Subject: Same-Word Songs
Written By: Doc Brown on 08/10/04 at 3:06 pm
OK, here's a game I've often played in the car on trips. A song comes on the radio, we pick one word out of the title, and try to come up with as many other songs as we can with the same word in it. Gets a little tricky after a half-dozen or so songs are listed, but it's kinda fun. I'll start with the first word we played with.
The word is:
RAIN
"Red Rain", Peter Gabriel
"Here Comes The Rain Again", the Eurythmics
"Fire & Rain", James Taylor
"I Wish it Would Rain Down", Phil Collins
"Shadows In The Rain", The Police
"Walking In The Rain", Orange Juice Jones
"Kiss The Rain", Billie Myers
"I Love A Rainy Night", Eddie Rabbit
"November Rain", Guns N'Roses
"Rain", Jan Hammer (on the MV Complete Collection)
"Rain On The Scarecrow", John Cougar Mellencamp
"Who'll Stop The Rain?", C.C.R.
"Purple Rain", Prince
"Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head", B.J. Thomas
"After The Rain Has Fallen", Sting
OK, That's 15 there, can anyone think of others? Maybe even more than 15? Give us the song title & artist. When Page 1, is filled, I'll see who came up with the most answers, and they'll pick a new word for Page 2. Good luck!
Your Pal,
Doc

Okay...
"Rain" by Madonna
"Rain Rain Go Away" by Bobby Vinton
"Laughter In The Rain" by Neil Sedaka
That's all I can think of.
Does it have to be the exact word "rain" or can it be a form of the word, like "Raindrops" or "Rainy Day People" or anything like that?
