Lyrics you love - a guessing game

475 replies

MrsGuyGarvey · 11/02/2015 21:03

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.

Sorry, missed why I love them - just because they help me pull myself together if I'm feeling like life's a bit shit and inclining to blame others.

Mindysgotswag · 08/10/2015 22:11

Crass - Big A, little A...Sadik?

Sadik · 08/10/2015 22:13

That's it :)

These remind me of my DS
•Dream the sweetest dream, swing from star to star, when you wake I will be here to hold you in my arms.
&
•There isn't one place
Honey, that I'd rather be
Right here in your arms
With your head lying on me
The time to go has come and gone
Why can't I? Why can't I say goodnight?

So may the bridges we burn light the way
Out of the darkness of where we have been
Though at times it may feel like a lie
We both know nothing is quite as it seems
And I know when I look into the deep blue of your eyes
Heaven will still be ours

thefutureofpolitics · 08/10/2015 23:16

Yes to Scott Walker, Mindysgotswag! Smile

Malinapalina Mystery Jets 'Radlands'!

"So in the morning I awoke
I turned my eyes towards the road
I swallowed hard and smelt the air
I cursed this world for not being fair"

Mindysgotswag · 08/10/2015 23:47

Me again!!!Grin

So let me go far - Dodgy

Mindysgotswag · 08/10/2015 23:50

I shoot the gunner first
I kill to quench my thirst
I hunt the weakest prey
Live to fly another day

Malinapalina · 09/10/2015 00:24

thefutureofpolitics
Yes, you're right....one of my favs Smile

thefutureofpolitics · 09/10/2015 01:02

malinapalina, Yay, I love that band! It is nice to find another fan! Smile
Mindysgotswag Yes to Dodgy, hoorah, and yours is Iron Maiden 'Death or Glory'! Ha, I am so glad that somebody else appreciates a bit of the Maiden!

"Well they passed a law in '64
To give those who ain't got a little more
But it only goes so far
Because the law another's mind
When all it sees at the hiring time
Is the line on the colour bar"

thefutureofpolitics · 09/10/2015 17:27

This is my first one for today:

"Mine eyes have seen the glory of the sacred wonderkind
you took me behind a disused railway line
and said "I know a place where we can go
where we are not known"
and you gave me something that I won't forget too soon".

Mindysgotswag · 09/10/2015 18:06

Future - Bruce Hornsby, The Way it is?

Mindysgotswag · 09/10/2015 18:08

These things take time - The Smiths?Smile

Love a bit of the Smiths...and Morrisey!Blush

thefutureofpolitics · 09/10/2015 19:28

Mindysgotswag Yes to Bruce Hornsby and the Range and The Smiths! Lol, I have had a massive crush on Morrissey for years! Blush Blush

Mindysgotswag · 09/10/2015 21:17

Snap!!Blush

thefutureofpolitics · 10/10/2015 16:43

I am so glad that someone agrees, people have thought I am mad in the past! Keep all the boy bands and whatever, Morrissey is gorgeous! Blush If you look on YouTube, there are new full concerts up from this year and he looks stunning on them. I definitely recommend the London Hammersmith concert.

"Won't someone give me a gun?
Oh, well, it's for my brother
Well, he writes the line, wrote right down my spine
It says, "Oh, do you believe in love there?""

Mindysgotswag · 11/10/2015 08:06

Suede, The Downers.

Love Brett Anderson's distinctive voice. Amyl Nitrate was one of my faves at college!

Mindysgotswag · 11/10/2015 08:09

Something random.......

'cause you got something special
that makes me wanna taste you
I want it all day long
im addicted like it's wrong

thefutureofpolitics · 11/10/2015 11:31

Thank goodness I have actually managed to hear some recent music because that is 'Dessert' by Dawin! Smile I absolutely love Suede! Can't wait for the new album 'Night Thoughts' in January! Animal Nitrate is a big favourite of mine too. I think my favourite Suede song might be The Wild Ones, so gorgeous and Brett looks incredibly hot in the video!

"The means are right for taking
Fade to gray
Trying to be ruthless
In the face of beauty
In this matrix
It's plain to see
It's either you or me".

Mindysgotswag · 11/10/2015 21:30

Placebo - Bruise Pristine.

Brian Molko - Mmmmm!!!Blush

Mindysgotswag · 11/10/2015 21:35

Rebuild all that you’ve broken
And now you know
I’ll leave you choking
On every word you left unspoken...

Any ideas, Future?Grin

thefutureofpolitics · 11/10/2015 22:30

It is indeed Placebo 'Bruise Pristine'! Smile Ha, and agreed, Brian Molko is gorgeous! I am so glad that somebody has the same taste as me! Smile

That is Bring Me the Horizon 'Throne'! Smile

How about?

"No carpet on the floor
And the winding cloth holds many moths
Around your Ku Klux furniture
I cum of death-head in your frock
We discuss the murder plan
We discuss murder and the murder act
Murder takes the wheel of your Cadillac
And death climbs in the back".

Mindysgotswag · 11/10/2015 23:27

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds? Deanna??

Mindysgotswag · 11/10/2015 23:34

Oh the seminal coward
Threatens to show his hand again
I can see all the exits but
I'm missing what is evident.

thefutureofpolitics · 11/10/2015 23:48

Yes, right! Smile

"It glittered and it gleamed
For the arriving beauty queen
A ring and a car
Now you're the prettiest by far"
