Thank you Bill!! I was just telling Jan that I couldn't figure out who Don McLean was talking about but I adore the song. I know the full version word for word. :) Damn, that's a long song!!

K. "We're friends. You smile, I smile. You hurt, I hurt. You cry, I cry. You jump off a bridge.... I'm gonna miss your dumb ass."

Hmm... you could play Russian Roulette with my .38 and find out? Just tell us where you want to be buried...

:) K.

"So tonight I'll ask the stars above, how did I ever win your love? What did I do? What did I say to turn your angel eyes my way?"

That's right. American Pie by Don McLean. Okay, let's try another. (And looking the lyrics up on the net is cheating!) I've come to the conclusion I'm making these much too easy for you guys. This is a great one, too. Hopefully a little harder.

"I got a freaky old lady name of Cocaine Katie who embroiders on my jeans. I got my poor old gray haired daddy, driving my limousine..."

K.

"So tonight I'll ask the stars above, how did I ever win your love? What did I do? What did I say to turn your angel eyes my way?"

That one is Cover of the Rolling Stone by Dr. Hook if I remember right.

Bill Berckman

You looked it up, didn't you? :)

Right. Hmm...

"All you did was wreck my bed, and in the morning kick me in the head..."

K. "So tonight I'll ask the stars above, how did I ever win your love? What did I do? What did I say to turn your angel eyes my way?"

Maggie by Rod Stewart. No, I didn't look it up. :-)

How about this one:

"There was funky Billy Chen, and little Sammy Chung"

Rolling Stone (Gonna get my picture on the cover) Stone (Gonna buy 5 copies for my mother) ....

Charles of Kankakee

Nope I knew that one. I know most of the stuff from the 70s. Bill Berckman

This one I am unfamiliar with but would venture a guess.....

"Kung Fu Fighting"????.............LOL

Where else in the Seventies?

Here is another one.

Hungry as hell no food to eat And Joe said that he would sell his soul For just a piece of meat Water enough to drink for two And Joe said to me, "I'll have a swig And then there's some for you."

Hint: Song was a top hit in 1971 and was written by Rupert Holmes. If you know who Rupert Holmes is, what other hit did he have in 1979? This song was banned on some stations at the time. Bill Berckman

Rupert was the writer of the song that was best known as "If You Like Pina Coladas"...........I think the nam e was actually "Escape", wasn't it?

I don't remember the other song you are referring to, at all ! that seems odd to me.

K. "So tonight I'll ask the stars above, how did I ever win your love? What did I do? What did I say to turn your angel eyes my way?"

I have no earthly idea.
