Re: Name that tune

Really? No body else wants to go next? I waited 5 1/2 hours since I first saw Wolfie's post!

That's the song.

I thought it was Beatles first (and McCartney written) and covered by Marmalade.

Re: Name that tune

Is that a cryptic clue to the song? I did not think it was so cryptic. :oops: However, no one has been able to name the tune without googling it. :( So, let's try something else that should be known to everyone, even if used before: "Desmond has a barrow in the marketplace Molly is the singer ...

Re: Name that tune

A no from Wolfie and no other responses. It looks like no one will get this one. It is not just my choices; participation is low, and we get a few posts in a row and then not much for a while. Maybe I should just give up and leave the thread. I really do not want to, so please give me one reason to ...

Re: Name that tune

Wolfie, I hope you can remember soon! I would give you one good clue, if I could think of one. 8) Maybe some more lyrics will help someone. "This youthful heart can love you Yes and give you what you need I said this youthful heart can love you Oh and give you what you need But I'm too old to g...

Re: Name that tune

Maybe I am confusing people by choosing a song several decades later than my usual?

It does not look like anyone is going to name Carefree Highway, so Jill, as the closest artist namer, can choose the next tune.

Re: Name that tune

As alluded to above, I really wanted to post a song by this Canadian singer/songwriter, since he died at the beginning of May. We have had several of his songs in the past on this thread, which limited me to perhaps lesser-know ones. I can't think of more clues, and more lyrics would not help much, ...

Hell's Bells.
