It stated off it was supposed to be the first line but it evolved to any line. The original purpose was to put the onus on the poster not the audience. In other words try to come up with a song that no one could miss it. sorta like a cross between nostalgia and name that tune.
It can't be the song I'M THINKING OF - because it's the title of a song that came out when I was 18. So it must be that ANCIENT Steppenwolf song,.... Staring at the boob tube, turning on the BIG knob (what? No remote? OMG!!!!!)

I am impressed! I don't think I would use the word "ancient", however. Perhaps "classic" or "aged", but certainly not "ancient".
Ageless, Classic,.... Uhm okay, works for me. And later on you guys can tell me how you helped Noah figure out which cockroach was male and which one was female <grin>
This one is from my one of my favorite "ageless/classic" bands. It's not the first line, but one that stands out enough to recognise the song by. Curtis Amy (1929-2002) has a great sax solo on this song, although he was never a part of this band.
sounds like a twist on Luke 8:18 - Therefore consider carefully how you listen. Whoever has will be given more; whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken from him."

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

I knew it couldn't be mine because the title cannot appear in the quoted line.
I just posted it because I always thought it was a very cool tune.

I might be ancient but the tune is ageless.

It's an old Billie Holiday tune that's been covered by scads of other artists.
Here's my favorite version of it, as done by BS&T.

Always happy to take a freebie (as long as it's not paid for by someone else's taxes)!

I googled my guess and was wrong - I have no idea what song you're thinking of.
