From the classic 1971 album 'Tapestry': I Feel The Earth Move - Carole King The first time I heard this song it was actually Martika's 1989 cover version. Unfortunately for Martika it was released just before the San Fransisco earthquake, and some radio stations decided to pull the track from their playlists.

Here's your links: Two Dollars In The Jukebox - Eddie Rabbitt I must listen to some more Eddie Rabbitt - I only have a few of his songs. For my turn I'm going for this:

My last post contained a video with you in mind, and this is how you repay me? I'm counting the days to the new album! What a shame their tour isn't leaving North America again. Here's some smooth acid jazz from the '90s: Norman Cook (aka. Fatboy Slim) was behind this song that came to greater prominence after it featured in a commercial for Levi's 501s. There's even a bongo solo near the end .

Thanks. I even checked a UK fan site for Kathryn Morris. There were screengrabs and links to the trailers, but no sign of any information about it being shown in the UK.

I didn't even know that The Tokens had covered the song. You can listen to their 1970 version here. The song was written by Brian Wilson who recorded it with The Beach Boys and released it in 1964. According to Wikipedia, Brian was trying to capture the essence of his all-time favorite record, "Be My Baby" by the Ronettes (see a few of posts back). You can listen to The Beach Boys' version here. The song was also covered in 1977 by BJ Thomas, who changed the words a little. The video I found has an introduction that explains some of the different versions - skip to about 1:45 if you just want to hear the song. You can find it (I have a hunch that Garrett will like this video ).Other versions from the '70s include (1973), and The Who drummer, (1975).

I guessed correctly . For me the star of the video was the beautiful 1970 Chevy Chevelle SS convertible (it should've had more screen time), although the Corvettes were quite nice too. The car is from Rick Hendrick's private collection and was custom built with a 6.2 liter supercharged LS9 V8 engine producing over 600 horsepower (no wonder the tires were smoking!). It can do a quarter mile in 12 seconds flat .

This seems like a reasonable response to the request in the last post : This is version of the song I'm most familiar with, although if you'd prefer Bob Dylan's original, you can hear it here:

Superior It's just that we seemed to be jumping randomly around the world like a Dukes of Hazzard cartoon spin-off series .

Portugal There's been some dubious geography in this thread lately, so I thought I'd stick to the Iberian Peninsula .

I need an antidote to all this NKOTB - how about some Italian-American post-disco performed by a pop-dance act created by a French-Italian businessman? : Performing lead vocals for Change proved to be the long-desired career breakthrough for soul legend Luther Vandross.

The Hallmark Channel no longer exists in the UK and Ireland. It was re-branded to Universal Channel in 2010, and now just shows re-runs of programs like 'Law and Order' and 'CSI', so my chances of seeing this movie are virtually nil . I'll have to keep checking schedules and other resources - maybe someone will post it on YouTube.

Here's a very '60s-sounding song from Johnny Depp's ex-partner. Despite the retro sound and title, it has nothing to do with . This one was written by Lenny Kravitz (who she was dating at the time).

I'm not jealous - much! I hope you have a great time and look forward to seeing the pictures.

To dovetail with my last post I thought I'd include a link to Peggy Rea's first appearance in the last show she was in. The series was 'Grace Under Fire' (1993), and Peggy played Grace's interfering mother-in-law, Jean Kelly. Throughout the five seasons Peggy appeared in 51 episodes (nearly half). It looks like this was the first series created by Chuck Lorre, who went on to create 'Cybill', 'Dharma & Greg', 'Two and a Half Men', and 'The Big Bang Theory'. The link below is for YouTube, so hopefully everyone can see this one. Of course, it may get taken down. The video quality isn't the best, even at 480p, but it's quite watchable. Hopefully one of my local TV stations will show this again one day, or it'll get a full DVD release. Grace Under Fire Undergraduate Part One Here's a screengrab of Peggy with her on-screen daughter-in-law, Grace (Brett Butler):

I think I've figured out the kind of commercials you like : That's a lovely Camaro SS convertible he's driving in the second one.

