    LOL I was just posting that IDK your song seaotter but that Joe Cocker did a kickin' version of Feelin' All Right.  IDK your song either Sugar, it's a sign, I'd better head out for a walk.  :-)

    Hey Joe - Jimmy Hendrix

    Looks like Seotter and I both put songs up at the same time.  Mine is still up for grabs.  Here it is again...

    The war was over and the spirit was broken
    The hills were smokin' as the men withdrew
    We stood on the cliffs
    Oh, and watched the ships
    Slowly sinking to their rendezvous
    They signed a treaty and our homes were taken
    Loved ones forsaken
    They didn't give a damn

    Okay to keep the game moving...here's the answer:

    Acadian Driftwood by The Band

    Here's a new song:

    Why do we never get an answer
    When we're knocking at the door?
    With a thousand million questions
    About hate and death and war.

    Question by the Moody Blues

    Go ahead and hate your neighbor

    Go ahead and cheat a friend

    Do it in the name of Heaven

    You can justify it in the end

    One Tin Soldier, Skeeter Davis

    Did you find a directing sign
    on the straight and narrow highway?
    Would you mind a reflecting sign
    Just let it shine within your mind

    Blood Sweet and Tears

    Living in the city
    I've been abused, he has
    Jobs I keep the people I meet
    They don't do more than make me amused

    Okay, here it is: Animal Zoo - by Spirit

    Here's another one (I used to play this one on the piano all the time):

    Once I thought I saw you
    in a crowded hazy bar,
    Dancing on the light
    from star to star.
    Far across the moonbeam
    I know that's who you are,
    I saw your brown eyes
    turning once to fire.

    Like a Hurricane - Neil Young

    I met a gin soaked, bar-room queen in Memphis
    She tried to take me upstairs for a ride.
    She had to heave me right across her shoulder
    'cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind.

    Honky Talk Woman - The Rolling StonesSweet blossom come on, under the willow

    We can have high times if you'll abide
    We can discover the wonders of nature
    Rolling in the rushes down by the riverside

    She's got everything delightful
    She's got everything I need
    Takes the wheel when I'm seeing double
    Pays my ticket when I speed

    Sugar Magnolia - Grateful Dead Kiss 

    I pulled into Nazareth, I was feelin' about half past dead;
    I just need some place where I can lay my head.
    "Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"
    He just grinned and shook my hand, and "No!", was all he said.

    The Weight - The Band (love The Band!!!)

    I see your armor plated breast
    Has long since lost its sheen
    And in your death mask face
    There are no signs which can be seen
    And though I hoped for something to find
    I could see no place to unwind

    One of my all-time favourite song from the early 70's....Conquistador by Procol Harem!

    You are my whole, babe

    My heart and my soul, babe

    I'd having nothing to show, babe

    If you should go away

    Which Way You Going, Billy? by the Poppy Family.   I think I'm showing my age as I loved this song when I was 10 and that was in 1970.   Terry and Susan Jacks wrote and sang some great songs back in the day!

    Collie-flower...I'm not far behind you.  I was six in 1970!  My favourite Terry Jacks song was Concrete Sea.  I remember singing that song in our Plymouth Fury on the way to the cottage one summer.  Good memories!

    Collie-flower and Sugar,

    I was born in 1962 too, and you brought back memories with the Pymouth Fury thing.  We had a Chevy Concourse station wagon that I actually got my driver's license in.  What a boat!  You guys didn't post a new song.  Shall I?  How bout this one, one of my all time favorite songs:

    There's a place I like to hide, a doorway that I run to in the night,

    Relax child you were there, you only didn't realize and you were scared.

    It's a place where you will learn, to face your fears, retrace the years

    And ride the whims of your mind...........

    Wow....Plymouth Fury, Chevy Concourse station wagon....your Dad's must've been cool!  My Dad drove a '64 Pontiac Laurentian!!  Hard to believe we all sat in those bench seats without a seatbelt in sight!  

    But for the life of me, I don't know that song Sharon....lovely lyrics!

    Silent Lucidity - Queensryche

    Love I get so lost, sometimes
    Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
    When I want to run away
    I drive off in my car
    But whichever way I go
    I come back to the place you are

    All my instincts, they return
    And the grand facade, so soon will burn
    Without a noise, without my pride
    I reach out from the inside

    In Your Eyes - Peter Gabriel   great song!

    I've been searching a long time
    For someone exactly like you
    I've been travelling all around the world
    Waiting for you to come through.
    Someone like you makes it
    All worth while

    (check out the link I posted above to "In Your Eyes")

    Someone Like You - Van Morrison

    On the first part of the journey
    I was looking at all the life
    There were plants and birds
    and rocks and things.
    There was sand and hills and rings.

    The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
    and a sky with no clouds.
    The heat was hot
    and the ground was dry
    but the air was full of sound.

    Horse With No Name - America    love your taste!!!!

    Is everything a baited hook?
    And are there locks on all doors?
    If you're looking for an open book,
    Look no further, I am yours.

    We'll behave like animals, swing from tree to tree
    We can do anything that turns you up
    and sets you free

    So sorry. It is Southern Girl by Incubus

    This one is easy

    Well our hearts beat like thunder
    I don't know why they don't explode
    You got your hands in my back pockets
    And Sam Cooke's singin' on the radio
    You say that I'm the boy who can make it all come true
    Well I'm tellinya that I don't know if I know what to do
