dbflash Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Grog,Thanks for the clue. I would never have gotten that in a million years. I still don't know what the song is, but I figured out the Archies with the clue. I only know Sugar Sugar.The other song is Curtis Lowe by LS.Crap, now its my turn.I have been burning CD's to my ipod and have it hooked up to the car stereo. I loaded about 300 blues songs so that's all I can think of now. I'll get back in a little while with more lyric's or if anyone else has a song feel free to post them.DannyOk in the Archies era, this was the first one that started it:Love, you're such a sweet thingGood enough to eat thing And it's just a-what I'm gonna do Ooh love to hold ya Ooh love to kiss ya Ooh love I love it so Ooh love you're sweeter Sweeter than sugar Ooh love I wont let you go (I looked it up) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grog Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Now that is a classic! 1910 Fruitgum Company - Yummy, Yummy, Yummy Here is another one! Since the name of the song is said so much I changed the name of the song to "NAME_OF_SONG". Can you guess who did this song? Every time I try to prove I love you, "NAME_OF_SONG", you stop me, baby you ain't right to stop me, "NAME_OF_SONG", you stop me. Every time I make a move to love you, "NAME_OF_SONG", you stop me, baby every night you stop me, "NAME_OF_SONG". Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theryugobuddy Posted December 1, 2005 Author Share Posted December 1, 2005 I'm stumped-- Is the title a girl's name? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grog Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 Hint: Name change to part of song name not all of it. Just fill in the "x", "y" and "z" and you have it. Every time I try to prove I love you, "x" "y" "z" red light, you stop me, baby you ain't right to stop me, "x" "y" "z" red light, you stop me. Every time I make a move to love you, "x" "y" "z" red light, you stop me, baby every night you stop me, "x" "y" "z" red light. Second "yummy" hint: The song before this one is a clue...

dbflash Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 Greg, I'm slow. I need more help. Is it a girls name? Danny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grog Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 "x" "y" "z" red light is the name of the song.. "x" is a number above 0 and below 2. "y" is a number above 1 and below 3. "z" is a number above 2 and below 4. So the name of the song is < your guess here >... red light. Could be like.... "4 5 6 Red Light" but that does not meet the hint above. ummmm what could it be? The group is the same group who did the last song guessed.... yummy,,... what was that group? Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grog Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 To keep the thread alive I will take your last line as a challenge. Hope you don't mind. Challenge: Danny (Only one line but that will do fine). Ballad of Danny Bailey (1909-34) - Elton John Next challenge: A quiver in my lips as if I might cry. Well by the force of will my lungs are filled and so I breathe. Lately it seems this big bed is where I never leave. The band hails from Jamestown, New York. Greg Dire Straits. Can't remember the song. heavy heavy fuel? $100 bills for suicide notes. from a great album, by the way. Danny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbflash Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Oh I know this one Greg! See I did learn something hanging around bitter women who couldn't get a date on Friday night. I would drink their wine and listen to their tunes. Another line in the song: What a cold and rainy day. Where on earth is the sun hid away." Next contestant come on down. Greg, to keep this going I was going to add one of my all time favorite songs, but it seems like every other line has the title in it so from the same album: I can see very well. There's a boat on the reef with a broken back And I can see it very well There's a joke and I know it very well It's one of those that I told you long ago Well the tubes are warmed up and I am going to put the CD on now and listen to the songs.

