Last week. This week:
- “Komm, gib mir deine Hand” by the Beatles, guessed by Kim
In deinen armen bin ich glücklich und froh - “Counting Back to 1” by Beautiful Small Machines
A bug in Ender’s Game - “Diamonds and Gold” by My Terrible Friend (orig. Tom Waits)
Sing me a rainbow, steal me a dream - “Burning Stars” by Mimicking Birds
I’ll keep an eye on you if you keep one on me - “Make It” by Aerosmith
Better weather, pull yourself together - “Sleeping With the Lights On” by Teitur
Oh I’ve been haunted by this old ghost before - “Can’t Stand Losing You” by the Police, guessed by Clayton
And I guess it’s all true what your girlfriends say - “Just One of Those Things” by Louis Armstrong, guessed by Occupant
One of those bells that now and then rings - “Born in the U.S.A.” by Bruce Springsteen, guessed by Clayton
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground - “Girlfriend” by Wings
Show him the letters I’ve been saving
As always, guess the lyric, win no prize. Good luck!
7 – “Can’t Stand Losing You” – the Police
9 – “Born in the USA” – Bruce Springsteen
1. The German version of I Want to Hold Your Hand by the Beatles
8. “Just One of Those Things” – Oh, I don’t know. It could be anyone from Nat King Cole or Frank Sinatra to nearly anyone who’s ever done an album of standards. So let’s say Diana Krall.
No hostility intended, Fred.
I’m not necessarily a fan of Krall — I know her mostly as Mrs. Elvis Costello — but I wouldn’t take your thinking me a fan as an act of hostility. 🙂
