Yacht Rock, Part 2

We did Part 1 of yacht rock songs last time I hosted LS, so we all know what it means. Many of these were from those bonus answers.

1 point for title, 1 point for artist

1- I stopped an old man along the way
Hopin' to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say
"Hurry, boy, it's waiting there for you"

2- But the drumbeat strains of the night remain
In the rhythm of the newborn day
You know sometime you're bound to leave her
But for now, you're gonna stay

3- I'll be there if you want me to
No one else that could ever do
Got to get some peace in my mind

4- Well, I was born in the sign of water
And it's there that I feel my best
The albatross and the whales, they are my brothers

5- You can see it in my eyes
I can feel it in your touch
You don't have to say a thing
Just let me show how much
I love you, need you, oh babe

6- And there's really nothing we can't do
(You know we could, you know we could)
If we wanted to
(You know we could, you know we could)
We could exist on the stars, it was so easy

7- Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
But I know, it's nobody's fault

8- You know you can't fool me
I've been loving you too long
It started so easy
You want to carry on (carry on)

9- It's not so much the things you say to me
It's not the things you do
It's how I feel each time you're close to me
That keeps me close to you

10- Well, make a wish, baby
And I will make it come true
Make a list baby, of the things I'll do for you
Ain't no risk in lettin' my love rain down on you
So we can wash away the past so that we may start anew

11- Watching those old movies
Falling in love so desperately
Honey, I was your hero
And you were my leading lady

12- So if you look in my direction
And we don't see eye to eye
My heart needs protection
And so do I


Deep cuts bonus. The following three songs are less popular yacht rock songs. Two points for the title, two points for the artist.


13- So you're having trouble with your romance
Well, you better check it out before it goes, yeah
'Cause you might not be seeing things just the way you should
And you don't recognize what everybody knows

14- No more runnin' down the wrong road
Dancin' to a diff'rent drum
Can't you see what's goin' on
Deep inside your heart

15- Then these careless fingers
They get caught in her vise
'Til they're bleeding
On my coffee table


Krox Bonus: Name another song with artist that is considered yacht rock (something not from a previous game or this one).
(2 points)

Image bonus; Show me the anti-yacht (the worst looking sailing vessel you can find).
(5 points)

And so do I


Deep cuts bonus. The following three songs are less popular yacht rock songs. Two points for the title, two points for the artist.


13- So you're having trouble with your romance
Well, you better check it out before it goes, yeah
'Cause you might not be seeing things just the way you should
And you don't recognize what everybody knows

14- No more runnin' down the wrong road
Dancin' to a diff'rent drum
Can't you see what's goin' on
Deep inside your heart

15- Then these careless fingers
They get caught in her vise
'Til they're bleeding
On my coffee table


Krox Bonus: Name another song with artist that is considered yacht rock (something not from a previous game or this one).

I did not see the previous game, but I will go with Summer Breeze - Seals & Crofts

Lyrically Speaking - Day 2
2/10/2026


Yacht Rock, Part 2

We did Part 1 of yacht rock songs last time I hosted LS, so we all know what it means. Many of these were from those bonus answers.

1 point for title, 1 point for artist

1- I stopped an old man along the way
Hopin' to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say
"Hurry, boy, it's waiting there for you"

Africa -- Toto

2- But the drumbeat strains of the night remain
In the rhythm of the newborn day
You know sometime you're bound to leave her
But for now, you're gonna stay

Year of the Cat -- Al Stewart

3- I'll be there if you want me to
No one else that could ever do
Got to get some peace in my mind

4- Well, I was born in the sign of water
And it's there that I feel my best
The albatross and the whales, they are my brothers

Cool Change -- Little River Band

5- You can see it in my eyes
I can feel it in your touch
You don't have to say a thing
Just let me show how much
I love you, need you, oh babe

I wanna kiss you all over -- Exile

6- And there's really nothing we can't do
(You know we could, you know we could)
If we wanted to
(You know we could, you know we could)
We could exist on the stars, it was so easy

Miracles -- Jefferson Starship

7- Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
But I know, it's nobody's fault

Margaritaville -- Jimmy Buffett

8- You know you can't fool me
I've been loving you too long
It started so easy
You want to carry on (carry on)

Lost in Love -- Air Supply

9- It's not so much the things you say to me
It's not the things you do
It's how I feel each time you're close to me
That keeps me close to you

You are the Woman -- Firefall

10- Well, make a wish, baby
And I will make it come true
Make a list baby, of the things I'll do for you
Ain't no risk in lettin' my love rain down on you
So we can wash away the past so that we may start anew

You're the Biggest Part of Me -- Ambrosia

11- Watching those old movies
Falling in love so desperately
Honey, I was your hero
And you were my leading lady

Key Largo -- Bertie Higgins

12- So if you look in my direction
And we don't see eye to eye
My heart needs protection
And so do I

Lotta Love -- Nicolette Larsen


Deep cuts bonus. The following three songs are less popular yacht rock songs. Two points for the title, two points for the artist.


13- So you're having trouble with your romance
Well, you better check it out before it goes, yeah
'Cause you might not be seeing things just the way you should
And you don't recognize what everybody knows

Whatcha Gonna Do -- Pablo Cruise

14- No more runnin' down the wrong road
Dancin' to a diff'rent drum
Can't you see what's goin' on
Deep inside your heart

15- Then these careless fingers
They get caught in her vise
'Til they're bleeding
On my coffee table

Wow, that is a deep cut.

Laura -- Billy Joel. from The Nylon Curtain. A song so unloved that it didn't even make the "selections" piano book that I memorized at one time.

Krox Bonus: Name another song with artist that is considered yacht rock (something not from a previous game or this one).
(2 points)

Eesh. I don't remember previous games, so this may be a violation, but I'll say Danny's Song -- Kenny Loggins

Image bonus; Show me the anti-yacht (the worst looking sailing vessel you can find).
