In this one you choose a song. You then post some of the lyrics and wait for the next person to post the next line(s) of that song (and optionally the title and band/artsist).

If they guess correctly - they get to choose the next song and so it goes.

So here's the first one:

The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling
Way down in the valley tonight
There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye
And a blade shining oh so bright

There's evil in the air and there's thunder in the sky
And a killers on the bloodshot streets
And down in the tunnel where the deadly are rising
Oh I swear I saw a young boy
Down in the gutter
He was starting to foam in the heat

Bat Out Of Hell - Meatloaf


On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night

Eagles- Hotel California

There she stood in the doorway; I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself this could be heaven or this could be hell
Then she lit up a candle, and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor, I thought I heard them say
Welcome to the hotel california
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the hotel california
Any time of year, you can find it here


If you're havin' trouble with your high school head
He's givin' you the blues
You wanna graduate but not in 'is bed
Here's what you gotta do -
Pick up the phone
I'm always home
Call me any time
Just dial
36 24 36 hey
I lead a life of crime

Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
Dirty Deeds and they're Done Dirt Cheap

You got problems in your life of love
You got a broken heart
(She's) He's double dealin' with your best friend
That's when the teardrops start - fella
Pick up the phone
I'm here alone
Or make a social call
Come right in
Forget about him
We'll have ourselves a ball

Dirty Deeds Done Cheap AC/DC

Faces filled with joy and cheer
What a magical time of year
Howdy Ho! It's Weasel Stomping Day

Put your Viking helmet on
Spread that mayonaisse on the lawn
Don't you know it's Weasel Stomping Day

All the little girls and boys
Love that wonderful crunching noise
You'll know what this day's about
When you stomp a weasel's guts right out

So come along and have a laugh
Snap their weaselly spines in half
Grab your boots and stomp your cares away
Hip hip hooray, it's Weasel Stomping Day

Weasel Stomping day- Weird Al


Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time

It's something unpredictable,
But in the end is right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

Green Day, Time of Your Life

My, My, My, My, My.
Good Things Are Coming My Way, Yay, Yeah

Darling,
Won't You Lend Me Your Ear
And I'll Whisper
Things You Might Wanna Hear
Well It Looks Like
After Such a Long Time
Good Things Are Coming My Way,
My-My Way

Thrills Me
When You're Walking With Me
And It Chills Me
When You're Talking With Me
My Hand Looks Like
After Such A Long Time
That Good Things Are Coming My Way
Yay, Yeah

P.J Proby - Good Things Are Coming My Way.

When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty, will I be rich
Here's what she said to me:

uhoh what did the mother say? :)

Que Sera, Sera! Whatever will be, will be....
The future's not ours to seeeeeeee......
Que Sera, Sera


OK, seeing as I had to spell in foreign, you buggers can too.

/me flies... very quickly indeed!!

Not fast enough clocky, you're weighed down with birthday cake!

/me pings TF's second hand.

Umm actually it's:

Mann, wer haette das gedacht
Dass es einmal soweit kommt
Wegen 99 Luftballons

99 Luftballons by Nena - it was even done in English - but the original sounded much better.

Try this:

Meet me down by the jetty landing
Where the the pontoons bump and spray
I see the others reading, standing
As the Manly Ferry cuts its way to Circular Quay
Hear the Captain blow his whistle

So long you've been away
I miss our early morning wrestle
Not a very happy way to start the day
She don't like that kind of behaviour
She don't like that kind of behaviour

the song's called 'Reckless' but i'm not sure what the artist's name is..
google says: Paul Kelly & The Messengers??


Saw his mama just the other day
Said he’d been through a spell
‘Had a bad break up
Thinks he’s on his way up
It’s hard to tell
She said
“I think it’d do some good if you call him every now and then,
You see he’s been through some things and I’m thinking
He could really use a friend”

In my mind, I'll always be his lady.
In my mind, I'll always be his girl.
Only time can tell if I'm his lady.
But in my mind, I'll always be his girl.

