Say, isn't Ellis thinking of writing an album's worth of songs about famous people in history?

It's near freezing here in Philadelphia...with rain in the forecast for Thursday. I'll probably lose a day to it, myself.
Now Ben Franklin air-lifted up a big old kite
With a small gold key on a stormy night
But I'll strike up a candle when I need a light

Re: Fun Quiz - Guess the 'guest'
Paddy,
Who else besides you and I would be up shortly after 6am nearly cross-posting about the same song! Thankfully we both chose a different character from the song.
Here's another. Natalie Wood appears in "Goodbye Hollywood".

Karen.....darn few, I'm sure. I was happy to see your post early this morning -- allowed me another shot at the list. Figured one good turn deserved another, especially since with I Lost a Day to the Rain -- Ellis and Jela dropped a couple of names on us.
I do believe Moses, appropriately, appears in Deliver Me.

Now she puts on some music,
She asks you to choose it
You sang her back a Gershwin line.

Jesus dropped by the Martyr's Lounge......
Now Jesus don't need no introduction
He's got a famous old man
And a party for twelve, I see Cobain, He's well
He's in the Angels that Fell,
A local touring bar band.

Of the few remaining names on the list, only one is obvious to me now.
Can anyone guess which name that is?

Some of the remaining ones are hard! I'll take the easy one.
Fred Astaire dances his way into "The World Ain't Slowing Down".
I just want Mr. Paul to know I'm disappointed that Barry Manilow didn't make it to the official list...although we know Mr. Manilow has made random appearances on occasion....

OK....I can hear the line in my head about Judy Garland in the land of Oz.....I'm pretty sure that must be:
"All my heros were junkies".
But I'm not sure.

Elvis has me stumped for the most part, too.
I'll venture half a guess, tho, and say he appears in that song about the Magazines?
It's a rare rocker for Ellis........fitting I suppose!

I can't believe I made the connection........between Elvis and that song, when Ellis merely aludes to Elvis.
By the way -- at the lyrics for Breaking thru the Radio just now.....nice Van Morrison references, too!
I hitched a ride down to Tupelo
With a caravan of gypsy souls
Dancin’ in moon shine
Every song pulled me in like a life line

There's alot going on in that song, so I can see where lyrics would be hard for Ellis to grab outta thin air.
For anyone, even the most devoted of devotees, to have a clue what lyrics are due, is amazing.

Re: Fun Quiz - Guess the 'guest'
Well is anyone actually going to 'name that song' ???
....and here's a bonus question - Hank Williams appears in another song as well, you've guessed one correctly with 'Blacktop Train' but where else does he make an appearance?

I was hunting for Elvis and found the other Hank Williams!
Here's a hint: it was a cold and snowy night.....

"Parker Evans and his bride
with Elvis by their side
got married in a chapel in Vegas."
I'm sorry to jump in so late...this was a very cool quiz...thanks, Jela! I don't think I would have been able to answer this, though, without that clue from Karen.

I'm stuck!
Pretty sure it's not "The Night Hank Williams Came to Town" since that's a Johnny Cash song Ellis covers.
Right?
