Subject: The quiz for making new "Friends" - Well met

Written By: JustPassingThrough on 01/19/03 at 08:37 p.m.

My first shot at this - all the titles have "Friend" or "Friends" in there.  Let's limit it to two each at first:

1. "Memories linger on" FBVP Can We Still Be Friends - Todd Rungren

2. "I saw you walking underneath the stars" Indy Hello Old Friend - Eric Clapton

3. "We talk so much s*** behind each other's backs" 80sCL How Many Friends* - The Who
An obscure clue for an obscure lyric.  The writer of this song isn't making too many friends at the moment.
*Sadly, he's about to find out.

4. "Confide... 'cause I'll be on your side" Indy My Friends - Red Hot Chilli Peppers

5. "Lend me your ears" Billy A Little Help From My Friends - The Beatles

6. "A smile relieves a heart that grieves" Indy Waiting On A Friend - The Rolling Stones

7. "Years may come and go" Gwen You're A Friend Of Mine - Clarence Clemons & Jackson Browne

8. "trade a smile with someone who's blue" Indy Friends - Led Zeppelin

9. "Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall" Billy You've Got A Friend - James Taylor (or Carole King)

10. "I'm happy at home" Gwen You're My Best Friend - Queen

11. "How terribly strange to be seventy" Hitchy Old Friends - Simon & Garfunkel

12. "You've got nuclear boots" Kenny My Best Friend's Girl - The Cars

Correct - although I have to stand firm in my contention that the correct title of No 5 is "A Little Help From My Friends"  ;)
