Name that Oldie But Goodie!

[Rich48]

You are right-Amazing Grace, my chains are gone

Ok--we are on this one:

You said we're through before
You walked out on me before
I tried to tell you, but you didn't want to know
This time you're different and determined to go

Hint--this was the very first hit by the Rolling Stones in the US.

 

[RuthD]

Tell Me by the Rolling Stones.?

 

[Rich48]

Tell Me by the Rolling Stones.?

Absolutely correct! BTW--if you get this on CD today, it most likely will include an instrumental verse that was not on the orginal 45. This song was the 1st hit by The Stones in the US!

Your turn to post lyrics!

 

[RuthD]

Wow! I did not know that.

Sometimes we’ll sigh - sometimes we’ll cry
and we’ll know why just you and I

True Love Ways--Buddy Holly; and covered by Peter and Gordan in the mid sixties.

I love every movement
There's nothing I would change
She doesn't need improvement
She's much too nice to rearrange

Only one answer! Over The Rainbow, original, of course, by Judy Garland, in the 1939 movie The Wizard Of Oz.

YouTube - Somewhere Over The Rainbow (clip legendado)

Ok--for some great rock and roll trivia! This song rates as the most song recorded in the doowop style. There are so many, but this one, IMHO, was the best! In almost every case, when this song was done by a doowop group, they tended to flatten out the melody, and this one is no exception. But--enjoy!

[Rich48]

Whoa, oh, I never realized
What a kiss could be.
This could only happen to me.

 

[RuthD]

I should have known better by The Beatles.

You see, my love is alive
It's like a seed that only needs

When You Tell Me That You Love Me--Diana Ross

The bears and the birds tell Clifton Clowers
If a stranger should wander there

Wolverine Mountains by Claude King


Come On Sexy, Come On Roll!
Everybody Hit The Floor!

 

[Rich48]

You got it! Did you know that there was an answer song to this one? Done by Jo Anne Campbell The Girl From Wolverton Mountain

Had to Google that one! Came up with Witch Doctor, The Chipmunks!

This one is a bit obscure--ok to google. Beautiful ballad!

As I lie awake resting from the day
I hear the clock passing time away.

You got the Chipmunks with Witch Doctor right. I thought I'd throw a funny one in.


Didn't they try to find some good for you and me?
And we'll be free

Wonderful song, regardless of one's political persuasion!
And did not have to google. Love this song! Answer:

Abraham, Martin, and John--Dion.

Actually, I made a video for this one some time back! Could not upload to youtube, so chose this site--give it time to load, and you may, or may not have to watch a short commercial before it begins

Abraham, Martin and John

Easy one here!

They say we're young and we don't know
We won't find out until we growhttp://connect.tangle.com/view_video?viewkey=ff7e3eb56a29a9f8fb3a
