  1. "Got a good reason For taking the easy way out Got a good reason For taking the easy way out now"
  2. If it was 20 years ago today, I might have been able to remember that. Hey I think I just quoted "Sergeant Pepper"!
  3. Wasn't that a pop drink George, or still is? You misspelled it. Glad to see you're keeping waysider in the loop.
  4. Hi waysider. So I want to remind you about this thread 'Name That Tune' is played and how it's differs from the 'Songs remembered from one line'. Songs thread is just easy to remember. That's it, and it doesn't require the name of the songwriter or band. Just the song, and usually it's just one or two lines. The tune thread differs in that it requires that we give more than one line, perhaps a full verse and, depending on its difficulty maybe several verses. So, generally the song here, isn't one that is recognized from one or two lines, (although it can be), so it becomes a more challenging thread. And, here, we are required to name a group or artist who either actually recorded it, or was covered by another artist and it had received enough radio play to make it memorable. Say for example, ~The Bangles~ and their cover of ~Simon and Garfunkel's "Hazy Shade of Winter". For me, in this case, there isn't enough lyrics to draw information.
  5. I went as far to *fact check* (after thinking I might watch it) and yes, the quoted line, "shaken, not stirred" was used in "Casino Royale", by the waiter.
  6. Run Around Sue "Why do we never get an answer when we're knockin' at the door"
  7. Correct. Apparently the first Bond film to use the line was "Dr. No" when it was used twice but not spoken by Bond (Sean Connery). The first use of "Shaken not stirred" by James Bond was in "Goldfinger". ["Shaken, not stirred" is how Ian Flemings fictional British secret agent James Bond prefers his martini cocktail. Wikipedia.] And, for any James Bond trivia buffs here, it was mis-quoted and re-missed in "You Only Live Twice" when the bartender offers the drink to Bond (Sean Connery) "Stirred, not shaken" and Bond replies "perfect". WordWolf you're up.
  8. Like I said, probably any of them. I'm certain Austin Powers used a similar line in all the movies, maybe not exact but something like the line you quoted George. So thank you, I will go ahead. Let's see then, something that isn't from Shawshank Redemption. Huh, "Shaken not stirred"
  9. I've never understood more than six words to any of his songs, except Pink Cadillac.
  10. Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (but, probably any of them).
  11. Well, apparently George beat me to the draw. Therefore...... Linda Fiorentino The Last Seduction Bill Pullman
  12. "Well I'm a-running down the road trying to loosen my load I've got seven women on my mind"
  13. Definitely not "Boulevard" by Jackson Browne.
  14. If not "Wild Wild West", I'm guessing then, "Have Gun Will Travel" just to chime in, even though I don't know whether or not Richard Booth was even a veteran, much less a decorated war hero.
  15. Eastern Boys and Western Girls? Pet Shop Boys
