Jeff Matthews Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 "Life During Wartime" by the Talking Heads. Next: "In the twilight's last gleamingThis is open seasonBut you won't get too farWe know you've got to blame someoneFor your own confusionBut we're on guard this timeAgainst your final solution" Hint: This was a very popular tune by a "one hit" band. It received huge radio play. I'll be out for a while, so if you want to give up and interject a new challenge, go ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Cain Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 Through all these cities and all these towns It's in my blood and it's all around Name that tune! Sorry that nobody got it in 24 hours. Perhaps someone else can post one? Life is a Highway by Tom Cochran. Life's like a road that you travel on When there's ne day here and the next day gone Somethimes you bend and sometimes you stand Sometimes you turn your head to the wind There's a world outside ev'ry darkened door Where blues won't haunt you anymore Where brave are free and lovers soar Come ride with me to the distant shore We won't hesitate Break down the garden's gate There's not much time left today Life is a highway I wanna ride it all night long If you're going my way I wanna drive it all night long Through all these cities and all these towns It's in my blood and it's all around I love you now like I loved you then This is the road and these are the hands From Mozambique to those Memphis nights The khyber Pass to Vancouver's lights Knock me down get back up again You're in my blood I'm not a lonely man There's no load I can't hold Road so rough this I know I'll be there when the light comes in Just tell 'em we're survivors Gimme gimme gimme gimme yeah If you're going my way I wanna drive it all night long There was a distance between you and I A misunderstanding once But now we look in the eye There ain't no load that I can't hold Road so rough this I know I'll be there when the light comes in Just tell 'em we're survivors Life is a highway I wanna ride it all night long If you're going my way I wanna drive it all night long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Cain Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 No Bill--go again! You earned it!! Apologies, all. I'm in the middle of emptying out a house. Haven't been able to check as often as I'd like. I figured (hoped) that someone else would post a challange. Here's one by a world-class band: Messrs. K and H assure the public Their production will be second to none And of course Henry The Horse dances the waltz! Name that tune! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olorin Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Oh man, it's The Beatles, White Album I think, I just can't come up with the title . . . more lyrics from memory, forgive me if they are not quite right For the benefit of Mr. Kite, there will be a show tonight on trampoline The Hendersons will all be there, (blah blah blah blah blah blah blah), what a scene!

Sounds like a weiner to me. You're up!!!! From "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" "Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite!" For the benefit of Mr. Kite There will be a show tonight on trampoline The Hendersons will all be there Late of Pablo Fanques Fair, what a scene! Over men and horses hoops and garters Lastly through a hogshead of real fire! In this way Mr. Kite will challenge the world! The celebrated Mr. Kite Performs his feat on Saturday at Bishopsgate The Hendersons will dance and sing As Mr. Kite flys through the ring, don't be late! Messrs. K and H assure the public Their production will be second to none And of course Henry The Horse dances the waltz! The band begins at ten to six When Mr. Kite performs his tricks without a sound And Mr. H will demonstrate Ten summersets he'll undertake on solid ground Having been some days in preparation A splendid time is guaranteed for all And tonight Mr. Kite is topping the bill!

Olorin Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Wasn't really prepared for that, but okay . . . My eyes convinced, eclipsed with the younger moon attained with love. It changed as almost strained amidst clear manna from above. I crucified my hate and held the word within my hand. Theres you, the time, the logic, or the reasons we dont understand.

Ray Garrison Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Yes, Close To The Edge, cut two side one... but I've no idea what the name of the song is... Just in case that passes, how about: God sends his spaceships to America, the beautiful They land at six o'clock and there we are, the dutiful Eating from TV trays, tuned in to Happy Days Waiting for World War III while Jesus slaves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
