Yeah, I'm bringing it back! This might help me keep up with regular postings. For new viewers... I hit shuffle in iTunes and then post the opening line of a song and you guess it. If it is not the opening line (which could give away the song) it will be preceded by this "..." . I do have quite an eclectic selection including big band standards, Broadway, oldies, 80s and some from the present. Sometimes I'll throw in quotes from TV, movies, plays, novels, poetry, whatever.

1. ...Other dancers may be on the floor Dear, but my eyes will see only you
2. There's a little black spot on the Sun today It's the same old thing as yesterday
3. Ooh, I bet you're wondering how I knew 'bout you're plans to make me blue
4. Hold me close and tell me how you feel Tell me love is real
5. Don't tell me not to live, just sit and putter Life's candy and the sun's a ball of butter
6. So you think that you have found A better life that you should live
7. Try not to get worried Try not to turn on to Problems that upset you
8. It's amazing how you Can speak right to my heart. Without saying a word
9. I still don't know what I was waiting for And my time was running wild
10. Funny how I find myself in love with you If I could buy my reasoning, I'd pay to lose

Very good! Yep, that was the Beatles cover though I do have the original Buddy Holly as well. And that is the Ronan Keating version too. Oh, and you got Jesus Christ Superstar as well!

9 is Bowie, "Changes".

5 seems weirdly familiar, but I'm not sure... I keep thinking either Streisand or Minnelli.

Yessss I rock!

Yeah, when I was a kid I had a major fixation for JCSS.A version was done here in the 90s that I adored and used to constantly perform, to the chagrin of my poor patient family!

Yep, Bowie is correct and 5 is Streisand.
