    What an incredible coincidence. A little too incredible.

    Oh well, you're up, dmc.

    Well, I could have posted something from my lesser known Kansas albums that I also listened to on cassette on Sunday, but I don't want this thread to come to a screeching halt.

    I just threw out a bunch. I don't even have my cassette player/recorder hooked up to my system anymore. I have one vinyl copy of "Audio Visions" and that's all I have left of Kansas.

    Aww shucks, thanks, dmc!

    Now...
    The mist across the window hides the lines
    But nothing hides the colour of the lights that shine
    Electricity so fine
    Look and dry your eyes

    Nice to see someone new in the game, Chandos. Especially when that person is correct. :)

    Thank you, Splunge. ;)

    While the firelight's aglow
    strange shadows in the flames will grow
    till things we've never seen
    will seem familiar

    Hint: A place for diamondback commuters.
    Hint #2: Performed by perhaps San Fransisco's most famous band.
    Hint #3: Title track from the 1977 LP by a band on "a long, strange trip."

    I don't think there are many deadheads on the boards. I recognize the song, but can't think of the title.

    OK. It is the Grateful Dead and the track is "Terrapin Station." It's actually Part 1 of the title track: "Lady With a Fan," based on a poem by Lewis Carroll. The Diamondback Terrapin turtle became one of the band's signature trademarks (one of quite a few).

    It's open, T2.

    All of us have lyrics we can post to stump anyone else (sometimes unintentionally, I've used Grammy award winning songs that have been met with silence here) ... it happens quite often here. Declare yourself victor of round one and post another.

    It wasn't intentional, T2. I just like the words. :) Sorry there aren't any GD fans though. In some instances, the GD lore is as interesting as the music:

    This one should be much easier:

    The song is called Xanadu. The name of the band escapes me - Hurry? Quick? Something like that.

    I was just tired of having every second respose to your lyrics being:
    Rush - [song title]
    or
    [song title] - Rush
    :p
