Driving Game (Part 23)
1Original Explanation:
Basic Rules: Follow the posted music video with a different song, band, or musician tied directly to the previous post.
Example: I post Michael Jackson - Smooth Criminal.
You could then post Michael Bolton, Jackson Browne, Outcast - Ms. Jackson, Alien Ant Farm - Smooth Criminal, Fun Lovin Criminals…
Create a new comment for your submission and leave replies just to talk about the comment’s connection or validity.
You can veto if you don’t agree that there’s a connection. In that case, you can post your own connection to the previous song or @ the person you’re vetoing and tell them they need to make the connection clear or replace it. No hard feelings, either way, we’re just having fun sharing music. Note: If someone has already made a new connection to the song you want to veto, you missed your chance and the song stands. You can still let the person know where you found the problem and maybe they can clear things up.

@ircon96 Well played. I was very close to using their track “Make America Great Again” but I should probably do my best to be neutral since I do have to help maintain some form of order around here.
@ExtraMedium Yeah, it was a close call, they’re both so sadly apropos at the moment! But, hey, don’t hesitate to make a statement when inspiration strikes, there’s never been a better time for it, it seems.
/youtube Tom Jones - What’s New Pussycat?
/youtube Taylor Swift - Nothing New
/youtube James Taylor : Mud Slide Slim
I Remember You - Slim Whitman
For you Mom & Dad, miss you!
/youtube Alan Jackson - Remember When
For MY Mom and Dad…I used this as one of the tracks for their 50th anniversary video .
Miss you both…more and more every day.
@llangley Your comment made me realize this coming Sunday would have been their 60th anniversary, so maybe that’s why I’m thinking about them so much lately…? (My mom passed a few years before their 50th, so we never got to celebrate that, unfortunately.) You’re right about time passing making the feeling even more intense, i can really empathize!
The Shangri-Las - Remember (walking in the sand)
@jessimakars This is a repeat from Part 16. (only know because I posted it) but you could do the Aerosmith version.
@jessimakars Nope, I’m wrong, januarymick posted the Aerosmith version as a follow-up to mine.
@ExtraMedium good eye, this is the first one I’ve looked at our joined in. Perhaps I need to review the previous ones.
@jessimakars Welcome! There’s a Cheat Sheet linked in the OP so you can always do a quick search of posts by name to see if anyone has used it first.
I hope you enjoy the game!

Shin --> jaw (both body parts)… It might be a stretch, but i love this damn song even though it’s been stuck in my head forever!

@Kyeh
sorry… I’m at work and it has been busy!
@chienfou Oh, I just wanted to let you know I put up this song. Sorry you’re getting slammed - I hope things quiet down soon.

@Kyeh how’d you do that without the “/YouTube”?
@llangley I went to youtube, copied the link and then just pasted it here and added the heading. A little more time consuming, but I wanted to post a specific video, not just whatever youtube decided to give me.
@Kyeh got it, thanks! I’m way too lazy to do all of that
@llangley I spend way too much time on nonsense like this.
@Kyeh
and we thank you for your diligence!

@chienfou That’s fantastic - I love it!
@Kyeh
Yeah, I love that song. They used that piece in Shall We Dance with Richard Gere.
@chienfou I’d never heard of them! Their sound is kind of like Sicilian music, which I first heard in the Montalbano TV series.
@Kyeh
they are based in Paris…
@chienfou I saw that! I looked them up to find out more about them.
