Driving Game (Part 84)
4Welcome to the Meh Forum Driving Game!

Basic Rules
Connect a new song to the previously played song by name, musician, musical group, or concept. Try to use the format “Artist - Song Title” when possible. Avoid repeats, and do not make two plays back to back.
To avoid repeating past songs, it’s best to always do a quick search of the current thread as well as checking in the official Driving Game Cheat Sheet before making your play.

Starting up from:
John Michael Montgomery - I Love The Way You Love Me
WhooHoo… Got the cheat sheet UTD before any new posts for a change!
Now complete thru part 83.
Play on!
@chienfou Wow, that’s fast!
@Kyeh
had done most of it already yesterday
Willie Nelson - It’s Not Supposed To Be That Way
Lee Greenwood - Proud To Be An American
@chienfou That’s actually not the official title!
@Kyeh
@Kyeh
I couldn’t remember which was the title so I looked it up…
@chienfou Okay - I’m very familiar with the song but I thought the title was officially G.B.T.U.S.A.
It’s like “Dancing Cheek to Cheek” - I always think of it when I see “Heaven” in a title, but then I’m frustrated to find that it’s not really called “Heaven!”
@chienfou
Technically, @Kyeh is right, though, the official title is GBTUSA (spelled out, of course), so you might want to note that for cheat sheet purposes, at least. It appears that a handful of “journalists” were too lazy to look it up (if you check the references noted in the Wikipedia entry you quoted), but it was never subtitled by that name on any other reference, album cover, Billboard chart, etc., that I’ve noticed.

@chienfou Amazing that this hasn’t been played before!
@Kyeh
yep. my thoughts entirely. Also surprised I wasn’t challenged on the connection
@chienfou Aw, we’ve had language changes before!
@Kyeh
That’s true but since we all pull from different banks of experience I am often surprised by connections i think are obvious that fly over other folks heads…
( like the image in the post As Foretold. I sent that or showed it to several folks and about 50% got it right off the bat. Even ones that I know were familiar with the song and lyrics…)
@chienfou Well, there’ve been some that were pretty far-fetched at times, too. But what kills me is when it’s a word that’s right there and I (or someone else) just don’t see it.
Kind of embarrassing when that happens!
@Kyeh
thank God for that 5 minute edit window! I have made comments then deleted them when I looked again after commenting…
