| Troubadour Appreciation #1: Because he has 'Mystique' Because he needs a thread.  Welcome to the Stars Hollow Town Troubadour Appreciation Thread    Banner made by: Lena (Lenschn)  Thread title by: SoSaysI81Definition of a Troubadour: trou·ba·dour (n.) (1.) One of a class of 12th-century and 13th-century lyric poets in Southern France, northern Italy, and northern Spain, who composed songs in langue d'oc often about courtly love. (2.) A strolling minstrel. Connecticut State Troubadour Stars Hollow Troubadour Bio:
Quotes about Troubadour: "In the interest of not talking about this subject for another second, I hereby designate 'Mystique Guy' over here the official town troubadour. And no other troubadour may usurp his territory, meaning this other guy." ~ Taylor, Love, Daisies and Troubadours "Because sometimes you have something you need to say but you can't because the words won't come out or you get scared or you feel stupid, so if you could write a song and sing it then you could say what you need to say and it would be beautiful and people would listen and you wouldn't make a complete idiot out of yourself, but all of us can't be songwriters so some of us will never be able to say what we're thinking or what we want other people to know that we're thinking so we'll never get the chance to make things right again ever. (Brief pause. She puts her hand on Troubadour 1's shoulder.) So give this guy a license." ~ Rory, Love, Daisies and Troubadours TAYLOR: Wait a second, wait a second! You there, when Lady Godiva here wanted to be town troubadour over you, I stood by your side. Why aren’t you backing me now? TROUBADOUR: ‘Cause you left me twistin’ for a long time before you did, Taylor, and it didn’t feel good. I even wrote a song about the experience. LORELAI: Oh, I heard it. It’s called "Taylor Left Me Twistin’." RORY: Oh yeah, it’s really good. TROUBADOUR: You think? Because I’m having a little trouble with the chorus. Taylor left me twistin’, he set my eyes a mistin’. I’m just not sure if it has that thing, though, you know? LORELAI: Oh, no, I love that part. I actually thought that maybe at the end you could do more about the sweater. We’ll talk. ~Troubadour and Lorelai, Dead Uncles and Vegetables Grant the Troubadour Discography Songs he has sung on the show Truly Truly - 1.05 - "Cinnamon's Wake" Sunday Best - 1.14 - "That Damn Donna Reed" Beautiful Dreamers - 1.14 - "That Damn Donna Reed" Heavenly - 1.16 - "Star Crossed Lovers & Other Strangers" Mockingbirds - 1.16 - "Star Crossed Lovers & Other Strangers" & 3.21 - "Here Comes The Son" It's the Life - 1.18 - "The Third Lorelai" Honey Don't Think - 1.21 - "Love, Daises, and Troubadours" Sadness Soot - 1.21 - "Love, Daises, and Troubadours" Everybody Needs a Little Sanctuary - 1.21 - "Love, Daises, and Troubadours" Spring Released - 2.02 - "Hammers & Veils" Jubilee - 2.06 - "Presenting Lorelai Gilmore" Nothin' is For Sure - 2.08 - "The Ins & Outs of Inns" Be True To Your School - 2.11 - "Secrets & Loans" Wake Me Up (Before You Go Go) - 2.17 - "Dead Uncles & Vegetables" Smile - 3.03 - "Application Anxiety" Peace Train - 3.22 - "Those are Strings, Pinocchio" Mona Lisa - 4.13 - "Nag Hammadi Is Where They Found The Gnostic Gospels" Lily A Passion - 4.22 - "Raincoats & Recipes" & 5.03 - "Written in the Stars" Mama Tried - 5.22 - "A House is Not A Home" Pre-owned Heart - 6.01 - "New & Improved Lorelai" 40 Years - 6.20 - "Super Cool Party People" Me And Julio Down By The School Yard - 6.21 - "Driving Miss Gilmore" Grant-Lee Phillips Discography Grant-Lee Phillips: Virginia Creeper Mobilize Ladies Love Oracle Grant-Lee Buffalo: Storm Hymnal Jubilee Copperopolis Mighty Joe Moon Fuzzy credit: GrantLeePhillips & CrazyInternetPeople *Lists compiled by SoSaysI81 Caps of Troubadour: Credit: opposites-are-polar.net One of the first times we meet Troubadour:   Rory sticks up for Troubadour:  Troubadour as Judas:    Reasons Why We Love Troubadour: 1.

| I love the troubador everytime he's on I get really happy and my friend looks at me like I'm crazy. But she loves him too so has no room to look at me funny. Hope he's in the finale. __________________ **Carolyn** avi by moviemaniac80Luke: But tonight I will give you my extremely positive views on other aspects of your being. Owen:We can do this.

| I love the Troubadour too!! he's a great character, not overshadowing the rest of the story, just giving a nice tone to the town charm and the SLs. He's good for our hears and our eyes, not that I find him that attractive! but the simple fact that he has a guitar, a harmonica that he's dressed quite often the same is reassuring! I love that he is ignored, without being ignored. What I mean is that he often plays in the background while the girls are walking by, they don't stop to talk to him (well sometimes they do,...) but he's not portrayed as a lonely and homeless man (well, actually who knows where the mystery guy lives??) who does that for money and quite annoys you in the subway for example! Since I started to watch GG, I have a different look on people who play the music in the street, I don't ignore them at once! That's a great character and I love all the mystery that surrounds him. Thanks for this thread! By the way I loved when he sang "Wake me up before you go-go"! Auré __________________ "A painter paints pictures on canvas. But musicians paint their pictures on silence."
