Now see, I figured "Little Deuce Coupe" by the Beach Boys was the obvious answer. But that's why this game is fun. It takes you in unexpected directions. from "Wild Love" by Joy Lynn White If you thought Natalie from the Dixie Chicks had a totally unique vocal style, listen to Joy Lynn and you'll know where it came from. She was a huge influence on the Chicks. www.mofito.com/music-videos/joy-lynn-white/4780059-wild-love.htmWe're gonna party till the sun comes up I'll ride you in my hot PINK pickup truck You've got other plans, but you're just out of luck 'Cause you can't escape my WILD love next: pink

Little Deuce Coupe is what I was thinking of when I picked that word. Pink Ladies Pledge in Grease II: To act cool, to look cool and to be cool, till death do us part, Think Pink! ... (It was sung as part of the opening song 'Back to School Again' Next: Part

The Beach Boys' songs have always, even when I was little, made me cringe and grit my teeth. Their sound is like nails on a chalkboard to me.
from "Karma" by Sevendust
I may have made some mistakes That cost me more than my pride Somewhere along the way That part of me finally died That part of me never tried Some part of me still alive Here in the bed that I made Can't sleep cause my conscience Keeps me awake - Keeps me awake It's coming! No running away!
next word: cost

I have always been an Beach Boys fan, Gams, though I can see how the nasality could get on your nerves. The summer vibe is just really infectious for me. And some of their tunes, like "Don't Worry Baby", are beautiful ear candy.

I was really tempted to go with Pretty Woman but everyone else keeps choosing songs where the target word isn't in the title so, as Kat pointed out, I return to the Beatles...
Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da ~The Beatles (again - surprise surprise)
Happy ever after in the market place... Desmond lets the children lend a hand... Molly stays at home and does her pretty face... And in the evening she still sings it with the band... Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, brah!... Lala how the life goes on... Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, brah!... Lala how the life goes on.
Next: Evening

I know most people view them as fun songs, but you're right, Siren - it's that high-pitched whine that gets to me.
And the first thing that popped into my head for the word "evening" was one of my favorites, "An Evening With El Diablo" by Chevelle....but though it's in the title, the target word isn't in the lyrics.
Then I thought "In the Evening" by Led Zeppelin. Don't care for that one very much though, so I ended up choosing another from Zeppelin. Strange how one song leads to another - sometimes they just pop into your head though you haven't listened to them in years.
from "Dancing Days" by Led Zeppelin
Dancing days are here again, As the summer evenings grow. I got my flower, I got my power, I got a woman who knows.
next word: flower

Kinda cheating on this one too, because last time you picked "glove" it took me days to think of something, and it was only by chance I heard this one:
from "Spookshow Baby" by Rob Zombie
Bright glove, mad love A movin' all over you, yeah Psycho man, yes I can Do it all over for you, yeah
next word: mad
(My brother went to see Rob in concert Friday night; I wonder how that went.)

I picked "glove" before?? I don't remember doing that! Sorry. Limited imagination I guess.
