1. You're a discontented mother
Edited on Fri Jan-30-04 03:50 AM by lazarus
and a regimented wife
I've no doubt you dream about the things you never do
But I wish someone had a talk to me like I wanna talk to you


One edit: Worst. Song. Ever.

3. heh
Loves me some ABBA.

Looking out for the place to go
Where they play the right music, getting in the swing
You come in to look for a King

I see you're a 1970s contemporary!

Let's see how far your memory goes:

Girl, when I'm alone with you
I get a feelin'.....

12. Wow!
You are GOOD!

Okay, I see I have to make this much harder (although I have a sneaking suspicion you'll get this in one shot):

After the turn of the century...

14. In the clear blue skies over Germany
I listened to Snoopy and the Red Baron about 800 times a day growing up. :evilgrin:

23. Day-umn!
You must be a major buff -- this is all stuff I heard constantly on Top 40 AM when I was about 10.

You realize now that, before I die or they shut down the Internet, my mission is to stump lazarus!

I'll sleep on it (and hope I don't accidentally get "Paper Roses" by Marie Osmond stuck in my brain).

28. And I loved her so...
She was too young
To fall in love...


Although, I must admit, if I had to choose just one Dr. Hook for the desert island, it would be...

First shot, right up front, man

We be onna front, smiiiilin', man
Awwwwwww, beautiful!

What do we do? What do we do?

...

Alone again, naturally!


As I recall, Gilbert O'Sullivan really regretted choosing his pseudonym. (Can't say I blame him!)

20. lol
Here's a whole verse of a song:

"I remember to this day the bright red Georgia clay,
How it stuck to the tires after the summer rain.
Will power made that old car go; a woman's mind told me that it's so.
Oh, how I wish we were back on the road again."

22. Sadist!
Me and you and a dog named Boo
Travelin' and livin' off the land
Me and you and a dog named Boo
How I love being a free man...


Lobo, Lobo, Lobo... And for some reason, we thought "A Simple Man" was totally cool, too. LOL

One sadistic turn deserves another, so here you go -- quite possibly the worst "hit" this side of "The Pina Colada Song":

My dad and I just had a fight
And he stormed out the door ...

26. 'Bout a kingdom on a mountain...
And the valley folk below
On the mountain was a treasure
Buried deep beneath a stone
And the valley people swore
They'd have it for their very own ...


"One Tin Soldier" - Coven on the soundtrack, and somebody else covered it as a single.

I saw "Billy Jack" about 800 times growing up. :D

Okay, last try before I collapse into bed... Hmmm... Ah! I know (although I know you'll get it right off):

Tear gas, machine guns, even a chopper! ...

27. Julie Brown
Edited on Fri Jan-30-04 07:34 AM by lazarus
Everybody Run, the Homecoming Queen's got a gun.

"Stop it, Debbie, you're embarrassing me!"

Hee hee.

One for you to sleep with:

The marchin' band came down along Main Street
The soldier-blues fell in behind
I looked across and there I saw Billy
Waiting to go and join the line



On edit: Did you know Tom Laughlin, the guy who played Billy Jack, is running for President again, as a Republican?

34. One of my favs...
...And with her head upon his shoulder
His young and lovely fiancee
From where I stood, I saw she was cryin'
And through her tears I heard her say

Billy don't be a hero (Paperlace is the version I remember. Of course the song and Paperlace were made famous again down under after Pricilla Queen of the Desert.)

32. With a whirlwind by her side
On a cold Nebraska night

Oh, they say "she died one winter"
When there came a killing frost
And the pony she named Wildfire
He busted down his stall
And in a blizzard he was lost...
