Music Meme 5: You Can Sing While I Drive

[jlh]

I'll be afk for the weekend on a mini-break with ziggy1278 visiting my bff C____, so I thought I'd end this week o' music memes with the mix I made about him, and about our adolescence spent driving around the roads of Maine singing to the radio.

You Can Sing While I Drive

1. Just a castaway, an island lost at sea The Police | Message in a Bottle
   
2. In the distance, she saw me comin' 'round U2 | Trip Through Your Wires
   
3. I need a refueling. I need your kiss. Come on now and plant it on my lips. B-52's | Whammy Kiss
   
4. […] If you need somebody to love, just look into my eyes The Beatles | Any Time at All
   
5. […] wants to be a sign painter. First he's got to learn to read. REM | Old Man Kensey
   
6. […] Baby, yesterday's favorite. Don't you hate it.
   
7. […] Don't touch that dial, don't try to smile, just take this pill, it's in your file Joe Jackson | Cancer
   
8. […] Disturb me with all your cares and your worries 10,000 Maniacs | Trouble Me
   
9. See me a big woman, big woman look how you dance Peter Gabriel | Kiss of Life
   
10. Nobody on the road, nobody on the beach Don Henley | Boys of Summer
    
11. Sweet wonderful you, you make me happy with the things you do Fleetwood Mac | You Make Loving Fun
    
12. I've seen your picture, your name in lights above it Steely Dan | Peg
    
13. Even on the darkest night when empty promise means empty hand Duran Duran | Lonely In Your Nightmare
    
14. Baby you stole my heart, I don't know what to do
    
15. If you've got something to say why don't you say it
    
16. You said the world was magic, I was wide-eyed and laughing Indigo Girls | Joking
    
17. Seal my fate, I get your tongue in the mail Crowded House | Love This Life
    
18. Come on baby, let's get out of this town Melissa Etheridge | You Can Sleep While I Drive

Five songs left from yesterday (though admittedly two are a little obscure), three from Tuesday, and four from Monday.

You got it! SO the song of being a little kid in the car listening to the am radio.

It so is! And now I have that song stuck in my head, but god, the memories! I want to go put on my plaid pants and listen to '70s music all night.

ETA: Oh! And 11 is You Make Loving Fun by Fleetwood Mac.

Okay, got any Jackson Browne?

[jlh.livejournal.com]

I don't have any on this mix, because I didn't own any at the time. I might have put Doctor My Eyes on it. No Eagles, though. I'm out of my requisite Eagles period.

1) The Police, S.O.S.
3) B-52s, Whammy! (oh god, I love them)
13) I should really stop answering all the Duran Duran ones, shouldn't I? Lonely in your Nightmare

[jlh.livejournal.com]

But if you don't, who will?

That isn't actually the title of the Police song, but you'll see it when I put it up anyway.

Message in a Bottle?

I can do some more singing of lyrics until it comes to me if that's not it.

And see below! Heidi can get them!

13. Lonely In Your Nightmare - Duran Duran
17. Love This Life - See Icon

I've been sitting on my hands all week with these but I have to say it's been fun watching everyone guess. :)

2 is U2's "Trip Through Your Wires".

and OMG 7 is "Everything Gives you Cancer", which no one plays anymore. Woe.

4 is evil and I can't figure it out. :D

[jlh.livejournal.com]

You got it!

#4 is the oldest song on the list, if that helps.
