Name That Song

[Basil]

YMCA - The Village People

I love America
Her secret's safe with me
And I know her wicked ways
The parts you never see

[papayahed]

Miss America by David Byrne

I try to discover
A little something to make me sweeter
Oh baby refrain from breaking my heart
Im so in love with you
Ill be forever blue
That you give me no reason
Why youre making me work so hard

[Basil]

A Little Respect - Erasure

I go: No mom, I'm not on drugs I'm okay, I was just thinking you know. Why don't you get me a Pepsi?
She goes: No, you're on drugs!
I go: Mom I'm okay, I'm just thinking.
She goes: No, you're not thinking, you're on drugs! Normal people don't be acting that way!
I go: Mom just get me a Pepsi, please. All I want is a Pepsi.
And she wouldn't give it to me!
All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi
And she wouldn't give it to me.
Just a Pepsi.

Suicidal Tendencies ~ Institutionalized...I had to google.

Nothing's prettier than a pretty girl digging a heart shaped hole in the ground. Hear that sound? That's the fortress 'round your heart crumbling down.

Suicidal Tendencies ~ Institutionalized...I had to google.

Isn't googling against the spirit of the thing? I mean, if googling's okay, no song will be up there longer than it takes the first person who reads it to cut'n'paste it.

Surely the idea of the game is to test what people know, not what they can find out - simply because anyone could find out.

So, you don't know the song Idril picked, eh, Mark?

[Shalot]

Jim White - Wrong Kind of Love (googled it and I'm not ashamed)

"My gift of self is raped
My privacy is raked"

[MarkBastable]

Nutshell - Alice in Chains


Easy, once you understand the rules.

Ich steche dich,
Dass du ewig denkst an mich,
Und ich will’s nicht leiden.

[papayahed]

Heidenröslein - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832)

(Nobody is making you google)

She packed up her bags and she took off down the road
Left me here stranded with the bills she owed
She gave me a false address
Took off with my american express

[MarkBastable]

Sunspot Baby - Bob Seger(not googled, though I would have done had I not known it)


It's a hallmark of adulthood
That our options diminish
As our faculties for choice increase...

[Basil]

(No More) The Sub Mariner - Peter Hammill

Spitting in a wishing well
Blown to hell... crash!
I'm the last splash.
I'll be your whatever you want
The bong in this reggae song

[Idril]

Oh, I love that song, Basil! Cannonball by the Breeders

The blue pill opens your eyes
Is there a better way
A new religion prescribed
To those without the faith
The hero holding a knife
And blood is not enough

[balehead]

Better living through Chemistry - Queens of the stone Age

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand

[Scheherazade]

Viva La Vida - Coldplay

And I don't understand why I sleep all day
And I start to complain that there's no rain
And all I can do is read a book to stay awake
And it rips my life away, but it's a great escape

[balehead]

No Rain - Blind Melon

I gotta be either dead or dreamin'
'Cause look at that pape with my face beamin'
Tomorrow they may wrap fishes in it
But I was a star for one whole minute