That is "In My Mind" by Heather Headley.

As for mine....

We are forty against hundreds
In someone else's bloody war
We know not why we're fighting
Or what we're dying for
They will storm us in the morning
When the sunlight turns the sky
Death is waiting for it's dance now
Fate has sentenced us to die.

Ireland I am coming home
I can see your rolling fields of green
And fences made of stone
I am reaching out won't you take my hand
I'm coming home Ireland


Ireland- Garth Brooks

hmmmmm....

I've dealt with my ghosts and I've faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
I've found you fine strength in your moments of weakness
For once I'm at peace with myself
I've been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long
I'm movin' on

I've lived in this place and I know all the faces
Each one is different but they're always the same
They mean me no harm but it's time that I face it
They'll never allow me to change
But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong
I'm movin' on
Rascal Flatts - I'm Moving On ^

There must be some word today
From my boyfriend so far away
Please Mister Postman, look and see
If there's a letter, a letter for me!

I've been standin' here waitin' Mister Postman

So patiently
For just a card, or just a letter
Sayin' he's returnin' home to me

(Mister Postman)
Mister Postman, look and see
(Oh yeah)
If there's a letter in your bag for me
(Please, Please Mister Postman)
Why's it takin' such a long time
(Oh yeah)
For me to hear from that boy of mine

So many days you passed me by
See the tears standin' in my eyes
You didn't stop to make me feel better
By leavin' me a card or a letter

(Mister Postman)
Mister Postman, look and see

(Oh yeah)
If there's a letter in your bag for me
(Please, Please Mister Postman)
Why's it takin' such a long time

(Why don't you check it and see one more time for me, you gotta)
Wait a minute
Wait a minute
Wait a minute
Wait a minute
(Mister Postman)
Mister Postman, look and see

(C'mon deliver the letter, the sooner the better)
Mister Postman

From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, stepped into the sun
There's more to see than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done
There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round

I was the clown
And she was the dancer
We both knew it wouldn't work
But we took our chances.

What I can't recall
Is if there was a girl at all
Or was it my imagination?
I still remember
All of those faces
And now all I have is memories.

Michael Jackson - Carousel

-----------------------------------------------

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive

Oooh oooh ooh I KNOW!!!!!!!!
Hahaha. It's the first one I knew. :D

Iris - Googoo dolls.

--------------------

Do you wanna be somebody else?
Are you sick of feeling so left out?
Are you desperate to find something more?
Before your life is over

That would be Simple Plan's Welcome to My Life

Are you stuck inside a world you hate?
Are you sick of everyone around?
With their big fake smiles and stupid lies
While deep inside you're bleeding

Try this one:

Every day needing love and satisfaction
Now you're lying next to me, giving it to me

I believe in miracles,
Where you from? You sexy thing!

Hot Chocolate, You Sexy Thing


Next one:

Wheeeeeeeeen theeeeeeee moon hits your eye like a bigga pizza pie...
?


Considering everyone will get this song instantly, I don't think it's ruining anything to send you this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aS6-b7CONDI) fantastic link of the man himself singing it. Enjoy!

If a fish hits your eye.
Rips it out and you die.
That's a Moray?

that's amoreeee
when the world seems to shine,
like you've had too much wine
that's amoree!

Ok movin on, this one's pretty easy:


Everybody's talking all this stuff about me
why don't they just let me live
Oh oh oh i don't need permission
Make my own decisions
....

