It isn't? Ok. The first line of "Snowbird" has a "beneath" in it too. "Beneath this snowy mantle cold and clean". I got my lines mixed up. I don't know this one then.
The trouble with this now is that I recognize the song from the Monkees' but I have Ann Murray's Snowbird stuck in my head and I can't distinguish it from the two songs.

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

"Snowbird" Ann Murray sings like a voice from an angel don't she?
I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand

Then I have failed to produce a song remembered from one line. It is, however, one of the Monkees' greatest hits, so I thought it would be obvious.

That´s a Stones song. I think the title is "You Get What You Need."

I'm sure I've heard it before, but nothing is coming to mind despite that.

Must be recognizable to a few folks but it's still not on my radar.

I suppose if you heard each of the Temptations singing a line, it would help. The one thing they COULDN'T do:
"Can't Get Next to You."
How about this one:
"Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin' for a train
When I's feelin' near as faded as my jeans"

If you heating, careful, don't let your head explode.
