Leading on from first records you bought, songs that make you cry, songs that make you dance etc. How about a game of guess the title of a song and the singer, from a single line of lyrics? try not to Google, but guess it, more fun.Whoever is correct first, does the next one.

So, mine is
There she was, just a walkin' down the street.........

somebody folky I think like Joni Mitchell?

Indinana Mon 09-Nov-15 23:10:02

Yep, spot on Wilma smile

WilmaKnickersfit Mon 09-Nov-15 23:12:02

I think the version I know is by Judy Collins or somebody like that. Beautiful voice, better than Joni Mitchell imo.

Indinana Mon 09-Nov-15 23:13:39

Have to agree with you there. Neil Diamond did a cover of it as well. which was typically Neil-Diamondy. Quite good, though.

WilmaKnickersfit Mon 09-Nov-15 23:17:04

Joni Mitchell was a lucky guess - just realised I was thinking about Joan Baez! blush

WilmaKnickersfit Mon 09-Nov-15 23:18:36

Must check out the Neil Diamond version. Here's one until wot comes back
