Musical monday #129

Two apologies ... First of all I'm sorry for being so late second of all, I'm sorry that it's so short this week. So it you want to add bonuses, add away. Anyway, Elie and I alternate hosting Musical Monday. Check out Musical Monday 128 at Elie's
.
1) Spread your tiny wings and fly away
2) Those soft and fuzzy sweaters
3) Her hands are never cold
4) I have my books and my poetry to protect me;
5) Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love?
6) From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
7) It's the springtime of my life
8) The devil mocks their every step
9) Icicles are in my brain
10) Movin' around, I get in trouble, when I'm feelin' so low and out of my mind

11) Youre an expert in the field, without a doubt
12) You're digging for gold, you're throwing away
13) And the silver splinters fly in the corner of your eye
14) To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal

15) Drove up to Hillside Manor sometime after two a.m.
16) I'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A
17) Bleeding me, going home
18) Bad news on the doorstep


It was nice the way everyone played a role in figuring out Musical Monday #127, first TRN noted that there were a lot of Carole King songs, then Laura identified the first group as Goffin King songs and then Clayton guessed correctly that the second group were also Brill Building song writers.

Will you love me tomorrow? - The Shirelles et al.

Crying in the rain - Everly Brothers et al.
7) You're gonna want me for your girl
One fine day - The Chiffons

Up on the roof - The Drifters et al.

I'm into something good - Herman's Hermits
10) 'cause yesterday you gave-a me your ring
Oh no not my baby - Maxine Brown, Linda Ronstadt

Don't bring me down - The Animals et al.
12) He's got a TV in every room

You make me feel like a natural woman - Aretha Franklin

Blame it on the Bossa Nova - Eydie Gorme

Who put the bomp? - Barry Mann

On Broadway - The Drifters, George Benson

Yes, Yitz, #7 is Simon and Garfunkel and it's not called the rain song. I chose that lyric for irony.
