Leo Sayer:  Long Tall Glasses (I Can Dance)

Bill, tgo

The Hollies - Long Cool Woman (in a Black Dress)

That Leo Sayer, brought tears to me eyes... the good kind.  There was this lake, this group of friends, a beautiful day and some shrooms... I laughed so hard for so long, tears and snot.... But lord it felt good.  My buddy, out of nowhere started singing that song and... well the rest is history.

WellI didn't know Leo Sayer was well known in the states.

Jazzy, I don't remember any other songs by Leo Sayer, but this song was a big hit over here in the mid '70s.

And now, the late, great Tom Petty:  Runnin' Down a Dream

Bill, tgo.  (The first incarnation of my band Stonetrout did this tune.  It had to end a set as our original lead guitar player ALWAYS broke a string on it!)

Sting, "I Dream Of Rain".

And I also recall this one from Leo:

Eurythmics - Here Comes The Rain Again (From, Touch - 1983)

Loewe & Lerner, from the Broadway Musical "My Fair Lady":  The Rain in Spain

Hoyt Axton (and, as so often is the case with Hoyt's songs, others did it, too -and had hits with inferior covers), "I've Never Been To Spain"

Peter

Al Stewart - The News From Spain (From, Orange - 1972)

Miles Davis:  Sketches of Spain
