What's the matter with the car I'm driving
Can't you tell that it's out of style?
Should I get a set of white wall tires
Are you gonna cruise the miracle mile?

"It's Still Rock and Roll to Me" by Billy Joel

 

Beauty I'd always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say any more

'Cause I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you

By the Sullen Azures, no doubt.      It's clear that you know the answer, but you might want to translate, in case anyone isn't getting it.

No I think he got it.  Evenings is nights and you're hint "Azures" is white and Ecru Corduro is clearly Satin.

Actually, ecru is off-white.  Azure is blue.  The "Sullen Azures" would be the Moody Blues.

Whatever.  WW is up.

Oh that's right.  Got my colours confused.  I was thinking about my other cat Bianca which is white in Italian.  Azzuro is my blue kitty.  Perhaps we did need an interpreter after all.

How soft your fields so green. Can whisper tales of gore.
Of how we calmed the tides of war. We are your overlords."

I see we have no fans of viking kittens around here.....

I recognize the last two lines, but I couldn't tell you the title or artist.

Are you at least fans of the viking kittens?

I've always been a fan of the The Viking's cheerleaders because I think they're the best and bravest.  You got to be brave to wear short skirts in those temperatures..        I was going to say it sounds like it could be a Led Zeppelin song.

You were going to say it, or you're saying it?

Judges?   (Oh, right, no judges.)   That's close enough. It WAS Led Zeppelin, and it was "the Immigrant Song."

People say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing

Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin

When I say that I'm Ok they look at me kind of strange

Surely you're not happy now you no longer play the game

 

[GeorgeStGeorge]

I may not know it anyway, but perhaps a few more lines?

Brain finally kicked in an answer.  Is this "I'm Just Sitting Here Watching the Wheels Go Round and Round", and, if so, is this a Beatles song?

Answer is correct.  It's just Watching The Wheels by John Lennon.  So technically no, not a Beatles song, but yes still the same.
