OK then, it was 'Have you ever seen the rain?' - go ahead Evz!

I'll try and be less obscure next time :p, although not being into the modern Top 30 music makes that slightly difficult. I have no clue what kids listen to these days :moo:

You are right Derv - it's Finnegan's Wake, performed by many artists - but my favourite is the punk rock version by Dropkick Murphys :).

I don't think the first quote is very obscure, although some knowledge of 70s rock bands is required.

My official entry:

Someone told me long ago
There's a calm before the storm



And here's a bonus lyric (from another song, obviously) because we have reached 10 pages of lyrics guessing! :clap:

It's been a long time since I listened to GnR, but I'm fairly sure it's 'You could be mine'. Going to dig up those old tapes again I think, thanks Ray :)

Before switching to Thunderbird, I used MailWasher with quite good results. I'm not sure on how it performs now though.

Finally managed to work myself through the tutorial and one hole. Fun game :).

One thing that strikes me though is that most (or all?) golf games still use the same three-click hitting method as the Golf game on the Nintendo 8-bit - and that's about 20 years old :swords:

I might have a couple of names for you - all American stuff First of all, George Carlin - my personal favourite. Titles to look out for: 'At Carnegie Hall', 'Back in Town', 'Carlin on Campus', 'Jammin' in New York' and 'Life is worth losing'. The following three are Texans, so only listen if you can...

I'm allergic to wireless as well, whatever the technology - YMMV of course :). Just a couple of weeks ago, I went to help someone out who had bought a 200€ wireless mouse/keyboard set - she eventually took my advice and went back to swap it for the wired version :p. I've been using Logitech ever sin...

An easy modern one then, and I hope it lodges itself in your brain so all you can think of today is this tune :p.

I could be violet sky

I could be purple
