Name the song and artist

[OmerV]

Don't come knockin' around my door
I don't wanna see your face no more
I got more important things to do
Than spend my time growin' old with you

American Woman - The Guess Whio

American woman The Guess Who

 

[RodeoJake]

Yep, that’s one that’s in my head but buried way in the back.

Here’s another genre change ...

Since you came into my life
It's the same old situation
Empty days and lonely nights
Filled with bitterness and frustration.

Not familiar at all

 

[RodeoJake]

This one should be easy for those of us who watched Saturday morning cartoons in the 60s.

I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me
Love was out to get me
That's the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all of my dreams

Nazareth - Miss Misery...........Probably the best song on the album, IMO.

Didn't they do a song called Hair of the Dog or something like that? I remember lyrics "now you're messin with a, something something .

Yes, and that was the name of the album as well. Also on that album was Love Hurts, probably their biggest hit.

I was born on Olympus,
To my father a son...
I was raised like a demon,
Trained to reign as The One...

I’m lost on both the last two posts.

Very good album overall, but I wouldn’t argue againstMiss Misery being the best.

Here, I'm gonna throw out another chart single (for the folks finding it tough, like myself)

"I've been really tryin', baby
Tryin' to hold back this feeling for so long
And if you feel like I feel, baby
Then, c'mon, oh, c'mon

[...]

We're all sensitive people
With so much to give
Understand me, sugar
Since we've got to be here
Let's live
I love you"

 

[Trouty]

If you guys don't cut it out, I'm gonna start posting Radiohead and Beach House and Arctic Monkeys lyrics

jk

Ya'll are amazing. This thread is tough, tho.

 

[ESisback]

Me too.

How so?

 

[Trouty]

How so?

They didn't know the lyrics, were stumped, if i'm inferring their posts correctly

The first line was all I needed.

See Trouty's post to you above. I have no idea what either of those two songs is.
