LS Day 17 12/3/08 ANSWERS AND POINTS
Posted: Sun Dec 28, 2008 11:03 am
My sincere apologies for the lateness of this block of answers and points. The holidays just made life busy.
So, this game was born when I was driving home from work and heard LA WOMAN by the Doors right after FIRE WOMAN by the Cult on the radio. I loved that pairing, but I wanted to throw another wrinkle in by using a song with FIRE in it, and some other song by the Cult....but finding another POPULAR song by that group proved problematic until I remembered RISE. I'm not a huge Cult fan, but those two songs are pretty damn good. So without further ado, the answers:
1. They knew all the right people
They took all the right pills
They threw outrageous parties
They paid heavenly bills
LIFE IN THE FAST LANE - EAGLES
2. Baby I got your number
And I know that you got mine
But you know that I called you
I called too many times
You can call me baby
You can call me anytime
GIVE ME ONE REASON - TRACY CHAPMAN (FAST CAR)
3. We are young
Heartache to heartache we stand
No promises, no demands
LOVE IS A BATTLEFIELD - PAT BENATAR
4. The real thing don't do the trick, no
You better think up something quick
You're gonna burn burn burn burn burn it to the wick
BARRACUDA - HEART (MAGIC MAN)
5. Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery
Ten years burnin' down the road
No where to run, ain't got nowhere to go
BORN IN THE USA - BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN (COVER ME)
6. Ooh, ooh, you might not ever get rich
But let me tell ya, it's better than diggin' a ditch
There ain't no tellin' who you might meet
A movie star or maybe even a Indian Chief
CAR WASH - ROSE ROYCE
7. (SONG TITLE) don't bother to choose
If it's jug-band music or rhythm and blues
Just go and listen, it'll start with a smile
It won't wipe off your face no matter how hard you try
DO YOU BELIEVE IN MAGIC? - LOVIN' SPOONFUL
8. Einstein, James Dean
Brooklyn's got a winning team
Davy Crockett, Peter Pan
Elvis Presley, Disneyland
WE DIDN'T START THE FIRE - BILLY JOEL
9. You stand in the front, just a-shakin' your ass
I'll take you backstage, you can drink from my glass
I talk about somethin' you can sure understand
'Cause a month on the road, an' I'll be eatin' from your hand
SWEET EMOTION - AEROSMITH (Melly was lucky that I didn't use Aerosmith as the link for this song, but her cover of Mighty Mighty Bosstones was just fine here)
10. I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife
It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight
ROCKET MAN - ELTON JOHN
11. Cops in cars, the topless bars
Never saw a woman so alone
So alone, so alone, so alone
Motel money murder madness
Let's change the mood from glad to sadness
Mr. Mojo risin'
L.A. WOMAN - THE DOORS
12. You are the tear, I have no fear
You are so strange, I feel the same
Sorcerous mind, we ride again
We are not chained to the wheel, to the wheel
RISE - THE CULT (FIRE WOMAN)
13. Well, it may come as a surprise
Loneliness has opened my eyes
I tried every love I could find
Still, I can't get you out of my mind
NO ONE IN THE WORLD - ANITA BAKER (SWEET LOVE)
14. Well, we're big rock singers, we got golden fingers
And we're loved everywhere we go
We sing about beauty and we sing about truth
At ten thousand dollars a show
We take all kind of pills to give us all kind of thrills
But the thrill we've never known
COVER OF THE ROLLING STONE - DR. HOOK
15. Color me your color, baby
Color me your car
Color me you color, darling
I know who you are
CALL ME - BLONDIE
