Correct Paul, very good.

Paul Victory · Post by **Paul Victory** » Tue Dec 22, 2020 9:34 pm

Thanks Steve

I don't think this one has been asked before.

You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Post by **Peter_S** » Wed Dec 23, 2020 2:23 am

Ann and myselves say "Blackbird".

Paul Victory · Post by **Paul Victory** » Wed Dec 23, 2020 8:38 pm

Ann and you are both correct! Over to you.

Okay, somebody surprise me by knowing this one.

"Well I saved my pennies and I saved my dimes"

Wolfmiester · Post by **Wolfmiester** » Thu Dec 24, 2020 9:57 am

Nope

But Merry Christmas anyway

Paul Victory · Post by **Paul Victory** » Fri Dec 25, 2020 3:29 pm

Not a clue! But Merry Christmas to you and Ann.

Thank you gentlemen. I hope you and your families had a good Christmas, and hoping for a better New Year for all of us.

A futile addition to the lyrics:

"Well I saved my pennies and I saved my dimes
For I knew there would be a time"

I have an idea for a further, ultimate, hint that will follow on Monday.

I never said it was a good idea,

, but here goes:

"Well I saved my pennies and I saved my dimes (giddy up, giddy up 409)
For I knew there would be a time (giddy up, giddy up 409)
When I would buy a brand new 409 (409, 409)"

The lyrics in parenthesis are background vocals.

This song was said to have started a new genre.

Oh, come on, somebody guess!

Paul Victory · Post by **Paul Victory** » Tue Dec 29, 2020 8:18 pm

Does the number 409 appear in the title of the song, by any chance???

Paul, that would be the entirety of the title of the song by the Beach Boys about a car with a 409 cubic inch engine, and also "four speed, dual quad [and] positraction".

Good job we have some heavy clues then

So either Little Duce Coop, or the T-Bird song... but I still wouldn’t know which.

?????

Paul already gave the song name!

Wolfmiester · Post by **Wolfmiester** » Thu Dec 31, 2020 9:47 am

Lol, I have never heard of it!

Paul Victory · Post by **Paul Victory** » Thu Dec 31, 2020 12:15 pm

I think that's the second time I accidentally got a song title correct on this thread! Mind you, there were some heavy hints.

Time for a hint. The original version of this song was not in English and the non English version was a hit in the US, whereas the English version (by the same artists) was a hit in the UK and Ireland.

Paul Victory · Post by **Paul Victory** » Tue Jan 05, 2021 11:37 am

Another hint. The title of this song has something in common with the previous song.

Wolfmiester · Post by **Wolfmiester** » Wed Jan 06, 2021 2:32 pm

Can’t believe I can’t get it with those clues...

Paul Victory · Post by **Paul Victory** » Wed Jan 06, 2021 11:00 pm

Final clue then I’ll give up.

Good morning Paul.

I have just read out all your clues to Richard and he said, " Could it be, 99 Red Balloons? "

I think you might be right!

Paul Victory · Post by **Paul Victory** » Fri Jan 08, 2021 1:43 pm

Indeed, Richard is right. Over to you two - please decide among yourselves which one of you is going to post the next set of lyrics.

Jill · Post by **Jill** » Fri Jan 08, 2021 3:33 pm

Thank you Paul.

Richard has decided ( voluntarily of course ) that ' she who must be obeyed ' must be obeyed.

Over to me then.

A clue - this was sung as a swansong.
