Sorry if this has been done before - I did do a search but after a night at college I just couldn't be arsed trawling through over 40 pages of threads devoted to music :shock:
So to lighten the mood of SH I propose a kind of music quizz cum game type thingy.
You need to either post the name of a song that you think was either written by a swinger or sung about swingers. Or even refers to swingers. And if you can't think of any you need to put down your own lyrics that would fit to a popular song - but has to be about swinging. Got it?
I'm gonna start with a song where the title just oozes swinging:
Marianne Faithfull: Sex With Strangers

Leave before the Lights come up.....Arctic Monkeys
This Girl isnt my Girlfriend....Little Man Tate
Oldest Swinger In Town
(Chris Newman / Ed Pickford)
When you score with a chick in a disco bar
Take her home in your hairy little car
Then you find you went to school with her Ma and Pa
You're the oldest swinger in town
When you won't look in a mirror in the light of day
Swear you dyed it when your hair turns grey
When you zip up your Wranglers and your belly's in the way
You're the oldest swinger in town
Here you come and there you go
Wire wheel-spokes and a stereo
But the engine's clapped, and the driver also
Is the oldest swinger in town
When your barber takes a little less time each week
The kids don't understand a word you speak
When you walk into a disco and they offer you a seat
You're the oldest swinger in town
You prefer a pint of mild to Bacardi and coke
The songs are too loud and there's too much smoke
You'd like another dance but you're scared you'll have a stroke
You're the oldest swinger in town
Here you come with your chest all bare
A little gold ingot and a lot of gold hair
Like the disco king meets Yogi Bear
You're the oldest swinger in town
When you're feeling as stiff as a skinhead's boot
Rub on Vick where you used to splash Brut
And the latest punk fashion is your wedding suit
You're the oldest swinger in town
When you have to go shopping for your sex appeal
Travolta shades and nine-inch heels
You say a man is just as old as the woman he feels
You're the oldest swinger in town
Here you come with your lips closed tight
You never smile, you know it wouldn't look right
'Cause your dentures glow in ultra-violet light
You're the oldest swinger in town
And you look so mean 'cause your pants are too tight
You're the oldest swinger in town
And it takes you all night to do what you used to do all night
You're the oldest swinger in town
(as sung by Fred Wedlock)

What was really funny though Missy is the fact that you picked a religious song to change the words to :giggle: :giggle:
One Time Lover - Atlantic Starr
Secret Lovers - Atlantic Starr
Love Crazy - Atlantic Starr
Swing Shift - The Lyres :karaoke:
Two Stephen Stills songs for starters:
"Love The One You're with".
......
And if you can't be with the one you love,
Love the one you're with
Love the one you're with.
Don't be angry, don't be sad,
And don't sit cryin' over good times you've had,
There's a girl right next to you
And she's just waitin' for something to do.
......
Then there's "Change Partners" off his second solo album. Actually it's about a masked ball, but the title fits the bill.
The Beatles "All Together Now". Bit tenuous, that one.
Country artiste Trace Adkins has a song called.... "Swing". Not in our context unfortunately, as it compares the game of baseball with picking up a woman, three strikes and you're out. Tthe words in brackets spoken by baseball commentator:
Swing batter batter, Swing batter batter, Swing batter batter swing,
Swing batter batter, Swing batter batter, Swing batter batter swing,
(Strike one)
Hey baby do you do come here often?
(Strike two)
Hey baby now what’s your sign?
(Strike three)
Hold on now where you goin’?
(Heeeee's out)
Jimmy’s out, next in line.
......
Someone else gets his three strikes, then the tables get turned and the singer is the one who gets pulled by the woman the blokes are queueing up to have a go at. A dead good rocking tune.
Old red eyes is Back - The Beautiful South
Cecilla - Simon and Garfunkle
