Lumpy Gravy
Watermelon in Easter hay
St. Alfonzo’s pancake Breakfast
Who Needs the Peace Corps?

[QUOTE=simster]
Last song title is right - rest wrong - and this is not Elvis Costello.
[/QUOTE]

Ok, I think I have it…I have to admit, that I had to resort to some ITunes-Fu on this one… I’ll spoiler it in case that’s not allowed:

B
F
S
D
IWY

B - Be
F - Faithful
S - Southside
D - Dooinit
IWY - I Want You

COMMON?

[QUOTE=Surbey]
No body is solving mine (although the first set I had was for a band that has since been named)

I’ll give you a hint, it was an emo band but has since become a rock/pop band

LDM
GSH
IFDD
HYM
ND
*MABYI
*WIWSTY

Added the last two to give a bit more of help
[/QUOTE]

LDM - Lucky Denver Mint
GSH - Goodbye Sky Harbor
IFDD - If You Don’t, Don’t
HYM - Hear Your Me
ND - Night Drive
*MABYI - May Angels [Lead?] You In (you’ve got MABYI, think it’s supposed to be MALYI.
*WIWSTY - What I Would Say To You [Now] WIWSTYN

JIMMY EAT WORLD

No one’s guessed this one of mine:

PO4
(TSJ)SWL
NTTH(I3)
TBBOTIM
SIACWVW

Here’s a hint: another batch by the same {artist or group} has been guessed correctly.

And I’ve just learned it’s officially NTTH, not NTTH(I3), but maybe the extra bit will help, since I always thought it was part of the title.

Your Song, Tiny Dancer, Saturday’s Alright for Fighting, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, and whatever RM stands for.

So I guess that would be Elton John. :slight_smile:

Damn good job sir! Very glad someone got that. You were right too. Lead not Bring. I’m done with this thread, my head hurts to much. Maybe some time later.

Good day.

Black Sabbath

COTG = Children of the Grave
SBS = Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
WW = Wicked World
SOTU = Symptom of the Universe
BTWOS - Behind the Wall of Sleep, which I originally got, but I wasted too much time trying to make the rest of the list match The Smithereens

Geesh I went thru and tried to match the lists to Jimmy Eat World AND Sabbath after the hints, (and had even went through looking for Sabbath and JEW before the hints were given,) but couldn’t match any of them, although I should have know If you dont dont, May angels lead you home, and Wicked World. I was scanning the thread for NIB, BS for sabbath, and BA, and APC for Jimmy.
