A Dozen Of Dimes
For not particular reason, I started thinking of songs that mention dimes. Including:
  • "My Hometown" by Bruce Springsteen
    I was eight years old, running with a dime in my hand....

  • "Downtown Train" by Rod Stewart
    I'm shining like a new dime....

  • "Operator" by Jim Croce
    You can keep the dime.

  • "Raspberry Beret" by Prince
    I was working part time at the five and dime...

Okay, that's not a dozen, but I do have comments enabled here. You help me round out the list, okay?

Jukebox - Don't put another dime in the jukebox I don't wanna hear that song no more

There. That brings you up to six.

Jewel, "Down So Long"
And a blind man on the corner
Said, it's simple,
Like flipping a coin
Don't matter what side it lands on
If it's someone else's dime

Do you get the sense my blog is not a "community" and instead is a large contingent of Google users looking to see Samus Aran naked?

"The Wall Street Shuffle" by 10cc

"Jenny Says" by my favorite band, Cowboy Mouth

A dime's a nickel and a nickel's none, I throw myself into the Sunday sun

But they only cost a dime "

Please, Mister, Please - Olivia Newton John

If I had a dime for every time I held you
Though you're far away, you've been so close to me
I could swear I'd be the richest girl in Nashville
Maybe even in the state of Tennessee

Much better, friends. Thanks.

How about The Drifters: "On Broadway"?
But how're ya gonna make some time
When all you got is one thin dime
And one thin dime won't even shine your shoes

It's a twofer.

"Dime" by Cake


I'm a dime
I'm fine
And I shine
I'm freshly minted
