Hint-

The mystery man was one half of a fairly popular singing duo in the mid 1960's. A first name will suffice for the answer.

A lyrics question, because my imagination is gone, name the band (well known) and song (not so well known):

" I like every second, so long as you are on my mind
Every moment has its special charm
It's all right when you're around, rain or shine "

DrJ

Gillibeanz · Post by **Gillibeanz** » Thu May 20, 2004 3:03 pm

It's 'Blue Red and Grey' by The Who

DrJ · Post by **DrJ** » Thu May 20, 2004 4:21 pm

Yes it is. A great song.

Fire away, Gilli.

Robert Smith, was for a short period of time in the band Siouxsie and the Banshees. Name another former member who went on to become a huge star in a legendary band?

Sid Vicious, god rest him.

Otis Westinghouse · Post by **Otis Westinghouse** » Thu May 20, 2004 6:07 pm

I'm gonna take issue with Gilli again! Unless I'm very much mistaken, Sid was in an incarnation called The Flowers of Romance (as reffed in the later PiL song). I demand a recount!

Sid was in the Flowers before his brief stint with Siouxsie and the Banshees. I knew the latter fact without googling, btw, I just got the above to clarify things, since I was also aware of his association with the Flowers.
