Apparently.

Now she's a singer dating a swinger

I can't decide which is worse

I have to admit, it seems familiar, but I doubt I've heard it in decades.

OK...This is kind of obscure, but when the guys I hung out with first heard this song, this line became sort of a catch phrase. So, I'm hoping someone else had the same reaction to this line, which is spoken as an aside, and recognizes it, as well.

"Elmore James got nothin' on this, baby!"

Well, its beatles isn't it! Let It Be album. For You Blue. I've always thought it was a reference from George telling John how well he plays the guitar on this song.

Whew! What a relief to know I'm not a nut case for latching onto that line.

Now, what I find ironic is that George delivers the line, but it's John who's playing the slide part. (Elmore's specialty.)

She's a good girl loves her momma

Loves Jesus and America too

Tom Petty Free Falling.

One of the best scenes from Jerry Maquire was when Jerry (Tom Cruise) found that song on the radio and sang it to celebrate the "signing" of his first client.

Okay, here's the next clue. It may be semi obscure. Not sure how big a hit it was, but it's been running through my head for about a week now, so...

I'm a bookkeeper's son

I don't want to shoot no one

Well I crossed my old man back in Oregon

Don't Take Me Alive! (Steely Dan)

great song

I think this song is somewhat less obscure...

"While the music played you worked by candlelight"

[Human without the bean]

That seems more obscure ss, not less. Not an inkling here!

You talk about things that nobody cares

You're wearin out things that nobody wears

Song's in my head, I hear it over and over but can't come up with it? Good song too.

~Aerosmith~

OK I got one!

Listen to the music playing in your head [that's what I did]

[Human without the bean]

I will only say, unbelievable nobody got this! Unless of course everybody is on vacation and hasn't seen it! Or maybe you were born after 1970.

Listen to the music playing in your head. Yeah! FREE POST!

If no one wants it I'll take it.

I told you about strawberry fields

You know the place where nothing is real

Well here's another place you can go

Where everything flows

[GeorgeStGeorge]

It's best not to use a lyric with the title in it...

"Strawberry Fields Forever"

Those schoolgirl days of telling tales and biting nails are gone

You know your beatles waysider. That's it.

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Interesting. I've never heard that song before. The Beatles did mention early songs in some of their later ones, though, so I shouldn't be surprised.

Since Waysider got my clue AND yours, I guess it all worked out!
