I'm sure you'll have more opportunities to get your paltry points over the next 9 weeks....

Okay, okay--I'm here already! I have attendance issues, so I will just forget about going back to see the end of December's LS and QoD's until I catch up some....

It's time for Tuesday Wordplay, which means that each of the 12 song titles below will have a word in common.

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


1. And where do we go from here?
Which is the way that's clear

Rock On, whoever the echoey guy is..

2. Well, we're having a ball just 'a bopping on the big dance floor
Well, there's a real square cat, he looks a 1974

Rock This Town, Stray Cats

3. Rise up! Gather round
Rock this place to the ground
Burn it up, let's go for broke
Watch the night go up in smoke

I thought this was Pyromania. It is a heavy metalish song. Def Leppard?

4. How about a pair of pink sidewinders
And a bright orange pair of pants?
You could really be a Beau Brummel baby
If you just give it half a chance.

It's Still Rock and Roll to Me, Billy Joel

5. Ever since our voyage of love began
your touch has thrilled me like the rush of the wind
and your arms have held me safe from a rolling sea
there's always been a quiet place to harbor you and me

Rock the Boat, Hues Corporation

6. When I was grown to be a man
And the Devil would call my name
I'd say "now who do . . .
Who do you think you're fooling?"

She Loves Me Like a Rock, Paul Simon

7. I was eighteen
Didn't have a care
Working for peanuts
Not a dime to spare

Like A Rock (dropped on my head repeatedly in those %^&*$#@^ commercials!) Bob Segar

8. Turn it down you say
Well all I got to say to you is time and time again I say
No! No, no, no, no, no, no

No. And, No.

9. And when they're really wailing
Michelle and Cass are sailin'.
Hey! they really nail me to the wall

Not Creeque Alley. Rocque Alley? :P Mamas and Papas?

10. If I had my way
I'd shuffle off to Buffalo
Sit by the lake
And watch the world go by

Familiar! AAAAGGGHHH!!!

11. The king called up his jet fighters
He said you better earn your pay


Rock the Casbah, The Clash

12. You can't depend on your teacher
You can't depend on your preacher
You can't depend on politicians
You can't depend on superstitions

Not familiar at all
