    hexagram

    I will go ahead I suppose

    I’ll send an s.o.s. to the world
    I’ll send an s.o.s. to the world
    I hope that someone gets my
    I hope that someone gets my
    I hope that someone gets my
    Message in a bottle, yeah
    Message in a bottle, yeah

    A year has passed since I wrote my note
    But I should have known this right from the start
    Only hope can keep me together
    Love can mend your life but
    Love can break your heart
    I’ll send an s.o.s. to the world
    I’ll send an s.o.s. to the world

    Hard one

    I know the song. I think it's called Lonely Boy. Don't remember the artist though.

    Dude! I was expecting you and maybe one or two other fossils might remember it. I really liked it when I was a kid. I'm going to hold out on you on the artist though, so it will drive you crazy for a while. I'll tell you tomorrow.


    Edit: Andrew Gold was his name. You're up Splunge by virtue of getting the name of the song right.

    Well, even though you told us the name, I still don't recognise it. He might have been a one hit wonder.

    Oh well, carrying on:

    I suppose I could collect my books and get on back to school
    Or steal my daddy's cue and make a living out of playing pool
    Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helping hand

    Rod Stewart, "Maggie May" I think is the title.

    Ever notice that Rod looks like a living Dr. Seuss character?

    I'm not familiar with Dr. Seuss, so I wouldn't know.

    But it was correct :thumb:

    Here's an easy one, with a twist...

    Easy, yes. But what's the twist?

    The twist is the name of the song isn't "Teenage Wasteland", although those are the lyrics and that's what everyone calls it.

    Well, I just did a Google search, and even though the first page of results all came back with Teenage Wasteland, the second page showed something else (and I have never heard it called that).

    However, I stand corrected, withdraw my lyrics, and wait for someone else to post the correct answer.

    Note to self: wait for confirmation before posting new lyrics.

    It has popularly been called "Teenage Wasteland" and has been called it on some later Pete Townshend tribute stuff, but the Who have never called it "Teenage Wasteland". It was first released on the album "Who's Next" if you want to look it up.

    It's definitely time for a new hint (or a new set of lyrics).
