Music Trivia thread!
 

I think most people love music trivia, so let's have some fun here.

Post a line from a song [nothing to obscure though ;) ] and the person who gets the right answer posts a new line. I'll start.


"Superior they said never gives up her dead when the gales of November come early..."

the wreck of the edmund fitzgerald

here's one for ya
"heaven bent to hold my hand and lead me through the fire...but somewhere along the way i got caught up in all there was to offer, and the cost was so much more than i could pay."

You guys are making this too tough.... lets try something a little more novice to start...


Sitting on a cornflake, waiting for the van to come.
Corporation tee-shirt, stupid bloody tuesday.
Man, you been a naughty boy, you let your face grow long.
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.

Jason, isn't that Sarah McLachlan "Fallen"

Good Chris... Beatles, I am the Walrus.

Here's the next one:

I laid a divorcée in New York City
I had to put up some kind of a fight
The lady then she covered me with roses
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind

yes to Fallen

yours is the Stones "Honkey Tonk Women"

try this on for size:
"We're here and now...but we will never be again...cause I have found that all that shimmers in this world is sure to fade away again."

SHIMMER BY FUEL



Next...

Out on the tar plains, the glides are moving
All looking for a new place to drive
You sit beside me so newly charming
Sweating dewdrops glisten freshing your side

have to admit...i couldn't get that one...had to look it up so i won't post the answer here as that's cheating. somebody may know it though.

Oh go ahead Jason... :cool:

oh alright....

Chauffer...by Duran Duran

how about this one:
"I got the ways and means to New Orleans. I'm goin down by the river where it's warm and green. I'm gonna have a drink and walk around. I got a lot to think about Oh Yeah!"

I'm stumped!! I'm guessing it's a classic rock tune though?

That was a very tough one... I looked it up...

There’s a crack in the mirror
And a bloodstain on the bed -
There’s a crack in the mirror
And a bloodstain on the bed -
O you were a vampire and baby
I’m walking dead
O you were a vampire and baby
I’m walking dead

Bloodletting by Concrete Blonde!
Good one...

How about this one?

Something's wrong cause my mind is fading
And everywhere I look there's a dead end waiting
Temperature's dropping at the rotten oasis
Stealing kisses from the leperous faces

I know its beck but thats all I got. I recognize the song but just froma friend of mine listening to him.




There comes a time in everyones life
When we gotta stand up and fight
It doesnt mean that its wrong or right
Just let it go cause its on tonight

I used to have that disk before it got stolen

BECK - Devils Haircut

Heres one you should have no problem with Evil..

He's the wolf screaming lonely in the night
He's the blood stain on the stage
He's the tear in your eye
Been tempted by his lie
He's the knife in your back
He's rage
He's the razor to the knife
Oh lonely is our lives
My heads spinnin' round and round
But in seasons of wither
We'll stand and deliver
Be strong and laugh and......

what, could noone figure mine out??

I've got something to say:
"it's better to burn out than to fade away."

:laughout:

Oh I know this.... arg.. It will come to me...

Def Leppard

round and round and round we go
Where we stop nobody knows
We'll stand together and we'll let em know
Fuck wiht he bull get the horns thats the way it goes

I suck at these so no guesses from me

but

You don't tug on Superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger
And you don't mess around with Adultlegal-Jim

Lyrocs edited :D

Way to go Don... look at what you went and did... you've stump fucked all of us!!! :invalid:

Buffet

Margaritaville

It was a trick question. def leppard used it, Queen used it, and I'm pretty sure I heard it somewhere else in a muddled lyric. When you see the same lyric in several places, it makes you wonder where it really came from.


:xhappy:

Jim Croce and I am sitting here singing the song but cant think of the name of it..


WAIT...Leroy Brown??

those were both from the same song.
Saliva
Raise Up

Don't mess around with Jim

Ok how about....

"I'm taking a ride with my bestfriend, I hope he never let's me down again"

=)

I know its Depeche Mode

don't know the name of the song though

I want to hear the breaking glass
I only feel the steel of the red hot truth
And I'd do anything to get it out of my mind
I need some insanity, that temporary kind
