You are close - correct person and she was cut - but what was she doing at the time (not the mirror and Tommy was not in the scene) THIS SCENE IS REALLY POPULAR...

This person wrote and later recorded the Manford Mann's hit:
"Blinded By The Light".
(200 point question)

Oh I LOVED this song (It was played so much it was like listening to AM radoio). I always thought it was Manford Mann's hit but it was originally written by Bruce Springsteen in the early '70s. (I think I have the album he sang it on.)

My funny story about this was I thought the lyrics were "Wrapped up like a deuce" instead of "revved up like a deuce" -- Never stopped me singing it though <hee hee>

OH yeah by the way the above answer was baked beans when Ann-Margaret cut her hand during filming.

Another song written by Springsteen, but was a Manford Mann hit was Spirits In The Night.
(And later recorded by Springsteen.)

(I do remember now about the beans in the movie.)
Your go, Ms. K-wraith.

CRIPES! It was in another lifetime when I seen those.
If memory serves right:

Black: Bad mood (Thunderclouds hang above your head.
Yellow: Depressed
Yellow/Green: Neutral/Easy-going
Green: Good Mood
Blue/Green: Happy
Dark Blue-purple: "You go girl, It's your Birthday!" (Excited)

But like I said, it was another lifetime ago!
(Did you know that they changed colors according to your body temp?)

Name the cartoon show where you had to help the charcter by "drawing" on the TV. (For those kids - like me who did not have the special 'kit' to do this -- you had to use your imagination or get in trouble for coloring on the TV screen...)

There was a show like this in Ohio during the mid-late 60's called "Winkie-Dink"(?).
You had to order a clear thin plastic sheet that went over the T.V. screen and during segments of the show, you could "color" on the television set.
(Geez, that was another lifetime ago!)

Since I know more of Classic Rock trivia that most things,
I will ask this:

What event inspired the song: "American Pie"?

Scale 1(easy) - 10(hard): 4

Buddy Holly died on February 3, 1959, in a plane crash in Iowa during a snowstorm. Its rumored that the name of the plane was: American Pie.
The same plane crash that killed Buddy Holly also tragically took the lives of Richie Valens ("La Bamba") and The Big Bopper ("Chantilly Lace.") Since all three were so prominent at the time, February 3, 1959, became known as "The Day The Music Died."

This has to be one of the longest songs and our local Karaoke company won't even have it available during Homedays (It was actually my son who caused this - he loves this song!)
