Name that Tune

[GeorgeStGeorge]

"In the Summertime" by Mungo Jerry!

George

[Ca_dreaming]

You are the bomb, dude! Oops, I've been watching too much American Idol. You are correct.

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Each time I see you baby my heart cries

I'm gonna steal you away from all those guys

This song has been covered at least twice, so any of three performers will do.

George

[wasway]

That would be Steely Dan, I believe its "The Night Fly" (nitefly)

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Steely Dan did a cover of the song, but its title is not "Nitefly" (or anything similar).

George

[wasway]

You're Right of Course.... "Nightfly" was the name of the Donald Fagen Album on which "Ruby Baby" appeared...I was trying to be a smart a$$ and screwed it all up, So I will pass it back you GeoStGeo...

[GeorgeStGeorge]

It was "Ruby, Baby." I prefer the Dion version, but Steely Dan and Bjork (!) also covered it.

You're up, Wasway!

George

[wasway]

OK here is one from my youth,,

Don't you ever listen to the radio

When the big bad beat comes on

I know you gotta dig it

I know you can't stop it

Cause the bottom comes on so strong

Talkin 'bout...................,

Actually, the band played it at our Homecoming Dance in '68

[waysider]

HMMMM.

The band played at your homecoming in 1968,so I'm thinking it's likely to be one of these:

1) Mitch Rider and the Detroit Wheels

2) Ted Nugent

3) Bob Seger

4)Grand Funk Railroad

5) Terry Knight and the Pack

6) The James Gang (On a road trip)

[wasway]

Bob Seger- Heavy Music

[wasway]

And we have a Winner Go for it Ca Dreamin'

[Ca_dreaming]

Honey you know the springtime of life is the sweetest of all

There is never a real care or regret

And while springtime is ours throughout all youth hours

Let us smile each chance we get

[waysider]

Nice lyric, but I can't say that I recognize it.

[Ca_dreaming]

It's an oldie, but appropriate for the month.

[waysider]

OK. The month is March. We have:

1)March Madness

2)First day of Spring

3)Time change

4)St Patricks' Day

5)In like a lion, out like a lamb

And lest we forget-----Beware The Ides Of March!

Ok. I know I'm not even close but HEY!------I gave it a shot.

[Ca_dreaming]

Here is another versions intro:

There's a tear in your eye,

and I'm wondering why,

For it never should be there at all.

With such power in your smile,

sure a stone you'd beguile,

So there's never a teardrop should fall.

When your sweet lilting laughter's

like some fairy song,

And your eyes twinkle bright as can be,

You should laugh all the while

and all other times smile,

And now smile a smile for me.

"There's a Tear in My Beer"

No, wait. That can't be it(unless it's GREEN beer)

Could it be "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling"?

Sorry. Even though I'm sure it's been recorded a zillion times, I can't name any artists other than maybe Dennis Day or The Chieftains as possibilities. And I think there may have been a Country artist who did it back in the '50's but I don't recall his name.

If that answer is correct, it would appear to me that Wasway has it and is tossing out a clue with the eyeglasses.

[Ca_dreaming]

Wasway, how clever.

Many artist have done it, it was originally written in 1912.

So with that in mind, Bing Crosby.

So bring on the Charm and have a go,Wasway.

[wasway]

I heard this one on the radio yesterday... almost wrecked my car

How his naked ears were tortured

By the sirens sweetly singing

For the sparkling waves are calling you

To kiss their white lace legs

And you see your girl's brown body

Dancing through the turquoise

And her footprints make you follow

Where the sky loves the sea

And when your fingers find her

She drowns you in her body

Carving deep blue ripples

In the tissues of your mind

[waysider]

White Room

Jack, Ginger and some guy named Eric---------Cream.

I never knew what it was about and,frankly, didn't care. I crank it up everytime I hear it!

You're soldiers of God, you must understand

The fate of your country is in your young hands

May God give you strength

Do your job well

If it was all worth it

Only time it will tell.
