this might be a little hard but it's a well known song As you brush your shoes Stand before the mirror

is it "Father and Son" Cat Stevens?

damn! i think it was a song by Elton John I can't think of it now but if this helps someone go for it

even if it's more noticable on the TV as the backing of an insurance commercial here's the song

for the jazz lovers

You forgot the steer.

I too gave up and I would have to agree with waysider that it was too big a hit for me to easilyoverlook. Good one

For waysider

Ok back to the music

Need I say more

and another from the "way back machine" Too bad Sandy Denny is no longer around Probably Victor Wooten

Another favorite from "the way back machine"

Yeah Dooj you got me on that one too.

hmmm You mean Mary Fahl that I posted the other night? she was with October Project and sang on the soundtrack " Of God's and generals" The vice President was Charles Gates Dawes, who became VP under Calvin Coolidge in 1925. He wrote it before he became Vice president.

the only #1 song written by a Vice-President of the USA

Thank you dwbh Vehavela wa salways one of my favorite songs. A song written by a cousin of Kenny Loggins

I was not trying to replace name that tune thread, rather challenge the posters to come up with a song that was so memorable that it would be recognizable from the first line. At the same time I didn't want it to be something like Mama's and Papas "Monday Monday" where the name of the song was in the first line. It's more a challenge to the posters then the guessers/answerers in they would have to pick a song that was easily ascetained from just the first line instead of having to post an entire verse or so. At least that was my intent. If I failed then my apologies.

that has always been one of my favorites. You're up.

Gonna take a freight train down at the station

Nah I labor in a print shop on my feet 8 hrs too many a day. I dabble in some programming and 3-d art though

mot sure if this is the title but "fire" by the Pointer Sisters?

i will be taking down the Batman and Grandmother song soon due to space requirements. If you want to save it please do so now.

You did fine George I was just thinking of songs that were so memorable that they would be easy from the first line only but not too easy that the first line conatins the title.

well I could not care less about the video but the music soothes my soul
