Back on January 8, cousin Mike commented on my last go at the Song Lyrics Game.
“I have no idea on the songs at all. But I will say that #2 sounds familiar and I have the feeling that when you reveal it - I will know the song.”
A few hints:
I thought #2 would be the most familiar to you, it’s from 1961. I might have described it as a pop ballad; Wikipedia lists it as a country crossover song. So, not obviously country, but not a pure rock and roll oldie either.
#1 and #3 can both be described as classic rock.
#1 is from 1983, and you’d likely recognize it, especially if you heard the refrain. Big hint: it’s gotten a lot of radio time on Fridays to usher in the weekend.
#3 is from 1974, and it’s the title track from the album (it’s not only my favorite song from the album, but I think one of that band’s best efforts – clever lyrics throughout). It’s definitely a blues-based rock song, and if I had a time machine to take you back to the mid 1970’s you might remember having heard it “recently”. Sadly, it hasn’t gotten much airplay for some years now.
Mike, I could move this quiz over to Facebook and prolong the suspense…or just reveal the answer in a few days. It’s your call.