grog Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 In case someone did not get the answer... It was 10,000 Maniacs....Like The Weather. Your song is by Elton John, "Madman Across The Water". I liked Tiny Dancer beter which if memory serves me is on the same CD. Here is one... All the words to the song are here with the name of the song not shown. <NAME_OF_SONG>, honey Don't you know that I'm lovin' you <NAME_OF_SONG>, baby Don't you know that I'll always be true Oh won't you come with me And take my hand Oh won't you come with me We'll walk this land And please, please, take my hand That's all the words but the song was 17 minutes and 10 seconds. Oh.. one more hint here.... The remastered CD has this song three times and there are only eight songs on the CD. Great CD though.... Yes, three versions of the same song. Stayed on the charts for 140 weeks, with 81 weeks in the Top Ten. To date the album has sold in excess of 30 million copies and remains an undisputed classic in the archives of rock with DJ's and audiophiles worldwide. The group is still touring. I am playing the remastered CD right now! Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grog Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Hint time: "The group" outsold every record in the history of recorded music within the first year of its release (over eight million copies sold) and therefore outgrew and outsold the standard of the music industry's "Gold Album" award. For this achievment, "The Group" was subsequently awarded: The Industry's Very First "Platinum Album"! "The group" toured extensively, appearing throughout the U.S., Canada and Europe, where they appeared at London's world famous Royal Albert Hall. The band also appeared on stage with: Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Frank Zappa, Chicago, Janis Joplin, Steppenwolf, Canned Heat, Three Dog Night, Quicksilver, Yes, Creedence Clearwater, Rush, The Turtles, Buffalo Springfield, Crosby Stills & Nash, & The Byrds, just to name a few! Past television performances have included: The Steve Allen Show, The David Frost Show, The Red Skelton Comedy Hour, Playboy After Dark, The Dating Game, Somethin' Else, and numerous performances on American BandStand, with Dick Clark. The Band also was invited by Atlantic Records to perform on May 14, 1988 at Atlantic Records 40th Anniversary Concert "It's Only Rock'n Roll" at Madison Square Garden, in New York City which HBO taped, and televised, world-wide via satellite. "The group's" music has been featured in movies like: Savage Seven, Manhunter, Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, Night Mare On Elm Street, and Fatal Instinct,as well as the TV series Wonder Years, Hardcastle & McCormick, Roseanne, Home Improvement, The Simpsons, and Unsolved Mysteries. References to the band and their music are still frequently heard, in hit movies like Ford Fairlane, Sybling Rivalries, and several times on top TV shows: Cheers, Letterman, Dennis Miller Show, Howard Stern and numerous others. In November '95 Ron Bushy appeared on Phil Donahue, and Unsolved Mysteries. In 1996 the group appeared in: American Journal, America's Most Wanted, and People Magazine. The band was booked to play at Woodstock, but were stuck at an airport. The drummer of this group played the most famous drum solo of all time. Pictures taken on April 27, 2005 at the Lagerhalle in Osnabrück, Germany. Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callmeishmael Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 My bad. Poor clue. Sorry for the miscue. Bloodrock - D.O.A. Laying here looking at the ceilingSomeone lays a sheet across my chestSomething warm is flowing down my fingersPain is flowing all through my back I try to move my arms and there's no feelingAnd when I look I see there's nothing thereThe face beside me stopped it totally bleedingThe girl I knew has such a distant stare I rememberWe were flying along and hit something in the airI rememberWe were flying along and hit something in the air Then I looked straight at the attendantHis face is pale as it can beHe bends and whispers something softlyHe says there's no chance for me I rememberWe were flying along and hit something in the airI rememberWe were flying along and hit something in the air Life is flowing out my bodyPain is flowing out with my bloodThe sheets are red and moist where I'm lyingGod in Heaven, teach me how to die I rememberWe were flying along and hit something in the airI rememberWe were flying along and hit something in the air Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callmeishmael Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 grog Iron Butterfly. In A Gadda Da Vida. I have always liked "Soul Experience" from the album Ball. Another From The Crazy World of Arthur Brown... I am the god of hell fire, and I bring you <name of song>, I'll take you to burn <name of song>, I'll take you to learn I'll see you burn You fought hard and you saved and earned But all of it's going to burn And your mind, your tiny mind You know you've really been so blind Now 's your time, burn your mind You're falling far too far behind Oh no, oh no, oh no, you're gonna burn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbflash Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Greg, good one. knew the drum solo but never really thought about the words. favorite song from madman across the h20 is Levon. That song could end up on my all time top 10 list. callme, i think the name of the song is fire. it's the only top ten song of his i remember. oh yea welcome to the BB and keep the songs going. here's one from the muscle shoals/memphis gang: I'm gonna wait till the "song title" That's when my love comes a-tumbling down I'm gonna wait till the "song title" When there's nobody else around I'm gonna take you girl and hold you Do all the things I told you In the "song title" Yes I am I'm listening to the song track of "the commitments" as i type. i still can't believe the guy singing this song was 16.
