Name that Tune

[GeorgeStGeorge]

I would have gotten "Mellow Yellow." This one, I have no idea.

[Suda]

Sounds like "Real Wild Child" by Iggy Pop. My teenaged daughter is getting into the "old" music now and think I've heard it recently from her. Never was into Iggy Pop or many of the older artists she enjoys.

quote:

Wasn't "Go Now" Written by "Ozzie Osbourne"

I did some snooping on this.

It seems it was written by a guy named Larry Banks and recorded/ released by his wife, Bessie Banks in 1964.

I never heard of either of them until now.

The Oz man did it on an album of covers that included such unlikely picks as "Mississippi Queen".

We return you now to the regularly scheduled programming.

your up Suda good call

[Suda]

Feel funky

Feel good

Gonna tell ya

I'm in the neighbourhood

Gonna fly like a bird on the wing

Hold on to your hat honey,

Sing, sing, sing, sing

Heat up, cool down (cool down)

I got words in my head so I say them

Don't let life get me down (Don't let it get ya down)

Catch a hold of my blues and just play them.

(First line kinda gives the time period)

I've Got The Music In Me

Don't remember the artist. :(

[Suda]

You're up, Waysider. KiKi Dee was the artist I remember recording it. I posted it on the Music Lovers' Thread if you want to take a listen.

[waysider]

A crowd of young boys are foolin' 'round in the corner

Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and platform soles

They don't give a damn about no trumpet playin' band

That ain't what they call rock & roll.

[wasway]

Thats because they are the "Sultans of Swing" Dire Straits

There's trouble on the streets tonight, I can feel it in my bones

I had a premonition, that he should not go alone

I knew the gun was loaded, but I didn't think he'd kill

Everything exploded and the blood began to spill

So baby, here's your ticket, put the suitcase in your hand

Here's a little money now, do it just the way we planned

You be cool for twenty hours and I'll pay you twenty grand

I'm sorry it went down like this,

And someone had to lose,

It's the nature of the business,

Its.......................

Yes it is, making this your move, natch.

(Me, I'm just frustrated- I should have named "Sultans of Swing", and just didn't check in

time to catch "Smugglers Blues.")

[Raf]

"All that pressure got you down

Has your head spinning all around

Feel the rhythm, check the ride

Come on along and have a real good time"

[Suda]

My guess is "Le Freak" by Chic

Suda (think she remembers it from a collection of dance songs by various artists)

[Raf]

You are correct.

[Suda]

Tell me no secrets,

Tell me some lies

Give me no reasons,

Give me alibis.

Tell me you love me

And don't let me cry

Say anything but don't say goodbye.

[Tom Strange]

sounds like a later fleetwood mac... I only know of the early ones... (if that's what it is)

it might be time for more lyrics or a new song suda... I think you've got the panel stumped...

[waysider]

Stumped?

Why, the answer is crystal clear!

[Suda]

Believe waysider knows it. Put them out of suspense, please, and post your guess.

Suda (of blue eyes)

[waysider]

OK

I feel like I'm unworthy because I just happened to stumble on a TV show with her a couple of weeks ago.

I wasn't looking for it, honest.

I gotta tell ya, there comes a time when a woman has to STOP wearing her hair long or risk looking silly.

Crystal Gayle------------Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue.

Well, I want to make love to you tonite

I can't wait til the morning has come

And I know that the time is just right

And straight into my arms you will run

[waysider]

And when you come, my heart will be waiting

To make sure you're never alone

There and then all my dreams will come true, dear

There and then I will make you my own

[Tom Strange]

well... it's a marvelous night here except for the thunderstorms... can't even mow the lawn...

[GeorgeStGeorge]

It's amazing how well the words fit the melody once someone gives you a hint.

"Moondance" by Van Morrison.

Rock on, Big G.

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Reality came around,

And without so much as a mere touch,

Cut me into little pieces.

Leaving me to doubt, all about God and His mercy

George

[GeorgeStGeorge]

At sixty-five years old,

My mother, God rest her soul,

Couldn’t understand why the only man,

She had ever loved had been taken.

Reality came around,

And without so much as a mere touch,

Cut me into little pieces.

Leaving me to doubt, all about God and His mercy
