Need help with a song


My mom says I imagined this. I could swear that for some special, on MTV or something, Cinderella did a cover of Midnight Special. I can hear Tom Keifer singing it in my head.

Am I nuts? Am I remembering something that never happened? And if I'm not nuts, does anyone have any clue where I could find the song?

I too can hear it in my head, was it Cinderella or a sound alike? For some reason I want to say there was a video of the band in the back of an old pick up driving thru the country singin it?

I don't remember a video, but that doesn't mean there wasn't one. That could've also been Heartbreak Station. I don't remember the band playing in the back of a truck, but it's been so long since I've seen it, I could just be forgetting that part. I remember the train station, and I think the whole video was done in sepia or B&W.

But, I can hear the song in my head. Has any other 80's band done a cover of it?

Yeah, I've heard the CCR one. It's good, but it's not the same as the one I hear in my head.

Sorry.  Could you be thinking of "Shelter"?  "We all need...  a little shelter...", which sounds a little like "Midnight Special"  ?

Hmm.  It's worth asking, right?

P.S. - Any progress with your "Please Don't Go" song?

I think I gave up on that one.



I have spent the better part of the afternoon searching Cinderella / Midnight Special everything and have not found a thing.


I put in a request for shelter.

 LS! I found the parody version of the song Daddy Please don't go. But I'm sure the actual music (not the words is what I'm trying to remember)?? Or Like Molly said, did I imagine it.

No, I know Shelter, that's my favorite Cinderella song. So I know that's not what Molly was thinking of.

Finally - a real clue! But unfortunately, it isn't familiar to me at all - sorry! Can you write that website & ask them?

I've heard this song before, but I didn't think it was a parody. So I'm no help either, sorry!

Hi LS, no I kind of forgot about it. I think it must have just been one of those songs that sounds like something else.
