I see you every morning outside the restaurant, the music plays so nonchalant

Second verse not the same as the first, I've used the clue before, I believe, but nobody got it.  But I think waysider knows it.

How gentle is the rain that falls softly on the meadow?

Birds, high up in the trees, serenade the clouds with their melodies.

Up Up in the Air?

[waysider]

Does THIS help?

[Human without the bean]

Okay, yes thanks waysider.  It's a female voice, not Lulu, but someone like her.  I'm still thinking?

[waysider]

The popular version was performed in 4/4, rather than 3/4, as it was originally written.

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Yes it does.

Lovers' Concerto.  I remember the scene in "Mr. Holland's Opus" where Holland plays the Bach to show his kids the origin of the pop tune.

Still that may be, but that's not the name of the song is it?  I could be wrong.

I don't know George, you've never used that one before.  Let me think about it.  I'm willing to bet that you dropped it in here in the last two months.  Have you got anything else?

Woke up with it in my head this morning.  The melody is all.  I couldn't quite make out the lyrics though.  Great song.

Actually, the last record of this I can find was by WW, last November.  And I got it right.  

So feel free to answer and post another.

That one is probably not in everyone's bag.  Let's do another one.  That was "Seven Nation Army" by the way.

"One is the loneliest" whoops, that won't work.

"There she was just a walkin' down the street"

Doo Wah Ditty

In that vein, 

"I saw her on a Monday and my heart stood still."

George

[WordWolf]

Flashbacks of "Stripes".   "DA DO RUN RUN RUN, DA DO RUN RUN!"

[WordWolf]

"In and around the lake. Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there."

 

Is that a legit line in a song?  Yess, it is.

[Human without the bean]

Yes, of course.  Roundabout

"I, I would be king.  And you, you would be queen"

Heroes

I pulled in to Nazareth. I was feelin' 'bout a half past dead.
