Name the song the line is from Part II

Good one, slowpoke! That's Tell Him, by The Exciters. I won't say how old (young?) I was at the time, but I remember it well.


I think this one may even have been a few years earlier:

I searched everywhere
Just to find someone who cares
They came down to interrupt
Just as I had given up



(BTW, the original 1961 version of Dedicated To The One I Love was done by the Shirelles.)

I searched everywhere
Just to find someone who cares
They came down to interrupt
Just as I had given up


Hint time: Had the writer of this 1959 doo-wop era song chosen different words to express the same idea, the title might have been The Spiritual Beings Eavesdropped.

Angels?
Monks?
The Angels overheard?

Priest...naw...

Waaaa......wanna play the game...

Wait! It's the Angels Listened IN!!!!!!
The Do-wop clue helped me sing it out...

but I don't know by who- but that's close enough for my peabrain! Yay ME!!!


If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you’ve got no place to go, if you’re feeling down
If you’re all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey I’m still free

I hear that song at work a lot. It's "Take a Chance on Me" by ABBA.

New lyrics --

"I'm gonna run right by your side,
For you pretty baby I'd even die"

Looks like traffic is pretty light on the thread today.

That one is I'm Walkin', by Mr. Fats Domino.


Next:

Well, I saw Uncle John with bald head Sally
He saw Aunt Mary comin' and he ducked back in the alley

Oh baby...

Gonna Have Some Fun Tonight!

A new record for me - recognized two songs in two days.

Here's a (fairly) recent cover that I enjoyed much more than the original:

Thanks for the joy that you've given me
I want you to know I believe in your song

Drift Away...... Dobie Gray I believe.

new lyrics

in a cozy little home out in the country
with two children maybe three
i tell you, i can visualize it all

Slowpoke, the name of the song is Long Tall Sally -- not Gonna Have Some Fun Tonight. (That's a line in the song, though.)

That's a little more Motown. It Was Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me), by the Temptations.


Let's try this one:

Children play in the park, they don't know
I'm alone in the dark, even though
Time and time again, I see your face smiling inside

Make Me Smile-Chicago

Got a good one:

Sundays on the phone to Monday
Tuesdays on the phone to me
