As much as I like to complain that we’ve already done every single topic under the sun as far as Request Line is concerned, from time to time I realize that isn’t quite the case. Case in point: a certain anniversary is coming up and as we were discussing how to properly commemorate it, I realized that the topic “days” has never been done. Nothing terribly complicated, just songs about “days” of some sort. Strange days. Fri-days. Days of wine and roses. The first day of your life. It’s a pretty rich class.
So without further ado, let’s cut loose and get to requestin’. Sorry I don’t have a more entertaining lead-in to contribute – I’ve been the belle of the ball as far as contract work is concerned lately – but stay tuned next week as I’ll be compiling an edition of “Cabin Fever” where we share some slices of our current life, along with vaccination experiences from those of us who have been lucky enough to join the club.
I’ll get us started with a request from our old buddy Trent Green.

Do band names count?

Technically I still have tickets for the end of August at Red Rocks for these guys.
I’ll see what happens.

This the low-hanging fruit:

‘Course the low hanging fruit is often the sweetest… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usNsCeOV4GM
Especially since it has already been picked. 🙂
That fruit is already on the ground and rotting.
But enough about Tammy’s attempts to get Andy to eat a few tomatoes.
Well shit. Missed it. Derp.
No worries, I did the same below with the Cure.
Thanks. That makes me feel less of an idiot. However, now I’m doubting my eyes… Has nobody done Jimi’s version of “Daytripper”?
Yeah, I’m going after the low hanging fruit here…. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-btv-7GkVk0
Nothing like some nice Hooters:

Is this a reverse double shot? Different song, different band, same title:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-JhtQYaKOM
In any event, might as well do a double shot of Doug and the Slugs:

Guillotines? Too European. Giant scissors which use monster trucks to work! Now that is ‘Murican.

Since we were talking about Jimmy Buffett in the cocktail thread, I’m going to serve up a quintuple shot to cover every day of the week.
Let’s begin our week:

For Tuesday and Wednesday (“hump day”) let’s send out a call on the Coconut Telegraph:

School of fish – Three strange days.

Good tune. Let’s DOUBLE SHOT this up.

You missed a DOUBLE SHOT opportunity with the Cloud Nine song below!
Really did not want to sully that song with this one. This was one of my dad’s favorite songs for some reason.
Probably the first appearance of Carroll O’Connor on Request Line
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GI46_zBGv1A
And the alternate version

“The beer I had for breakfast wasn’t bad, so I had one for dessert”
Like his version much better than Johnny Cash’s
Nicely done, Rikki.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIitQNXVgb8
Great thing about seeing these guys in concert, every song starts up, and you’re like “Oh yeah forgot about this song which rocks WOOOOOOOO” and then you drink more beer and the cycle repeats for two hours and dammit I miss live music.

There’s like infinity songs that fit this theme. DOUBLE SHOTS ARE EVERYWHERE!

Days not in title. Fits though. I’m a dumb. Here’s the Clash:

Best tribute to tWBS. Except song’s too good.
Door gently opens
Man in a tuxedo and top hat steps in
“Let’s bring some culture to this place. A nice number from a musical shall be fitting, indeed.”
https://youtu.be/hBIZEL8UBAI
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyKielhRbfg
Technically this might be a double-shot
A self-contained double shot is worth more.
I often take my baby by the heel and do the next thing that I feel.

Yes, but do you do it with an amethyst in your mouth?
Could be in the handful of “If you have to hear to ONE salsa number”
