Songs That I’ve Made a Happy Fool of Myself Singing Along To
(HT: 2Blowhards by way of Obscurorant 2.0)
This would be different from my favorites, or stuff I grew up with. Most of it is seventies stuff, with a few from later, but, ya know, rock ‘n roll’s been going downhill since Buddy Holly died. Here’s da list:
- The Night Chicago Died, by Paper Lace
- American Woman, by Guess Who
- Put Your Hand in the Hand, by Ocean
- Signs, by Five Man Electrical Band
- Horse With No Name, by America
- The Cover Of “Rolling Stone,” by Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show
- Mr Roboto, by Styx
- Burning Down the House, by Talking Heads
I’ll tag KingDavid, Karen, and Jamsco.

“HOLD TIGHT. WE’RE IN FOR NASTY WEATHER. THERE HAS GOT TO BE A WAY. BURNING DOWN THE HOUSE!”
Love that David Byrne, King of Quirk.
I’ll have to give it some thought… but tomorrow. Or Monday. Been online too much today, and must go get busy.
Thanks for the tag!

Okay, I’m on it.
But Steve . . . “A Horse With No Name”? It is not worth making a fool of yourself over a song with a one note melody.
Thanks.

I just checked in for the first time in about a week. I’ll get my brain working on it and get back soon.
