Welcome to Free For All Friday! All of today's songs were pulled from the wide variety of Music Choice channels I have on January 30th. This game will be open until Monday morning (Which may or may not be a holiday for you, but the LS staff laughs at such "Federal" holidays almost as much as it scoffs at Hallmark® holidays)....

1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist....



1. You've been hiding - never letting it show
Always trying to keep it under control
You got it down and you're well
On your way to the top
But there's something that you forgot

2. Tommy got his six string in hock
Now he's holding in what he used
To make it talk - so tough, it's tough

3. I want to walk in the open wind
I want to talk like lovers do
I want to dive into your ocean

4. You've given me a true love
And every day I thank you love
For a feeling that's so new
So inviting, so exciting

5. I used to love to make you cry
It made me feel like a man inside
But if I'd been a man in reality
You'd still be here, babe, lovin' me

6. Well my mom and pop told me, "Son you gotta make some money"
If you want to use the car to go ridin' next Sunday

7. My thoughts are with you
Holding hands with your heart to see you
Only blue talk and love,
Remember - how we knew love was here to stay

8. In the night, in my dreams
I'm in love with you
'Cause you talk to me, like lovers do
I feel joy, I feel pain, 'cause it's still the same
when the night is gone I'll be alone

9. And my heart hit a problem, in the early hours,
So I stopped it dead for a beat or two.
But I cut some cord, and I shouldn't have done it,
And it won't forgive me after all these years

10. Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you don't let show

11. He was a boy
She was a girl
Can I make it anymore obvious?

12. Every time I touch you honey you get hot
I want to make love you never stop
Come up for air you push me to the floor
What's been going on in that head of yours

13. What'll you do when you get lonely
And nobody's waitin by your side
You've been runnin and hidin much too long
You know it's just your foolish pride

14. When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry

15. Instinctively you give to me
The love that I need
I cherish the moments with you

16. You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way ?
I am Human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

17. From the bottom of tha Duval,
Cakalacky to New York
and everybody showin me love
that's one to you all.

18. The job is done and I go out
Another boring day
I leave it all behind me now
So many worlds away

19. Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a mistake

20. I, I gave you my love in vain
My body never knew such pleasure
My heart never knew such pain

What About Love? Heart

2. Tommy got his six string in hock

To make it talk - so tough, it's tough

Livin' On a Prayer, Bon Jovi

3. I want to walk in the open wind

4. You've given me a true love
And every day I thank you love
For a feeling that's so new
So inviting, so exciting

6. Well my mom and pop told me, "Son you gotta make some money"
If you want to use the car to go ridin' next Sunday


Summertime Blues, don't know the guy's name... Didn't The Who do a version..?

7. My thoughts are with you
Holding hands with your heart to see you
Only blue talk and love,
Remember - how we knew love was here to stay

September, Earth, Wind, and Fire. They were on my husband's flight from Amsterdam to Philly, and the flight crew just loved them!

8. In the night, in my dreams
I'm in love with you
'Cause you talk to me, like lovers do
I feel joy, I feel pain, 'cause it's still the same
when the night is gone I'll be alone

Nopers

9. And my heart hit a problem, in the early hours,
So I stopped it dead for a beat or two.
But I cut some cord, and I shouldn't have done it,
And it won't forgive me after all these years

Oh, yick. That Black Horse and the Cherry Tree song, KT Tunstall. I like Suddenly I See much better....

10. Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you don't let show

Lean On Me. Sadly, I can't even remember who did the reggae remake! PUHthetic...

11. He was a boy
She was a girl
Can I make it anymore obvious?

Sk8ter Boi, Avril Lavigne

13. What'll you do when you get lonely
And nobody's waitin by your side
You've been runnin and hidin much too long
You know it's just your foolish pride

14. When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry

Creep, Radiohead

15. Instinctively you give to me
The love that I need
I cherish the moments with you

Familiar

16. You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way ?
I am Human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

How Soon is Now? The Smiths

17. From the bottom of tha Duval,
Cakalacky to New York

Welcome to Free For All Friday! All of today's songs were pulled from the wide variety of Music Choice channels I have on January 30th. This game will be open until Monday morning (Which may or may not be a holiday for you, but the LS staff laughs at such "Federal" holidays almost as much as it scoffs at Hallmark® holidays)....

I'm ba-aaack! Did you miss me? I got my pencil, give me something to write on.
Spoiler
1. You've been hiding - never letting it show
Always trying to keep it under control
You got it down and you're well
On your way to the top
But there's something that you forgot

What About Love - Heart

2. Tommy got his six string in hock
Now he's holding in what he used
To make it talk - so tough, it's tough

Livin' on a Prayer - Bon Jovi

I like this weekend so far!


