Default New Game -- Name that Artist

Now that we're back into relax mode for a bit, thought I'd start a new game that I've found to be rather fun.

So, guess the artist or band and THEN post your lyrics right below your guess.

BTW, googling the lyrics is cheating. :cop:

This is the one that has been stuck in my head for the last TWO days.


In the white room
With black curtains
Near the station

That one shouldn't be too hard.

Cream

Blackroof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings.
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes.
Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment.

Ah, one of my fave performers. Love, love, LOVE Clapton!

Not sure about your second one. Gotta think about it.

Won't post a new lyric until your other artist is named.

I guess grn just wanted to answer. Thats Ok, try this one, real easy

Early in the evening just about supper time,
Over by the courthouse they are starting to unwind.
Four kids on the corner trying to bring you up.
Willy picks a tune out and blows it on the harp.

I think that may have been the Dixie Chicks. Although someone else may have done it as well. Here is one from the greatest group of all.

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith

Yes to the Chicks. And you can't beat The Stones! We gotta start making these harder!

Try this one:

You're talking it all sounds fair
You promise your love how much you care
I'm still listening and still unsure
Your actions are lacking, nothing is clear

Boy Red

That is a tough one. I asked everyone here, wife, kids, cats, UPS guy making a delivery, tried to catch the garbage truck, and no one knows. My daughter google'd it and now she knows but refuses to tell. Can you give us a hint?

Is the Stones sone Sympathy for the Devil? My all time favorite group. I love Mick!

How about:

Realms of bliss
Realms of light
Some are born to sweet delight
Some are born to sweet delight

Well so far there has been folk, rock, country, and I got one for jazz, but need to solve Red's first. And I think I got it. Just took everyone out to some vineyards and did a few wine tastings. Asked each place we went about her lyrics. Well when I mentioned German, someone said "of course, it's Berlin. And Sarah said "you got it". Personally I never would have, but that's what help is for. So is that right?
