Guess The Song

First topic message reminder :

How to Play
-- The first person (that would be I) must post a line or two from a song of their choosing.
-- Everyone elses' job is to try and work out which song it is originated from by posting on this thread.
-- once the questioner has confirmed a correct answer, the person who correctly guessed the song first them gets the opportunity to post a line of their own choosing...

Rules
-- The line must be easily recognisable from one particular song; not something that could be from any one of a number of songs.
-- Try to keep them amusing and original in order to keep the fun rolling.

Le's go!

Run like the wind?

Saxon- Ride like the Wind

Well i was close

Pretending you got a sliver
But your not fooling me
Cause i can see
The way you shake and shiver

Scooby doo?

He must be out with the horses today. Fair call.

A boy tries hard to be a man
His mother takes him by the hand

I Will Follow - U2

"In the country where the sky touches down
On the field, she lay her down to rest"

ELO - Do Ya

No yours Kenny

Box of balloons with a featherlight touch
Pack of party poppers that pop in the night
A toothbrush and hairspray , plastic grin
Mrs Clays on the corner has just walked in

Wow, thats a thinker...

not when you realise what the song is

Ha.

I am a big boy now or so they say

Thats the one

Well a simple kinda life never did me no harm
A raisin' me a family and workin' on a farm

It's country. That's as close as I can get!

Very close, the singer died in a plane crash

John Denver?

Yep

Damn it, I only know two John Denver songs. If it's not 'Country Road' nor 'Leaving on a Jet Plane', I don't know it!

Come on, his biggest hit...

Thank god i am a country boy

a good old thigh-slapping toon... hang on, what's that? You have 3 thighs?

This is one of my favourite songs of all time , i played it over and over again .

If you want the fruit to fall
You have to give the tree a shake
But if you shake the tree to hard,
The bough is gonna break

Not got a clue on that one LOL

more lyrics

Save me , Save me
Be the light in my eyes
What i wouldn't give to be
When i was .......................

Still clueless LOL

I know that! It's 'Mary's Prayer' by Danny Wilson!

Spot on

Okay, here's one:

'We stood on a beach at sunset, do you remember when?'

Jaysus, i havent got a clue about this one either.

Here's a clue, Billy: it was recorded in the past.

Era?

1960s.

Rock and roll?

Sort of. British artist(s). No more clues!

I am going to have to give up on this then. Its not the beatles or the stones. Probably something like Tom Jones, Donovan or Little patty.

You've named the right artist there, Billy!

Still clueless

Tom Jones ?

I really give up here, i havent got a clue. You win Lucky

Okay, it was Donovan. Can you name the song?

Am i allowed to google? Thats the only way i will get it

Well, if you want to cheat yourself...

Its the only way i will get it i am afraid.

I dont know either ?

I know that one... it was a bit hit in Australia. 'Sunshine Superman'.

"we can dive into distant amoebas, our wings could melt in the sun.."

Is that it? I still dont know it

Correct Breaker, it was 'Sunshine Superman'. I think Donovan's great, I have four or five of his albums.
