Name the song the line is from Part II

OK - it is still Vegas 777, but I'll throw one in for now to keep it going.

This is a REALLY easy one LOL - and yes - it is acoustic fingerstyle!

I'm empty and aching and I don't know why

Tony, I believe your little fingerstyle featurette is America, by Si and Gar. As in, "they've all gone to look for America."

Actually, I think they've all gone to look for the answer to vegas777's lyrics.

In fact, I did go to look for the song. I googled, so I’m out.

Here is my vote for the absolute worst song to ever come out of the USA

Jeez, Tony, I thought you were a connoisseur of fine music, but now I'm beginning to wonder. How could you NOT like I Want Mt Baby Back, by Jimmy Cross?? What's not to like?? Huh?!?!?

It's got rhythm, melody, harmony, and intricate lyrics. It's got groove, it's got meaning. Plus it's got a good beat, and you can dance to it.

OK, so I talked it over with the heads of the families, and here's the bottom line: They realize that everyone makes a mistake now and then, so they're gonna cut you some slack...just this one time. But you'll have to be much more careful in the future if you don't want to end up sleeping with the fishes.

I googled vegas777's lyrics as well. It seems that no one here knows them so, with all due respect to vegas777, I think we should move on.

The song was I Found A Million Dollar Baby (In A Five & Ten Cent Store). It was first sung by Fanny Brice in a 1931 Broadway musical, and has since been covered by several artists, including some big names. Note to vegas777: We've all posted lyrics that didn't work out.


OK, let's see if we can jump start this old jalopy with (I hope) an easy one:

(Silly girl) Shame on you, your mama said
(Silly girl) Shame on you, you cried in bed
(Silly girl) Shame on you, you told a lie




(Edit: I'll be away this morning. Back this afternoon.)

I'll did deeper and see if I can find the subtleties and hidden pearls

That sounds like Mr Valli & the Four Seasons

Big Girls Don't Cry
Good song

Clues -
Brit - from Manchester.
This did chart at number 1 in the USA
He had 2 bands before starting a solo career.
He was famous more recently for setting fire to a bailiffs car - while the bailiff was in it.
He appeared in court dressed as Lady Justice - and told them that that would be the only justice there.

I didn't know about his extracurricular activities, lol. Sounds like he was an interesing guy.

That's Wayne Fontana (and the Mindbenders), singing Game Of Love.



This was a #6 US hit in 1977. It didn't do quite as well in the UK (#24).

You're digging for gold, you're throwing away
