Thanks for playing!!

Syanne 1) I was dreaming of your tiger skin Thinking of You - Harlequin

2) Maybe we could make eyes after the show this group was a trio and were named after the bassist/lead singer...also a popular expression but backwards...confused? Heheeee..the song is about a guy being naughty... Pretty Bad Boy - Goddo

3) I can feel ya, feel ya comin' for me, now can you feel me too? The band is named after a bowling term...the song is from their second album "Line Of Fire" Feel It (feel my body) - Headpins

Gambo 4) It's what she said. It's in my head. Tokyo Rose - Idle Eyes

JC 10) It affects YOU in the most peculiar way It Doesn't Really Matter - Platinum Blonde

11) Colours of love. Things that we live for. There's 2 colours in the title of the song and the band is named after what one would use to bind bales (c'mon you farmers!! lol)...the colours are what you'd be if you got beaten up... Black and Blue - Haywire

Sorry JC....although you do have the band for another one of the questions.....(Toronto is not in British Columbia..it's in Ontario)

BTW, IMHO Your Daddy Don't Know is a HUGE ripoff of Jessie's Girl by Rick Springfield....same chord progression and even in the same key! Why they weren't sued is beyond me....
