Teh song thread.

[Ekydus]

Righto... this is a game thread. Basically there are 2 rules:

1: Don't post unless you know.
2: Keep teh thread alive!

Now, what has to be done is as follows: Each poster posts some lyrics from a song, preferably well known/ released and then we leave it to the next poster to find out what artist the song belongs to (if re-covered, give most recent) and then must post some lyrics of their own from another song. Don't make it too hard otherwise it won't work.

Good luck.

OK, I'll start:

"Cracked eggs, dead birds; scream as they fight for life..."

 

[Brunore]

RADIOHEAD - Street Spirit

My Lyrics...

"No reason to get excited,
The thief, he kindly spoke,
There are many here among us,
Who think that life is but a joke"

 

[old.Gombur Glodson]

Jimi Hendix - All Along the Watchtower

"There goes the siren that warns of the air raid
Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak
Out for the scramble we've got to get airborne
Got to get up for the coming attack."

 

[F.I.V]

Iron Maiden - Aces High

My Lyrics:

"This revelation is the death of ignorance,
Tangled in a state of suffocation,
Slave to self righteousness,
Damnation is on your lips,
From sorrow to serenity,
The truth is absolution,
From sorrow to serenity,
Its on your head."

Killswitch Engage - My Last Serenade

I thought you'd be out of my mind
And I'd finally found a way to
Learn to live without you
I thought it was just a matter of time
'til I had a hundred reasons
Not to think about you
But it's just not so
And after all this time
I still can't let go

 

[cHodAX]

'She's to blame, she seems a bit insane.
She likes it when it rains, all day long.
Happiness, is knockin' but she cries.
Then turning out the light, she runs and hides."

The Cult - Painted On My Heart


So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway, the thing is, what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes, I've ever seen

Any of about 5 covers of "Your Song"

Nice easy one:

At home, drawing pictures of mountain tops, with him on top
Lemon yellow sun, arms raised in a V
The dead lay in pools of maroon below.

Pearl Jam - Jeremy

"They load the clip in omnicolour
Said they pack the 9, they fire it at prime time
The sleeping gas, every home was like Alcatraz
And mutha fuckas lost their minds"

 

[Derric]

Rage Against The Machine - Bullet In The Head


"If you want to get your soul to heaven,
trust in me.
Don't judge or question.
You are broken now,
but faith can heal you.
Just do everything I tell you to do.
Deaf and blind and dumb and born to follow.
Let me lay my holy hand upon you."

Opiate - Tool (Shite btw)

it's real early morning
no-one is awake
I'm back at my cliff
still throwing things off
I listen to the sounds they make
on their way down
I follow with my eyes 'til they crash
imagine what my body would sound like
slamming against those rocks

 

[Derric]

Tool is never shite

 

[old.LandShark]

Seconded. Calling Tool shite and letting RATM pass in the same thread is just... oh. k.

Bjork - Hyper ballad.


and mine is

down hunting shadows
in the abyss of your mind
descending deep
beneath your vision
the one you dread the most
is there for you to find
behind the darkside
of carnation

He's also absolutely right.

 

[osy]

Hey You.... out there in the cold,
Getting lonely getting old,
Can you feel me...

 

[Jonaldo]

There's a girl running around my head
I know she makes me frown
She may be crazy, she maybe not be right
She makes me feel like
Like a...

Answer previous before you post, omg
Otherwise it'll just be a long thread of random song lyrics =P

(feel free to call me the song nazi at this point, I won't care )

 

[lakih]

Songnazi!

But i agree, you cant sing unless you know (and post the name of) the previous song.

LIKE A MOTHERFUCKER FROM HELL!!


(sorry,just had to)

 

[old.LandShark]

The Datsuns - Motherfucker from hell
(only got it cos Derric put the next line in, but nm- crappy song anyway, mwahaha)

My God it's good to see you
Another day another dollar
Another page another chapter
Ain't I one to kill the laughter
Whatever matters if it matters it matters

 

[Lurid]

One Minute Silence - Rise and Shine

I am the son and the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and the heir
Of nothing in particular

 

[Addlcove]

The Smiths - How soon is now

pfffft you skipped mine, was it to hard for you? (I´ll add a chrous)

down hunting shadows
in the abyss of your mind
descending deep
beneath your vision
the one you dread the most
is there for you to find
behind the darkside
of carnation

Chorus:
Going wild, going out of control
going past, past the border
going wild, going over the wall
going out, out of order

 

[old.LandShark]

Here's guessing it's, erm, whatever genre of music Opeth/Nightwish/etc etc are !
No idea though.

edit: found with a few mins of g00gling, but that's blatantly cheating so I'll stay schtum

Incidentally, grats on 50, don't think I said that yet

[Aoami]
