Clue time?

Here's the first verse:

Deep hole in the ground, the speaker encountered a divine descendent
Sauntering abreast of a certain thoroughfare
Thereupon the speaker inquired of the other’s destination
As follows the other responded

Declared, the other intends to descend upon a grange owned by a Russian-Jewish scion
To affiliate with a indigenous American music assemblage.
Must return to topsoil thereupon to manumit the immaterial force within self.

Still no takers?

Here are two more clues:

1. One-word title, mentioned only once in the song, and

2. The chorus:

The collective singers claim to be the answer to cleome's previous puzzle;
They also claim to be of yellow or yellowish-brown color.
Furthermore, they require return transportation for those identical ones that they are toward a particular plot of ground where herbs, fruits, flowers, or vegetables are cultivated.


Come on, classic rock fans: You should know this!

That's it, cleome! Also a hit single for Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, who were actually at Woodstock. Mitchell wasn't--she watched it on TV.

(I think she drew/painted the cover of the CSN&Y album that has their version of the song, as well.)

Permit Pleasurable Moments To Move As Does A Round Stone When Pushed By Gravity Down A Hill

(Note: More Than One "Classic" Song exists with this title. I can think of two off the top of my head, and I will accept either one.)

Okay, hint:

Five Words in the title.

The earlier song containing the title opens with the following lines:

Attention, all people, permit us all to enjoy ourselves

Second party (pl.) gets a single go-round on the mortal plane. After that it's all finished.

Permit Pleasurable Moments To Move As Does A Round Stone When Pushed By Gravity Down A Hill

Age is of no consequence. I insist: permit Pleasurable Moments To Move As Does A Round Stone When Pushed By Gravity Down A Hill...


The other song that's well-known and has the same title begins as follows:

Permit Pleasurable Moments To Move As Does A Round Stone When Pushed By Gravity Down A Hill

Permit such moments to impact the second party as though said party were the ball in a game of racquetball

Permit Pleasurable Moments To Move As Does A Round Stone When Pushed By Gravity Down A Hill

Permit such moments to induce comical behavior in the second party...

Cleome is close. Set is incorrect.

Actually cleome has it. I thought that the title was Fame (I'm gonna live forever) and when I first looked it up found the song named "I'm Gonna Live Forever". Now upon checking again, I see the song titled "Fame".

If I had "Fame" or "Fame (I'm gonna live forever)" as the title, my alternative title would have been:

Public estimation or popular acclaim

Okay then. Here's another:

Keep a tight grip upon an object generally perceived as straight and narrow. [Could be a rope, for example.]

First lyric:

The narrator denies the importance of the manner the second party employs when gripping the narrator

Likewise the importance of the manner the second party employs while expressing feelings of empathy

The narrator denies the importance of the manner the second party employs while interacting with the narrator's closest associates

Likewise the importance of the manner the second party employs while remaining present, even when events have concluded

The narrator denies the importance of the manner the second party employs when presenting herself/himself physically

Much less what actions the second party verbally notes s/he plans on pursuing at some future date

Additional hints. Here's the chorus:

Keep a tight grip upon an object generally perceived as straight and narrow.

Affection doesn't stick to a set schedule.


(Repeat twice.)

By the way, the title is three words long.
