1. It's been a long time since the book of love,
I can't count the tears of a life with no love.
Carry me back, carry me back,
Carry me back, baby, where I come from
Rock & Roll - Led Zeppelin

2. Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Unchained Melody - Rightious Brothers

3. There's something in my eyes, you know it happens every time --
I think about a love that I thought would save me.
Operator - Jim Croce

4. I've got no far horizons
I don't wish upon a star
They don't think that I listen
Oh but I know who they are
Take Me Home - Phil Collins

5. While she's deceiving me
It cuts my security has
She got control of me
I turn to her and say
Sunglasses at Night - Corey Hart

6. Well I'm no angel, now, I'll admit
I made a few bad moves I should regret
I hurt you once or so you said
Just one more chance is all you get
Walk on Water - Eddie Money

7. We can't go on
Just running away
If we stay any longer
We will surely never get away
Never - Heart

8. There's a quiet storm
And it never felt like this before
There's a quiet storm
That is you
There's a quiet storm
And it never felt this hot before
Sweetest Taboo - Sade (I figured I couldn't make it the entire run without accidentally repeating a song. I used this one in the toys/games themed game a couple weeks ago, and didn't realize it until last night. Oh well, nobody's perfect....)

9. I’ll tell you one thing
If you would leave it would be a crying shame
In every breath and every word I hear your name calling me out
Smooth - Santana

10. Hey beautiful girl so lovely tonight
Show me the way show me the light
Music playing people swaying
Next thing I knew we started to groove
Tonight - Kool & the Gang

11. Now nothin' can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me comin' back for more
Heaven - Bryan Adams

12. My mother told me
Yes she told me
I’d meet girls like you
She also told me stay away
She’ll fall in love with you
Surrender - Cheap Trick (I had a hell of a time finding the lyrics for this one online, and must have wound up finding a bad set. That last line is wrong, but enough people knew what it was, so no harm done....)


The theme was songs whose titles could be put together to form another song, and the artist who did the new song.

1-11-2 - Rock & Roll Heaven by the Rightious Brothers

9-3-8 - Smooth Operator by Sade

4-10-6 - Take Me Home Tonight by Eddie Money

7-12-5 - Never Surrender by Corey Hart


More people were able to get the theme than I thought!

I don't suppose you expected ME to get the theme! Especially when a song looked familiar, and it was because it had been used in a game I actually played!

Missed it then, too.

But at least I can spell "Righteous".... :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P
