[Ca_dreaming]

Way to go Tom, and yes it is very interesting waysider!

[Tom Strange]

This one from only 25 years ago...

Is it the man come to take me away?

Why do they follow me?

It's not the future that I can see,

It's just my fantasy.

[Tom Strange]

see... God told me to post that one for you!

[Ca_dreaming]

He seeks and he hides,

He lives and he dies,

He saw it before we were dreaming.

He will hustle you down,

Tin can or a crown,

But he will never play with your feelings.

[Tom Strange]

It sounds so familiar...

[Tom Strange]

I think we need some help CalDreamer!

[Ca_dreaming]

Taking us back to 1973.

Don't you know the feeling

Don't you know the truth

Don't you know you're dreaming

Don't you know it's you

Don't you know it's you.

[Tom Strange]

Is this the same song? ...man! I'm totally lost here... where are the other guys?

[waysider]

I couldn't find a "smiley" of a guy sratching his head so this will have to do:

[GeorgeStGeorge]

I haven't recognized a song for the last five pages.

George

Same song, The answer is Head Keeper by Dave Mason. So since no one could figure this out how about this one!

There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure

And you know sometimes words have two meanings

In the tree by the brook there's a songbird who sings

Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven .

That would be Stairway to Heaven by Led Zep

But I am gonna have to dig out my Headkeeper Album I totally forgot about that song... As we interTWIne lets try this:

..........................play us a tune

Something to make us all happy

Do anything take us out of this gloom

Sing a song, play guitar

Make it snappy

You are the one who can make us all laugh

But doing that you break out in tears

Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had

We wouldn't have known you all these years

[Tom Strange]

I've got that one easily... (at least I'm pretty sure I do)

"Dear Mr Fantasy"

Traffic

[WordWolf]

I haven't recognized a song for the last five pages.

George

I've recognized a few, but THOSE get named immediately.

[wasway]

Traffic is Terriffic

YER Tern Tom

[Tom Strange]

Here's one for you GSG!

(as we continue to intertwine)

My head's a-spinning

And I'm floating to sound

Too much is happening

'Cause you're not around

It's been a hard day

And nothing went too good

I'm gonna relax

Like everybody should

[GeorgeStGeorge]

That's sweet, Tom, but I have no idea what that song is!

George

[waysider]

GSG-------This one is definately from an era you are very familiar with.

HMMM? I wonder if I could get TS to gimme some more of those lyrics?

[Tom Strange]

GSG! look at the clue in waysider's post! Here's the first stanza...

Well my temperature's rising

And my feet left the floor

Crazy people knocking,

'Cause they want some more.

Let me in baby,

I don't know what you got

You better take it easy.

This place is hot.

(then the chorus)

(then the next verse)

My head's a-spinning

And I'm floating to sound

Too much is happening

'Cause you're not around

It's been a hard day

And nothing went too good

I'm gonna relax

Like everybody should

(then the chorus again)

(then one more verse)

And don't forget the intertwining from the previous song (Dear Mr Fantasy, Traffic)

[wasway]

C'mon GSG you KNOW this one

[GeorgeStGeorge]

I would have to guess it's "Gimme Some Lovin'"; but I don't even remember the artist.

George

[Tom Strange]

what say the judges?

...do you know what the "intertwining" part is?

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Nope.

George

[waysider]

GSG--------The intertwining part refers to Steve Winwood,though when he was in this group he was still called STEVIE Winwood( Because he was only 15 or 16 years old. )Of course, now he shrugs that off and insists:"I'm a Man!"
