Greatest ONE LINE from a song!

[Clawdy]

For me, it's :
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose. (Me And Bobby McGee )

I would give you my finest hour, the one I spent watching you shower".

Not much is so much more than nothing - Tina Dico, One

Take a good look at these crow's feet sitting on the prettiest eyes - The Beautiful South, Prettiest Eyes

The freedom that you wanted back is yours for good, I hope you're glad - The Beautiful South, A Little Time
(And many more Beautiful South lyrics)

In the paper today tales of war and of waste but you turn right over to the TV page - Crowded House, Don't Dream It's Over

Pulp have got some amazing lyrics. I think my favourite is "You can take your Year in Provence and shove it up your arse" from I Spy.

Is a dream a lie that don't come true or is it something worse

'Cause you see black and white
And I see red

Who let in the rain (Cyndi Lauper)

If I hadn't seen such riches, I could live with being poor

"So casually cruel in the name of being honest."

I know people like that.

Think of the boy in the bubble and the baby with the baboon heart - Paul Simon (in fact every line of the song is awesome)

The first time ever I saw your face - Roberta Flack

You've been cold to me so long
I'm crying icicles instead of tears

Meatloaf

If you're under him,you ain't getting over him.
Dua Lipa

"Do you want the truth or something beautiful"

Paloma Faith

You who are so good with words
And at keeping things vague

diamonds and rust
Joan Baez

Paul Simon is really a poet who sings.

"It's a turn around jump shot, it's everybody jump start.
Every generation throws a hero up the pop charts"

Should be taught in school history lessons.

"This is Radio Clash on pirate satellite.
Orbiting your living room, cashing in the bill of rights"

a friend with weed is better

'Cause I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams.

Hello darkness, my old friend:
The Sound of Silence

I've been undressed by kings and I've seen some things that a woman ain't s'posed to see...
🤣 A classic.

Does she know how you told me you'd hold me until you died?

Yes these lyrics are incredible.

We did the lyrics in English back in the mid 70s!

You can't catch love with a net or a gun

What did I get right to deserve someone like you.

How wonderful life is now you're in the world.

And the trippers of the light fantastic bow down hoe down, spray their pheromones on, this perfumed uniform.

He left no time to regret
Kept his dick wet - Back To Black,Amy Winehouse
The imagery of that line.

Just fabulous

Alan Jackson wrote a song that makes me cry just about every time I hear it or think about it.

Blue Ridge Mountain Song

About a young couple who meet, fall in love and marry and in the evenings she'd sit under the little porch light and sing a little Blue Ridge Mountain Song, and he'd just hum along..

but she falls ill and dies and the husband is left alone and Alan Sings:

Now he lives there all alone
In the house that they call home
In his heart there lies a void
From the absence of her voice
And he lays down every night
And dreams about that front porch light

And my heart breaks and I cry. Like proper big mess up my face type crying.

It's a beautiful song. I love it so much. But I can't listen to it. 🤣