Britney Spears - My Prerogative (Could have sworn it was perogative :D)

That's my prerogative
that's my prerogative
(it's my prerogative)

--------------

it's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
And it must have been so bad
Cause living with me must have damn near killed you

I'm sorry tash, did you say Britney Spears?
WRONG:razz:

Could it be Bobby Brown- My prerogative? :?:

as for Tasha's- How you remind me- Nickelback

And this is how, you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how, you remind me
Of what I really am

Ok my turn:

When it rains it pours and opens doors
And floods the floors we thought would always keep us safe and dry
And in the midst of sailing ships we sink our lips into the ones we love
That have to say goodbye

And as I float along this ocean / I can feel you like a notion that won’t seem to let me go

When I Look to the Sky by Train

Trams cars and taxis, like a wax-works on the move
carrying young girls past me, but none of them are you

Am I ever gonna see your face again?
Without you near me I got no place to go
wait at the bar, maybe you might show Am I ever gonns see your face again

Am I ever gonna see your face again -American Heartbreak

Lights go down
It's dark
The jungle is your head
Can't rule your heart
I'm feeling so much stronger
Than I thought
Your eyes are wide
And though your soul
it can't be bought
your mind can wander

American Heartbreak - Who the hell are they? Did they do a cover of it? THE ANGELS wrote and sang the original.


Hello, hello (Hola)
I'm at a place called Vertigo (Donde esta?)
It's everything I wish I didn't know
Except you give me something
I can feel, feel

U2's Vertigo from the How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb album.

well he's a steel town disciple
he's a legend of his kind

NB: If you google this you may not find it because MOST of the muppets who post lyrics cannot spell disciple correctly. And don't even think about suggesting that anyone other than the former Cold Chisel lead singer owns this song.

he's running like a cyclone
across the wild mid western sky
oh oh oh he's a working class man

Jimmy Barnes - Working class man. ^


You've been messin' where you shouldn't have been a messin'
and now someone else is gettin' all your best.

btw, don't even think of sayin something like Jessica Simpson, i'll slap you if ya do:razz:

There could be only one and it's certainly not that bimbo.

These boots are made for walking, and that's just what they'll do
one of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you.

Well I don't know why I came here tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain't right,
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs,

Clowns to the left of me
Jokers to the right
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you!

Steelers Wheel, Stuck in the Middle.

Hey Andy, did you hear about this one? Tell me, are you locked in the punch?
Hey Andy, are you goofing on Elvis? Hey baby, are we losing touch?

If you believed they put a man on the moon, man on the moon
If you believe there's nothing up my sleeve, then nothing is cool

REM's Man on the Moon ;o)

Rumour spreadin a-round in that texas town
bout that shack outside la grange
And you know what Im talkin about.

Just let me know if you wanna go
To that home out on the range
They gott lotta nice girls


ZZ Top - La Grange
:)


Making your way in the world today
takes everything you got.
Taking a break from all your worries
Sure would help a lot
Wouldn't you like to get away?

Sometimes you want to go
Where everybody knows your name,
and they're always glad you came.
You wanna be where you can see,
our troubles are all the same
You wanna be where everybody knows
Your name.

Where everybody knows your name' - Gary Portnoy & Judy Hart Angelo


--

I've been a fool before
Wouldn't like to get my love caught
In the slammin' door
How about some information -pleeeeaaaaaseeeeee.

:biggrin:

Straight up now tell me
Do you really want to love me forever oh oh oh
Or am I caught in a hit and run
Straight up now tell me
Is it gonna be you and me together oh oh oh
Are you just having fun

straight up- Paula Abdul

Everything about you is how i'd want to be
your freedom comes so naturally
everything about you resonates happiness
now i wont settle for less

Give me all the peace and joy in your mind
I want the peace and joy in your mind
Give me the peace and joy in your mind

