Name that Tune

[anotherDan]

'cause we, we've got the right foundation, and with love and determination...

[Suda]

You're all I Need to Get By

Diana Ross

[anotherDan]

Did Diana do that? I think that Marvin Gaye / Tammy Terrel got the most airtime with it. I thought that that would be an easy one. Good job, girl!It's all your's Suda!(Don't know what I'm doing wrong, but the clickable link works) Hey, it works! Thanks bulwinkle!

Don't wanta hear another word about

Candelight and long stem roses

And how you're fallin' head over heels

Suda

[waysider]

I have no idea what the tune is but I wanted to jump in and say that I think Marvin and Tammy were perhaps the best matched duo to ever step before a microphone. Their history together was short but oh, what an impact they made!

[anotherDan]

waysider, I agree (and I also have no inkling on Suda's clue). Linda Ronstadt and Aaron Neville did some nice stuff, too, but Marvin and Tammy were something else.

[waysider]

Just for fun

[Suda]

First verse of lyrics I posted above:

Well he used to be mine

Not so very long ago

I was crazy to ever let him get away

But girl you should know better

Then to go braggin' in my face

So forgive me for what I'm 'bout to say

[anotherDan]

<---- clueless

[Suda]

Chorus:

Big deal

So what? Who cares?

Ya just got lucky that's all it was

Shut up

Don't wanta hear another word about

Candelight and long stem roses

And how you're fallin' head over heels

In love, so what?

Big deal

Clue, name of the song appears twice in the chorus.

Clue, I like the version by Leann Rimes.

Suda (gets airplay here in TN, guess cause of Nashville)

[anotherDan]

Big deal? LOL

by Leann Rimes

If it gets airtime in DE.... maybe I'm just not listening. I'm an oldiesfan just because I can't keep up and also keep up with the lawnmowing. It's gonna be a scorcher today, and my grass is approaching knee high. Maybe I can wear earphones

You're up, anotherDan!

Don't get overheated mowing the lawn!

Suda

[anotherDan]

People are talkin'

talkin' 'bout people

I hear them whisper

you won't believe it

They say we're lovers....

[Suda]

Sounds like Bonnie Raitt in "Something To Talk About" or "Let's Give Them Something to Talk About". Not sure of the exact title. Gets lots of play here in TN'ville.

[anotherDan]

your turn, suda!

[Suda]

You've been sitting much too long

There's a permanent crease in your right and wrong

[waysider]

I can fly like a bird in the sky.

I can buy anything that money can buy.

I can turn a river into a raging fire.

I could live forever if I so desired.

[Suda]

Correct waysider.

Your lyrics sound familiar. Will think about them, and post if I think of the name.

Suda

[anotherDan]

beats me!

[waysider]

beats me!

AnotherDan

Can I at least tempt you to take a guess?

[anotherDan]

Leonard Skynard?

I don't think I know the song!

[waysider]

I can make the grayest sky blue.

I can make it rain whenever I want it to.

I can build a castle from a single grain of sand.

I can make a ship sail on dry land.

[anotherDan]

you know... that's sounding vaguely familiar... I must warn you, I missed most of the eighties, nineties, and oughts!

Come to think of it, I missed most of the sixties, too, but for another reason. :blink:
