Songs With The Elements

[Silkie]

This thread was such a smashing success on the Classic Hits board that I thought I would try it here too.

Can you think of any songs with the elements (air, water, fire, earth) in the title or even artists.

This one doesn't have any of the elements in the title or the artist's name, but it has all of them in the lyrics...

(at least, all of them that were known as of whenever in the 1960s this was written. He did cover his tracks by being sure to mention there might be more than had not been discovered...)

Those are all really good picks, and all involve either air, water, fire or earth.

The Air That I Breathe - The Hollies
Black Water - The Doobie Brothers

Three more from the periodic table:

Silver Threads and Golden Needles -- Linda Ronstadt
Tin Man -- America
Heart of Gold -- Neil Young

 

[jfrancispastirchak]

Do these work--

She's My ROCK
ROCK Me Baby
WATERloo

Listing every song mentioning "rock" is obviously silly, and rocks might not even qualify as elements on their own merits, since rocks are formations resulting from the fusion and collusion of elements. Did I just say that? ???

 

[Silkie]

They all work - even though they are from the periodic table, they are either earth or water, rocks, gold, silver, tin, all of 'em.

Air For The G String - Apollo 100
Smoke On The Water - Deep Purple
Chariots of Fire - Vangelis
Earth Angel - The Penguins or The Vogues

 

[CTListener]

Some "elemental" performers:

Iron Butterfly
Tin Tin
Andrew Gold
Silver Convention
Curved Air
The Waterboys
Firefall
Rare Earth
Pacific Gas and Electric

 

[Silkie]

They're all air, water, fire or earth elements.
