Name that Tune

[Ca_dreaming]

You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive

Well you said that we made such a pretty pair

And that you would never leave

[Suda]

Sounds like "You're So Vain" by Carly Simon.

Suda

[Ca_dreaming]

I knew you would get it. I think we like alot of the same type of music.

Play us another one.

[Suda]

and nothing whoa nothing is going right.

Close your eyes and think of me

[Ca_dreaming]

You've got a friend. Carole King and or James Taylor

[Suda]

Yes, m'am, Ca dreaming! You're up again!

Suda

[Ca_dreaming]

Some walk by night, Some fly by day,

[Ca_dreaming]

Hmmmmmmmmm! need more help!

Nothing could change you,

Set and sure of the way.

[wasway]

Wait... I need to ask my friends David and Maddie for some help here

(I just know that GSG is gonna blame me for this)

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Blame you for what?

Wasway's hint obviously refers to the TV show "Moonlighting," but I don't know if that's the name of this song (in which case, Ihave no idea who the performer is) or if the song is from the show (in which case, I know neither title nor performer).

George

[Suda]

Ca dreaming,

You got us all stumped. Way to go! I never can come up with things that are challenging. But one day I will.

Suda

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Actually, I doubt wasway or Tom is stumped...

George

[Tom Strange]

see... there you go! sherrif GSG! ...I don't know the song but I bet you do! (I was speaking earlier of this deviation to TV show theme songs)

[Tom Strange]

I shall guess (due to the clue) the "moonlighting theme"... sung by Al Jerreau (sp?)...

Al Jarreau---Now that you mention it, I remember this one.

Didn't he have an album with the same title?

And who can forget the receptionist ?( I think her real name was Alice Beasley.)

Attractive in her own quirky, cerebral kind of way.

[Ca_dreaming]

You are correct Tom! Sorry for the delay, been painting!

[Tom Strange]

Here's an oldie but a goody (if you get it, go ahead and post another, I'm off to the airport)

Here I stand with head in hand,

Turn my face to the wall.

If she's gone I can't go on,

Feeling two foot small.

Hey! You've Got To Hide Your Love Away-------Lads from Liverpool

You tell lies thinking I can't see.

You can't cry 'cause you're laughing at me.

How can you laugh when you know-------?

Clue#3

[Tom Strange]

yeah... sure no one knows it... I'm Down ... the Fab Four

have you seen the trailers for Across the Universe ???

looks like they made a whole movie out of Bee-At-Lees songs...

[waysider]

You got it T.S.

Geeze!--- I thought that one would go as soon as I hit the submit key.

Ya just nevah know.

I'm gonna have to check out that link you mentioned.

Funny thing is, I was never much of a Beatles fan back in the day but as I listen to them now, something seems to click for me. (maybe it's the bongos) :-)

Rock On!

well... I was busy... the first time I remember hearing this song was by a guy named B.W. Stevenson (I think he wrote it but I'm not sure)... it was re-done in the last few years by a guy the ladies all seem to love...

I know that song as "Please Come to Boston" by Dave Loggins done in 1974. If it was redone in the last few years, I don't know who did it.

I just found this thread, this is pretty cool!

The roller-coaster ride we took is nearly at an end

I bought my ticket with my tears, that's all I'm gonna spend...
