Name the song the line is from Part II

Darn, now which choo choo was that? Oh yeah, the Chattanooga Choo Choo! Was that Glenn Miller?


A nice one from 1983:

Well, my friends, the time has come
To raise the roof and have some fun
Throw away the work to be done
Let the music play on
(play on, play on, play on)



Edited to correct the year.

That’s Lionel Richie telling us to party “All Night Long”.

Here’s some more advice:

Maybe she has it in her mind
That she's just wasting her time
Ask her to stay


I'm drawing a blank so far, Cyndee.


Okay, Jim. Think Male Jazz vocalist singing. He’s telling men to show their women how they feel about them.

Here’re a few more lines:

Send her roses just because
If it's violins she loves
Let them play



A Hundred Ways, or One Hundred Ways, or something like that?

Not confident about either of those titles, and still blank on an artist.



I'm doin' good on this one, huh? Ha ha ha...


“One Hundred Ways”. It is by James Ingram. I'd say you got it.

Got another one?

Edit: wrong phrasing

OK, I'll post a new one quick-like, before you change your mind.


It's from 1981 (US #1/UK #8):

I can go for being twice as nice
I can go for just repeating the same old lines


That would be a Hall and Oates song known as “I Can’t Go For That (No Can Do)”.

Try this one from 1982:

You mention
the time we were together
so long ago
Well I don't remember
All I know is it makes me feel good now


It's like I told you, Only The Lonely can play. 'Course, I was just repeating what the Motels told me.
I liked that one.


See if you remember this from 1985:

Oh I saw you by the wall
Ten of your tin soldiers in a row
With eyes that looked like ice on fire
The human heart a captive in the snow


Sorry Jim - I have the singer but not the song title
