#13..Billion Dollar Babies...Alice Cooper?

Subject: Re: "Imagine there's no Google - it's easy if you try..."

Written By: Sister Morphine on 03/19/06 at 10:26 am


# 29 Looks like 'You're so vain' (Carly Simon). If it's right, I know, 'cause the song is about me (  :D ). Actually, it was supposedly about Warren Beatty, or possibly even  Mick Jagger, who supplies backing vocals here. Somebody thought #11 was American Woman. Maybe it is, but if not, I thought maybe 'I ran' by A Flock of Seagulls. (tawny eyes that hypnotize). 8). Sort of rhymes.

Well, the line from American Woman is "Colored lights can hypnotize".

Hi Zella,

Wonder if my post the other day was the inspiration for the topic title. Anyhow, another topic I posted also yesterday makes me the essential solver of #30. Since I love karma, has to be Karma Chameleon (Culture Club). Karma! Karma! Karma! ;D ;D ;D

70sto80sGUY


I must have missed that post - but I would be intersted in reading it...where is it?

And the song is correct. :)


# 29 Looks like 'You're so vain' (Carly Simon). If it's right, I know, 'cause the song is about me (  :D ). Actually, it was supposedly about Warren Beatty, or possibly even  Mick Jagger, who supplies backing vocals here. Somebody thought #11 was American Woman.

You're So Vain is correct :)

As for the other, no, Sister Morphine had it identified correctly.

#21 I knew there was something VERY familiar about that one. Finally popped into my head.. what became the theme of the US hostages in Iran late 70s/early 80's ... how many times did we hear 'I'm really still in prison, and my love she holds the key'. Yep, it's 'Tie a Yellow Ribbon', by Tony Orlando and Dawn (for chilling prisms etc;)
