Country Sunshine - Dottie West

"You want it all but you can't have it. It's in your face but you can't grab it."

[Saddle Bronc 124]

The Real Thing -- Faith No More

Find my place in the golden sun,

Sittin' on the bank of the Okeechobee,

Watchin' that river run

(hint: full song, as MP-3, has been downloadable from artist's website for almost 2 years)

wildflower by lisa brockop

I'd like to have babies with you

Like to have maybe two, join a carpool and

Sing the kids to bed, they can

Have your coloring and

My movie rental addiction

Minuet -- Idina Menzel

They placed a wreath upon his door,

Soon they'll carry him away

Well, I guess it can't if you actually listen to Johnny Cash!

He Stopped Loving Her Today

"I leaned my back up against an oak thinking that he was a trusty tree."

Two answers there:

• Oh, Waly, Waly -- Sarah Brightman
  
• The Water is Wide
  

You will fall, you will stumble,

Before you reach your stride.

Mother Earth will catch you,

Don't be afraid to try.

(btw jenn, you missed the artist -- George Jones)

But Johnny Cash DID sing that song. It may have been written by George Jones....

Sarah Brightman did not write O Waly Waly, nor was she the first to perform it. But you are correct that she did do a rendition of it, so that's acceptable.

(Not a rendition heard by many country fans; it's associated with Jones, who wrote it and made it the top country hit for 1982 and 1983, running)

(From the front end, I think one's supposed to guess the performer rather than the writer--other than the coincidental cases; you wanna take a guess at the last quote?).

I've been caught! I definitely googled that one. Saw two names: Johnny Cash and George Jones. I've never heard of George Jones....

Wish I could, but I have no idea!

(hint: male trio, known by initials, mid-late 1980's; FYI, Jones was married to Tammy Wynette from 1965-1975; they were oft referred in CMT/TNN commercials as "President and First Lady of Country")

(reprising the quote)
