15.0. "Name That Tune -Greater than 10 Years Old" by AUNTB::DILLON (Southern Belle) Tue Mar 10 1992 03:38

    Mark "Sheepikins" correctly answered the clues to the last song which
    were:
    
    "..darlin won't you ease my worried mind"
    "..you know it's just your foolish pride"
    yes, it was released in the U.K. and
    "you got me on my knees, you got me beggin please..."
    
    as:
    
    Layla, by Derick and the Dominoes...
    
    He also said that since he's on a course this week someone else can put
    in the clue for the next song.
    
    Thanks for your calls, we have a winner!!!

    I believe >M< got it (see .442, title).  Is that really 10 years old?
    (seems like only last week. . .)
    
    Steve
15.7they're fighting with ... forks?HOCUS::FERGUSONYou folks quit having opinions!Sat May 28 1994 02:458
    >M< has it.  And yes, that was 10 years ago - back when so few people
    had cable that people used to have MTV parties.
    
    I remember the video because I was at one - I was talking to someone
    and out of the corner of my eye I thought I was watching the "Beat it"
    video until the rubber chicken appeared...

    	OK, here it is:  (Sorry for the delay!!!!)
    
    
    	"We go dancing nightly in the attic
    	 While the moon is rising in the sky.
    	 If I'm too rough, tell me,
    	 I'm so scared your little head will come off in my hands."
15.9Any ideas???? need hints on WHO??TFH::ANDERSONMOK, I'm goin' for it!!Wed Jun 15 1994 20:228
    
    Some more of the song:
    
    
    	I got you in the dimestore,
    	No other little girl could ever hold you
    	Any tighter, any tighter than me, baby.
    
15.10Barbie's dream date with Ken?AKOCOA::BBARRYLaudabamusne RexWed Jun 15 1994 21:246
    Is it "Doin' the 'twist' with Ken" ??  :-)
    
    	Er, ah, I guess another hint would help?
    
    
    /Bob
15.11Does this help?TFH::ANDERSONMOK, I'm goin' for it!!Wed Jun 15 1994 22:2211
    
    	OK, here's some kind a hint.  
    
    	The "artist" is the son of a Phoenix minister and had his name
    legally changed when he took the reigns of a local band known as  
    The Earwigs (and others as well)..
    
    	He has a reputation for theatrics including a live boa constrictor!

15.15School's out, kidz. . .HARDY::MALLETTThu Jun 16 1994 19:1611
    Phoenix gave it away for me.  This artist shocked a lot of pre-baby
    boomers with his outrageous makeup and stage shows in the '70s. 
    Perhaps more shocking to his fans was the disclosure that during his
    free time he enjoyed playing golf at the local country club.  His real
    name is Vince Furnier, but he's better known to fans as
    
    Alice Cooper.
    
    Unfortunately, I'm at a loss to name the tune. . .
    
    Steve
15.16TFH::ANDERSONMOK, I'm goin' for it!!Thu Jun 16 1994 19:3711
    
    	YES!!!! 1/2 way there!!!  
    
    	Here's more lyrics!!!
    
    
    	....... (title of song...ooops)!!!!
    	Reckless like a gambler, million dollar maybe
    	Foaming like a dog that's been infected by the rabies.
    
    
15.17HARDY::MALLETTThu Jun 16 1994 20:036
    Hmmm.  I seem to recall a title (think it was an album title, too) of
    "Million Dollar Babies";  it'd fit the previously entered lyric line,
    but I'm just guessing here because I'm really not familiar with the
    tune.
    
    Steve
15.18Good job!!TFH::ANDERSONMOK, I'm goin' for it!!Thu Jun 16 1994 20:1510
    
    	YOU ARE CORRECT!!!!!  
    
    	WHEW!!!!  It's all yours now Steve....
    
    	Go for it!!!!
    
    	HUGS
    
    	>M<
15.19HARDY::MALLETTThu Jun 16 1994 20:4815
    Thanks, >M<;  glad you posted that when you did as I was about to
    second guess myself - for some reason I got to thinking that the title
    was "Billion Dollar Babies".
         ^                         
    Anyway, given the advent of the "Tunes Older Than 20 Years" topic, I'm
    not sure what the parameters for this topic should be.  For now I'll
    assume that it's "between 10 and 20 years old."
    
    Ok.  This lyric is from this band's "signature" (i.e. most famous)
    song:
    
    "Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man,
     Though my mind could think I still was a mad man."
    
    Steve
15.20I second the second (guess)...TFH::ANDERSONMOK, I'm goin' for it!!Thu Jun 16 1994 23:565
    
    	ooopppss.... yes it IS "B"illion Dollar Babies.... but I knew you
    	knew it...hehehe
    
    	>M<
15.21HARDY::MALLETTFri Jun 17 1994 21:2516
    Cloo too 4 yoo:
    
    "Once I rose above the noise and confusion,
     Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion.
     I was soaring ever higher, 
     but I flew too high.
    
     Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man,
     Though my mind could think I still was a mad man."
    
    Hints: this rock band was considered avant-garde in its use of violin
    and classical forms and was, early on, blessed with the talents of the
    incomparable Steve Morse.  The song itself is a mainstay of "classic
    rock" radio playlists.

15.27Techno-weenie makes good. . .HARDY::MALLETTTue Jun 21 1994 02:249
    Thanks, Bob.  Ok.  When this band's first album (contining the tune
    below) was released, the leader wasn't real sure it was going to do
    much.  So, rather than quit his day job at Polaroid, he took a leave of
    absence.  It turned out to be a real long leave. . .

    name/title)
15.29HARDY::MALLETTTue Jun 21 1994 07:2616
    Right on both counts with one minor lyric adjustment
    
    "We were just another band out of Boston,
     On the road and trying to make ends meet.
     Playin all the bars, sleeping in our cars,
     We would practice right on out in the street.
    
