Is it Sunday all ready? Seriously, you take a week off from work over the holidays and your entire perception of time just flies out the window. Somehow, even though I knew yesterday was Saturday and today was Sunday, the idea that the day before that was, therefore, Friday had not even occurred to me. So I completely missed doing this:
- “Learn Chinese” by Jin
And amigo I ain’t talking about Spanish - “Sunny Afternoon” by Jimmy Buffett (orig. the Kinks), guessed by Betty
And I can’t even sail my yacht - “Souvenir” by Paul McCartney, guessed by Kim
Every little thing is gonna come right in the end - “Us and Them” by Pink Floyd, guessed by Kim and Eric
God only knows it’s not what we would choose to do - “Padrino” by Smash Mouth
Rev up the Lincoln and lets get to drinking some caffeino - “I Go Wild” by the Rolling Stones
Without you I’m dead meat - “All the Things That Go to Make Heaven and Earth” by the New Pornographers
Put your new weight in gold and see what it’s worth - “Like a Rolling Stone” by Bob Dylan, guessed by Eric
You’re invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal - “Rock and Roll” by Lou Reed
My parents are gonna be the death of us all - “Brown Skin Girl” by Sonny Rollins
And if I don’t come back, stay home and mind baby
Better late than never, though, right? This is the last Random Guess 10 of 2007, so…well, still no prizes for correct guesses, but you’ll be able to walk proudly into the new year with the knowledge that you guessed them first.
There were not a lot of guesses last week, but I have faith in you (and in the relative non-obscurity of my musical tastes). As always, good luck!
#4 – Pink Floyd, “Dark Side of the Moon”
#8 – Bob Dylan, “Like a Rolling Stone”
Well it’s from the Dark Side of the Moon album…
I was wondering, but figured Friday went by in a blur of non-working bliss. Lucky, holiday having people… I didn’t say anything though, because I didn’t want you to think this is the *only* reason I come here 😉 But I digress.
#3 Souvenir by Paul McCartney
and I believe 4 is actually Us and Them
That’s all I got. Maybe if you had more drinking songs….
#4 is definitely “Us and Them,” yes.
#2 is “Sunny Afternoon.” The version I have is Jimmy Buffet, but I think it was originally by the Kinks.
Right on the Floyd. And “Sunny Afternoon” was originally by the Kinks. I happened to be listening to the Buffett version, though.
