Song lyric stuck in my head...

Got to add Spooky to the mix too...

In the cool of the evening
when ev'rything is gettin' kind of groovy,
I call you up and ask you if you want to go
and meet and see a movie.

First you say no, you've got some plans for the night,
And then you stop, and say, "All right."
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you.

You always keep me guessin', I never seem to know
what you are thinkin'.
And if a fella looks at you, it's for sure
your little eye will be a-winkin'.

I get confused, 'cause I don't know where I stand,
And then you smile, and hold my hand.
Love is kinda crazy
with a spooky little girl like you. Spooky!

If you decide someday to stop this little game
that you are playin', I'm gonna tell you all
what my heart's been a-dyin' to be sayin'.
Just like a ghost,
you've been a-hauntin' my dreams,
So I'll propose... on Halloween.

Love is kinda crazy
with a spooky little girl like you.
Spooky, Spooky, Spooky, Oh-whoa, all right,
I said Spooky!

Interesting fact about Spooky--

Spooky was originally an instrumental song by saxophonist Mike Sharpe (Shapiro) which first charted in 1967. Its best known version was created by The Classics IV when guitarist James Cobb and producer Buddy Buie added lyrics in 1968.

Cobb (along with bandmates Robert Nix and Dean Daughtry) later became part of the Atlanta Rhythm Section and re-recorded "Spooky" in 1979.

I prefer ARS's version but hey, that is just me.

Champagne Jam, anyone?
Show me your tan lines..and I'll show you mine!

I just want to be Layla.....

I knew that ARS were a group of studio musicians.
The original singer was Ronnie Hammond. I heard the replacement. He's passable but not as good as Hammond.

Got to see them in Largo a few years ago. A 300 seat venue, got fourth row center!
Show me your tan lines..and I'll show you mine!

I just want to be Layla.....

Its been a few years since I have seen them live as well.  How about "FireFall" ever follow any of their stuff?

Oh yes, Firefall...

When it all goes crazy and the thrill is gone
When the days get rainy and the nights get long
When you get that feelin you were born to lose
Starin' at your ceiling feelin' the blues

When there's so much trouble that you want to cry
When your love has crumbled and you don't know why
When your hopes are fading and they can't be found
Dreams have left you waiting friends let you down

Well just remember I love you
And it'll be all right
Just remember I love you
All that I can say just remember I love you
Maybe all your blues will fade away

When you need a lover and you're down so low
And you start to wonder but you never know
When it seems like sorrow is your only friend
Knowing that tomorrow you'll feel this way again

When the blues come cryin' at the break of dawn
When the rain keeps fallin' but the rainbow's gone
When you feel like cryin' but the tears won't come
Then your dreams are dyin' when you're on the run

Just remember I love you
And it'll be all right
Just remember I love you
All that I can say just remember I love you
Maybe all your blues will wash away

So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

Masquerading as a normal person day after day is exhausting.

One of the bands I played with in High school practiced in a little barn across the street from where some of the members of Firefall lived. They actually came over to see us a couple times.
I hear they have released, or are going to release a new album.

Let us not forget...


Didn't I hear you cry this mornin'
Didn't I feel you weep
Teardrops flowing down on me
Like rivers in my sleep

In my dream of laughter
You came creeping with your fears
Tellin' me your sorrow
In the trace ends of your tear

That's a strange way to tell me you love me
When your sorrow is all I can see
If you just want to cry to somebody
Don't cry to me, no
Don't cry to me, no

Didn't I hear your voice this mornin'
Didn't you call my name
I heard you whisper softly
But the words were never plain
And in your dream of darkness
I came shinin' like the sun
Waiting for the laughter
But the laughter never come

That's a strange way to tell me you love me
When your sorrow is all I can see
If you just want to cry to somebody
Don't cry to me, no
Don't cry to me, no

Didn't you feel alone this morning
Didn't you need a friend
And in your darkest hour
You came runnin' back again

That's a strange way to tell me you love me
That's a strange way to tell me you love me
That's a strange way to tell me you love me




And...



Last December I met a girl
She took a likin' to me
Said she loved me
But she didn't know the meanin' of the word

She imagined love to be grand
Me holdin' her hand and
Whisperin' sweet things and
Cooin' softly like a song bird

Then one mornin' she came to me
With a tear in her eye
And a sigh on her breath
And Lord she said
"Hon, I'm heavy with child"

And I said "god damn girl can't you see
That I'm breakin' my back
Just tryin' to keep my head above water
And it's turnin' me wild"

Cinderella can't you see
Don't want your company
You better leave this mornin' leave today
Take your love and your child away

No no no no, no no no no
No no no no, no no no no
No no no no, no no no no
No no no no, no no no no
No no no no, no no no no
No no no no no

Woah woah, no
Woah woah, no
Woah woah, no
Woah woah, woah woah woah, no

Rockin' chair on my front porch
Well I'm thinkin' about all the things that I did
As a young man
Now that I'm old

And I remember her and the boy
Did he have all the toys and the joys
That a young man should have
Before he gets too old

Cinderella couldn't you see
I didn't want your company
You shoulda left that mornin' left that day
Took your love and your child away







Then another favorite..


Last night it snowed for the first time
Everything's covered in white
How many months till the springtime
It's a long winter's night

I have to go, I feel I'm sinkin'
I just don't know
But I can't stop thinkin'
Mexico

Somewhere that's close to the ocean
Somewhere that's warm and alive
Somewhere to sleep in the open
With the sun in my eyes

I have to go, I feel I'm sinkin'
I just don't know
But I can't stop thinkin'
Mexico

Winter wind blowin'
And Lord but they sting
Summer wind sing to me
Promise me everything
Blue skies and sunshine wherever I go
Sweet senoritas are waiting to love me I know

Mexico
Mexico
Mexico

Darken the city, night is a wire
Steam in the subway, earth is a afire
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
Woman, you want me, give me a sign
And catch my breathing even closer behind
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo

In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Smell like I sound, I'm lost in a crowd
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line in discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And I'm hungry like the wolf

Stalked in the forest, too close to hide
I'll be upon you by the moonlight side
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
High blood drumming on your skin, it's so tight
You feel my heat, I'm just a moment behind
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo

In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line, it's discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine, I'm after you
Mouth is alive, all running inside
And I'm hungry like the wolf

Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf

Burning the ground, I break from the crowd
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
I smell like I sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line, it's discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And I'm hungry like the wolf
