Lines from songs that make me think of growing up

What's the matter with the car I'm drivin'...

Only in dreams, we see what it means to reach out our hand...

Groovy groovy jazzy funky...flip fantasia (I never could understand all of the words)

Goodnight you moonlight ladies, and rockabye sweet baby James.

...open up those engines let 'em roar, head off down the highway like a big ol' dinosaur.

STOP for a minute, baby I'm so glad your mine.

I've got half a mind to call her, half a mind to go before I...

You're a little late, I'm already torn

Allison, I know this world is killing you.

I love L.A. background singers: we love it!

2 legit! 2 legit 2 quit!

Look at them girls with the daisy dukes on


I don't know what exactly that says about my childhood and teenage years...but a pan of rice crispy treats for anyone who can name all of the artists.

I love that Billy Joel makes you think of when you were a kid! Me too!

My favorite was always "Uptown Girl".
I think Chris' was "For the Longest Time".

You are awesome.

Hmmm, I don't know who Django Walker is. I guess he and Pat Green must have a lot in common...or at least just a few of the same lyrics.

Nonetheless, I think you definitely win, Bryan.

I could have one without google but I didn't have the chance. Plus, I can tell the memory with almost every one.

You forgot... bow wow wow honk your horn and put on my blue suede shoes and boarded the plane and dancin in the dark

Yeah, I kinda cheated there by using Google. Sorry to steal the thunder from those people who REALLY know these songs!

I only listened to LDS hymns growing up so all my memories are set to "songs of the heart." I guess that is why I am so righteous.
