Your thin paper wings
Cats are gathering outside your window
And the summer fever’s coming

John Williams / Thudfactor Last week was a little quieter than usual with only 6/10 guessed. I think a few of these were not quite as popular as I wish they were.
- #1 was “Sound of Da Police” by KRS-One. Huge song, just not with my regular audience I suppose.
- #3 was “What You Need” by Galactic, featuring Lyrics Born.
- #4 was “Move on Up” by Curtis Mayfield. Absolutely a desert island song for me.
- #9 was “Heavy Cloud No Rain” by Sting.
I’m going to let y’all get right to it. It’s a bit late in the morning and I need breakfast.
Update: See Glen’s Friday 10
The rules
- Put the song title and artist in the comments below. I do accept anonymous comments.
- I’ll accept cover artists as well.
- But don’t go looking up the lyrics before guessing. That’s cheating.
