Name that Tune

[Bluzeman]

Well, this one will definetly be for the oldsters!

I can tell your future, it will come to pass

I can do things to you make your heart feel glad

Look in the sky, predict the rain

Tell when a woman's got another man

[GeorgeStGeorge]

"Seventh Son" by Johnny Rivers?

George

[Bluzeman]

You got it George!

Rick

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Well, thank you, could I drink you a buy?

George

[waysider]

Well, thank you, could I drink you a buy?

George

Don't think I've ever heard this one but it sounds like a pretty lever clyric. HIC!

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Well, thank you, could I drink you a buy?

Oh, listen to me. What I mean is can I buy you a drink?

Anything you please.

George

I confess, I have never heard this one but my friend, dundat, who is a newbie( you know, Ben Dare and Dundat) knew it right away but is having trouble getting a post to go through.

And so on behalf of "dundat", the tune is:

The Chair----------George Strait

Hi, dundat-----------

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Correct. I thought I'd throw in a little C&W.

George

[dundat]

Thanks Waysider for filling in for me until I could get in..Hi all, thank you for inviting me in.

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Well, now that you're here, how about giving us a song line to figure out? As long as it was actually aired (not just an album cut), it's fair game.

George

[dundat]

Here goes...

"I'm wasting my time you'll never be mine :)

[Tom Strange]

Sounds like something from The James Gang... either that or Foreigner...

[WordWolf]

It's a common sentiment...

now have I ever heard these exact lyrics,

or just something similar?

*thinks*

[Tom Strange]

my thoughts exactly... and my brain doesn't work that well sometimes..

[dundat]

Okay I'll give you more

"there's another before me I'm wasting my time you'll never be mine

[Tom Strange]

Well... Midnight Confession by The Grass Roots comes to mind... but it goes:

"there's another before me, you'll never be mine I'm wasting my time"

[dundat]

Details Good job

[Tom Strange]

yeah... I just kept hearing that song in my head... (of course, I hear a lot of things 'in my head')

[Tom Strange]

this should be easy enough (with this crowd)... one of my favorites!

My uncle has a country place, that no one knows about

He says it used to be a farm...

[WordWolf]

I believe I have the artists, but I can't cudgel up the song title yet.

[Tom Strange]

Here's the rest of the first stanza to help your memory:

My uncle has a country place, that no one knows about

He says it used to be a farm, before the motor law

And on sundays i elude the 'eyes' and hop the turbine freight

To far outside the wire, where my white-haired uncle waits.

(break of screaming guitar and drums and bass)...

is that enough to jog the memory?

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Not mine.

George

[Tom Strange]

Where is wasway? ...waysider? ...CalDreamer?

This one is easy... (you get a pass GSG as you were probably locked in a lab somewhere)

[waysider]

I think I might know the band but have no idea what the song title is.

I'll just take my time. I don't want to rush to any conclusions.

I'm not planning to venture too far outside away from the 'puter because there is a big Arctic blast predicted to blow in from the Great White North. BRRR!

[Ca_dreaming]

Nope doesn't ring a bell
