Driving Game (Part 87)
3Welcome 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.

This thread picks up with:
Regina Spektor - You’ve Got Time
@ExtraMedium I was amazed that people could still get in there to post anything.
@Kyeh Yeah, sorry for the long delay. Feel free to @ me any time it gets to be too slow. Thanks.
/youtube Carol King - You’ve Got a Friend
The song’s been played several times before, but not this version by the artist who wrote it!
Manchester Orchestra - I’ve Got Friends
Melissa Manchester- Whenever I Call You Friend
@steeltoesenator Hey, this is a two-fer!
Love this song, but I’d never heard Melissa’s version before. Pretty!
Weekend Friends - What You Like
Beastie Boys - So What’Cha Want
Bonnie Raitt - What Do You Want The Boy To Do?
Bonnie Tyler - It’s a Heartache
@ircon96 great song
@railek I was shocked that this was only the 2nd Bonnie Tyler song in the game, so i wanted to contribute to rectifying that!
Tyler Childers - Charleston Girl
Memphis May Fire - Noth Atlantic vs North Carolina
I know Charleston is in the other Carolina, but I figure it’s close enough?
@metaphore not sure, but Tyler is a Kentucky/West Virginia boy and may be referring to Charleston in WV. At least that’s what my WV friends and fam think. Still, close enough.
@metaphore @steeltoesenator
fixed the spelling for the cheat sheet.…
@chienfou I’m surprised there’s been so few times I’ve fucked up spelling and you don’t need to fix it for me like every single part.
Bob Dylan - Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again
Worriers - Chicago Style Pizza is Terrible
I’m gonna call city names a close enough link, but feel free to veto.
@metaphore
thanks for clarifying right up front!
Monty Python - I’m So Worried
Senses Fail - Snake Bite
Pixies - Snakes
Whitesnake - Child of Babylon
/youtube Alan Parson Project - Snake Eyes
Bruce Springsteen - Roll of the Dice
Bruce Hornsby - Fields of Gray
Macy Gray - Time of My Life
Camper Van Beethoven - Life Is Grand
/youtube flipper - life
One Direction - Story of My Life
Sorry i had to be the one to ruin the 1D-free streak in the game, but i consider this to be their one truly decent–dare i say good–song.
@ircon96 I won’t forgive you, but I also can’t veto this one so here we are.
Taylor Swift - The Story of Us
James Taylor - Fire and Rain
@januarymick James Taylor has appeared ten times over the course of this game but, surprisingly to me, this is the first time Fire and Rain has been used.
/youtube Tina Turner - I Can’t Stand The Rain
@Kyeh well done with the Tina Turner connection…RIP to this Queen
Tom Waits - Rain Dogs
Pink Floyd - Dogs
Pet Shop Boys - I Want A Dog
Three Dog Night - Shambala
One of my all-time favorites, I’m glad i finally got to play it!
3 Doors Down - Not Enough
Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers - Good Enough
@januarymick quite possibly my favorite Petty song…and Mike Campbell’s guitar playing on this is simply amazing.
/youtube barbra Streisand & donna summer - enough is enough
Donna the Buffalo - Family Picture
/youtube Buffalo Springfield - Kind Woman
I checked the sheet this time but I can’t believe it’s never been used so. Veto if I’m still wrong lol
/youtube long cool woman in a black dress
@unksol Nope, you’re right! It is kind of surprising it hasn’t shown up already.
But @chienfou would like you to format your heading like this, for ease of compilation in the Cheat Sheet:
The Hollies - Long Cool Woman In a Black Dress
(i.e. Artist - Title)
@unksol I’ve always liked this song.
@unksol veto fo not following standards.
To late to edit but seriously I know how much easier it is to script to a standard. It was too late to edit when I remembered.
Can I veto myself or is that worse lol. Someone can claim it correctly ok. I guess not since we have a follow on.
@chienfou my apologies for the monkey wrench… Standards are good
@chienfou @unksol No! I put the properly formatted heading in my comment and he can lift it from there. No veto and it’s a great song. Play on!
@Kyeh @unksol
thanks for the help. I’m working on the cheat sheet at this time.
Black Dresses- Angel Hair
Bonnie Raitt - Angel From Montgomery
With respect to John Prine, whose original version has already been posted, RIP. Bonnie took this to the next level & beyond!
/youtube Alabama - Angels amoung Us
@unksol
Spelling fixed for cheat sheet
@chienfou what can I say. I’m a fuck up some days
@unksol
no problem… only mention it so if someone searches for the correct spelling (which by all rights they should) they will understand why the name isn’t the same on the post.
Everlast - Angel
Boz Scaggs - Angel Lady (Come Just In Time)
/youtube Lady A - You Look Good
Prince - U Got The Look
ABC - The Look of Love
Gram Parsons & Emmylou Harris - Love Hurts
I know the Nazareth version of this song has been posted. This one is my favorite though.

The Kinks - All Day and All of the Night
/youtube bryan ferry - day for night
/youtube Diana Krall - Night And Day

/youtube Guster - One Man Wrecking Machine
@steeltoesenator
I was tempted tocall veto.

The Cult - Love Removal Machine
Florence + the Machine - Sky Full of Song
Crack the Sky - From The Greenhouse
/youtube George Strait - Blue Clear Sky
Allman Brothers - Blue Sky
