Song help...Not a JB song but....

Post by FINSUPinIdaho »

Wife heard a song the other day on RM.
It should have been a Jimmy song, but it was someone like Orleans or 10CC or someone in that genre. Typical heading out on vacation and never coming back kind of song.
She asked me about it and I need to play it off like I knew it and how smart I am...

Anyone have an idea of the song I am talking about? Frigging tip of my tongue and it is driving me nuts....

Happy Friday by the way!!!!!!

This by any chance? It caught my ear and I googled a week or two ago.

Only songs I ever hear by those bands on RM are Orleans' "Dancin' In The Moonlight" and 10cc's "Dreadlock Holiday" (chorus starts "I don't like reggae, I love it"). Apparently RM plays a couple more Orleans songs, but they aren't soaking in. :lol:

If you know the date and time (roughly) that she heard the song, you might be able to find it on Dogstar Radio's list: http://www.dogstarradio.com/search_play ... ur=&eampm=

Remember that times on Dogstar Radio are Eastern. Which is odd, because I think the guy that owns it lives in California.

Possibly Atlanta Rhythm Section (think it had a Atlanta/Georgia connection for some reason)? Dang it is driving me nuts. I have even seen it mentioned in a discussion here on BN.

About all the info I can remeber.

If it had a Georgia connection, maybe it was the talent-free asshats from Florida Georgia Line.

Lol...Larry, it is definitely none of that Bro-country crap. Ugh.

It is a pretty popular older band for sure.

"Outta Here"
Lets leave town on a permanent vacation
Lock up the house pack up the station wagon
Make paradise our final destination
As long as we're outta here

There ain't no time like the present they say
Lets cruise all the way down A1A
Put the top down and catch a few rays
Baby we'll be outta here


But it hasn't been played on Radio Margaritaville recently according to http://www.dogstarradio.com/search_play ... channel=24

People who ask me what I’m doing tomorrow probably assume that I even know what day of the week it is.

I don't recall ever hearing that song, but it's a good one!

You know, if Jimmy and the Reefers are going to cover other songs, they could do worse than to cover this one.

I really like this song...I think he could cover this one and get away with it, and then he could put the horrible 5 O'clock Somewhere to bed.. (though IMHO we do not need anymore covers).
