I'm going ahead Ahat. I think that was right.

Sir or Madam will you read my book

[WordWolf]

Depends.

Is it based on a novel by a man named Lear?

[Human without the bean]

Indeed it is WordWolf!

They play this one in spin classes, occasionally. :)

I can't remember if it's "Big-Bottom Girls" or "Fat-Bottom Girls."

George

[Human without the bean]

It's the latter George. Your up.

Oh come on. I had too. Edited December 12, 2012 by Human without the bean

Give me a ticket for an airplane...

FYI for those who don't have encoding the last song is by Queen.

For some reason I'm remembering something like the Letter but doesn't seem correct. Is it?

[GeorgeStGeorge]

"The Letter" (by the Box Tops) is correct.

Let's put a positive spin on this:

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day

[GeorgeStGeorge]

"My Girl"

In a weather-related vein,

I can turn a grey sky blue

George

[excathedra]

temptations "i can't get next to you"

now do i have to do one for you to guess

i'll stay with weather

lightning's striking again

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Glad to have you playing, Excie.

In this thread, you only need the title, not the performer (as you would with "Name that Tune").

You gessed correctly, so it is, in fact your chance to give the next clue.

In this game, one gives the first line of a very well-known tune (unless the first line contains the title).

I believe you gave the title (Lou Christie's "Lightning's Striking Again") instead of the first line "Listen to me, baby, you gotta understand

You're old enough to know the makings of a man."

Would you like to try again? This time, give the fisrt line and let us come up with the title.

:) George

[Human without the bean]

Do you want to go ahead with another clue, Excie?

[Human without the bean]

I'm going to move it along, however, Excie can ring in with a clue at any time if she likes,

So this is Christmas,

So this is Christmas, and what have you done?

Anytime, anywhere, anyplace you go, around December you can hear this song.

[GeorgeStGeorge]

I know it's a Beatles tune (or is it Wings?), but I'm not sure of the title.

George

[Human without the bean]

John sang it. Not when he was a beatle.

I added a little bit more to it.
