Hi Hartmut,

Kind of you to say so. Thanks.

Hi Everyone,

Though not exclusive to archaeology, a word that is much associated with
that field appears in a song. Please name the song that contains this word.

Hi Steven,

Is it censorship? Is it censorship? No, it's excavation. No, it's excavation. Is this leading somewhere? Yes. We're going down the lane. Is this going somewhere? Into the garden. Into the backyard. We're walking down the driveway. Are we moving towards.... We're in the backyard.

Good thought, anny!
It doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to B4real ~ me
Attitude is a self-fulfilling prophecy ~ me ...... The magic of art is the truth of its lies ~ me ...... Only left-handers are in their right mind!

Hi,

Each of the three answers given qualifies as correct, though the one I've in mind
hasn't been unearthed (archaeological pun) yet.

To continue with the theme of artifacts, now name another song that contains several lines which tell of the preservation of a variety of artifacts.

I don't know. Did he? - If not, he's probably the only one who didn't cover "Hallelujah ".

But it's not the song I had in mind.

A hint: Bowie performed it in 1968 or 1969. That should narrow it down.
