Name that Tune - No Cheating Using Computer Word Searches

[TheEAR]

Jeff Matthews sings Hot coffe on my lap

[Jeff Matthews]

Wuzzup, Ear!!! You mean you didn't know that tune?

[theryugobuddy]

"Beer Drinkers and Hellraisers" by ZZ Top.

Next:

"Time passes much too quickly when we're together laughing."

I doubt you need more than just this line.

Name that Tune!

Still on Chicago? thats good--

Beginnings

How about this:

Oh I just dont know where to begin

Though he says hell wait forever

Its now or never

But she keeps him hanging on

The silly champion

She says she cant go home

Without a chaperone

[whamo]

"Accidents will happen" Elvis Costello" from "Armed Forces" ..Classic!

[whamo]

O.K. Try this one.. It wasn't very large. There was

just enough room to cram the drums in the corner over by the dodge. It

was a 54 with a mashed up door and a cheesy little amp with a sign on

the front saying fender champ.

[rplace]

Joe's Garage - Zappa

It was a stratocaste with a whammy bar [8]

Here ya go

There were ghosts in the eyes
Of all the boys you sent away

[rplace]

This is a song that everybody in the world knows...well just about. I picked some of the more obscure words to make it tough...here is some more

There were ghosts in the eyes
Of all the boys you sent away
They haunt this dusty beach road
In the skeleton frames

[whamo]

Just a wild guess..Boys of Summer, Don Henley?

[rplace]

Bzzzzz, wrong - Thanks for playing. Older song.

More lyrics...you will get if for sure now.

There were ghosts in the eyes
Of all the boys you sent away
They haunt this dusty beach road
In the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets
They scream your name at night in the street
Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet

[TheEAR]

10 min. Rule violation for posting new challenge. The game must keep moving.

Next Lyrics:

"And if I say to you tomorrow, take my hand child come with me."

Name that Tune!

Led Zep...ah what tune...hmmm....do not remember.

I better participate more often.Damn late as always! [:$]

[theryugobuddy]

Its to a castle I will take you, for

"What is and What Should Never Be"

How about this:

Now -
The mist across the window hides the lines
But nothing hides the colour of the lights that shine
Electricity so fine
Look and dry your eyes

We -
So tired of all the darkness in our lives
With no more angry words to say
Can come alive
Get into a car and drive
To the other side

Hey rplace--what song was that?

[rplace]

Hey rplace--what song was that?

Wow, I am shocked. Did nobody listen to AOR style radio in the 70/80 this song was played to death.

Thunder Road - Springsteen

There were ghosts in the eyes

Of all the boys you sent away

They haunt this dusty beach road

In the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets

They scream your name at night in the street

Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet

And in the lonely cool before dawn

You hear their engines roaring on

But when you get to the porch they're gone

On the wind so Mary climb in

It's town full of losers

And I'm pulling out of here to win

Oh-oh Thunder Road oh Thunder Road

Lying out there like a killer in the sun

Hey I know it's late we can make it if we run

Oh Thunder Road sit tight take hold

Thunder Road

[theryugobuddy]

How about this:

Now -

The mist across the window hides the lines

But nothing hides the colour of the lights that shine

Electricity so fine

Look and dry your eyes

We -

So tired of all the darkness in our lives

With no more angry words to say

Can come alive

Get into a car and drive

To the other side

Not many bites--

Well, here is a big hint-- these are lyrics to the song that this artist is best known for:

Guess either one and the next challenge is yours:

Pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street

From my window Im staring while my coffee grows cold

Look over there! (where? )

Theres a lady that I used to know

Shes married now, or engaged, or something, so I am told

[theryugobuddy]

An Elvis Costello contemporary --

Last and first name start with the same letter--

The first set of lyrics' title has to do with moving in a direction

The second set questions a person's choice of date--

This i easier than Thunder Road!!!

[rplace]

Joe Jackson, I think the 2nd one is "Something's Going Wrong Around Here" or there about. Is the first one "Stepping Out"?

Correct?

I still think Thunder Road is a song just about every person on this forum would have at least heard of, no?

[theryugobuddy]

I still think Thunder Road is a song just about every person on this forum would have at least heard of, no?

Just kidding -- Funny how I'd heard it hundreds of times and didn't connect when I saw the lyrics written!

Yes-- Joe Jackson "Steppin Out" and "Is She Really Going Out With Him?" both killer songs --

Gotta challenge?

[rplace]

Should be easy...I think []

It's down to me
The difference in the clothes she wears
Down to me, the change has come

[whamo]

Finally, that first one was driving me nuts trying to figure out and I used to have all of those joe jackson records!

[oldtimer]

Should be easy...I think []

It's down to me

The difference in the clothes she wears

Down to me, the change has come

Under My Thumb--Rolling Stones

[oldtimer]

Here's one for dedicated Art Rockers:

Stand and fight we do consider
Reminded of an inner pact between us
That's seen as we go
And ride there
In motion
To fields in debts of honour defending
