songs remembered from just one line

I've never seen Cats.  I could probably get some Broadway tunes from the 40s, but not much else.

You're wrong George!

That's George's clue redrock and blues but he played out of turn.  WordWolf correctly got the name of the last song and so now we wait for a new clue from him.

You know you've probably heard the song a few hundred times when it immediately comes to your head.

I knew the group too for that matter.   I Love the Flower Girl.  Good song George.
