    Candle in the wind. Elton John



    They say Spain is pretty, though I've never been

    Well Daniel say it's the best place he's ever seen

    Oh and he should know, he's been there enough

    Daniel....also Elton John

    How you tried to set them free

    They would not listen, they did not know how

    Perhaps they'll listen now

    Vincent  --  Don McClean

    You could have a steam train
    if you'd just lay down your tracks
    You could have an aeroplane flying
    if you bring your blue sky back
    All you do is call me
    I'll be anything you need

    Sledgehammer - Peter Gabriel

    Yeah, I'm a Napalm bomb for you, baby
    Guaranteed to blow your mind
    And if I can't have your love for my own
    Sweet child, won't be nothing left behind.

    Whole Lotta Love ~ Led Zeppelin

    When I was a little boy

    And the devil would call my name

    I say now who do,  who do you think you're foolin'?

    (badger, sorry I didn't get to yours quick enough.)

    Loves Me Like A Rock  --  Paul Simon

    I don't want your lonely mansion with a tear in every room
    All I want's the love you promised beneath the haloed moon
    But you think I should be happy with your money and your name
    And hide myself in sorrow while you play your cheating game

    Silver Threads and Golden Needles - Linda Ronstadt

    All you gotta do is smile that smile
    and there go all my defenses.
    Just leave it up to you and in a little while
    you're messin' up my mind and fillin' up my senses.

    Here You Come Again - Dolly Parton

    They come from the cities
    And they come from the smaller towns
    Beat up cars with guitars and drummers
    Goin' crack boom bam

    OH, dang, I knew I knew that Dolly Parton song, but it wouldn't come to me.  Don't think I know the one above though.  Saw Jersey Boys last night.  Great music and a great story!  Sorry to interrupt the game.

    R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A. - John Mellencamp

    Sounds of laughter shades of life are ringing
    Through my opened ears inciting and inviting me
    Limitless undying Love which shines around me like a
    million suns, and calls me on and on...

    not sure of the title but it's the Beatles... nothing's gonna change my world...

    hey Kay, you're part of the fun of the game so chime in whenever!  I'm living vicariously through folks like you and Suzanne who get tix to cool shows.  Cool

    Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down, I pray.
    Oh pretty baby, now that I found you. Stay.

    Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You..(..or maybe its called You're Just Too Good To Be True?) I would say Frankie Valle did it, but I wonder if it is an older song that he re-did?

    You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice

    If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice 

    (hey badger!  I did recently go on a ticket-buying-binge...it's not always like this!  And Paul Simon was pretty cool! Cool

    Mine was The Beatles...Across the Universe.

    Free Will - Rush

    You say you love me
    And I hardly know your name
    And if I say I love you in the candlelight
    There's no one but myself to blame
    But there's something inside
    That's turning my mind away
    Oh how I could love you
    If I could let you stay

    I miss Freddie.  :(

    IDK those lyrics but have to mention a new TV commercial with a montage of people singing the wrong words to Elton John's Rocket Man.  The hero is someone who owns the right car with a stereo so crisp the owner can actually hear the right words:

    Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone

    makes me think of this thread every time!  Cool

    IDK kate2011's lyrics either, but I have seen that commercial too.  Funny!  One of my favorite misheard lyrics is:

    Don't fool around tonight, it's bound to take your life, there's a bathroom on the right.

    Kate, you forgot to check in and left us languishing for days.  I guess I could have Googled it???

    Anyway, moving right along with another...

    Whatever happened to all this season's losers of the year?
    Every time I got to thinking, where'd they disappear?
    When I woke up, Mom and Dad were rolling on the couch
    Rolling numbers, rock and rollin', got my KISS records out

    Surrender....Cheap Trick

    I'm a winner, I'm a sinner

    Do you want my autograph

    I'm a loser, what a joker

    Playing my jokes upon you

    The lyrics were from Wall Street Shuffle -- 10cc.  Here's another:

    Time, time, time, see what's become of me
    While I looked around
    For my possibilities
    I was so hard to please
    But look around, leaves are brown
    And the sky is a ..........................

    Hazy Shade of Winter -- Simon & Garfunkel

    O.K., I heard this one on my car radio tonight when I went to pick up Chinese food.  It was quite the coincidence because when the song came out, a friend of mine misheard the chorus and thought it actually said, "Chinese Drive-In."   No idea why.

    She wants to send him a letter, uh yeah yeah
    Just to try to make herself feel better
    It said "Gimme (Gimme a call sometime)"
    But she knows what that'll get her

    Oh, oh, oh _________ ________.

    My baby just wrote me a letter. The box tops





    We stood there lost in our embarassment

    As the conversation dragged

    We went to have ourselves

    A drink or two

    But couldn't find an open bar

    OK that was a hard one- Magnet & Steel by Walter Egan

    I was born in the wagon of a travellin' show
    My mama used to dance for the money they'd throw
    Papa would do whatever he could
    Preach a little gospel, sell a couple bottles of doctor good
