Name that tune

[Wardsweb]

where did this line come from:

the butter wouldn't melt so he put it in the pie

[grumpy]

You put the lime in the coconut and mix it all up......

[Wardsweb]

Harry Nilsson who also did that classic Me and My Arrow - where ever we go everyone knows me and my arrow.

[grumpy]

Guess I was wrong :stupid:

[Wardsweb]

what about - when in walked a man with a gun in his hand and he was looking for you know who...

[grumpy]

OK now your makin em easy for me.....LS

[grumpy]

Try this one


You're having a good time baby
But that won't last Your mind's all full of things
You're living too fast

I made it easy and gave ya two lines

[Wardsweb]

Go out enjoy yourself,
Don't bar it in You need someone to help you
stick the needle in, yeah

[grumpy]

: )

That LP shaped my whole music library for years including now.

[grumpy]

Heres something alittle newer. :) And again I will give you a couple of lines. Ya better have a good search engine or know this one.


Some say a comet will fall from the sky.
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves.
Followed by faultlines that cannot sit still.
Followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits.

[Wardsweb]

Tool my stepsons got all the albums (CDs)

[Wardsweb]

lets go back a bit - with a SERIOUS driving beat

stronger than reason
stronger than lies
the only truth i know
is the look in your eyes
the look in your eyes

[steamshooter]

Paul and Linda McCartney-Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey
Brad

[Wardsweb]

Give the man a C-Gar, we have a winner for the first post :D

[ProAc_Fan]

Put on my blue suede shoes
And I boarded the plane
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
In the middle of the pouring rain

[Wardsweb]

Walking in Memphis - Marc Cohn

[ProAc_Fan]

Nice job Wardsweb! Do you like Marc Cohn at all? Here's a more obscure tune..



Times when the day is like a play by Satre
When it seems a bookburning's in perfect order
I gave the doctor my description
I've tried to stick to my perscriptions



Mike

[Wardsweb]

Afternoons & Coffeespoons - Crash Test Dummies
From the album God Shuffled His Feet

[ProAc_Fan]

Okay thats it Wardsweb you're not getting this one!!



They're complicated people
leading complicated lives
and he complicates their problems
by telling complicated lies



Mike

[Wardsweb]

He tells her he's sorry, she tells him it's over,
he tells her he's sorry, she says over and over
You've never really known that when the white flag is flown,
no one no one no one has won the war.

[Wardsweb]

Let me interject here my life has been music.
My father was a musician, my sister has her degree in music, everyone in my family plays an instrument (except me-I only play the stereo), music is playing 8-10 hours a day in my life.

[ProAc_Fan]

Yeah but the BareNaked Ladies aren't big in Texas are they? I wouldn't have fathomed you even having heard of them. Oh well time to quit with the lyrics you're obviously too good for this game. I mean " the flag" is not exactly a top 40 tune and was never released as a single. So if you got that I don't think I could stump ya.


Mike

[THOR]

how's about:

I'm working hard, you're working too
We do it everyday
For every minute I have to work
I need a minute to play

[steamshooter]

Where's my prize? Where's my prize? Where's my prize?:stupid:












Don't I at least get a "Dewy Button"?
Brad:(

[Wardsweb]

Huey Lewis and the News

[grumpy]

Lets make it a bit more interesting If you have never heard this one you need to !



NOW YOU FLY THROUGH THE SKY
NEVER ASKING WHY, AND YOU FLY
ALL AROUND TILL SOMEBODY SHOUTS YOU DOWN

[loonytunes]

Hey grumpy I believe that'd be Bad Co. Seagull right?


If anyone knows this one well , ya gotta respect em'
the first verse goes likea this:
Blue room,I see children, flying near me, in the sun
Budding springness, Blue awareness, But to this I can succumb.

Heck I never even heard of them untill i came across the album at a garage sale.

Derek

[Wardsweb]

You never heard of Bad Company, what are you in middle school? :eek: Sorry, just this old geezer messing with ya.
But hey, Bad Company - Seagull!
Bad Company
Can't Get Enough
Feel Like Making Love
Good Lovin Gone Bad
How About That
If You Needed Somebody
Movin On
Ready For Love
Rock N Roll Fantasy
Rock Steady
This Love

[loonytunes]

hey wardsweb , You got me all wrong:D

Of course I've heard of Bad Co. I was refering to the band whose lyrics I wrote down for y' all to take a guess at.

[THOR]

Nobody answered mine yet :D

[ProAc_Fan]

Thor is that The Village People?:boink: :boink: :tongue: :withstpd: :withstpd: :butt2:




Mike

[THOR]

Nope :D It was a hit song tho I can't believe none of you headbangers know it.

[loonytunes]

I'm a headbanger and I can't figure it out!
I know I'll probably feel real stupid when we find out what it is:confused:

How's about anther clue Thor?

[Wardsweb]

Bon Jovi

using the guitar played through a mouth tube to get that funky sound ala Frampton

[THOR]

Not Bon Jovi but close in the same era, heres the next couple of lines:

day in day out all day long
things go better with rock

[ProAc_Fan]

Van Halen?

Autograph - Turn Up The Radio :eek:

Quickly, letta go my hair! :eek:

[Drybasement]

Try this one guys (and gals)

Big man, pig man, ha ha charade you are.
You well heeled big wheel, ha ha charade you are.
And when your hand is on your heart.
You're nearly a good laugh.
Almost a joker.
With your head down in the pig bin.

That should be enough clues, eh!

[THOR]

Db got it! I have no clue what those lyrics are tho, with all the pig references is it a pink floyd song??

[ckelly]

DB

That's Pink Floyd "Pigs"

You got it my man.

Thor, you had the band right. Roger Waters sure had a way with words, eh.

Try this one

Really don't mind if you sit this one out.
My words but a whisper - your deafness a SHOUT.
I may make you feel but I can't make you think.
Your sperm's in the gutter - your love's in the sink.

That should be enough.

[Wardsweb]

It's Ian, oh excuss me you call them Jethro Tull

[grumpy]

Tsk Tsk....Its you fav band. Tull Thick as a brick. :D

[Drybasement]

You guys are too good.

Wards, yes it was Ian Tull....uhhh....Jethro Anderson. Hehehe

Try this one:

"And the meek shall inherit the Earth."

Damn, I'm making this too easy. Forget that one. Try this,

Life it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else

[Drybasement]

.....a little more.......

I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free

A very metalic song don't you think.

No dinner tonight if you can't manage this now.

[Drybasement]

Alright ladies and germs, this one ends.

I'll start a new thread.
