I thought about googling the one I don't know, but I decided that was cheating.
Here's a few from me:
"She keeps her Moet et Chandon in her pretty cabinet"
"Hello darkness my old friend"
"The screen door slams, Mary's dress waves"
"There must be some kind of way out of here, said the joker to the thief"
"You walked in to the party, like you were walking onto a yacht"
"I thought love was only true in fairy tales"
"It's been 7 hours and 15 days since you took your love away"
"The silicon chip inside her head gets switched to overload"
"Why do birds suddenly appear, every time you are near?"
"If everybody had an ocean across the USA"
"I am not in love, but I'm open to persuasion"
"Kissing like a bandit stealing time underneath a sycamore tree"
"You never close your eyes any more when I kiss your lips"
I think I'd better stop now...
"I am on a lonely road and I am travelling, travelling, travelling..."
or
"I want to break free... I want to break freeeeee..."
or
"Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really want!"
More seriously:
"I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste, a flannel for my face..."
I could have hours of fun doing this, am I allowed?
"Once I was afraid, I was petrified... to think that I could never live without you by my side..."
'AINT NO SUNSHINE WHEN SHE'S GONE'
'I LIKE NEW YORK IN JUNE - HOW ABOUT YOU?'
'STAY AWAY FROM MY WINDOW.'
'BLUE MOON.'
'DANCIN' AT THE SAVOY'
'THERE'S A SMALL HOTEL''
5. Cat Stevens
"Here I stand, head in hand, turn my face to the wall. If she's gone I can't go on feeling two-foot small."
"Depression looms I'm such a miserable fool. Stay in bed, I don't wanna go to school."
"Money, it's a gas. Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash".
"I can't seem to face up to the fact, I'm tense and nervous and I can't relax".
"A man walks down the street and says 'why am I soft in the middle now?'"
"What a drag it is getting old".
Good fun, this.
Got them all, as you would expect, bar number 4.
Don't think I know that. You will doubtless tell me that I DO - and am therefore a crap twat.
Lynx. Eleven is, of course, Pretty Vacant.
Number four, fuck, Nirvana. I have the album...
*hangs head in shame*
Oh, show me the way to the next whisky bar...
got em all, but I had to think you couldn't have an expat not mention Wonderwall, for god...
(lyrics will be mouthed at any given expat bar on any given night..
Pat -> very apt
JG -> indeed for the two of them
Sewmouse -> the animals, but I think you'll find it's past tense now and as for Gloria, I assume you like karaoke?
JG -> don't know the song but some idiots hopping around with a flute I think
Lynx -> very good but original was Cat Stevens
As for yours:-
Queen - Killer Queen
Simon & Garfunkel - Sound of Silence
Springsteen I think
Dylan - All Along the Watchtower
Fuck knows up to
Boomtown Rats - I don't Like Mondays
Carpenters - Close to You (although I'm not sure if Burt recorded it first, I know he wrote it)
Beach Boys - Surfin USA
Joan Armatrading - Love and Affection
don't know
Righteous Brothers - Loving Feeling
Ariel -> don't know the first, the second is obviously Queen and as for the Shite Girls - grrrrrrr
and not bloody Gaynor again
Pat -> The Jackson Five? oh dear. As for the others, they were back in the days of 78's I think
Wrath of Dawn -> You've Got to Hide Your Love Away - The Beatles but the second one??
Tom -> Pink Floyd - Money and the third one is Paul Simon but can't remember the song
Tippler -> the joys of answering before reading someone elses answers eh? and yours is the Doors
Laura -> I fucking hate Oasis, that's why
Goth:
Money - Pink Floyd
Psycho Killer - Talking Heads
Call Me Al -Paul Simon
Mother's Little Helper - The Stones
Goth, 'YES', Wonderous stories, off Going for the one.
"We'll gather lilacs in the spring again ..."
"Je t'aime, je t'aime, oh oui je t'aime, moi non plus ..."
"The hills are alive ..."
Goth, I think I'm too young to remember the Cat Stevens version, and I'm not a big Sex Pistols fan. You were right that it's Springsteen, Born to Run. The ones you missed were Carly Simon (You're so Vain) and Terrence Trent D'Arby (Wishing Well).
Daphne, you need to get Tippler to see the film for your last suggestion. I can lend you the DVD, and I'm sure you can entrap and suitably restrain him while he watches it.
Woe to you, Oh Earth and Sea, for the Devil sends the beast with wrath, because he knows the time is short...
Tom -> The sad thing is I've got them all except the Paul Simon one
JG -> I was thinking of Yes but got confused with that Anderson twit
Daphne -> I SOOOO do not want to see your record collection - but the last one was a horror movie wasn't it?
Lynx -> Only know as I have the guitar tab for it - Carly Simon song about Warren Beatty I believe, and as for Terry and his Darby.....
Chopski -> don't know but it sounds like a Maiden intro, possibly from the Killer album?
Goth, you're thinking of Jethro Tull!
JG -> but Wakeman does such a good impression of him (not behind the keyboard, but at the backstage parties)
There is no fucking way I am EVER watching the Sound of Music.
That would be 'ever'.
Tippler -> Julie Andrews gets naked
oh, that's the OTHER film
It was Iron Maiden, Number of the Beast!
Chopski - I've only got the live version but I thought it sounded familiar
okay - somewhere in there someone missed "nothing compares 2 u" [this was pre-texting america, BTW] by the shaved headed one.
walking into the party like you're walking on a yacht -- wasn't that "you're so vain" by carly simon? [wow, i miss lips like those]
and a monkees song, "i'm a believer"
the opening lyric is have forever tattood in my brain is:
"she never mentions the word addiction in certain company"
Feck, only got 1, 5 & 6. Should have got a lot more.
*hangs head in shame*
Yorlor -> fucking shit song sung by a lesbian, written by inch-high private eye and as for the monkees????
However, you are forgiven for mentioning the Black Crowes - She Talks To Angels (fuck, have to go and find it on the muppet-3 now)
Mr Farty -> For fucks sake man, 3 of 14 - you are the weakest link - goodbye
woah, amigo!!
what is all this hostility? they weren't even your songs... chill, buddy. [winks]
i don't know jack about the private eye and i can give a rats ass about who sinead fucks. the point was the song and the artist.
of course i won your favor in the end. minor talent i have. minor.
Yorlor -> It's not hostility, it's just me. Inch high, private eye was a cartoon - see here
As for Skinhead, I like lesbians - I'm trying really hard to be one - even taken up tennis.
For everything else, welcome to the jungle baby, we have fun and games
*pours another glass of Jack Daniels and sits waiting*
goth,
you need lesbian lessons? i'm coming over. pour the Obin, Jameson will do.
kishy,
yors
