Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.
1) This song is about a young man who is happy to hear his phone ring. How about you? How do you feel when your phone rings? (Excited, annoyed, surprised, etc.)
A. It depends on who is calling. If it says "SPAM" then I'm not happy. If it's a friend, then I am quite happy.
2) He's got James Taylor on the stereo. Are you a James Taylor fan?
A. James Taylor is ok. I like some of his songs.
3) He tells his girl he's been hanging with his buddies, Tony and Mario, but they're no substitute for her. What friend did you recently spend time with? What did you do?
A. We went shopping.
4) Tony and Mario were real people. They ran a restaurant frequented by the songwriters. Did you dine out this past week?
A. We ate in this week.
5) "Rings" is the only hit for the band Cymarron, who hailed from Memphis, a town known for classic southern comfort foods like biscuits and gravy, cornbread and mashed potatoes. What's on the menu at your home this weekend?
A. Meatloaf.
6) The boys in Cymarron took their name from their favorite TV show, the Western Cimarron Strip. What TV show are you currently enjoying? Maybe your fellow Sat9ers would like it, too.
A. We like Brilliant Minds, which comes on at 10 p.m. on Monday nights. We tape it to watch it at a time more favorable to us.
7) In 1971, when this song was popular, the US Mint introduced the Eisenhower Silver Dollar. Is there any change in your wallet or pocket right now?
A. I have a bit of change, but not a lot. I haven't seen a Silver Dollar in ages.
8) Also in 1971, Mattel introduced Malibu Barbie, the doll with a tan. Have you ever used a tanning bed?
A. I climbed in one time, immediately had claustrophobia, and got out of there.
9) Random question – If we were to ask your friends, which of these qualities would they say they like best about you: your warmth, your sense of humor, or your intelligence?
A. Can I say my wry, intelligent sense of humor?

Brilliant minds is a wonderful show. I love it makes you think.
ReplyDeleteI love Brilliant Minds also. I go to the app on the weekend and watch my shows. They are there for streaming when you are ready. Loved your answers! Have a nice weekend.

I've heard good things about Brilliant Minds. I don't typically watch TV other than what I wrote about but if it comes to Hulu, Netflix, etc maybe I'll add to my lists.
ReplyDeleteOOH....meatloaf! I haven' made it since 2014 when I gave up beef but maybe I should try making it with the ground bison I do eat! That might be really good.
Enjoyed your answers!
I wonder if the Treasury still makes silver dollars. If it does, maybe it save some money by ending production of those.
