| Is it "Shipbuilding??" These are even worse than the first liners.
|
| 675.5 | I'll soon run out of ideas | JOBBIE::PATTISON | A rolling stone gets the worm | Wed May 16 1990 15:54 | 1 |
| It is Shipbuilding, by Robert Wyatt (or much better by Elvis Costello).
|
| 675.6 | Boring | YUPPY::EVANSJ | twentysomething | Thu May 17 1990 15:46 | 3 |

| I must admit, it's a bit trickier than '1st Liners'....
... how about a 'Middle Liners'... eg: "...the waiter brought a tray"

| A separate topic for middle-liners sounds like a good idea. Howsabout
saying that you should post at least two whole lines? They actually run
this as a competition on a local radio station here, and even though
they only use singles which have charted in the past you'd be surprised
how difficult it can be.

|
| 675.31 | | YUPPY::DUNCAN | | Wed Jul 04 1990 12:30 | 6 |

put you out of your misery - Blue Savannah, Erasure
I will not retire from this note, its too hard for me.

| 675.32 | | TENERE::LADRET | | Wed Jul 04 1990 14:33 | 9 |
| .9 and others
Johnny Johnny is a Clash song from their first album, I forgot the title with
the time.
"I'm an air conditioned gipsy" is taken from "Going mobile" by the Who on
Who's next.

| 675.33 | Protex,Protex Blue all I want is you....... | AYOV16::AMOONEY | | Fri Oct 05 1990 15:02 | 10 |

re.9 The last liner.....could it be "Protex Blue" from the first
Clash album ?
Andy.
|
| 675.34 | Indeed it is. | TENERE::LADRET | Gisement epuise (.neq.) mine de rien | Tue Oct 09 1990 17:05 | 8 |
| To cut a long story short, Johnny Johnny is also the title of the 2nd LP of a
punk/new-wave/whatever you call it french band Edith Nylon in 1980. It was a
non-disguised hommage to the Clash and Joe Strummer even went to play on this LP.
If I remeber well, the song Johnny Johnny started the way Protex Blue ended.
Quite promising, Edith Nylon has now faded away.
