Name That Song

[Bakiryu]

and my song is......

There's a lightning storm each and every night
Crashing inside you like motorbikes
We toss and turn, sleep so loud
Grind the teeth in our, our empty mouths
Our empty


There's a forest fire burning bright
Spreading quickly towards our last rights
Nowhere to run, pointless to hide
Just lay there and scream, pretending to try
Pretending

[Pendragon]

Alkaline Trio ~ Burn (Googled)

God bless cowboys
God bless gold
God bless my uncle, God rest his soul
He taught me well, boys
He taught me all I know
Taught me so that I grabbed the gold
left him lying there by the side of the road.

[BlueSkyGB]

Me and my Uncle......
listened to the Grateful Dead version this AM....


"The festival was over, the boys were all plannin' for a fall,
The cabaret was quiet except for the drillin' in the wall.
The curfew had been lifted and the gamblin' wheel shut down,
Anyone with any sense had already left town."

[papayahed]

Lily, Rosemary, and the Jack of Hearts - Bob Dylan

Why are there so many
Songs about rainbows
And what's on the other side
Rainbow's are visions
They're only illusions
And rainbows have nothing to hide
So we've been told and some chose to
Believe it
But I know they're wrong wait and see

[Idril]

The Rainbow Connection ~ Kermit

It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things
And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're
Not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water
Or stars in the sky

[BlueSkyGB]

Its not easy being Green.....Kermit



"Singing to an ocean, I can hear the ocean's roar
Play for free, play for me and play a whole lot more, more!
Singing about good things and the sun that lights the day
I used to sing on the mountains, has the ocean lost it's way"

[Shalot]

The Ocean - Led Zeppelin (funny - I listened to Houses of the Holy twice today at work)

Here's another good song by one of those seventies bands that defined rock (I think I heard that somewhere - maybe on VH1 )

We sail through endless skies
Stars shine like eyes
The black night sighs
The moon in silver trees
Falls down in tears
Light of the night
The earth, a purple blaze
Of sapphire haze
In orbit always

[BlueSkyGB]

Pantera ......Planet Caravan
you left a clue in another thread....LOL

"Everything that happened, you know I am to blame.
Everything that's happened, you know I am to blame.
I'm gonna find me a doctor, maybe my luck will change."

Done Somebody Wrong - Elmore James


She was black as the night
Louie was whiter than white
Danger, danger when you taste brown sugar

[Pendragon]

Brother Louie ~ Bon Jovi (love Bon Jovi)

An angel's smile is what you sell
You promise me heaven then put me through hell
Chains of love, got a hold on me
When passion's a prison you can't break free

[Granny5]

You Give Love A Bad Name - Bon Jovi
(you gave me the answer instead of Hot Chocolate for Brother Louie)

Standing on the mountain
looking down at the city
the way I feel in a dog gone pity

[Bakiryu]

Mountain of love~ Johny Rivers (googled!)

A friend in needs a friend indeed,
A friend with weed is better,
A friend with breasts and all the rest,
A friend who's dressed in leather,

A friend in needs a friend indeed,
A friend who'll tease is better ,
Our thoughts compressed,
Which makes us blessed,
And makes for stormy weather,

A friend in needs a friend indeed,
My Japanese is better,
And when she's pressed she will undress,
And then she's boxing clever,

A friend in needs a friend indeed,
A friend who bleeds is better,
My friend confessed she passed the test,
And we will never sever,

[Shalot]

Pantera ......Planet Caravan
you left a clue in another thread....LOL

But no - the original was Black Sabbath. didn't they always say that Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin set the templates for what we have today as far as rock music goes? Black Sabbath was dark and aggressive (think Metallica Megadeath and I guess Pantera)

Friend With Weed - Butthole Surfers

Next:

Well I married me a wife
She gave me trouble all my life
She ran me out in the cold rain and snow

[Granny5]