This song was supposedly written by Sheryl Crow (and Jeff Trott) about her ex-boyfriend, Eric Clapton. I thought it'd be fun to post the live version where Sheryl guest stars with Eric: (Live with Eric Clapton) I'm gonna miss it too . I'm hoping the news is that they're entering a monastic order and taking a vow of silence .

Today (1/19/13) marks the 60th anniversary of Peggy Rea's first TV appearance. She played the part of a nurse in an episode of 'I Love Lucy' called 'Lucy Goes to the Hospital'; as mentioned above, it was the first of four appearances in the second season of the show. The YouTube link in my previous post no longer works, but those of you in the US can watch the whole of this episode on Hulu. If that link gives you any problems, try these for TV.com or Yahoo. I'd like to thank MeadowMufn for testing those links as I was unable to do so. Here's how Peggy looked back in 1953 - she's the dark-haired nurse behind Desi. Although you may not instantly recognize her from the picture, if you watch the episode, you're sure to recognize her voice (MeadowMufn and I did anyway). Peggy's second appearance was three episodes later in 'The Club Election'. She played one of the members of the women's club, and had a couple of lines. You'd be forgiven for thinking that the next screengrab was from the same episode as the one above. Peggy seems to be wearing the same outfit, albeit with a different hat and earrings. It's actually from 'No Children Allowed', another three episodes later. The lady on the left is Ethel Mertz (Vivian Vance), Lucy's friend and neighbor. For her last appearance, Peggy once again played a member of the women's club who come to Lucy's for a game of bridge. She's only in the opening scene, and the picture below is the only time she's seen head-on. The YouTube link above may be dead, but this episode is also available on Hulu (if you live in the US!).

Ireland has had damp, miserable weather this week, but just across the water in the UK they've had snow. Watching the pictures on the news reminded me of this award winning commercial from 1964:

I don't know where you'd get a hat, but there's plenty of pocket watches on Ebay for under $10 inc. postage.

Here's a fairly obvious one from 'High Octane'. For most of the chase at the end of the episode Roxanne Huntley is driving a Ford Granada with round headlights (1975-77 model) ... ... yet when she pulls up to Sweet Tillie she's driving a later model Granada (1978-80) with square headlights. Strangely, both cars seem to have the same grille. After a bit of research it appears to belong to later car (below).

Thanks - I liked it, apart from the music . If you like Coke you should go back to the classic 1971 commercial which later became a full-length song for the New Seekers: For anyone on a post-Christmas diet, how about a Diet Coke commercial featuring music by Etta James (who sadly passed away a year ago this coming Sunday):

Maybe a bit of Ska will convince you : This one was a top 10 hit in the UK back in 1982, and features the inimitable Buster Bloodvessel on lead vocals. It's a cover of a song first recorded by which was a minor hit in 1956. The best known, and most successful version was recorded by in 1964. It made #2 in the US and UK and #1 in Ireland.

I have to agree with you, Roger. It can be a little disheartening to spend time researching questions and then find that only one or two people answer (and I know other members read this thread regularly - what's stopping you?). I'm taking a break at the moment because I need time to watch some episodes and think up some more questions. If there's enough support, I'm happy to ask questions again in the future, and I'll also (try to) answer questions posted by others in the meantime.

I think we need some proper music after that, so here's some Irish rock . I don't think this song was released as a single in the US, but it charted at #2 in Ireland and #12 in the UK back in 1976.

Never go food shopping or play trivia quizzes on an empty stomach, Roger . BL takes the points again (see picture below). Seeing as this was one of the Georgia episodes I did wonder whether it was a real business. I couldn't find anything on Google, although there is a beauty salon called 'Aaron Ricky and Darlene' in nearby Conyers. Does anyone else have any trivia questions to ask while I take a break?
