It's not Bobby that sings 'lend a hand' it's the backing singers, but it's still in the song nonetheless..

Personally I blame my mate Kyp from Nottingham.

It was his idea to start this thread & he came up with the titles :wicked:

"Come and go with me, to my lttle cottage, by the sea" I think he sang.

"Girl Don't Make Me Wait" - Bunny Sigler

dunno if it qualifys.....but Joe Simon........."When" on SS7...why was it called that?........ :thumbsup:

  Pete S said:

Yes, Pete, but you know what some of those types who go in for a spot of 'cottaging' are like.... :lol:

(...not from personal experience, obviously...)

Think he's right.

  SteveM said:

Girl, don't make me wait too long,

cos without you I can't go on,

You are the one for me

etc etc etc.

Oh yeah that's right! 1000 pardons. Not overly familiar with that number due to initial hearings leading me to the conclusion that it was a little bit crap. Did try and listen to the clip beforehand on Soulclub, but strangely (at work at least) I get error messages on about half the tracks on there. Dunno if anyone else has this problem?

Fluffy Falana. What kind of name is that for a geezer? :lol:

  tonyp said:

Tony

Think you need to listen again!!!!

The line is "Baby please don't make me wait too long"

etc.etc.

Just after the break he sings "Girl don't ...........don't make me wait"

Off the top of my head 'Lonely for you baby' - Sam Dees

He never actually says 'lonely for you baby' in the song.

"Girl Don't Make Me Wait" - Bunny Sigler

He sings that line though...so girl don't, don't make me wait

  Pete S said:

Without wishing to sound confrontational, no he doesn't.

Close........ but no cigar!!!

See post #27 for further details.

THE HORSE

I'm disappointed that there isn't a mention of a "horse" in that song. Yet on "Crazy Horses" by The Osmonds you actually get the word "horses" and lots of fake horse noises!

Animal songs were quite popular when soul music was going through it's "animal phase". Jackie Lee had a song about a "duck", Major Lance sang about a "monkey", Rufus Thomas talked about a "dog" and someone mentioned an "alligator" which rhymed with "mashed potatoe" but I've no idea why. Maybe alligators eat mashed potatoes?

Sorry for going a bit off-topic.

I don't think "Catch that teardrop" is ever sung but it's a better title than "Don't let this teardrop hit the ground".

Anybody know if 'Of Hopes & Dreams & Cobblestones' is actually sung in the record?
