Just for a bit o fun, post a line or two from a song you like and see who can guess the song and the artist. Mine:

[i]I woke up Sunday morning with no way to hold my head that did'nt hurt
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad so I had one more for dessert.[/i]

    [vorlon] A darker color will get you closer to the truth[/vorlon]
  • It can only be "Sunday Morning Coming Down" by Johnny Cash. ;)

    Mine:

    I walked across an empty land,
    I knew the pathway like the back of my hand.
    I felt the earth beneath my feet,
    Sat by the river and it made me complete.
    Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
    I'm getting old and I need something to rely on.
    So tell me when you're gonna let me in,
    I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin.
  • Are you absolutely sure this thread is going to work?

    For example, [url=http://www.chicheux.ch/download/flash/growlkaraoke.swf]this well-known song[/url] actually has lyrics:

    "Fuck the world" is what he said
    And the bullet went straight through his head
    A life forsaken sufficiency
    Frustration, tensions warranty

    With blatant fury life is expelled
    From a once so livid shell

    Lifeless yet still full of life
    Death feeds the living
    Death breeds the living
    Formication beneath flesh and dirt
    Death feeds the living
    Death breeds the living

    Crisp and leathery as the bones start to show
    White fungi embrace the blackened skin
    Larvae plunge through the stomach wall
    The process of moulding begins...

    etc. :D
  • Keane - Somewhere only we know.

    Good song BTW

    Awake on my airplane
    Awake on my airplane
    My skin is bare
    My skin is theirs
    Awake on my airplane
    Awake on my airplane
    My skin is bare
    My skin is theirs
    I feel like a newborn
    And I feel like a newborn
    Awake on my airplane
    Awake on my airplane
    I feel so real
  • i dare say the best song that this group has ever written:

    Strange avenues where you lose all sense of direction
    and everywhere is Main Street in the winter sun.
    The wino sleeps cold coat lined with the money section.
    Looking like a a record cover from 1971.

    And here am I warm feet and a limo waiting.
    Shall I make us both feel good? And would a dollar do?
    But in your streets, I have no credit rating
    and it might not take a lot to be alone just like you.

    Heading up and out now, from your rock island.
    Really good to have had you here with me.
    And somewhere in the crowd I think I hear a young girl whisper:
    "Are you ever lonely, just like me?"

    No, but I needed a distraction, so hey what the heck, post up your favorite lyrics...

    From one of my favorite female musicans:

    So I ran faster
    But it caught me here
    Yes my loyalties turned
    Like my ankle
    In the seventh grade
    Running after BILLY
    Running after the rain

    These precious things
    Let them bleed
    Let them wash away
    These precious things
    Let them break their hold over me

    He said you're really an ugly girl
    But I like the way you play
    And I died
    But I thanked him
    Can you believe that sick sick
    holding on to his picture
    Dressing up every day
    I wanna smash the faces
    Of those beautiful BOYS
    Those christian boys
    So you can make me cum that doesn't make you JESUS

    These precious things
    Let them bleed
    Let them wash away
    These precious things
    Let them break their hold over me

    I remember
    Yes in my peach party dress
    No one dared
    No one cared
    To tell me where the pretty girls are
    Those demigods
    With their NINE-INCH nails and little fascist panties tucked inside the heart
    of every nice girl

    These precious things
    Let them bleed
    Let them wash away
    These precious things
    Let them break
    Let them wash away
    These these precious things
    Let them bleed now
    Let them wash away
    These these precious things
    Let them break their hold over me

    Precious
    Precious

    This is probably my favorite song ever.

    [quote]You walk along by yourself
    There's no sound, nothing is changing
    Been gone away, left you there
    Emptiness is nothing you can't share
    All those words that hurt you
    More than you would let it show
    Comes apart, by yourself
    All is well and everything is wasted[/quote]
  • On the topic of "favorite songs":

    [quote]Overhead the albatross hangs Motionless upon the air
    And deep beneath the rolling waves
    In labyrinths of coral caves
    The echo of a distant time
    Comes willowing across the sand
    And everything is green and submarine

    An no one showed us to the land
    And no one knows the wheres or whys
    But something stires and something tries
    And starts to climb towards the light

    Strangers passing in the street
    By chance two separate glances meet
    And I am you and what I see is me
    And do I take you by the hand
    And lead you through the land
    And help me understand the best I can

    And no one calls us to move on
    And no one forces down our eyes
    And no one speaks and no one tries
    And no one flies around the sun

    Cloudless every day you fall upon my waking eyes
    Inviting and inciting me to rise
    And through the window in the wall
    Come streaming in on sunlight wings
    A million bright ambassadors of morning

    And no one sings me lullabies
    And no one makes me close my eyes
    And so I throw the windows wide
    And call to you across the sky[/quote]

  • TyvarTyvar Next best thing to a St. Bernard
    I recognize A#'s as Filters "Take a Picture"

    Freejacks is Tori Amos' "Precious Things"

    And the Exiles from Pink Floyd (who I do love) "Echos"

    of course I have all three of the above in my winamp play list :D

    so I will now return the favor, 3 for 3...
    two easy ones and a third harder one.

    1

    There's a little black spot on the sun today
    It's the same old thing as yesterday
    There's a black hat caught in a high tree top
    There's a flag-pole rag and the wind won't stop


    2

    Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
    My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,
    Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
    Out of the corner of my watering eye
    A dream unthreatened by the morning light
    Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night

    There’s no sensation to compare with this
    Suspended animation, a state of bliss
    Can’t keep my eyes from the circling skies
    Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, i


    and lastly


    Oh Oh people on the earth
    Listen to the warning
    The seer he said
    Beware the storm that gathers here
    Listen to the wise man.

    I dreamed I saw on a moonlit stair
    Spreading his hands on the multitude there
    A man who cried for a love gone stale
    And ice cold hearts of charity bare.
    I watch as fear took the old men's gaze
    Hopes of the young in troubled graves
    I see no day, I heard him say
    So grey is the face of every mortal.

    Oh Oh people on the earth
    Listen to the warning
    The prophet he said
    For soon the cold of night will fall
    Summoned by your own hand.

    Oh Oh children of the land
    Quicken to the new life
    Take my hand
    Fly and find the new green bough
    Return like a white dove.

    He told of death as a bone white haze
    Taking the lost and the unloved babe
    Late too late all the wretches run
    These kings of beasts now counting their days.
    From mother's love is the son estranged
    Married his own his precious gain
    The earth will shake in two will break
    And death all around will be your dow'ry

    <@Phi> I'm going to guess season five theme, the end part. It's the closest match

    I listened to the season 3 theme and couldn't make it fit and gave up at that point.
