QuoteCat Stevens - Greatest Hits

wow, that's close! Considering Tea for the Tillerman was a staple 8-track for vacations in the early 70's, you might as well be declared the winner! But think 1975 (actually released in 74).
(and it was a greatest hits release)

I guess I must ask a question now.  Name 3 Pixies songs that Kim Deal sings lead vocals on.

Hmmmm - there's probably Gigantic from Surfer Rosa, but for me she's the "lead" on a lot of Dootlittle... might be down to my nocturnal listenings, though  ;) :-[
The trouble with the straight and the narrow is it's so thin, I keep sliding off to the side

I'm thinking James Taylor or Gordon Lightfoot?
Because you said light & snappy I'm going to go with Gordon Lightfoot?
The Very Best of Gordon Lightfoot - 1974
God will forgive them. He'll forgive them and allow them into Heaven.....I can't live with that.

I forgot about Into the White - nice.  Don't know what Kool Thang is unless you're talking about the Sonic Youth song.  Think colors and recent.
I'm not saying it's easy...walking into sweet oblivion.

Yeah, I'm talking about the sy song.  I can name a shit ton of songs Kim Gordon sang but I'm really struggeling with this third Kim Deal song.  I'm not as familiar with new Pixies.

The two great musical Kims of my youth.  One's on Doolittle (my least favorite Pixies song), one's not on any album or ep that I'm aware of.  Doolittle's La La Love You was sung by drummer David Lovering - the only other Pixie song not sung by Black/Frank/Charles that I'm aware of.

Fifi Trixibelle and Michael Hutchence
Tiger Lily and Bob Geldof

Might have switched those two?

Same mother, I used to know that one but can't remember now.

The one of Doolittle might be Silver.
The unreleased one could be Tony's Theme, which is on the live bonus disc included with Death To The Pixies.
