1- Yesterday, I saw you standing there
Your head was down, your eyes were red
No comb had touched your hair
I said "Get up, and let me see you smile
We'll take a walk together
Walk the road a while, 'cause"
HOLD MY HAND - HOOTIE AND THE BLOWFISH - Mar 21, 1995 - Vandal's second son is born

2- Love doesn't come in a minute
Sometimes it doesn't come at all
I only know that when I'm in it
SILLY LOVE SONGE - PAUL MCCARTNEY AND WINGS - Jul 4, 1976 - Vandal celebrates the US Bicentennial

3- I don't mind not knowing
What I'm heading for
You can take me to the skies

4- You always said the cards would never do you wrong
The trick, you said, was never play the game too long
A gambler's share, the only risk that you would take
The only loss you could forsake
The only bluff you couldn't fake
STILL THE SAME - BOB SEGER - May 26, 1978 - Vandal graduates from high school

5- The smell of your skin lingers on me now
You're probably on your flight back to your hometown
I need some shelter of my own protection, baby
Be with myself and center
Clarity, peace, serenity

6- I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes 'til I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change
BREAKAWAY - KELLY CLARKSON - Oct 27, 2004 - Red Sox win the World Series after 86 years, Vandal celebrates

7- You know when that shark bites with his teeth, babe
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves, though, wears old Macheath, babe
So there's never, never a trace of red

8- The Eastern world, it is explodin'
Violence flarin', bullets loadin'
You're old enough to kill but not for votin'
You don't believe in war, but what's that gun you're totin'?
And even the Jordan river has bodies floatin'
EVE OF DESTRUCTION - BARRY MCGUIRE Sep 6, 1965 - Vandal's first day of kindergarten

9- When I saw you standing there
About fell off my chair
And when you moved your mouth to speak
I felt the blood go to my feet

10- 'Cause you know just what to say
And you know just what to do
And I want to tell you so much
I love you
HELLO - LIONEL RITCHIE - May 19, 1984 - Vandal gets his first real job and moves to Canada

11- Yo no soy marinero
Yo no soy marinero, soy capitán
Soy capitán, soy capitán

12- Saying "I love you"
Is not the words I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you
Not to say but if you only knew
How easy, it would be to show me how you feel

13- But there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew
All the things you'd say
They were never true, never true
And the games you'd play
You would always win, always win

Krox Bonus: Name a song with artist that reminds you of a special day in your life.

Respect Yourself - Bruce Willis (Not so much a day, but an era when I was really into what was big on the Top 40 station at the time. I'd gotten a tape recorder for Christmas in 1986, and had a ball recording songs off the radio. We also had the stereo our 5th grade class raised enough money to buy moved to our 6th grade classroom, and listened to it during inside recess that winter. I was reminded of this the other day when I listened to the Top 40 countdown on Sirius, which was the Top 40 songs from Valentines Day week in 1987... and I remembered almost every song, even the ones near the bottom. Of all the songs I associate with that era, I chose Bruce because it tickles me he had a Top 5 hit before he went on to become a big action movie hero...)

Lyrically Speaking - Day 10
2/20/2026

Final Day!!

Lyrically Speaking salutes Timeline! But not just any timeline, it's a Vandal Timeline. Each set of lyrics represent a song that was a top ten (or even number one) Billboard hit on a milestone day in my life.

The idea is to determine the song and artist as usual, then match the song up with the correct date/milestone from the list below.

Sample answer (there is no 14):

14- Bad Habits - Ed Sheeran
Mar 31, 2022 - Vandal retires from civil service

Scoring: 1 point for title, 1 point for artist, 2 points for each song matched up to the correct milestone date. Good luck!

The only bluff you couldn't fake

Still the Same -- Bob Seger May 26, 1978 - Vandal graduates from high school

Fancy gloves, though, wears old Macheath, babe

8- The Eastern world, it is explodin'

And even the Jordan river has bodies floatin'

You would always win, always win

Thanks for playing. It has been my pleasure being your host.

Thank you! I'm glad you were able to put this together.

2525 Fortnight 5 arrives soon.

1- Yesterday, I saw you standing there
Your head was down, your eyes were red
No comb had touched your hair
I said "Get up, and let me see you smile
We'll take a walk together
Walk the road a while, 'cause"

2- Love doesn't come in a minute
Sometimes it doesn't come at all
I only know that when I'm in it
SILLY LOVE SONGS
Oct 27, 2004 - Red Sox win the World Series after 86 years, Vandal celebrates

3- I don't mind not knowing
What I'm heading for
You can take me to the skies

4- You always said the cards would never do you wrong
The trick, you said, was never play the game too long
A gambler's share, the only risk that you would take
The only loss you could forsake
The only bluff you couldn't fake

5- The smell of your skin lingers on me now
You're probably on your flight back to your hometown
I need some shelter of my own protection, baby
Be with myself and center
Clarity, peace, serenity

6- I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes 'til I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change

7- You know when that shark bites with his teeth, babe
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves, though, wears old Macheath, babe
So there's never, never a trace of red

And even the Jordan river has bodies floatin'

9- When I saw you standing there
About fell off my chair
And when you moved your mouth to speak
I felt the blood go to my feet
