hazence Posted April 1, 2009 #1 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Gloria Gaynor sends a word of cheer... First I was afraid I was petrified… Kept thinking I could never cruise Denied my Diamond Pride But I spent so many nights thinking how Royal did me wrong I grew strong I learned how to carry on and so I’m back!!!! from other Ships I’ve learned to part with cash When I need booze to cross my lips You can keep your crowded lounge You can keep that worthless key I can actually sit down Diamond-free don’t bother me.. Go on now go..I no longer care… I can relax at the pool even with a Suite Guest in my chair No more letters to Goldstein; no more empty threats to sue.. I can live without room service, steak fees won’t ruin my cruise… Oh yes..I I will survive as long as I can cruise My mental health will thrive Breathing in that ocean air Sunsets on the sea I survived my great ordeal Life has meaning yet for me… and I'll survive I will survive I WILL SURVIVE!

karena1 Posted April 1, 2009 #4 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Well said. Very creative. totally agree. Not the end of the world. Like I said, we enjoy the perks with Diamond, but we cruised before we had them and will continue to cruise Royal if we don't have them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pomperaugrr Posted April 1, 2009 #7 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Pink Floyd has all the Diamond and D+ members covered as well: "Shine On You Crazy Diamond." Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun. Shine on you crazy diamond. Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky. Shine on you crazy diamond. You were caught in the crossfire of RCI's cutbacks, born of the stock value's slide. Come on you outcast from the Concierge Lounge, come on you cruisers, you're loyal, you're entitled, so shine! You reached for the perks too soon, you cried for the moon. Shine on you crazy diamond. Heckled by posters on CC, you're really what they wanna' be. Shine on you crazy diamond. Well you wore out your welcome to the Concierge Lounge, except on the new big ships. Come on you D+, you builder of credits, come on you passengers, you regulars, you Diamonds, and shine! :p See, even Classic Rock Bands feel the pain! Eric (ps, I'm only one cruise credit away from diamond myself.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruinboy Posted April 1, 2009 #13 Share Posted April 1, 2009 The absolutely best post I have seen in a couple of weeks. Way to go!!! Sing it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moondawgie Posted April 1, 2009 #14 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Fabuloso!!!!! I love a great attitude. I am one away from being Diamond and I could care less about the lounge, the chocolates, the diamond gift and whatever else. There was a time we didn't get these things anyway (ancient times), so as you so very well sang ... I Will Survive. We'll concentrate on what we have and not what we don't have. Happiness is not having more, it's needing less! What a philospher I am!:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

julia Posted April 1, 2009 #17 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Ah haaa! Just try getting THIS song out of your head! :) :) To the tune of "It's a Small, Small World" (as sung at Disneyland!) There is just one lounge, and it’s really small…. So they kicked out the di-monds, and said “sorry y’all”…. there’s not much we can do, except bit** and boo hoooooo It’s a sad, saaaad world…….

PudgiPoo Posted April 1, 2009 #19 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I will vote for this as best post of the month. I love it. I just made diamond on my last cruise. I have one coming up on the Rhapsody (no CL anyway). I will say I had thought about booking on the Voyager to check out the CL. I won't be doing that. I guess I will save my cruise dollars for another trip on a small ship. I do love the old gals. May give the Radiance a try. You won't find me in the CL. I only have a couple of drinks on a cruise so no big thing. I just would have like to see it once, but I too will survive. Okay I will let them dangle that carrot for a few more cruises.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
