an almost random set of songs apart from in my olden days of capital radio i have played all these tracks at least once and therefore they date back to the 70s. most are easy, but i do know the answers, a couple could be classed as "stinkers"
no more than 4 answers per person per 6 hours
1 I'm sayin' all the things that I know you'll like, Makin' good conversation. I gotta handle you just right, You know what I mean.
2 Picked up a boy just south of Mobile, Gave him a ride, filled him with a hot meal. I was 16, he was 21. Rode with us to Memphis
3 How could you leave me When I needed to possess you? I hated you, I loved you too
4 I'm givin' up, I'm leavin', Yes, I'm ready to be free, The thrill is gone, I'm movin on 'Cause you've stopped pleasin' me, I can't stand bein' handled, I've exhausted each excuse, I've even stooped to fakin' it, But tell me what's the use
5 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 an' fillin' up my senses
6 The minute the band begins to swing it, He's on his feet to dig it and dance the night away, Stop, I'm spinnin' like a top, We'll dance until we drop, but if I have my way
7 Well your sister's got the feline touch, she touches up your mind, And your eagle lover likes his little bit of evil loving all the time, Don't let the cat get into the eagle's nest at night
8 Once I had a love and it was divine, Soon found out I was losing my mind, It seemed like the real thing but I was so blind, Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
9 Just the other day I was praying that he'd give me a chance, Hoping he would choose me for his partner for the high school dance, I was standing outside the class
10 It really brought him down because he couldn't jam, The captain seemed to understand, Because the next day the cap' went out and drafted a band, And now the company jumps when he plays reveille
11 But nothing more or less will do, Just me and you, Honey sweet and harmony, Will melt away that bitter memory, It's gotta be
12 oh I woke up this morning with sunshine through my window, Everything thats happened so far has turned out right, And I got every reason to feel its getting better
13 they say that life is a circle, But that ain't the way that I found it, Gonna move in a straight line, Keeping my feet firmly on the ground
14 I don't want to leave him now, You know I believe him how. You're asking me will my love grow. I don't know, I don't know.
15 I remember when, You couldn't wait to love me, Used to hate to leave me, Now after lovin' me late at night
16 And I get to the morning and you never call, Love should be everything or not at all, And it don't matter whatever you do, I made a life out of loving you
17 Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa nova.You'll be dancing with 'em too before the night is over. Happy again, The lights are much brighter there
18 I'm so lonesome for you it's a crime, Going to a movie only makes me sad, Parties make me feel as bad ,When I'm not with you
19 I'm right on target, my aim is straight So you're in love, I say what of it? Things can change, there's always changes ,I want to try some rearranging, I say,,,,,,,,
20 And I want to give, I'm completely positive, I think this time around, I am gonna do it, Like you never knew it

5) A bit of Dolly! 'Here you come again' 14) Something - Beatles 17) Management says it's 'Down Town'. Tried to convince me by singing it but her singing and tunes did not come from the same dictionary.

Diana Ross - I'm Coming Out (but don't start too many rumours about it!) BB Warrior finishes it off with four correct answers For a time Suzi was a local lass living just up the road and her ex is still in the area gigging in pubs with his band, well at least he was until covid put a stop to live music |
