Answer: "Dance the Night Away".

"Dance the Night Away" was the first top twenty U.S. hit for the band.
It was not played live while Sammy Hagar was the vocalist.

Here's a sample of the lyrics,

"Have you seen her?
So fine and pretty,
Fooled me with her style and ease,
And I feel her from across the room,
Yes it's love in the third degree".
7. Which Bob Seger song was inspired by Springsteens' "Jungleland"?

Answer: "Night Moves"

Springsteen's album "Jungleland" inspired him to write "Night Moves".
It is also said the song came about so quickly, the only ones left were Segers bassist and drummer.
The ending is my favorite part of the song,

"I awoke last night to the sound of thunder,
How far off I sat and wondered,
Started humming a song from 1962,
Ain't it funny how the Night Moves,
When you don't seem to have as much to lose,
Strange how the Night Moves,
With autumn closing in...."
8. Who sang a "Lonely Ol' Night" was custom made for two lonely people"?

He become the champion of the common man. His music tells the experience of farm life and life in general " In the Heartland."
I had the pleasure of seeing him preform in the early eighty's, it was the best concert I had ever seen.

Here are a few lyrics from "Lonely Ol' Night"....

" It's a lonely ol' night,
Can I put my arms around you?
It's a lonely old' night,
Custom made for two lonely people like me and you"....

The Stones were to appear on "The Ed Sullivan Show",when Mr.Sullivan said they were not to sing "Let's Spend The Night Together" because of the suggestive nature.
Eventually a compromise was struck, Jagger was to say the words "Let's Spend Some Time Together" instead.
But like Morrison, Jagger was defiant and said the original lyrics.
Needless to say, The Stones were never asked to appear on his show again.
10. "She was a fast machine, She kept her motor clean She was the best damn woman I had ever seen" These are lyrics to a song by which band?
