♫ Name that Tune. Some song Lyric fun ♫

"Can't Buy Me Love," from the Beatles

"They call it paradise
I don't know why
You call someplace paradise,
kiss it goodbye"

'The last resort, by the Eagles" Is that correct?

"Here we go again
asking where I've been
you can see those tears are real
I'm crying."

could it possibly be Elvis? lol...actually it is a Mark James song originally, made famous by Elvis..."Suspicious Minds". A relative recorded this and had to arrange to pay royalties.

Okay, how about this one:

"I could tell you about my life
And keep you amused I’m sure
About all the times I’ve cried
And how I don’t want to be sad anymore
And how I wish I was in love"

Man of the world...Fleetwood Mac?


With you nerves in tatters
and your cockleshells shatters
and the hammers batter
down the door
You'd better run

LOL...I know every word on that album...but I will leave this one for someone else...

Run Like Hell! Pink Floyd (from The Wall)
...and now for something a bit more upbeat:


" She's a flower, I can paint her
She's a child of the sun
We're a part of this together
Could never turn around and run
Don't need no fortune teller
To know where my lucky love belongs, oh no

Cos it all begins when it ends
And we're all magic friends

She says: Hello, you fool, I love you."

c'mon join the joyride, join the joyride. Roxette...


There's a light in the valley
there's a heart all alone
and the door is always open

go away from your window
pull the shades way down low
and in a whisper words are spoken....

Hmmm...can't place tfhis one...but it made me think of the lyrics of another Roxette song while thinking about it:





Lay a whisper on my pillow
Leave the winter on the ground
I wake up lonely, there's air of silence
In the bedroom and all around

Touch me now, I close my eyes
And dream away

It must have been love but it's over now
It must have been good but I lost it somehow
It must have been love but it's over now
From the moment we touched till the time had run out

Make believing we're together
That I'm sheltered by your heart
But in and outside, I turned to water
Like a teardrop in your palm

And it's a hard winter's day
I dream away

It must have been love but it's over now
It was all that I wanted, now, I'm living without
It must have been love but it's over now
It's where the water flows, it's where the wind blows

It must have been love but it's over now
It must have been good but I lost it somehow
It must have been love but it's over now
From the moment we touched till the time had run out

Yeah, it must have been love but it's over now
It was all that I wanted, now, I'm living without
It must have been love but it's over now
It's where the water flows, it's where the wind blows

It must have been love but it's over now
It must have been love but it's over now

"I know there's a pot of gold for me
All I got to do is just believe"

Anyone? (Also, please observe Alethia's latest post in this thread, which apparently no one has gotten yet.)

ookay...finally googled Alethia's lyrics..."Slave" by James Reyne...never heard it before today...
and I googled Nucky's lyrics too, not recognising them...it's no wonder! I can't stand that song! LOL...my brain blocked them out as a defense mechanism!

here are my mystery lyrics:

Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
But you're still f***ing peasants as far as I can see
.

That would be Working Class Hero by John Lennon. (And mine from 2 posts up were Neutron Dance by Pointer Sisters lol.)

And I hope that you die
And your death’ll come soon
I will follow your casket
In the pale afternoon
And I’ll watch while you’re lowered
Down to your deathbed
And I’ll stand o’er your grave
’Til I’m sure that you’re dead

Wow, that is so utterly powerful that I had to cheat and look it up.
I won't give it away, but that song is simply incredible.
Thanks Nucky.

Also, John Lennon's song, man... the sixties bred some powerful thinkers. Where did they all go?

Barenaked Ladies! "Pinch Me"


How about this:

"Who's that lounging in my chair
Who's that casting devious stares
In my direction
Mama this surely is a dream"

I had to cheat and look up those other lyrics as well...Mr. Zimmerman..."Masters of War"

Um the Cat.....by the lounging cats.....

Have no idea...yet.

Oh I've forgotten about this. Bump it up to move it a bit. Wait, this isn't Gaia. LOL>

Macy play ground. I smell sex and candy

Had me a pidgeon by the name of fred
But i done shot him in the head
Had me a railroad up on the ridge
But i done blowed up the bridge

I believe This is the pigeon song by America. But I could be wrong.

The night we met I knew I needed you so
And if I had the chance I'd never let you go
So won't you say you love me? I'll make you so proud of me
We'll make 'em turn their heads every place we go

Be My Baby - The Ronettes

Then I ran across a monster who was sleeping by a tree
And I looked and frowned and the monster was me

Twinkle you are right
And nucky. David bowie comes to mind

Clock strikes damn near perfect at night
But it moves so slow in the morning light
King says a crown never makes a man
But We all know different

Jefferson airplane. Obviously you need a hint

Is that Devils den, or something?

Don't you ever, be sad
Lean on me, when times get bad
When the day come, and you know your down
In a river of trouble, your bout to drown

"Hold On, I'm Comin'!" Sam and Dave



Took a walk down the street.
Through the heat whispered trees.
I thought I could hear.
Hear.
Hear.
Hear.
Somebody call out my name (John)
as it started to rain.
Two spirits dancing so strange...
