Originally published in “The Sound and the Fury” on 06/08/12, minimally revised with little extra flair for this post. Only one entry was completely deleted, with a new one inserted, and the new song should be easy to spot for those of you who remember a certain comment conversation on a previous post. Was that a challenge for you to take a guess? Of course it is. And, GO.
Story behind the photo: This is a close-up of a pillow I stumbled across in Bed Bath & Beyond. I thought the other-worldly texture would be fun for this post.

I liked this posts for several reasons one of which being I actually recognised many of the songs! By George, I think I’m making progress 🙂 Thanks Brian, to you and your chuckle making abilities 🙂

Good to hear you enjoyed it, and that you’re making progress with the odd offerings here at Bonnywood. (Another entry, admittedly weak and I had to jiggle with your name a bit: Phil Ryans – “In with Flair Tonight”…)

“I liked this posts…” I polo guise for my poor English. (My polo guise has been let loose again, damn those spell check japsters) sometimes I deserve little more than a slap and a Chevy Chase monologue and yet you treat me with warmth and a lullaby. Thank you, Brian 🙂

You shouldn’t have started this…Like OMG really. The list is endless. Robin Trower – Another long solo in E before the sighs of relief at the bridge. Pat Benatar – This was my one best shot. I must stop now. I mean I like Robin and Pat. What about Boston – Don’t look back or you’ll figure out we only really wrote one song, ever? Steely Dan? Don’t even go there…Thanks for the trigger. I can amuse myself all day with this one, killing myself softly with your words.

Great examples. It can get addictive quite easily. I’ve already started a list for Volume II, and I’m letting you know right now that I’m stealing your Boston entry… 😉

These are glorious! Especially loved Van Morrison’s — I swear it’s the only song of his Pandora will play.

Poor Van. He just doesn’t get the respect he deserves, with his popularity Two Below Honey Boo Boo…

You’re welcome. And seeing you pop up in the comments makes me wonder if I should do a list of songs that sound erotic but really aren’t. Hmm…
