what song is that from

1) the video games they play me, face it on the level but they take you every time 1 on 1

2) We're setting sail, to the place on the map, from which no one has ever returned

3) See the stone set in your eyes, see the thorn twist in your sigh

4) Well she was an American girl, raised on promises

5) Rich girl she buys her dreams, its a rich world behind the scenes

Damn! musiclover, I mean funslover was quick!!

I'll take the obvious ones

3) U2 "With or Without You," this is kind of spooky, but was I grooving to "Bad" when my upload link finished and I popped back on and saw this was updated

4) TP and Heartbreakers "American Girl"

Aaaaahhhhh Number 5 is 'THE SEEKERS'. Trust an Aussie boy to know what another Aussie boy would throw at the world to guess.From the home of the big white bear!!!!!!!!!

Hey SD! Looking at the topic further down about ' Who shaves the girl' and it reminded me of something. Have you ever heard the term ' Aussie Kiss' (I read it in an American book) cause I certainly never have. If you haven't either , the Yanks apparently use this term for a 'French Kiss DOWN UNDER" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ok time to put you all out of your missery and its was sooooooo damn hard to wasnt it

I should point out I also have this on my forum. click the guitar to get there

1) AC/DC - Who Made Who ( well done ramblin'man )

2) World Party - Ship of fools (well done ramblin'man)

3) U2 - with or without you (well done mole)

4) Tom Petty - American Girl (well done mole)

5) Smokie - For a Few Dollars More


cant believe that nobody got Smokie

SD, let me know if you mind me doing my own one of these in here, okay? And SHIT, I just remembered that I registered in your music forum and have forgotten to ever return (very ashamed). Sorry about that.

1. The very famous 2-hit wonder band Paper Lace, "The Night Chicago Died". 1974, I think. Bonus points for anyone who can come up with their OTHER big hit.

2. Oh my God you didn't just ask about a Partridge Family song did you? "I think I love you". Actually, did they write it, or just cover it? Uhhh, not that I care...

3. Rock Show by Sir Paul McCartney

4. done

5. Stumped again on #5!!

RM

p.s. Tilly I'm a yank, but I've never heard of an Aussie Kiss. Makes sense to me, perhaps its new? Of course most of my fellow yanks will mis-pronounce "Aussie".

"Billy dont be a hero" was the first of their hits but only in te UK as they were beaten to it in the US by "Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods" another top 20 hit for the guys was " the black-eyed boys"

Oh shit, you are totally right -- my bad -- I was in fact thinking about BDBAH. I always thought that was Paper Lace, as when I was a lad my sister had a Paper Lace album (name escapes me) which had "Billy" on it.

RM

Ok time to close this one and start a newbie

1 Paper Lace - The night Chicago died
2 Partridge Family - I think I Love You
3 Wings - Venus and Mars/Rock Show
4 The Red Hot Chili Peppers - By the way
5 rocky Burnett - Tired of toeing the line

Nice work everyone, btw wings were still together at the tim Venus and Mars was recorded but Sir Paul is a dandy answer anyways and will always be accepted.

and the Partridge family was a good early 70's show that pushed the boundries of the TV norm. their album is a must have. I can upload some if people want. Also to answer a question, I think I love you was written by Tony Romeo.
None of the original 1970 music was written by the family and only 2 songs in 1971 were co penned by david Cassidy and that was "Lay It On The Line (Wes Farrell/David Cassidy) " and "Love Is All That I Ever Needed (Wes Farrell/David Cassidy) " in 1971 they released 3 albums and one of those was a christmas album.
1972 saw them release another 3 album and cassidy had his first solo composition on one of them "There’ll Come A Time (David Cassidy) "
that was the bads only contribution to the songs of that year.

was that to much information?

sir darkstar

here are the next ones

1) Walking like a man,hitting like a hammer, she's a juvenile scam.

2) Anytime I need to see your face, I just close my eyes and I am taken to a place where your crystal mind and Magenta feelings take up shelter in the base of my spine Sweet like a chic-a-cherry cola

3) I am an antichrist, I am an anarchist, Don't know what I want but I know how to get it, I wanna destroy the passerby

4) Time, time, time see whats become of me

5) Tonight's the night we'll make history, as sure as dogs can fly and I'll take any risk to tie back the hands of time and stay with you here all night
