  1. Classic early 70's tune. Used in the first episode, Season three of "The Sopranos", played in the movie "American Hustle", and played in trailers and advertisements on TV for the movie "Suicide Squad". Does that help?
  2. "Times are hard You're afraid to pay the fee So you find yourself somebody Who can do the job for free When you need a bit of lovin' Cause your man is out of town That's the time you get me runnin' And you know I'll be around" "Light the candle Put the lock upon the door You have sent the maid home early Like a thousand times before Like the castle in its corner In a medieval game I foresee terrible trouble And I stay here just the same"

  4. I probably won't get close to this clue then as I have no experience at all with Broadway. I do know about movies though, especially if they were Oscar winners and that's why I thought "The King and I" had at least an outside chance, because it won the Best Picture award unlike 1776.
  5. This song was a song from Paul McCartney's second solo album "Ram" and the idea behind the song was first to put together a song "Monkberry Moon Delight" that the lyrics didn't necessarily mean anything but the idea was to make a song that had lyrics that rhymed. Childish imaginings. Monk was what his kids used to call milk and he played around with that. If you listen to the lyrics they don't really make any sense. "Catch up! Cats and kittens, don't get left behind". or, "I know my banana is older than the rest, and my hair is a tangled beretta". The sound of the song is a jazzy blues thing. Paul's voice is raspy. Great beat too. Anyway, I've got a new one. "Times are hard You're afraid to pay the fee So you find yourself somebody Who can do the job for free When you need a bit of lovin' Cause your man is out of town That's the time you get me runnin' And you know I'll be around"
  6. I am going in another direction. The thing about ~the Bee Gees~ song is something that interested me, but it doesn't make for a good trivia question. The song was "To Love Somebody". Anyway. Here's something. Science-fiction writer Ray Bradbury changed the title of "Fahrenheit 451" twice before it became what it is known as today. The title was called "The Fireman" but what was it called before that?
  7. Oh, okay. The Bee Gees, Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb were some of the greatest songwriters in music history. However, some of their songs were written for other people, Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton "Islands in the Stream", Dionne Warwick "Heart breaker", Frankie Valli "Grease". In early 1967, their manager Roger Stigwood asking Barry to write a song for him but after recording it in New York they ended up playing it for Otis Redding. Otis said he really liked it and that he would like to record it. Tragically though, Otis Redding died later that year and was never able to record it. What was the song? This could be difficult to come up with so, I'll leave this note, Barry Gibb was asked in an interview in 2017 by Piers Morgan "of all the songs you've ever written which song would he pick", and Barry said he would choose "[insert title] because, it has a clear, emotional message".
  8. As I sat in the attic, a piano up my nose, And the wind played a dreadful cantata. (cantata, cantata) Sore was I from a crack of an enemy's hose, And the horrible sound of tomato. (tomato, tomato) Well, I know my banana is older than the rest And my hair is a tangled beretta. (beretta, beretta) But I leave my pajamas to Billy Budapest, And I don't get the gist of your letter. (your letter, your letter) Catch up!, (catch up!) Cats and kittens (cats and kittens) Don't get left behind. (get left behind) Catch up, (catch up) Cats and kittens (cats and kittens) Don't get left behind. (get left behind, get left behind, get left behind)
  9. The Gambler. Only I couldn't think of anyone else in it.
  10. Next. Well, I know my banana is older than the rest And my hair is a tangled beretta. (beretta, beretta) But I leave my pajamas to Billy Budapest, And I don't get the gist of your letter. (your letter, your letter) Catch up!, (catch up!) Cats and kittens (cats and kittens) Don't get left behind. (get left behind) Catch up, (catch up) Cats and kittens (cats and kittens) Don't get left behind. (get left behind, get left behind, get left behind)
  11. I don't watch much TV either. How boring, or maybe I'm the boring one. I don't know.
  12. The Power of Love "Two thousand miles I've roamed just to make this dock my home, whoo"
  13. I'm not so sure about this one being easy Raf. Had it been, "If it bleeds, we can kill it" then it would be. That's just me. We all have a variety of different movies or different genres of movies from which a particular movie quote strikes a fancy. But this one doesn't do that for me. Unless of course then, if this is from a Marvel Universe movie I couldn't begin because I've never watched them before.
  14. Kinda, sorta, sounds familiar to me, a tad bit. But still, pretty vague.
  15. "My biological clock is *ticking like this* and the way this case is going, I ain't never getting married".
