Bluzeman------Crowded House is the name of the group that did the song dundat posted.
.
My post is in a delayed order. On "guitar talk" I asked dmiller how he thought this song would sound if done bluegrass style and he informed me that it had already been done. So, the title is still not named. I did not answer because I instantly recognized it from our discussion on "GT".
Well, the person I asked is also a sometimes GSC poster and they knew the song instantly so I feel like it's not really my turn but what the heck.(on behalf of dundat)
Then, the busy years went rushing by us.
We lost our starry notions on the way.
If, by chance, I'd see you at the tavern,
We'd smile at one another and we'd say-----------------
Hint: It knocked "Hey Jude" off the number one spot on the charts in a bit of twisted irony.
You are correct,my friend. It was, indeed, Those Were The Days,My Friend.----Mary Hopkins
The irony was that it was recorded in what was then a very new Apple Records studio and was produced By Sir Paul,himself. It then went on to dethrone the reigning kings of their day.(in a temporal sense,of course)
Me thinkest thou art next.
TEEHEE----I still like that part about losing our starry notions on/in The Way.

It was played on album oriented stations so that counts. I remember it I just can't think of the song right now

Don't know the title but then I never did like the stones to much. unless it was covered by Flying Burrito brothers also which would make it dead flowers but I think that's another song.

Once beneath the stars, the universe was ours. Love was all we knew, and all I knew was you. I wonder where you are, I wonder if you think about me Once upon a time, IN YOUR WILDEST DREAMS. It mig

Well, if it's a toss-up, I'll post:
"My anaconda don't want none unless you got buns, hon"
(That's the song, not my own personal sentiments, mind...)

Are you sure it was funk 49?
in my mind (after those words) I keep hearing "seems to me you don't wanna talk about... seems to me you just turn your pretty head and walk away"

"Baby Got Back" by Sir Mix-a-Lot? (Guessing WW's clue.)

That was it.
(Broke my usual rule about 1985-1986 because I figured it was famous enough.)
Go!

She's waitin' by the window
When he pulls into the drive
She rushes out to hold him
Thankful he's alive
Every light is burnin'
In a house across town
She's pacin' by the telephone
In her faded flannel gown

That's all relative to how you define "Country".

If, as I suspect, you know the tune, Waysider, give the answer!

OK------The tune is "The Thunder Rolls" by Garth Brooks.
BUUT! The reason I knew is because I ran the lyrics past someone at work and they said"WHAT! You didn't know that one ?!!"
Therefore, I must disqualify myself from posting a new one.

Asking someone is okay. Googling is bad.
Go ahead, Waysider!

Let's go back to the 70's, please!
We're no threat, people
We're not dirty, we're not mean
We love everybody but we do as we please
When the weather's fine
We go fishin' or go swimmin' in the sea
We're always happy
Life's for livin' yeah, that's our philosophy
