This weekend is the 2007 World Fantasy Convention in Saratoga. I won’t be there, but I am sort of toying with the idea of attending it or another convention next year to support Kaleidotrope. (Of course, next year’s, in Calgary, isn’t quite as close.)
Anyway, one of the reasons I won’t be there is that I’ll be visiting my sister in Maryland. So I’m posting the Friday Random Guess 10 a little earlier than usual:
- “Mandinka” by Sinead O’Connor, guessed by Eric
I’m dancing the seven veils - “I’ve Got a Feeling” by Ivy
I’ve been watching the world pass by all around me - “I Dig Love” by George Harrison, guessed by Eric
Small love, big love, I don’t care - “Beautiful Night” by Paul McCartney, guessed by Kim
They’ve got castles in Versailles - “Walk Right In” by Rooftop Singers, guessed by Eric
Daddy, let your mind roll on - “The Carbon Cycle” by Hard ‘n Phirm, guessed by Kim
I wake up in the forest in a jacket made of rayon - “Like Dreamers Do” by the Beatles, guessed by Kim
You came just one dream ago - “Fast As You Can” by Fiona Apple, guessed by Eric
I let the beast in too soon - “Cocaine” by J.J. Cale, guessed by Eric
She don’t lie, she don’t lie, she don’t lie - “Have a Good Time” by Paul Simon
Yesterday it was my birthday
I’m hoping to post the answers to last week’s lyrics before I leave tomorrow morning, but I can make no guarantees at this point. In fact, at this point, all I really can guarantee is that I need sleep.
Anyway, as always, good luck!
Update: Here are last week’s answers, if you want to check your work.
#1 — Sinead O’Connor, “Mandinka”
#3 — George Harrison, “I Dig Love”
#5 — Janis Joplin, “Walk Right In”
#8 — Fiona Apple, “Fast as You Can”
#9 — Eric Clapton, “Cocaine”
#10 — But I won the essay contest!
Calgary?! Come to Calgary!
4. Beautiful Night by Paul McCartney
6. The Carbon Cycle by Hard N Phirm
7. Like Dreamers Do by the Beatles
Have a good trip!
Not Joplin on #5, but otherwise all correct. Looks like that just leaves #2.
