pinkstones Posted August 11, 2012 Report Posted August 11, 2012 That's what I get for not checking the site often enough; I didn't know there was a special this week. Here are my three noms: Summertime's Calling Me - Catalinas (1975) Sultans of Swing - Dire Straits (1978) A Beautiful Morning - The Rascals (1968) With that last nomination, every time I hear it, I think of driving down the road on a warm summer day with the top down.
Lucky Posted August 11, 2012 Report Posted August 11, 2012 There she is, hey ps. So good you're fine and back... There has been some confusion over the years just how fine I am, but I can see. And I'm back. I did zero computing for over a week. Very weird, but I haven't hardly been off the thing all day today.

pinkstones Posted August 11, 2012 Report Posted August 11, 2012 I'm changing one of my nominations, if that's alright. Cruel Summer is out, Sultans of Swing is in. Why Sultans of Swing? Babe Ruth's nickname was the Sultan of Swing, and he played baseball. Baseball is primarily played in the summer.
Uncle Joe Posted August 11, 2012 Report Posted August 11, 2012 Babe's nickname was The Sultan Of Swat. Sorry PS...gonna have to fine your after all.
pinkstones Posted August 11, 2012 Report Posted August 11, 2012 Babe's nickname was The Sultan Of Swat. Sorry PS...gonna have to fine your after all. LOL! I had a brain fart, there. Either way, I've always associated that song with baseball, even though it has nothing to with sports. Same with Boys of Summer by Don Henley, and that has nothing to with baseball either. It's close enough to count. :-P
MindCrime Posted August 11, 2012 Author Report Posted August 11, 2012 I might replace one of my noms with Cruel Summer then, unless somebody who still has a 3rd nom remaining wants to put it in
_Laurie_ Posted August 11, 2012 Report Posted August 11, 2012 I like the Kid Rock song Kenne...don't replace that one!...
