Is it Eve of Destruction ? Barry McGuire
-
Number 7 is Gordon Lightfoot. If you could read my mind.
Not having much luck with the others though.
-
No 8 Is "Everybody's Talking" Nillson
Tinx is right with the song title to No 10 and it was by The Real Thing
-
Thanks so much KKOB it was driving me mad x
-
I stand corrected KKOB. No. 5 Eve of Destruction .
-
is number 1 Albatross?
-
Is that Albatross the instrumental from Fleetwood Mac?
-
The song Everybodys talking comes from Midnight Cowboy (I think)

For me the quirkiest lyric I've every heard......''I'm gonna stand guard, like a postcard of a golden retriever''
-
No one has taken a stab at 3 and 6, but you'll kick yourselves when you find the answer out. 4 might be a stretch but it is, IMHO, a classic, I'll give you a clue, it was the theme music for an early sixties TV show. Clue for nine they also had a hit in a rainbow valley.
I'll give the answers tomorrow. ;)
-
No.3 Shake Rattle and Roll..Bill Hailey and the Comets I think...remember singing along to this and other similar records of my parents when I was a little girl. Used to belt out the song whether I knew the lyrics or not or just sang something that sounded like what I thought it said. Still im sure what I made up couldnt have been any stranger than the actual lyrics!
-
Mrs Pops thinks that No 9 is The Love Affair....Bringing on back the good times.
-
I think 6 is the same as 3. Shake Rattle and Roll.
Big Joe Turner, Bill Haley and Elvis
-
Is that Albatross the instrumental from Fleetwood Mac?
Ha ha - of course, :-[ I thought there was a vocal bit at the beginning ......
-
I wake this morning to find that nine out of ten of the songs have been cracked, but no one has come up with an answer, or even a suggestion, to number four...even with the benefit of a clue. So here is another a space adventure with strings attached.....come on you must get it now.
Will post the full answers later today, when hopefully we have an answer, or an attempt at an answer to four!!
-
I wish I was a spaceman in fireball XL5!!!

You shouldn't just "take it" the way you decide and start returning the ill feeling. Knowing KKOB as I fdo, I am sure from that list he was offering 'sex on text'!
