Tom Strange Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 I suppose this could all be considered "one line"...

WordWolf Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 I'm supposing waysider was right. Although we're not RESTRICTED to OPENING lines to songs, a few of those are rather recognizable: "Please allow me to introduce myself- I'm a man of wealth and taste."

GeorgeStGeorge Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 I do believe it was bulwinkl's intent that clues be the first line of a song, and that they should be pretty EASY to recognize: after perusing Name that tune topic I started thinking of songs that we remember from the first line. title not in first line. Otherwise, it IS just "Name That Tune." George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes WordWolf, One of my very favorite songs. Hopes the memories are good ones. Your answer, of course, is spot on. Your go!

I agree with you about "Who's Nect" and äqualung". I'm more familiar with The Doors by their catalog than which song is on what album, but I know enough to know you just mentioned "L.A. WOMA
