Sorry for the delay, if I’ve kept you waiting. I was at my company holiday party earlier this evening, enjoying some good food, too much drink, good conversation, and the very amusing sight of my boss out on the dance floor.
As always, good luck. The remaining answers to last week’s lyrics will be posted soon now.
10: Gorillaz-Windmill
Number 8 is going to bother me.
Ok, I have the feeling some of these could be various songs and various artists. But I’ll give it a stab.
4. Oh My Love by John Lennon
6. Peace in the Valley by Elvis
7. Groovin by the Young Rascals
I want to say 9 is a Johnny Cash song but the title is escaping me…
Not “Windmill,” but close.
And yes, #9 is a Johnny Cash song.
Yep, the song’s name is Feel Good, Inc.
I had trouble with #8, being not quite sure if it was a male or female singing it. Turns out it’s a high-pitched male: Counting Crows: A Murder of One.
