Subject: Sun Songs (1 remaining, No Limit)

Written By: Andrew on 08/27/02 at 03:12 p.m.

I decided a rain quiz should be complemented with a sun quiz, so, here it is. All titles contain the word sun or sun as part of a larger word. Enjoy!:) Initial limit: 5  

As usual, my source is my sometimes-faulty memory, so let me know of any errors.

1. We've realized there's only one thing we can do Sun City - Artists United Against Apartheid - My Name Is Kenny
2. I'll be with you darling soon Sunshine Of Your Love - Cream - chris
3. I'd sing a song to make you feel this way Sunshine On My Shoulders - John Denver - CeramicsFanatic
4. 'Cause I made my mind up you're going to be mine Sunshine Superman - Donovan - Indy Gent
5. He can't even run his own life Sunshine - Jonathan Edwards - Indy Gent
6. Brighter than a lucky penny when you're near Sunshine, Lollipops, and Rainbows - Lesley Gore - Indy Gent
7. She drive away the darkness everyday Sun Arise - Rolf Harris - philbo baggins
8. You smiled at me and really eased the pain Sunny - Bobby Hebb - crazydon
9. Dunn and Bradstreet, Vanity Fair, who wears what, how much and who's been where Come To The Sunshine - Harpers Bizarre - Indy Gent
10. I'm not the same since she has come my way Summer Sun - Jamestown Massacre - Gambo
11. The taxman's taken all my dough Sunny Afternoon - Kinks - chris
12. So I missed a million miles of fun Steal My Sunshine - Len - chris
13. In a room where you do what you don't confess Sundown - Gordon Lightfoot - alex p keaton
14. Look around, look around, around again. Look around, look around, around again.
15. Lettuce and ham or maybe crumpets and jam Sunday For Tea - Peter and Gordon - alex p keaton
16. We lit a fire and watched it grow higher Sunshine Girl - Parade - Gambo
17. I've got no mind to worry Lazy Sunday - Small Faces - FBVP
18. Won't you come and wash away the rain Black Hole Sun - Soundgarden - chris
19. The tears are always clouding your eyes when you're without love The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine (Anymore) - Walker Brothers
20. You are the apple of my eye, forever you'll stay in my heart You Are The Sunshine Of My Life - Stevie Wonder - alex p keaton

HINTS
1. A collaboration of several artists, whose name identifies the entity they were against
10. The group's only "hit" didn't reach anywhere near the Top 40... the band's named after an event which was photographed by Erastus Field (look him up)
14. A minor hit for a group better know for their song in which the gilled creatures refuse to nibble

ANOTHER HINT
14. In other words, in the band's biggest hit, "...the fish won't bite...".

Alice Cooper or Rolf Harris? There's a varied selection for you! I was unaware of an Alice Cooper cover, it doesn't seem the sort of song he'd sing. Has he mangled it horribly, or does it stay reasonably close to Harris's version?

Yes indeedy:) Van Dyke Parks and Bob Dylan both have my same basic listening habits, with exceptions. I like hearing them perform their songs, but like it even more when someone else performs them;)

Incredibly close, but wrong enough that I feel an adjustment is needed. Reread this excerpt from the hint and you'll know why:
10. The band's named after an event which was photographed by Erastus Field

Well... changed my mind. I'm reversing my decision on the assumption that this was a typographical error, in effect just a mistake, and we all make plenty...:)

Woops!  I should have written "'Summer Sun' by Jamestown Massacre."

My turn to be precise:  Wasn't Erastus Field a painter and not a photographer?

Most certainly was, didn't even realize I'd written it incorrectly, my mistake ... I know very little about photography, I doubt there'll ever be a time I'm able to make a reference to it as a hint. I'll amend that next time I have some spare moments and bother to log in.

Is number 14 by the Ramones?  If it is, the only Sun Song I can think of is "California Sun."

Nope, sorry, I didn't have a Ramones song in mind, although if they covered "California Sun", and I know they covered "Indian Giver", they could have covered the song referenced in the hint too...
