Subject: J.C.'s Weathered Lyrics Quiz#1(Now concluded)

Written By: Indy Gent on 06/15/02 at 07:49 p.m.

WL1. In the end, the rain comes down. (Blue Sky Mine-Midnight Oil)

CD2. It's like thunder, lightning. (Knock On Wood-Eddie Floyd)

WL3. A bright, bright sun shiny day.(I Can See Clearly Now-Johnny Nash)

FBVP4. Thunder only happens when it's raining.(Dreams-Fleetwood Mac)

FBVP5. Clouds in my coffee.(You're So Vain-Carly Simon)

WL6. We're in for nasty weather. (Burning Down The House-Talking Heads)

FBVP7. But there came an early snow. (Wildfire-Michael Murphey)

SG8. Extra blankets for the cold.(In The Winter-Janis Ian)

LB15 9. In the hot, hot sun.(How Bizarre-OMC)

SB54 10. In the eye of the storm.(America-Neil Diamond)

RnRF 11. It's the lightning, not the thunder.(Jeopardy-The Greg Kihn Band)

FBVP12. When the skies of November turn gloomy (The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald-Gordon Lightfoot)

This quiz is now closed. Thanks for playing, everyone.

All of your answers are correct, Fuss! :) But #2 is still open since you said Ami Stewart instead of the original artist(s).
Also, #6 is not the song I was the song I was thinking of, but it is correct anyway. I'll leave it open too.
