    That's it. Not a huge hit. But it did make the top 40. Underrated song. Or under appreciated. I bought the 45. It wasn't an album track.

    I looked it up but should have probably known it.

    Carrie

    LOL. OK, this one you will have to look up. I'll give you $50 if you know this one off the top of your head. I never heard of the second guy before.

    Ha! I hate to leave money on the table, but I did not know that name and I had to look it up.

    Seems his name should be taught in school right along with Eli Whiteny and Thomas Edison.

    Doctor My Eyes

    I had a discussion with someone years ago, about that song.

    Is it "Doctor (noun) my eyes" or "Doctor (verb) my eyes"?

    Correct.

    Good point.

    Is it "Doctor (noun) my eyes" or "Doctor (verb) my eyes"?

    AT40 played the Bob Seger one earlier. I thought "Ah, there's my next R-n-R Arithmetic question."

    Ariel

    Grand Funk + Lea Thompson = [song]

    Been thinking of this Grand Funk album, from where this song comes. I used to have it on 8-track. I have not heard it since those days. I just previewed all the songs on the internet. I remember them all. I need to grab it on CD, if I can find it.

    I see they have a song named Time Machine, that I don't know, and Bad Time, which I do know.

  • snookeroo
    snookeroo Posts: 2,532 Member

    Never heard of Time Machine. Bad Time is from the right album, but wrong song. Lea Thompson movie title is the same as this song by Grand Funk. One more try.

    I decided not to wait to buy the CD and downloaded the digital album, last night. I listened to it this morning on my walk. I can't remember liking the album (8-track) that much back in the '70s. But I REALLY liked it this morning. I would think if it was one of my favorites, I would have replaced it on CD or vinyl, long ago. It had to be one of my first album purchases back then. It was 1975 and that's when I bought Capt. Fantastic, which was my very first album I ever bought.

    Obviously, I was thinking of Back to the Future.

    Had to do some searching. Great song. I have seen the movie.

    Some Kind of Wonderful

    Grand Funk reminds me of Badfinger somehow.

    Here are a couple awesome Badfinger covers.