Hmm - not a favourite - Muse's ordinary song - BLISS

~~~~~

You don't have money or a fancy car
And you're tired of wishin' on a falling star
You gotta put your faith in a loud guitar

God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you
Gave rock and roll to everyone (oh yeah)
God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you
Put it in the soul of everyone

'god gave rock 'n' roll to you' by 'Kiss'



And now were flyin through the stars
I hope this night will last forever
Oh oh oh oh
:embarrassed:

Have not googling.. am trying to remember.
*Yes, I know this song :razz*

Ain't nobody
Loves me better
Makes me happy
Makes me feel this way

Andd I think someone else did it originally but Liberty X.. er.. *has to google name*
Ain't Nobody

I'm not saying it's your fault
Although you coulda done more

Liberty X did a remake?
oh I ment the original Chaka Khan version, but that's ok tooo :p

Oh you're so naive yet so
How could this be done
by such a smiling sweetheart
Oh and your sweet and pretty face
its such an ugly word
for Something so beautiful

The Kooks - Naive.

This song is grrreeeat:

It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you do...

Hold the line! Love isn't always on time! (No no no :P)

Toto, ofcourse

She records the rise and fall
of every soldier passing
the only soldier now is me
i'm fighting things i cannot see
i think it's called my destiny

I hope I got that right, it was from the top of my head

No one knows Suzan Vega?

I regret recognising it, but it's "I'm never ever gonna quit 'cause quitting just ain't my stick"
Barry white

>> well I help her with her baggage but her baggage is so heavy

oops i meant Paul Simon(they mates?)

........I hear the plane is ready by the gateway to take my love away.
And I can't believe that she really wants to leave me and it's getting me so,
It's getting me so.
Airport by Motors.....??

>>>When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
When you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on

Don't let yourself go, 'cause everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes.

Would you believe it was the song my clock radio woke me up with this morning? REM's Everybody Hurts

>> Kicking push bikes after dark

Baggy trousers, dirty shirt
Pulling hair and eating dirt
Teacher comes to break it up
Back of the 'ead with a plastic cup.

Oh what fun we had
But, did it really turn out bad
All I learnt at school
Was how to bend not break the rules
Oh what fun we had
But at the time it seemed so bad
Trying different ways
To make a difference to the days.

Baggy trousers, baggy trousers, baggy trousers
Baggy trousers, baggy trousers, baggy trousers

MADNESS - THE ABSOLUTE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD
Baggy Trousers - Go Google the lyrics I bet I have them all correct:biggrin:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You know people when you do find that somebody
Hold that woman, hold that man
Love him, hold him, squeeze her, please her, hold her

Squeeze and please that person, give em all your love
Signify your feelings with every gentle caress
Because its so important to have that special somebody
To hold, kiss, miss, squeeze and please

No need for Google there, BM. All correct -haha. I knew you'd be the one to get it.

No clue by the way, TLB :( ^

It's Tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time

haha i love that bit in white chicks

RunDMC - its Tricky

Okay heres mine:
Don't let your friends tell you why
Cause I'm a bad bad bad - I'm the one
Oh, but baby you can turn it on

She don't love me like you
She don't know what you do
And it's so hard
She don't care what you say
So just say it, say it anyway
It's so hard

Well......... not quite - you actually need to go back to the start and check the rules - you need to add the next line - title and artist isn't the only part...........

The Corrs 1999:
War is all around us
My mind says prepare to fight
So if I gotta die
I'm gonna listen to my body tonight




And for mine:
Mmm... Yummy: :smile:

She rings like a bell through the night
And wouldn't you love to love her?
She rules her life like a bird in flight and who will be her lover?

All your life you've never seen
a woman taken by the wind
Would you stay if she promised you heaven?
Will you ever win?
Will you ever win?

She is like a cat in the dark
And then she is the darkness
She rules her life like a fine skylark
And when the sky is starless


Fleetwood Mac - Rhiannon ^



Maybe you're just like my mother,
she's never satisfieeed

yupyup, it's an easy one, i know.:biggrin:

Ah I see where I've gone wrong there!

She is like a cat in the dark
And then she is the darkness
She rules her life like a fine skylark
And when the sky is starless

Maybe you're just like my mother,
she's never satisfieeed

Err.. Pnigh are you there?
I'm just gonna put another one up, this thread's gone dead...

