Taking a bit (OK A Lot) of poetic license with the theme. But hey It's Meatloaf.

from the movie, Reckless, with Aiden Quinn and Daryl Hannah, filmed in Pittsburgh.

Swiss song about Handy (cell phone) from 2006. I don't know whether they still call them Handys.

Talking Loud and Clear - OMD

Have I Told You Lately That I Love You

Little known track by Del Shannon

This was released (as a single) in UK before it was ever available in the U.S., and so I had a pen pal in Wales send me a copy of it.

Tell Him

Every Picture Tells A Story

This was one of the first songs I thought of.

Never liked this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RfBEqiEhCgM

This one is much better... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVub1QCUCGc

Mama Told Me Not to Come https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wR0D6HJms8w

I was not aware that this was a Randy Newman song:

I like both versions, but they sound very different. I also very much like "The Word" by the Beatles and was expecting someone to post it much sooner.

(Please, please tell me now) Is There Something I Should Know

The name of this group was taken from the movie Barbarella.

A few soul sisters telling it like it is

Another Call Me

The Monkey Speaks His Mind

Pick A little Talk A Little

Words

The Bird Is The Word

Gentleman Jim Reeves (his records played often in our house when I was a little kid, so good memories)

From the early 2000's ... with lyrics because it's sometimes hard to pick up what they're saying if you haven't listened to it 50 times already

(sorry Lars I'll delete this and move it to Part III)
