Oops, you have Dylan in your header. Sorry.
Good night Ma and all!
Thank you Fatima, for a fun thread!
God Bless!
LOL
Sentimental?
Nah..
We’re gonna feast on lobsters on Valentine’s Day..

YUMMY!
Should have added “Take Good Care of My Baby” by Bobby Vee
And no way should this thread expire without a mention of Sam Kinison’s Tonight Show rendition of “Are You Lonesome Tonight?” (please let that be on YouTube)
Thanks, unique, for the Troops!

Thanks for all you do for our troops.
You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you
You asked me not to call you on the phone
But there's something I'm wanting to tell you
So I wrote it in the words of this song
CHORUS:
I didn't know God made honky tonk angels
I might have known you'd never make a wife
You gave up the only one that ever loved you
And went back to the wild side of life
The glamor of the gay night life has lured you
To the places where the wine and liquor flows
Where you wait to be anybody's baby
And forget the truest love you'll ever know
REPEAT CHORUS
You wouldn't read the letter that I wrote you
You told me not to call you on the phone
But there's something that I've just got to tell you
So I wrote it in the words of this song
CHORUS:
I didn't know God made honky tonk angels
I might have known you'd never make a wife
You gave up the only one that ever loved you
And went back to the wild side of life
The glamor of the gay night life has lured you
To the places where the wine and liquor flow
Where you wait to be anybody's baby
And forgot the truest love you'll ever know
REPEAT CHORUS
As I sit here tonight the jukebox playin'
The tune about the wild side of life
As I listen to the words you are sayin'
It brings memories when I was a trusting wife
It wasn't God who made Honky Tonk angels
As you said in the words of your song
Too many times married men think they're still single
That has caused many a good girl to go wrong
It's a shame that all the blame is on us women
It's not true that only you men feel the same
From the start most every heart that's ever broken
Was because there always was a man to blame
It wasn't God who made Honky Tonk angels
As you said in the words of your song
Too many times married men think they're still single
That has caused many a good girl to go wrong
“Always Something There to Remind Me” is a Hal David/Burt Bachrach song that has been recorded by everybody at one time or another. It’s become a standard. The first recording was by Lou Johnson in the summer of 1964.
Still brings tears to my eyes.

Hi, Fatima.
“50 Ways to Leave Your Lover.”
(Can’t stand the yuppy-ness of it, but still infectious.)
Whoops. That song was already mentioned. How about “You Belong to Me?” (Carly Simon.)
This song was the one I thought of first too. Ah, great minds....
(brings back childhood memories singing this song)
‘Kentucky Rain’ by Elvis
Your Breaking my Heart - Harry Nillson
