Name the song the line is from Part II


Good one. That's Late In The Evening, by Paul Simon.


This was a top-10 hit in 1976:

Well, woke up this morning with a wine glass in my hand
Whose wine? What wine? Where the hell did I dine?
Must have been a dream, I don't believe where I've been
Come on, let's do it again


Well, woke up this morning with a wine glass in my hand
Whose wine? What wine? Where the hell did I dine?
Must have been a dream, I don't believe where I've been
Come on, let's do it again



Six-word title. Best I can tell, the song is about waking up with a hangover after a wild night.

British musician.

In his recordings, he sometimes used an electronic "talk box" that could produce a number of unusual sonic effects, including one that sounded like a talking guitar.

That’s one of my favorites. It’s “Do you feel like we do?” by Peter Frampton.

Next:

I got your picture hangin' on the wall
It can't see or come to me
when I call your name

Great Motown, Cyn!

Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing, by Marvin Gaye and (I think?) Tammi Terrell. It was definitely a duet, anyway.


This is from 1985:

I can't tell you what you're feeling inside
And I can't sell you what you don't want to buy
Something's missing, you've got to look back on your life
You know something here just ain't right




That’s a really good one, Jim. It’s “What a bout love?” by Heart. “Bad Animals’ was a great album. I used to listen to it a lot.

I’ll do one more from the 80s:

A one track mind
You can't be saved
oblivion is all you crave
If there's some left for you
You don't mind if you do


That's Addicted To Love, by Robert Palmer. I liked the song. And the video.


This is mid-70s:

Heaven's holdin' a half moon
Shinin' just for us
Let's slip off to a sand dune, real soon
And kick up a little dust


Good Morning All,

That’s “Midnight at the oasis” by Maria Muldaur (sp?).

This was a hit in 1965 and again in 1975:

I’ve tried my best to be strong,
I’m not able
I’m like a helpless child
left in a cradle

That's Take Me In Your Arms. I remember The Doobie Brothers singing it. I assume that was the 1975 hit version. I don't remember a 1965 hit version.


This one goes back to 1964:

I'll give you candy, and a quarter
If you're quiet like you oughta be
And keep a secret with me


That’s “Little children” but I can’t remember who did it. Wasn’t it a vocal group from England? I didn’t look the last time I heard it

BTW, “Take me in your arms (rock me a little while)” was a hit for Kim Weston on Motown records in 1965. It was written by Holland-Dozier-Holland.

From 1977:

She is frequently kind
And she's suddenly cruel
She can do as she pleases
She's nobody's fool
Cyndee, I didn't know Take Me In Your Arms was an HDH song. Thanks.

Your lyrics are from She's Always A Woman, by Billy Joel. I always liked his music.


This is from 1976:

Half my life
Is in books' written pages
Lived and learned
From fools and from sages



(Edit: Little Children was done by Billy J. Kramer and The Dakotas. And yes, you're right, Cyn. Despite the fact that the band's name evokes mental images from the American west, Billy and the band were from Liverpool.)
