    Didn't know that fact about Witchiita Lineman, if you plucked that off the top of your head I pluck the hat off mine and doff it. I was though referring to his guitar work on this one. He was a great session musician working for the likes of the Beach Boys(they provide a few entries for California).
    By the time I get to Phoenix (Arizona)
    Galveston(Texas)

    Idk you make a quiz tailor made for our American friends and they just don't bother.
  • Brian NBrian N
    Hi @kathy, my American friend. Hope you're feeling a little better. When you said you weren't working I thought you meant you were off due to illness, surely the DOD haven't dispensed with your services?
    Didn't google but had to go back to Ham Dunk for your final basketball team. Phoenix is popular this morning. The Suns.

    I'm afraid I do know an awful lot of useless facts about music. Well, useless up to a point, until someone like you sets a quiz like this.

    Think that's 44 States to go.
  • KathyKathy
    Nice team work on the basketball quiz :)
    I got Massachusetts by the BeeGees ? We didn't get the yet right?
  • KathyKathy
    Yeah @BrianN I'm out of work better of illness , the big 'C' been doing Chemo had 2 sessions so far, is going ok.
  • KathyKathy

  • KathyKathy
    Carolina on my mind.. James Taylor
  • Brian NBrian N
    You really are getting the gist of it @kathy. Impressive. I'm assuming the gov. are keeping your job open till you get better? Bronchitis and chemotherapy. No wonder you're feeling like shite(as @hunnybunny so delicately put it).
  • Brian NBrian N
    41 to go by my reckoning. I'm holding you responsible for Illinois and Michigan's @catsnbirds. Not too difficult?

    Can I have Nebraska by Springsteen please? I knew it was the album title, but I had to check it was a song as well, which it is.
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    Are you counting Carolina as 1 or 2 @brianN?
  • Brian NBrian N
    Can't think of anything specific to North or South Carolina unless someone comes up with something we'll count it as 2.2 also for Dakota, Stereophonics?
    Sweet home Alabama. Not sure who did that one.
    Sweet Rhode Island Red. Tina Turner.
    Wanted to get The Fall in with L. A. (California) I'm sure we could come up with a dozen each for this state.

    Not that great on remembering songs/titles, but I can do the two I was assigned:
    For Michigan = America by Simon and Garfunkel (“Michigan seems like a dream to me now…”)
    For Illinois = Illinois by Dan Fogelburg
  • ixan57ixan57
    Wasn't there song North to alaska
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    @catsnbirds, don't think @brianN will allow Michigan because the name of the song is America, not Michigan. Could be wrong but that would make it bit easy because I think there is a song that just runs through all 50 states so why are we bothering?

    Sweet Home Alabama was Lynerd Skynerd, however you spell it.

    I'll throw in Nevada, All the Way to Reno by REM.
    And @ixan57 is quite correct. That got a tricky one out the way.
  • ixan57ixan57
    The blue ridge mountains of Virginia Laural and Hardy
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    Really sorry @ixan57, that song is On the Trail of the Lonesome Pine

    Well done with Dan Fogelberg track. Dan's right about Michigan answer, you do have Detroit though, cities within the state can be used as long as it's in the title.
    That song mentioning all 50 states is called Delaware. I'm havin' it.
    Viva Las Vegas(Nevada again)

  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    We might need to extend to include titles of albums and artists themselves if we really get bogged down. But I will hold fire on that.
