"It's dreamy weather we're on
You waved your crooked wand
Along an icy pond with a frozen moon
A murder of silhouette crows I saw
And the tears on my face
And the skates on the pond
They spell ___ ."

They spell what?
Written by?

Who was the first Beatle to have a #1 single as a solo artist?

George Harrison

He was, in fact, the first Beatle to have a #1 single as a solo artist ("My Sweet Lord" from "All Things Must Pass").

If you needed to google it don't you think you could've let someone else who wasn't in the lead answer it?

But yes, you are of course correct.

Uh.....you can only ask a question if you answer one correctly.....maybe save this one for later

ummmm...............wasnt Joni Mitchells Blue inspired by David Crosby???

Post by **BlueChair** » Fri Apr 30, 2004 11:02 am

Crosby and Mitchell were involved at one point, but Blue was apparently an open letter to a depressed James Taylor.

Good job, gilli.. unfortunately that question didn't count, because wehitandrun never answered a question correctly.

The current question, by martinfoyle is:

"What did Lawrence Donegan sell in the US?"

Gillibeanz · Post by **Gillibeanz** » Fri Apr 30, 2004 3:40 pm

AWWWW!

Post by **spooky girlfriend** » Fri Apr 30, 2004 3:46 pm

Used cars.

It was Johnny Cash, wasn't it?

Post by **spooky girlfriend** » Fri Apr 30, 2004 7:23 pm

Yup. I figured you would get that one, Blue.

Not to give myself the point, but I figure we could move a bit quicker if I do:

Okay... question...

After Tommy, Pete Townshend went straight to work on another rock opera, one that he quickly abandoned, releasing fragments of it throughout the rest of The Who's recorded career. He finally got around to completing nearly thirty years later. What is the name of this rock opera?
