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.

Oops, I really should have waited for yours but had that one planned!

That is Stone Sour 'Peckinpah'! Love the choice!

I get to think about what might've been
And what may yet come true
And I get to pass the rainy miles
Thinking of you

Soul Asylum 'Runaway Train'

New Model Army 'Green and Grey'!!!

Kiss them for me - Souxsie and the Banshees

I wanna taste love and pain
I wanna feel pride and shame
I don't wanna take my time
Don't wanna waste one line

Yes, right! And yours is The Struts 'Could Have Been Me'

Something random. Hint: Glam rock and Morrissey endorsed ...

"Who was that sneaking up the stairs
Taking a hairpin from her hair
A vision of the locks fallin' down
Crossed my mind and played with the sound
Of tapping gentle tapping ..."

Thefutureofpolitics, yep!!! My favourite song ever

I love your taste in music, New Model Army are so underrated!

I will leave you with this one and hopefully catch you later ...

"In your white lace
And your wedding bells
You look the picture
Of contented new wealth".

thefuture The Bitterest Pill - Style Council

Redannie - another Billy Bragg New England lyric.

whattheseithakasmean Yes!!!

How about some random 90s indie?

"Making red flares, solar boy
Living in a hollowed out asteroid, paranoid
Be on-looking, heavenly, a proto-revolutionary
Entering a chemists, she was looking for a sedative"

Kewpies Like Watermelons?

Yes!!! Urusei Yatsura 'Kewpies Like Watermelon'! I loved that band so much!

Here's my first one for today ...

"Take a look where you're livin'
You got the army on the street
And the R.U.C dog of repression
Is barking at your feet"

Stiff Little Fingers - Alternative Ulster, Future?

This band is seriously uncool but I've loved this song for years.

'Why sing a lonely song?
The whole world knows that love goes wrong
Why bruise a heart that isn't broken?
It isn't broken, it can't be broken

Life's just a show for free
Come along and watch with me
The only sins are words unspoken
Words unspoken, never spoken'

Supertramp - Words Unspoken, Biscuit?

But I kink it up
There's no flawless education just a stupid degree
The feeling of growing so far from myself
I can't reach, I can't reach, I can't reach
So brush it off, 'cause I wanted that
There's no dusting up

Mindy

Why thank you biscuit!

Love Song for a Vampire, Annie Lennox

A beautiful song!
