Hey, Linda Ronstadt is one of my favorite singers of all time. Lay off. Mine too...only it was this stuff I like a little better. |

Hey, Linda Ronstadt is one of my favorite singers of all time. Lay off. I still like that song ("Long, Long Time" that is), but it's from my Heartbreak Hotel period, so it opens old wounds. As to Linda...she's great. I still own an 8-track of her "Simple Dreams" album.  |

Yep, I still own "Heart Like A Wheel" and "Prisoner In Disguise". And her voice singing "Blue Bayou" is still one of the ten best I can remember.

Uh yeah. Only our afternoon delight had a certain connotation during my HS years. Is this what you had in mind? Bick, in the parking lot of LAHS, circa 1976..... Actually afternoon delight had a different meaning at CDM's back parking lot..., here I am w/ my "buds" caught on cam......  enjoying some afternoon delight.....  |

Sorry SK80, that song would never remind me of being in a van with a couple dudes. I guess it was a little different for us at Lakewood HS.
*************************
Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight
Gonna grab some afternoon delight
My motto's always been 'when it's right, it's right'
Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night?
When everything's a little clearer in the light of day
And we know the night is always gonna be there any way
Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite
Looking forward to a little afternoon delight
Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes the sparks ingite
And the thought of lovin' you is getting so exciting
Sky rockets in flight

I find it hard to believe that a ratty old orange and yellow VW bus was allowed anywhere in the Corona del Mar city limits.

Credo just dropped a notch on my I’m “curious” who this guy really is... won’t define the scale or meter but ya’ll know what I mean...  I could find some worse songs than I've already proposed. Throw one out yourself and get some skin in the game.  It's kinda hard notarially embarrassed by any song that I chose to like... don't care if ya'll or anyone don't know good music when they hear it... And MDDad no shame needed.., Archies Rule !! Call me what you want.., bring it on....... |

And MDDad no shame needed.., Archies Rule !! Well, I wouldn't go that far. But here's an interesting trivia fact. 1969 may have been the only time when the #1 song of the year was sung by a band that didn't exist. |

And the thought of lovin' you is getting so excitingSky rockets in flight Are those the correct lyrics? I always thought it was "and the thought of rubbing you is getting so exciting." EDIT: I was right! It IS "rubbing." www.chordie.com/chord.pere/chordiearchive.chordie.com/chord.pere/tabfu.thudspace.net/s/starland_vocal_band/afternoon_delight.pro |