     No, we didn't have much money.
     We barely made enough to survive.
     But when we got up on stage and got ready to play,
     People came alive."
    
    Take it away, Joyce.

    of a show business family. Her father was Max Reddy, a "blue" comedian
    and her mum was in the business too. Her sister is Toni Lamond and her

in Atlanta.  The results:

Charlie: Who'll stop the rain
Rue: Who'll stop the rain
Kim: I don't know somthing with rain in the title

I don't care if I'm right it's driving me crazy trying to remember the words to

Anyone who knows the words to either, would you please enter them here.  I am

15.133umm...two different songsSMURF::WALLACELife's a beach, then you dive!Fri Apr 07 1995 19:1210
    They are two songs.  Instructions for proof...
    
    1. Get in vehicle.
    2. Drive to local (remote site optional) record store
    3. Find "C" section (not to be confused with the procedure)
    4. Look at "Best of Creedence Clearwater Rivival" CD
    5. Notice both songs.
    6. Accept as fact, or buy CD, contribute to retirement fund of CCR
       band, write transcript, and read words for yourself.
    
15.134DECLNE::SHEPARDIt's paddlin' timeFri Apr 07 1995 20:5311

Da ya know what it is?

	Just one thing. Holly, it's not your song. U can't appropriate it to
yourself even if it reminds U something important in your life. U know, one
music U appriciate allways remind U something, I mean the best thing you've done
listening to it or just after having listened to it.

15.158re .156 "our" song....LJSRV1::LAMBRECHTThe Spirit of BavariaFri Apr 21 1995 01:4625
Hello BenJ,

   I agree in one thing:   
          - music cannot be property.

   Music is made BY free spirits, free souls FOR free spirits,
   free souls. You find yourself reflected in the music you hear.
   The songwriter's intention was.... to associate the same feelings
   in the audience as he had when writing and compositioning.
   
   But also.....

   During this associative process suddenly there is a recognition,
   a realization of equality, the point where someone really feels
   the same. Then the song suddenly pulls a string. A whole flood
   of association is going on and the intense becomes immense.
   THEN comes the point where this person makes the song part of
   his/her life. He/she doesn't mean to put limits or chains to
   the music, but moreover expresses his/her being touched by it.

   That's when people call songs "their" songs.

Yours musically,
Martina

What is it please?

" ... Baby, when I get down, I turn to U
And U make sense of what I do
I know, it isn't hard to say
But baby, just when this world seems mean and cold
Our love comes shining red and gold
And all the rest is by the way... "

				Yours tenderly,		BenJ.
15.160Do U need help to find it?ANNECY::BALAS_BSomeone, somewhere, somehow, and me...Mon Apr 24 1995 14:0513
	Here's another clue:
It's on the same album with this song:

"These mistcovered mountains
Are a home now for me
But my home is the lowland
And allways will be
Some day U'll return to
Your valleys and your farms
But U'll no longer burn to
Be _ _ _..."

				Making it easy,		BenJ.

15.163Right, Jackie, but what was the name of the first extract (.159)?ANNECY::BALAS_BSomeone, somewhere, somehow, and me...Mon Apr 24 1995 19:383

	.159 => the name was "why worry"

Why worry, there should be laughter after pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have allways been the same
So why worry now?


Now this, that everybody know:

" ...Every single day

     Clue :


    This song was out in about 1979 ,the band had 3 members (ooohh errr)
    and were part of the Punk/New wave type scene . I think it went to No1 
    in the UK... or top 10 at least.....

15.170Nice with bread? U mean butter?ANNECY::BALAS_BSomeone, somewhere, somehow, and me...Tue Apr 25 1995 21:534
I was born in 71, U talk to me about something out in 79. I was too young to
listen to this kind of music. Maybe someone else (I didn't say "older"...) will
be able to reply.

	To give the answer to .171, everybody forgot there was something to
find, the song is "heroe" by David Bowie...
	If U don't know it, listen to it, I love it...

						Super D.J,	BenJ.	;)
15.176Some facts!!!MXOC00::CSILVAMon May 08 1995 04:1628
    
    
    Yes, "Heroes" was composed by David Bowie and Robert Fripp.
    
    Fripp it's the founder of King Crimson, the supposed first progressive
    rock band. Robert also plays the guitar along with Bowie's guitarrist
    Carlos Alomar and some chords played by Bowie himself.
    
    Exists one cover live version from the early years of the Velvet
    Underground, with Nico ("Le femme fattal") singing. 
    
    "We colud beat them, forever and EVER!,
    	oh! we could be heroes just for one day!"
    
    For many people (including me), that song it's an hymn.
    Historically it's very important because people recognizes to Bowie,
    Fripp, Brian Eno and Peter Gabriel the founders of the 80's pop sound
    since the mid 70's.
    
    If any of you don't care about this writing, it's OK,
    
    	But just as BenJ said, listen to it, and love it...

Hi Steve!

	Thanxs Carlos for your explanations. Guess I don't know Bwie and his
musicians like U do but...
	There's something interresting written by both Bowie and Queen, I mean
the song "Under pressiure". I love it too...
	I haven't really anderstood what U  said about the V.U. but I love
this group too.

    first off...Nastassia Kinski is an actress, french, that did some
    culty type movies back in the 80's.
    She's a total babe. She recently resurfaced after a long long 
    hiatus in a movie where she did parachuting with either Charlie Sheen
    or Keannu Reeves.
    
    anyhow, the song is by David Bowie, the name is "Cat People"
    as in the movie by the same name.
