Game 3 pics/gifs - guess the song title.

OMG... you're telling me this is a cover too? Of course.

I've listened to your video, and it is obviously the same song, so you are right, and you win this round! But the one I was actually thinking of is the only version I ever knew existed up till now, by The Ataris.

As to why I picked that song at that time... it happened to come on the radio yesterday morning. The opening lines are:

Nobody on the road, nobody on the beach
I feel it in the air, the summer's out of reach

And I figured if that isn't an appropriate anthem for the pandemic summer of 2020, I don't know what is!

Anyway, @Jim Klag , the next one is all yours!

What year was that made? I find it fascinating.

@Avro Arrow : musically speaking, you really need to get out more.

Me too. Or maybe I just need to put my head-phones on.

 

[Jim Klag]

Okay. Here goes.

I had to look it up (I don't always have the greatest memory for that kind of thing), but it looks like it is from 2003.

That makes them puppies, the original recording was early 80's. Gawd...I'm gettin' old.

No guesses yet?

How about Look Out Behind? Or perhaps Look Out Behind You, since it seems more grammatically correct.

Unlike me/myself and I, CCR never gets old.

I'm going to guess there's a song called Here Comes the Sun. No idea who sings it.

As to how I got it... "here" and "come" were pretty straight-forward from the clues, and "here comes" seemed to be a natural construction from those words. So I was trying to think of a song with that in the title, and I remembered a line in a song that included the phrase "here comes the sun" in the chorus. However, I quickly realized that wasn't the title of the song I was thinking of, because it was actually Gimme Sympathy by Metric:

Now, I know that Gimme Sympathy is not the answer to the puzzle. But, the actual line in the song is: "Come on baby play me something like here comes the sun", so Here Comes the Sun must be a song title! And since the clues seem to fit (son / sun), that's what I'm going with.

And if I'm right, it's all thanks to Metric!

@Avro Arrow : I think we all need to pitch in and buy you a Beatles album.

It was a Beatles song? *I* got a Beatles song?! Oh, snap!

(I guess it makes sense, since the song referenced the Beatles by name in the chorus too (along with the Rolling Stones).)

OK, this one should be super easy, barely an inconvenience:

And yes, I know this song was covered too, but for once, I am actually thinking of the original version!