3. I want to walk in the open wind
I want to talk like lovers do
I want to dive into your ocean

Here Comes the Rain Again - Eurythmics


4. You've given me a true love
And every day I thank you love
For a feeling that's so new
So inviting, so exciting

I Hear a Symphony - The Supremes

5. I used to love to make you cry
It made me feel like a man inside
But if I'd been a man in reality
You'd still be here, babe, lovin' me

Working My Way Back to You - Four Seasons

6. Well my mom and pop told me, "Son you gotta make some money"
If you want to use the car to go ridin' next Sunday

Summertime Blues - Joan Jett (yeah, yeah, but she does my second favourite version)

Why is it that whenever I see Brian Setzer I automatically think of Eddie Cochran?


7. My thoughts are with you
Holding hands with your heart to see you
Only blue talk and love,
Remember - how we knew love was here to stay

8. In the night, in my dreams
I'm in love with you
'Cause you talk to me, like lovers do
I feel joy, I feel pain, 'cause it's still the same
when the night is gone I'll be alone

9. And my heart hit a problem, in the early hours,
So I stopped it dead for a beat or two.
But I cut some cord, and I shouldn't have done it,
And it won't forgive me after all these years

Black Horse and the Cherry Tree - KT Tunstall


10. Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you don't let show

Lean on Me - The Nylons


Ha, now you see why I held off on Blue Cheer for #6 (my favourite version). I thought both of them might push you over the edge.


11. He was a boy
She was a girl
Can I make it anymore obvious?

Sk8er Boi - Avril Lavigne

A constant at the bowling alley 5 or 6 years ago. Won't it ever go away????


12. Every time I touch you honey you get hot
I want to make love you never stop
Come up for air you push me to the floor
What's been going on in that head of yours

Unskinny Bop - Poison


13. What'll you do when you get lonely
And nobody's waitin by your side
You've been runnin and hidin much too long
You know it's just your foolish pride

Layla - Derek and the Dominos

14. When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry

15. Instinctively you give to me
The love that I need
I cherish the moments with you

16. You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way ?
I am Human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

17. From the bottom of tha Duval,
Cakalacky to New York
and everybody showin me love
that's one to you all.

Rubberband Man - T.I.

18. The job is done and I go out
Another boring day
I leave it all behind me now
So many worlds away

19. Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a mistake

The eBay Song that Was #3 on the Vh1 90's Countdown - Backstreet Boys


20. I, I gave you my love in vain
My body never knew such pleasure
My heart never knew such pain

Woking My Way Back To You - Four Seasons or The Spinners (The latter version may be my favorite cover version of any song ever. The Spinners version is a great feel-good song...)

If you want to use the car to go ridin' next Sunday

So I stopped it dead for a beat or two.
But I cut some cord, and I shouldn't have done it,

Black Horse & a Cherry Tree - K.T. Tunstall (I used to hate this song, but have grown to like hearing it...)

10. Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you don't let show
Lean on Me - Bill Withers (Club Nouveau's version was wonderful, and along with "Somewhere Out There" and Bruce Willis' version of "Respect Yourself", it always brings to mind indoor recess in the winter of 1987 and listening to the radio we had in our 6th grade class....)

11. He was a boy
She was a girl
Can I make it anymore obvious?
Sk8tr Boi - Avril Lavigne (Do they spell things differently in Canada or wha.... uh, nevermind. They actually do....)

Layla - Derek & the Dominoes (The Clapton unplugged version is the only concert version of ANY song that I like better than the original. That includes such live classics as "Candle in the Wind" and "I Want You To Want Me"....)

14. When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
Creep - Radiohead

15. Instinctively you give to me

I cherish the moments with you
Upside Down - Diana Ross (It didn't occur to me until just now that I had included a Diana Ross song in the same game as a song she did with the Supremes)

I go about things the wrong way ?
I am Human and I need to be loved

Another boring day
I leave it all behind me now
So many worlds away
The Zoo - Scorpions

19. Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
I Want It That Way - Backstreet Boys (I gave fanny a point for calling this the eBay song since Weird Al gets lots of airplay on the Wal~Mart Radio, and his parody of this song, "eBay" is one of the well-worn tracks. Besides, I feel sorry for her since she missed Thursday's game. One other sidenote... this song was supposed to be #19 in next week's game, but I was looking at the wrong list when I was compiling the lyrics.... so this week's #19 will appear as next week's #19...)

20. I, I gave you my love in vain
My body never knew such pleasure
My heart never knew such pain
All Cried Out - Lisa Lisa & the Cult Jam with Full Force (That numbered band that Nelly mentioned also counted)
