Subject: Overage/Underage - Now just over

Written By: philbo_baggins on 07/09/03 at 04:47 a.m.

Usual sort of fare: these songs have a too old/too young kind of context.  Limit of three again, I guess.

Enjoy ;-)

Clues in green

1. He once owned a Harley Davidson and a Triumph Bonneville.
  Counted his friends in burned-out spark plugs
  and prays that he always will.
  Too Old to Rock 'n' Roll: Too Young to Die - Jethro Tull. Gambo
2. At least that's what they tell us
  It's in their book of rules
  Too Young - Elton John IndyGent
3. We could surf the board
  Surf the net, yeah
Wouldn't dream of actually listening to this egomaniac tosspot... I got the lyrics of this one by searching
  Not Too Young Not Too Old - Aaron Carter Bobo
4. Now my head is spinning baby,
  Just like a ferris wheel
  Young enough to cry- Triumph Gambo
5. Too young to be your mother's pet
  The Inbetweenies - The Goodies Paul_UK
6. But I ain't too young to worry And I ain't too old to cry
  Ride On -AC/DC Gamblefish
7. Much too young to focus
  But too old to see
  Much more my sort of music... Cinderella might have liked this one
  Prince Charming - Metallica Bobo
8. Too old to scold and too young to choose
  Another one from my favourite 4wd rock chick
  I May Be Too Young (though presumably not anymore) - Suzi Quattro Bobo
9. He says his body's too old for working
  I say his body's too young to look like his
  Fast Car - Tracy Chapman   cs
10.Up on the A1 by Scotch Corner
  just like it used to be.
  Too Old to Rock 'n' Roll: Too Young to Die - Jethro Tull. (OK, I know that's twice, but I like the song ;-) Gambo

6. Ride On...AC/DC

OK, number 4 is "Young Enough to Cry" by Triumph.  Oh, wait a second, you were giving me a hint.  Isn't number 1 also a line from the same Jethro Tull song as number 10?

OK, some clues posted...

Hey, half and half...

3. Not Too Young Not Too Old - Aaron Carter ft. Nick Carter

I can hear you all asking me now whether or not I want to end world famine... anyhoo...

possibly the world's most stupid band in at 7, they being the Napster destroyers themselves, Metallica, with Prince Charming.

As for number 8, it looks distinctively like "I May Be Too Young", by Suzi Quatro.

Well done, Bobo!  100%

(though I hope for your sake that the Aaron Carter recognition was using google rather than ears ;-))
