It is wonderful (and sometimes very sad) how songs bring back memories so clearly and stir the emotions. I have several that do that which can still make me cry when I hear them. The one listed below is not one of them!!!!She's About a Mover - The Sir Douglas Quartet (and whatever happened to them?)

We all know the names of some of our favorite songs and I saw this cute game elsewhere on goodreads.
This is similar to some of our games. Simply use one word (or portion of that word or subset) from the previous song to name the title of a new one.
For example:
A posts: It's a Beautiful Day
B posts: Beautiful and Blue
C posts: The Blue Danube Waltz
So here is the first one:
Waltzing Matilda
An informational video on the song:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INdjRC...
Note: Try to add a video or audio of the song. There are plenty on youtube. It makes it that much more fun for everyone.
===========================================
Mikey B so based upon the rules above - you have to look at the previous song which was posted by JIll - Where or When and the rules state that: Simply use one word (or portion of that word or subset) from the previous song to name the title of a new one.
So a song we could post here would be:
When I Look at You - Miley Cyrus
Because When was one of the words in the previous song. You bold the song and add the song itself if you can find it on youtube:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wxOVn...
So folks the last song is When I Look at You
When a Man Loves a Woman - Percy Sledgehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQh112...
Bette Midler
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14YnTY... (with photo montage of classic film couples)
(Naomi......do I get the feeling that you really like Bob Dylan??????)More Love - Kim Carnes
