Wow, I think I'd pretty much forgotten that fun little ditty.

The Beat Goes On, by Sonny and Cher. Good choice!



OK, who's the dummy that started this six-word stuff, huh? This one is NOT six words:

I go to parties sometimes until four
It's hard to leave when you can't find the door

That’s a top-notch song right there, Jim. It’s “Life’s Been Good” by Joe Walsh

Let’s live the high life here:

'Cause the boy with the cold hard cash is always Mr. Right

That sounds a whole lot like Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone. She was a Material Girl, you know.


These guys had aspirations of a different kind:

Well, we're big rock singers
We got golden fingers
And we're loved everywhere we go
(That sounds like us)

Jim's tune is Cover of the Rolling Stone done by Dr. hook (I think). Very catchy tune with funny lyrics. I think the band actually did get their picture on the cover of RS when their hit came out.

I don't have anything new so let's stay with Tonyrob's:

Any song that did that poorly on the Japan Oricon Weekly Singles Chart is probably not going to be very well known.

if nobody gets it I'll give the answer by posting a GREAT video of the song.
(I'll probably post it anyway )

Last clue - This song was performed by 3 superstars singing together.

I still have a few in my 1967 bag. Here’s one:

A gentle touch from that one girl,
and life is sweet and good
