The "What Song Does That Line Comes From" Game

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Hi Jon and Marian, Here's another line......
I Will Get Them Wrapped In Cellophane.

That's while your having your Champagne Shower

[john]

no, i just can't get this one at all, i hate to admit

[diane]

The only song I can find which mentions a champagne shower is Elton Johns 'Look Ma No Hands'... but there isn't a mention of cellophane

[paul jh]

This game only features Matt Monro-recorded songs. And I don't think that Matt Monro ever recorded an Elton John song. However, if he did, he would certainly sing them better than Elton John. [Sorry, Elton John fans: he's another one who's highly overrated; 15% of his output is fine (Your Song, Levon, Someone Saved My Life Tonight, Philadelphia Freedom, Blue Eyes, Sacrifice, Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me, Something About The Way You Look Tonight), but the rest is rubbish.]

Hi Lena and Harry--looks like we are all still struggling

That's what happens when you don't read things through!! it's a hard one though and if you people don't know it I've no chance!

Hi Diane--these games all have slightly different rules, which we try to stick to---but I have been known to think I am on the "verse" game when we are on the "line"game. It is not difficult to confuse me

However, if you can think of a game yourself, you can make your own rules, which we will have to stick to!!

GOT IT AT LONG LAST, LENA AND HARRY GOING PLACES
NOW I WILL HAVE TO THINK OF A DIFFICULT ONE FOR YOU, HOW ABOUT

IN THE LONG SAD HEARTACHES AHEAD

PROBABLY NOT THAT DIFFICULT ACTUALLY

[diane]

Is it " Leave me now"?

[john]

i knew it was far too easy, what about
i,ve tried many times

[diane]

I don't know that one but here's another to go with yours....

I’ll sing her a song,

I'm sure Lena and Harry will get them both.

[Lena & Harry Smith]

So John and Diane, we've got two on the go. Ok Got to think about these.

[mariana44]

Hi--John and Diane are making it really tough---just 9 words and 2 songs!!

But funnily enough , there is something in the back of my brain, that makes me think I know these lines.--Or maybe not !!!

Marian

[diane]

This was a Country Pastiche song recorded in 1959....is that any help?

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Hi Diane, YES, we think it's Bound For Texas, it was so familiar, was driving us nuts. So is John's one.
So, perhaps we'll leave another one for now and concentrate on Johns one, because we reckon this line could be a tough en
