Driving Game (Part 99)
2Welcome 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.

well looky there… the cheat sheet is (finally) UTD!
Just posted 97 and 98
(Thanks for your patience)
Me First And The Gimme Gimmes - Country Roads
@chienfou You’re the keeper of the cheat sheet. Surely you had to know John Denver was a dupe! I’ve got your back with an edit though.
@ExtraMedium
I checked too, honest… turns out I got screwed by that pesky little comma thing in there!
(Thanks for bailing my ass out!)
@chienfou @ExtraMedium
Hah, I wondered about that … but not enough to check.

@mossygreen
Merci
@chienfou De rien, mon vieux
@mossygreen
not exactly the French T Rex though!
@chienfou Yes, but Micky Finn was in his band in the '70’s, so there is a connection!
@mossygreen
that’s too funny!
/youtube john fred & his playboy band - judy in disguise (with glasses)
Judy Collins - Both Sides Now
/youtube Fleetwood Mac - Rhiannon
Has this seriously not been played yet?! I looked several times with several iterations of artist-title but I still feel like it must be a dupe!
@Kyeh
Wow! You are right! Closest was one of Rhiannon Giddens’ songs YOU played in part 84…
Michael Franti & Spearhead - The Sound of Sunshine
The Verve Pipe - The Freshmen
Because after all… what’s a hookah but a water pipe!

That was a TIL moment for me too!
@chienfou Oh, how weird!
@chienfou Hey, I’ve been to Caernarfon Castle!
@Kyeh
that’s cool. Never been to Wales, but hope to get there some day (and when I do I plan to bring a surplus of vowels since they seem to be lacking there!) I really want to go to Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch even if I can’t pronounce it!
@chienfou Unlike in French where you can have words with no consonants! Oui, eau.
I loved Wales.
