The Friday Random Guess 10:
- Their small-town eyes will gape at you
- There’s a reckless feeling in your heart as you head out tonight
- Heads turn when you hit the room
- Let your legs loll on the lino
- Tear me apart, including this old heart
- Blue morning, blue morning, wrapped in strands of fist and bone
- They stencilled their drum heads and guitars with their names
- I was eight years old and running with a dime in my hand
- So roll me over, over, over while you turn your head
- Oh ladies, pleasant and demure, sallow-cheeked and sure
There’s even something approaching a theme this week, even if it did sort of need to be shoehorned in there for a couple of the lyrics. (Can you guess it?)
Anyway, that’s what these are: song lyrics. You guess the song title and band, and we all clap and cheer uproariously when you get it right. Sound like fun? Good, because that’s how it works. Oh, and we did this last week, too, if you were wondering how that played out.
As always, best of luck!
Ooh, first one at bat. And I got nothin’. A couple sound familiar, but nope. You have stumped me this time.
There appears to be a body part theme. But I am, too, am otherwise stumped.
#6 – Counting Crows, “A Murder of One”
#8 – Bruce Springsteen, “My Hometown”
1. At Seventeen, Janis Ian
8. My Hometown, Bruce Springsteen
All I knew was the Springsteen song, but I’m way too late for even that.
