Not too many guesses last week. But that was positively a blow-out compared to the week before. Will this week turn the tide?
- “Here Comes the Flood” by Oysterband, guessed by Chris McLaren
Some people think I’m crazy but I’m not - “Georgia on My Mind” by Ray Charles, guessed by Kim
Other arms reach out to me - “Jailhouse Rock” by John Mellencamp (orig. Elvis Presley), guessed by tammy
I sure would be delighted with your company - “My Rights Versus Yours” by the New Pornographers
But there’s dangerous levels of it here - “Searchin'” by the Beatles (orig. the Coasters), guessed by Kim
I’m gonna walk right down that street like a Bulldog Drummond - “Trouble” by Ray LaMontagne, guessed by Kim
Worry just will not seem to leave my mind alone - “As Is” by Ani DiFranco
You can’t hide behind social graces - “Wages of Sin” by Damien Jurado & Rosie Thomas (orig. Bruce Springsteen)
I was running down that broken path with the devil snapping at my heels - “Rumble with the Gang Debs” by Tullycraft
They’re taking lipstick out tonight - “Total Eclipse of the Heart” by Bonnie Tyler, guessed by Kim
And we’ll only be making it right
Guess the lyric, win no prize! Good luck!
#3 – Jailhouse Rock – Elvis Presley. But isn’t it also in a Georgia Satellites song. Hmmmm.
Most of these sound familiar, but these are the ones I think I know
2. Georgia on My Mind, covered by lots, I’ll go with Ray Charles
5. Searchin’, not sure who did it originally, so I’ll go with the Beatles
6. Trouble, by Ray LaMontagne
10. Total Eclipse of the Heart by Bonnie Tyler
#2 is Georgia On My Mind, by Ray Charles
#5 is Searchin’, by the Coasters (or was it the Drifters? No, I think it’s the Coasters. In any event, it was written by Lieber-Stoller.)
I’m sure I really know a couple others here, but those are the only two that come to mind immediately.
If you have any sense that first line is from the Oysterband’s “Here Comes The Flood”.
Whether I have any sense is debatable, but that is the song.
