Lyrics you love - a guessing game

[MrsGuyGarvey]

Anyone fancy a game? Post some lyrics you love/resonate say why you love them and other posters guess what song they're from.

Mine is "it was cold and it rained and I felt like an actor"

Whenever it's cold and rainy (I live in the North, this is often) and I'm walking down the street I often feel like I'm in a film and it makes me think of this lyric.

The Easybeats. Friday on my mind.

Mine.....

To give you thanks for all the suffering you command
And when all is over and we return to dust
Who will be my judge and which one do I trust

Yes, it was!!! And yours was Stone Temple Pilots 'Naked Sunday'. RIP Scott Weiland (Stone Temple Pilots) and Stevie Wright (The Easybeats).

"Can't stay at home, can't stay at school
Old folks say, ya poor little fool
Down the street I'm the girl next door
I'm the fox you've been waiting for".

By the way, I'm in the recording studio with a singer I am managing on the 11th February. I will let you know when everything is up and running!

Stone Temple Pilots, innit.

How about:-

Ray Reardon, Ray Reardon, we are all doomed!

That was a good one! I really had to think about that one but Lawnmower Deth 'Spook Pery Happenings in the Music Hall'. Oh, new user name by the way ... Hola 2016!

Great, Future! Keep us updated!

Thank you Mindy, I will do! This is my first music managing thing, the first of many I hope! I'm playing guitar with her too!

Great name by the way. Nice Bowie reference!

Thank you!!!

How about?

"Look out honey, 'cause I'm using technology
Ain't got time to make no apology
Soul radiation in the dead of night".

Iggy Pop - Search and Destroy?

How about this one...?

The snake makes way through the sheets and goes inside the uterus.

It can seem like a someiyoshino; a cherry blossom petal, that dances sadly.

Yes, it was!!! And that is Dir En Grey 'Obscure'!

"I've got syphilitic hetro friends in every part of town
I don't hate them but I know them, I don't want them hanging around
I won't roll my bones for every little girl who gets on down
I got space and space got me, I should be selling it by the pound".

The Jesus and Mary Chain - Snakedriver

One of my favourite bands!

rolling empty cans down the stairway ... (don't you love that sound?) ...
whilst the thoughts of a bad social worker ran through his head ...
trying to remember what he learnt at training college ...
Lester said he wasn't allowed in here ... so why don't you get lost? ...

Pulp!!! 'Deep Fried in Kelvin'!!! Love the choice!!!

"When your sparkle evades your soul
I'll be at your side to console
When you're standing on the window ledge
I'll talk you back, back from the edge
I will turn, I will turn your tide
Be your shepherd, I swear, be your guide
When you're lost in your deep and darkest place around
May my words walk with you home safe and sound".

Glasvegas - Geraldine?

We'll never know what this is
'til we take a look inside
I'm sure we'll find what came before it dies

Any ideas?

Yes, it was! And that is Alice in Chains 'Lab Monkey'! Another good choice!

"Vengeful aspects became suspect
and bending low as if to hear
and the armies ceased advancing
because the people had their ear
and the shepherds and the soldiers
lay beneath the stars
exchanging visions
and laying arms
to waste in the dust
in the form of shining valleys
where the pure air recognized
and my senses newly opened
I awakened to the cry ..."

Patti Smith - People have the Power

How's the Studio work going Duchess?

Trouble here, trouble there
People stop just to stare
What's the use of wasting time
Just move on, leave 'em all behind

Any ideas?

We are in the studio on the 11th February, so a few weeks away yet! That was the Sex Pistols 'Silly Thing'!

How about? An extra point if you can name the actress who appears in the video for this song!

"He told me to close my eyes
My gift would be a great surprise
I saw tears were in his eyes
He never meant to hurt me
Oh, God ..."

And yes, it was Patti Smith 'People Have the Power' by the way!

Oooh, ooh, I know! It's New Order 1963 and the actress is Jane Horrocks.

Yes, TwigTheWonderKid!!!
