (Fleetwood mac): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDG2m5hN1vo.

I was also into New Age like Vangelis, with no lyrics. "Opera Sauvage" (and other albums). The Alan Parsons Project "I Robot" and of course Mike Oldfield Tubular Bells (again no lyrics needed). Here is a link in case some have never experienced something so strange for its time that led to success of Virgin records: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXvtDm820zI. That would have been one of my earliest albums. I nearly forgot got some Pink Floyd mid to late 70s.

Not exactly mainstream tastes, largely more musically sophisticated stuff after some classical training.

You can imagine that girls sending me Thai poetry turns me on even less. The meaning is often a bit hidden, and they have a different idea of metre and rhyming.

The various references to this girl make me very curious to experience, or at least see a pic.

Reminds me of the Neil Labute movie called In the Company of Men, two colleagues date a mute girl in a rather brutal competition. One says something like, 'I love fucking mutes, they're so grateful'.
