Day 21: A song following these instructions:

That’s a lot of words toots. But for you, I read em.

I put in Why Do You Love Me by Garbage and three clicks later got:

Imma very shallow Metric fan. Mostly Help I’m Alive and the Scott Pilgrim one is it. I liked this though.

I’m pretty sure the Jeep they use in this video is a vintage G.I. Joe VAMP. But the tanks aren’t MOBATS or Maulers. Just generic tank toys.

Day 22: A song that's one of the first you remember liking off the radio

I was still listening to the radio a couple years ago. Not so much lately. When I was small, 80's was still playing on the radio... am I old? This and being an MTV/VH1 addict from an early age means my comfort music is 80's/early 90's.

I remember hearing this song in the car while in the backseat.

Higher Love - Steve Winwood

Day 22: A song that's one of the first you remember liking off the radio
I was very, very young when this came on an oldies radio station and I did more than like it -- I was immediately in love with this song.
(A personal footnote: Lou Rawls -- the 2nd celebrity I ran into when I moved to Los Angeles... He was so gracious and seem pleasantly surprised that that I recognized him. We shook hands and in that moment, I literally thought the city was mine for the taking,
I'll always love this song.

Day 22: A song that's one of the first you remember liking off the radio

The first one I remember, I posted the last time we did a radio prompt. So I’ll go with this other random memory.
I used to sing songs around the house, whatever was stuck in my head. (Well, I still do, but this is when I was a kid .) My mom used to tell me I couldn’t sing this one because it was inappropriate. Maybe she didn’t realize the content of the other music I was hearing, but I could not for the life of me understand what was so excessively inappropriate about this one. And she wouldn’t explain it to me because she said i didn’t need to know. I still don’t really understand.

Sugar Ray - Every Morning

Day 22: A song that's one of the first you remember liking off the radio

This is one of my earliest memories. I distinctly remember sitting on the living room floor, folding towels for my mom when this song came on American Top Forty with Casey Kasum, so I must have been about four, since that's when it charted.

I don't know if I like the song, per se. But I remember the feel of the carpet on my feet, the light through the pebbled glass of the high window by the front door, the blue plastic laundry basket. And not wanting to fold towels, heh. All anchored by a song. That is power

"Brand New Key," Melanie

"I don't go fast but I go pretty far..."

We just saw sugar ray in something..,but I don’t remember what it was.

I’m only mildly concerned that I have very clear memories of this song playing in my apartment long after my mother was allowed to comment on my musical tastes

Day 23: A song from the 60s

Low hanging fruit once again but whatever it’s a great song and WWDITS should be commended for bringing it back to attention.

Day 23: A song from the 60s

One of the most brilliant Halloween songs ever!!

out from his coffin Dracs voice did ring
'seems he was troubled by just one thing
opened the lid! and shook his fist!!
he said, "whatever happened to my Transylvania Twist?"

It's now the MONSTER MASH!!

Not a single one of the bonus-point words are in this absolute classic though.
@morelikeasong is this one worth a judge-awarded point?
