I can name that pop tune in 10 words

Cafe Society
41

Was 24 Jim Croce? I thought it was “Sunshine on My Shoulders” by John Denver.

Next!

  1. Come on down and meet your maker.
42

gossamer is Threadkiller right on #30? I’d guess Nothing But Flowers by the Talking Heads.

43

Damn, screwed up the numbers and the title.

Try again:

  1. Come on down and meet your maker.

Title to 24 - “Annie’s Song”, John Denver.

30 is definitely Big Yellow Taxi, by Joni Mitchell (and most recently Counting Crows.)

44

I’m heading out and I thought I’d leave a few more.

  1. Walk without rhythm and you won’t attract the worm.
  2. Spent most of his time chasing women and drinking.
  3. wouldn’t lie to you baby, it’s mainly a physical thing.
  4. People pissin’ on the stairs, you know they just don’t
45

I think 14 is In The Club by 50 Cent.

  1. Out of college, money spent
  2. .sdaeh rieht edih nur yeht semoc niar eht nheW
  3. And we said, “Okay.”
46

Yeesh,

  1. If at first you don’t suceed
  2. Out of college, money spent
  3. .sdaeh rieht edih nur yeht semoc niar eht nheW
  4. And we said, “Okay.”
47

Okay, there are a number of solutions:

Ellen Cherry, correct on numbers 21 and 22.

gossamer is correct on number 23.

Morgainelf your first guess was correct on number 24. It is “Sunshine on my Shoulders” by John Denver. Neither Denver’s “Annie’s Song,” nor anything by Jim Croce.

Threadkiller, you were close on your guess for number 8. Here’s another clue–number 8 was done by the same artist who did “Time Passages.”

48

Yes. I’ve had it in my head for a couple of days now. Joni Mitchell, I think.

49

Number 31–I think it’s “She Came In Through the Bathroom Window,” by the Beatles.

50

Whoops, no, I meant Wolfian’s revised number 36: “Out of college, money spent” is the Beatles’ “She Came In Through the Bathroom Window.”

51

Thanks for the tips:
8. Year of the cat Al Stewart

52

  1. Rain–The Beatles

  2. Life’s the same, it’s all inside you.

53
  1. Spent most of his time chasing women and drinking. Papa Was a Rolling Stone (I think that’s the title)

In My Own Defense Dept: Lyrics from Nothing but Flowers by The Talking Heads:

There was a shopping mall
Now it’s all covered with flowers
you’ve got it, you’ve got it
If this is paradise
I wish I had a lawnmower
Ahem.

And a big welcome to gossamer!

54

Threadkiller, yes, you’re correct with Al Stewart’s “Year of the Cat.” Way to go! I was beginning to wonder if anybody would get it.

And let me also welcome gossamer!

55

I don’t know how you confuse a lawnmower with a parking lot. :smiley:

56

Or is it “Golden Slumbers”? I have a hell of a time with the song divisions on that album.

Morgainelf’s #31 is “The Stand” by The Alarm.

57

In my personal opinion, using google is cheating. You’ve gotta strain your brain, scrinch up your face and say: “Wait a minute…I know this…uh…um…”

  41. Life’s the same, it’s all inside you.

Slow down, dang it! I can’t type that fast!

And # 36 is You Never Give Me Your Money rather than Bathroom Window.

And the fact that both #31 entries sound like Dune references is just too funny.
