I will start it off, can you name this song and the band.

"And I've been working like a dog."

Yes it is very sad, I just wondered if he was a musician?

I know someone else writes Elton Johns lyrics but writes he writes his own music. Surely Billy Joel would have had more hits too - he was a great songwriter.

and I knew if I had my chance, that I could make those people dance.

Ah yes.Wonderful song.I had the pleasure of seeing some of Van Gogh's paintings several years ago at an exhibition.
Don McClean's Castles In The Air is quite a nice song also.It was the "b" side of Vincent I think.

Naaa, he'd just had a trim when I met him.:^O

Yes I really liked him too, friends of mine went to see Simon and Garfunkel the other night and said they were brilliant, Paul Simon must have been a classical guitarist originally as I have some of his sheet music here.