Ooh, I bet you're wondering how I knew
About your plans to make me blue...

:razz:

With some other guy that you knew before.
Between the two of us guys
You know I love you more.

Marvin Gaye - I Heard It Through The Grapevine


Staring at the blank page before you,
open up the dirty window,
let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions

Natasha Bedingfield - Unwritten

Lyrics from memory - let me check.
Okay well according to seeklyrics.com it's Release your innovations, then Release your inner visions.
Idk what the real one is in that case, I'd always assumed it to be inhibitions.


When record shops were still on top
And vinyl was all that they stocked
And the super info highway was still drifting out in space

info highway? i dont know that song

sitting in the grass laying side
by side you can be my baby

You have to get the rest of the lyrics first... you could google them if you don't know :)

I believe it was this kind of thing that led to The Police writing De Do Do Do De Da Da Da

Stuart Copeland: We need to write more lyrics
Sting: I don't want to


"I wish I was a punk rocker" - Sandi Thom

Kids were wearing hand me downs
And playing games meant kick arounds
And footballers still had long hair and dirt across their face



Okay, try this one ...

Long shot of that jumping sign,
Visible shivers running down my spine.
Cut to the baby taking off her clothes.
Close-up of the sign that says,"We never close"

and on the side it says intill friday
and then in the bed we lay

sign - ???????

ok for the lyrucs i say is in my first post in this thread

reecer6, the idea is to give the next lyrics in the song of the previous poster before putting your own.

You need to find out the name of this song, then tell us what the following lyrics are. If you're right, you then get to place lyrics from another song for us to guess.

Long shot of that jumping sign,
Visible shivers running down my spine.
Cut to the baby taking off her clothes.
Close-up of the sign that says,"We never close"

You snatch a tune, you match a cigarette.
She pulls the eyes out with a face like a magnet
I don't know how much more of this I can take
She filing her finger nails while they're dragging the lake

Duran Duran - Watching The Detectives??


here's mine:

sometimes my tries,
are outside the lines
We've been conditioned to not make mistakes,
but I can't live that way

lol ichi look a few posts up ;)

staring at the blank page before you
open up the dirty window
let the sun illuminate
the words that you can not find, reaching
for something in the distance,
so close you can almost taste it
release you inner visions

feel the rain on your skin!
no one else can feel it for you
only you can let it in
no one else , no else can speak the words on your lips
drench yourself with words unspoken
live your life with arms wide open
today is where your book begins,
the rest is still unwritten - natasha bedingfield :))

...and now your're starting to critisize little things I do.

let's see if you know that one. it's a classic, love it!

Yup, they did ...

Righteous Brothers: You've LosT That Loving Feeling

And now your're starting to critisize little things I do.
It makes me just feel like crying, (baby).
'Cause baby, something in you is dying.


Try this one ...

It's on America's tortured brow
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow.
Now the workers have struck for fame
'Cause Lennon's on sale again.

lol ichi look a few posts up ;)
:embarrassed:


See the mice in their million hordes
From Ibeza to the Norfolk Broads
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
To my mother, my dog, and clowns
But the film is a saddening bore
'Cause I wrote it
ten times or more
It's about to be writ again
As I ask you to focus on

David Bowie - Life On Mars?
(u seems to like all the oldies, fender. lol. =X )


Try this:

I just got to get away from the haters and the instigators
Theres back-stabbers and money-grabbers
Users and abusers and they all wear smilin faces

Wang Lee Hom - Not Your Average Thug

No Crystale in the tub
Or iced out Spreewell dubs
I'm really not your average thug


If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall

oh it's what you do to me (x4)
A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us

Plain White T's - Hey There Delilah



you'll say the world has come between us
our lives have come between us
but I know you just don't care!

And I said what about "Breakfast at Tiffany's?
She said, "I think I remember the film,
And as I recall, I think, we both kinda liked it."
And I said, "Well, that's the one thing we've got."


Deep Blue Something- Breakfast at Tiffany's

I took a walk around the world to
Ease my troubled mind
I left my body laying somewhere
In the sands of time
I watched the world float to the dark
Side of the moon
I feel there is nothing I can do, yeah
