Lyrically Speaking - 1/18/17

Welcome aboard Flight 13 bound for Bumfuck, Egypt. This is your Wacky Wednesday captain speaking. Since today is the 16th anniversary of LB's Millionaire taping, it's also the day in between 16th anniversary of LB's first and last trips in an airplane. Too bad for him... I can't think of a better way to travel than flying the friendly skies. So that's the theme of today's LSWE game, airplanes, air travel, and all of the good things that go along with it! Oh, excuse me, stewardess! I think I need a little more.... um.... inflation! 8)

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


1. And I`m going with some hesitation
You know that I can surely see
That I don`t want to get caught up in any of that
Funky shit going down in the city

2. I've been a brother to sorrow
I've been surrounded by gloom
Cause this hotel's got hot & cold runnin'
Heartache in every room

3. There's nowhere in the world
That I would rather be
Than with you, my love
And there's nothing in the world
That I would rather see T
han your smile, my love

4. I love my sunny day
Dream of far away
Dreaming on my pillow
In the morning

5. So I was the one
With all the glory
While you were the
One with all the strain

6. Life is so strange
When you don`t know
How can you tell
Where you`re going to

7. You`ll never know
What you can do
Until you get it up
As high as you can go

8. All around the world, statues crumble for me
Who knows how long I've loved you

9. She's forty-one and her daddy still calls her baby
All the folks round Brownsville say she's crazy
Cause she walks downtown with her suitcase in her hand
Looking for a mysterious dark haired man

10. Staring at the bottom of your glass
Hoping one day you'll make a dream last
But dreams come slow and they go so fast

11. Well, I know that you're in love with him
Cause I saw you dancing in the gym

12. Can't you see that I am not afraid
What was that promise that you made
Why won't you tell me what she said
What was that promise that you made

Ruby Red Dress (Leave Me Alone) - Helen Reddy. Certain on the artist, not sure if it's the right song (pretty sure it's either this or Angie Baby), don't see how either song fits the theme.

Hoping one day you'll make a dream last
But dreams come slow and they go so fast

11. Well, I know that you're in love with him

I was going to use "Jet" by Paul McCartney & Wings since it seemed an obvious omission (plus it works in two ways), but I thought you might like this one better: "Take Off" - Bob & Doug McKenzie (with Geddy Lee)

By the way, the board seems to be doing something weird. It looks normal until I log in and then the formatting goes to heck. I used by IE and Edge with the same result. Is everyone having the same issue or is it just me?

Since today is the 16th anniversary of LB's Millionaire taping, it's also the day in between 16th anniversary of LB's first and last trips in an airplane. Too bad for him... I can't think of a better way to travel than flying the friendly skies. So that's the theme of today's LSWE game, airplanes, air travel, and all of the good things that go along with it! Oh, excuse me, stewardess! I think I need a little more.... um.... inflation! 8)

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


1. And I`m going with some hesitation
You know that I can surely see
That I don`t want to get caught up in any of that
Funky shit going down in the city

Jet Airliner - Steve Miller Band


2. I've been a brother to sorrow
I've been surrounded by gloom
Cause this hotel's got hot & cold runnin'
Heartache in every room

Nope


3. There's nowhere in the world
That I would rather be
Than with you, my love
And there's nothing in the world
That I would rather see
Than your smile, my love

Nope


4. I love my sunny day
Dream of far away
Dreaming on my pillow
In the morning

Magic - Pilot


5. So I was the one
With all the glory
While you were the
One with all the strain

Wind Beneath My Wings - Bette Midler


6. Life is so strange
When you don`t know
How can you tell
Where you`re going to

Destination Unknown - Missing Persons (Yay!)


7. You`ll never know
What you can do
Until you get it up
As high as you can go

Danger Zone - Kenny Loggins


8. All around the world, statues crumble for me
Who knows how long I've loved you

Fly - Sugar Ray


9. She's forty-one and her daddy still calls her baby
All the folks round Brownsville say she's crazy
Cause she walks downtown with her suitcase in her hand
Looking for a mysterious dark haired man

Delta Dawn - Helen Reddy


10. Staring at the bottom of your glass
Hoping one day you'll make a dream last
But dreams come slow and they go so fast

Nope


11. Well, I know that you're in love with him
Cause I saw you dancing in the gym

American Pie - Don McLean


12. Can't you see that I am not afraid
What was that promise that you made
Why won't you tell me what she said
What was that promise that you made

Touch Me - Doors


Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with artist that fits the air travel theme of today's game.

Airport Song - Guster



Image Bonus: Show me an image that will pass this theme with flying colors...

Kudos to those who thought to include some form of a flying squirrel as your Image Bonus! But it's hard to beat an LGBT plane, especially when it's BiT who posts it... so he gets the 5 point IBB!

I debated using it for that reason -- I googled albuquerque balloon festival squirrel -- and that's what I got. It looks more like a chipmunk to me, but what the heck -- it got me three points.
