Songs About Leftovers


When I'm coming up with songs for a post, there are inevitably a handful of leftover songs that I don't have enough room for in the post, or just decided not to include for some arbitrary reason. That's not what these are. These are actual Songs About Leftovers. Didn't see that one coming, did you? Anyway...enjoy!  ~  JH

Songs About Clues

Think you know what these songs are all about? You don't have a "Clue"! Enjoy!  ~  JH



1)  Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers  ~  "Into The Great Wide Open"  (Obviously, the word "Clue" doesn't appear in the title here, but anyone familiar with this classic will recall that the phrase "a rebel without a clue" is repeated often throughout the lyrics.)




2)  Boz Scaggs  ~  "A Clue"




3)  Frente!  ~  "Clue"




4)  Bonnie Tyler  ~  "Rebel Without A Clue"




5)  Halestorm  ~  "No Clue"




6)  Melanie  ~  "I Never Had A Clue"




7)  Paul Weller  ~  "Clues"




8)  The Flaming Lips  ~  "Haven't Got A Clue"




9)  Robert Palmer  ~  "Looking For Clues"




10)  Molly Tuttle  ~  "Clue"




11)  Dramarama  ~  "Haven't Got A Clue"




12)  Röyksopp  ~  "You Don't Have A Clue"




13)  Emily Yacina  ~  "Clue"




14)  Sweet Wednesday  ~  "Lost Without A Clue"




15)  Matthew Perryman Jones  ~  "Without A Clue"




16)  The Bellamy Brothers  ~  "Rebels Without A Clue"




17)  The Dø  ~  "No Clue"




18)  Deep Sea Peach Tree  ~  "Clue"




19)  Gordon Lightfoot  ~  "Too Many Clues In This Room"




20)  Altar Boys  ~  "Have A Clue"  (What is this bargain-basement popcrap? A Christian knockoff of The Beach Boys? I'm really confused and dismayed at the results.)




21)  The 1978ers  ~  "Without A Clue"




22)  Godley & Creme  ~  "Clues"  (I don't really get the point of the album artwork here, but whatever.)




23)  Mannequin Pussy  ~  "Clue Juice"  (Weird band name. But they've got a great punk-rock sound!)




24)  Katie Melua  ~  "Looking For Clues"  (Yes, I know this is the same song as #9 above. But I LOVE Katie Melua, and her version is distinctive enough from the original to merit inclusion here. I'm sure you don't care either way.)




25)  Billy Joe Royal  ~  "Searchin' For Some Kind Of Clue"
