ChrisBcritter Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) "I broke your heart, and I made you blue Instead of hurting back, you said 'I love you'"... Hint: Recorded by four very different singers in the '60s, including one you wouldn't expect... Edited February 6, 2015 by ChrisBcritter
ChrisBcritter Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 "I know if you'd seen her You'd tell me cause you are my friend I've got to find her And find out the trouble she's in If you tell me she isn't here I'll follow the trail of her tears..." Hint: A lot of singers covered this one too, including one legendary rock 'n' roller...
Crazy Ed Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Herman's Hermits - "No Milk Today" Yep, You got it.
Guest Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) hey Lee, hope you don't mind but the song was titled "Memphis Tennessee". yea, i'm a big Johnny Rivers fan, hope you don't mind the correction. No problem, and Uncle Albert was by Mcartney and Wings, not the Beatles. Edited February 7, 2015 by midnightprowler

Custom Mike Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 It's a high time to fight When the walls are closing in Call it what you like It's time you got to win
Custom Mike Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Life isn't easy from a singular side Down in the holes Some emotions are hard to hide It's your decision It's a chance that you take It's on your head It's a habit that's hard to break
Custom Mike Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) Young man's heart is hungry His soul is on fire But there's no tears in his eyes Because there's no discern it's a long way home And everybody knows Cause it's gonna come So people get ready now Let's add a couple more verses and drop a few hints. This song was released in 1991, and the band's name was the same as the 16 year old guitar prodigy in the band. His older brother handled the vocals, and the song reached #9 on the US mainstream Rock chart. See the pain in her eyes Just a little girl Caught up in the tide Turns her heart against the world It's a long way home And everybody knows Cause it's gonna come So people get ready now Edited February 7, 2015 by Custom Mike
Harry P. Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Springsteen, Hungry Heart. Or maybe it's The Promised Land. Elvis Costello, Radio Radio. The Promised Land is correct. So is Radio Radio... Atlantis, by Donovan
Harry P. Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Long ago and Far away, by the Carpenters Right song, wrong title. It's "Superstar." But I give you credit for thinking of the right song,,,
Harry P. Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 I know I've heard this one Harry, but my brain won't let me get the words out! Sister Havana by Urge Overkill.
Custom Mike Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Sister Havana by Urge Overkill. My brain knew every word as soon as you posted this,,,it hates me sometimes! I've still got Saturation on cassette, sealed and everything, I lost track of the CD years ago though!

Harry P. Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Another local band (local to me, that is)... "Wherever you go, I'll be with you, Whatever you want, I'll give it to you."

Definitely a tough one, UO was never really big nationally, but they were pretty big here in Chicago for a while. Home town heroes...
Harry P. Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 "Breakdown on the shoreline, can't move, it's an ebbtide. Morning don't get here tonight, searching for her silver light."
Harry P. Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 "They said "Yes, she's been here." But their memory wasn't clear. Was it yesterday? No, wait… the day before"...
Crazy Ed Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Right song, wrong title. It's "Superstar." But I give you credit for thinking of the right song,,, For some reason I always thought the first line was the title! Whooops. Never owned a Carpenters Album, but never had a problem listening to 'em.
Harry P. Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 For some reason I always thought the first line was the title! Whooops. Never owned a Carpenters Album, but never had a problem listening to 'em. Oddly enough, though the title is "Superstar," that word isn't in the lyrics at all.

Crazy Ed Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 Better stay away from those that carry 'round a firehose, keep a clean nose, watch the plain clothes, you don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows. This'n should'nt be hard
