DaveStL 85 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Whining? You think that's whining? Next song, clue 1 would have been "oh say can". Or perhaps "True North strong". Go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene C 1,745 Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 So who's up? I'm not following any of this so far. How about some songs most of us have at least heard before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveStL 85 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Hey, that first Head East album went gold. I thought it was more widely known--definitely a local favorite, first big concert I attended. Rod got it; he's up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daddyjt 8,747 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 The Tragically Hip 38 Years Old (Nice double clue, BTW!) Twelve men broke loose in seventy three From Millhaven Maximum Security Twelve pictures lined up across the front page Seems the Mounties had a summertime war to wage Well, the chief told the people they had nothing to fear Said, "The last thing they want to do is hang around here" They mostly came from towns with long French names But one of the dozen was a hometown shame Same pattern on the table, same clock on the wall Been one seat empty eighteen years in all Freezing slow time, away from the world He's thirty eight years old, never kissed a girl He's thirty eight years old, never kissed a girl We were sitting round the table, heard the telephone ring Father said he tell them if he saw anything Heard the tap on my window in the middle of the night Held back the curtain for my older brother Mike See my sister got raped so a man got killed Local boy went to prison, man's buried on the hill Folks went back to normal when they closed the case They still stare at their shoes when they pass our place My mother cried, "The horror has finally ceased" He whispered, "Yeah, for the time being at least" And over her shoulder on the squad car megaphone Said, "Let's go, Michael, son, we're taking you home" Same pattern on the table, same clock on the wall Been one seat empty eighteen years in all Freezing slow time, away from the world He's thirty eight years old, never kissed a girl He's thirty eight years old, never kissed a girl He's thirty eight years old, never kissed a girl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gene C 1,745 Posted November 14, 2014 Author Share Posted November 14, 2014 "like a child" I know you don't listen to Back Street Boys... So I'll take a stab with Paul Simon's Something So Right. You’ve got the cool water When the fever runs high You’ve got the look of lovelight In your eyes And I was in crazy motion ‘Til you calmed me down It took a little time But you calmed me down When something goes wrong I’m the first to admit it I’m the first to admit it But the last one to know When something goes right Oh, it’s likely to lose me It’s apt to confuse me It’s such an unusual sight Oh, I can’t get used to something so right Something I can’t so right They got a wall in China It’s a thousand miles long To keep out the foreigners They made it strong And I got a wall around me That you can’t even see It took a little time To get next to me When something goes wrong I’m the first to admit it I’m the first to admit it But the last one to know When something goes right Oh, it’s likely to lose me It’s apt to confuse me Because it’s such an unusual sight Oh, I swear, I can’t get used to something so right Something so right Some people never say the words “I love you” It’s not their style To be so bold Some people never say those words “I love you” But like a child they’re longing to be told When something goes wrong I’m the first to admit it I’m the first to admit it But the last one to know When something goes right Oh, it’s likely to lose me It’s apt to confuse me Because it’s such an unusual sight I swear, I can’t get used to something so right Something so right Something so right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RodH 4,855 Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Heart: Magic man Cold late night so long ago When I was not so strong you know A pretty man came to me Never seen eyes so blue I could not run away It seemed we'd seen each other in a dream It seemed like he knew me He looked right through me "Come on home, girl" he said with a smile "You don't have to love me yet Let's get high awhile But try to understand Try to understand Try try try to understand I'm a magic man." Winter nights we sang in tune Played inside the months of moon Never think of never Let this spell last forever Summer over passed to fall Tried to realized it all Mama says she's a worried Growing up in a hurry "Come on home, girl" mama cried on the phone "Too soon to lose my baby yet my girl should be at home!" "But try to understand, try to understand Try try try to understand He's a magic man, mama He's a magic man" "Come on home, girl" he said with a smile "I cast my spell of love on you a woman from a child! But try to understand, try to understand I'm a magic man!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
