songs remembered from just one line

Uga Chucka Uga Uga Uga Chucka

The artist would be nice on this one too.

It's funny. When this song came out, I wouldn't hear the first "U", so it sounded to me like

"gotcha gaow gaow gaow gotcha gaow gaow gaow..."

"Come and Get It" by the lads from Liverpool

George

It is, indeed, Come and Get It.

It's by Badfinger. ( Artist not required on this thread)

Yer up!

[hiway29]

Come and Get It-was performed by Badfinger, but written by Lennon-McCartney--I THINK Paul wrote it for them

[GeorgeStGeorge]

And Badfinger tried awfully hard to sound like the Beatles. Anyway...

...Rooms to let fifty cents. :)

King of the Road. Not sure who the most popular version was, but Roger Miller did it, among others.

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Correct. I'm not sure who recorded it, other than Roger.

I thought someone used those words to redo Hooked on a Ceiling, I mean Feeling

[Bluzeman]

This one goes back a few years, so I'll give the first 2 lines.

Yes we're gonna have a wingding

I must be really bad at this game. I thought everyone would get this one.

[WordWolf]

Remember the audience has shrunk for the games. A lot fewer people log in nowadays.

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Also, the onus in THIS thread is on the clue-giver to pick a song that just about everybody knows from the first line.

I may have heard this song, but it sure doesn't ring any bells with me.

[now I see]

I've heard this one, and I know I know it, but it's just out of reach....Ahh, lightbulb moment ..steely dan, no, The Nightfly, Donald Fagen...the title...wait a minute, it is, New Frontier?

A most excelent album, from cover to cover, music that never ages...love that album

[Bluzeman]

Yep, New Frontier by Donald Fagen!

And you are correct, excellent album!

I couldn't find a decent youtube video of it, but if you heard it George, I'm sure you would recognize it from the first line. :)

Don't want no Captain Crunch, don't want no Raisin Bran

[Bluzeman]

LOL! I looked it up so I'm not gonna answer, but funny funny song. :)

[GeorgeStGeorge]

I doubt that I'd get it without looking it up, either. :(
