That something useful I should be doing... HA! I don't have an iPod (I know...), but I do have a bunch of lyrics for you to guess the songs, because I'm lazy.) A couple are total gimmes, but I amuse me, so that's enough.



1.) The fool escaped from Paradise will look over his shoulder and cry / Sit and chew on daffodils and struggle to answer why

2.) There in the dark night / We'll smoke a peace pipe / Forget about who's wrong or right

3.) Come on, come on, spin a little tighter / Come on, come on, you'll feel a little lighter Accidentally In Love (of course!) by Counting Crows, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] nessa_owen

4.) Heaven's not beyond the clouds / It's just beyond the fear Beualla Woods by Garth Brooks, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] adrenya

10.) Forty thousand stars in the evening / Look at them fall from the sky Texarkana by REM, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] shaggydogstail

11.) Some day your child may cry / And if you sing this lullabye / Then in your heart there will always be a part of me Lullabye by Billy Joel, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] adrenya

12.) Oh the morning sun in all its glory / Greets the day with hope and comfort too Have I Told You Lately by Van Morrison (NOT Rod Stewart!), guessed by [livejournal.com profile] midnitemaraud_r

13.) Because I'm stranded all alone / At the gas station of love / And I have to use the self-service pump

14.) I saw a blue umbrella in Princess Street Gardens / Heading out west for the Lothian Road

15.) A young girl, two hands on the wheel / I can't replace the way it made me feel

16.) Contracts torn at the edges / Old signatures stained with tears Forgotten Years by Midnight Oil, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] musesfool

17.) In the swirling, curling storm of desire, unuttered words hold fast / With reptile tongue, the lightning lashes towers built to last Come Talk to Me by Peter Gabriel, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] topaz7

18.) After a while you'll forget everything / It was a brief interlude, a midsummer night's fling I Would Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That) by Meatloaf, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] lazy_neutrino

19.) I want it more than truth / I can taste it on my breath / I would give my life just for a little death

Yup. I used the lines the radio never plays (I really wish they'd play the full version more often) in hopes of making it a little trickier :)

All three are right, (I knew #5 would be guessed quick!). Number 3 (since someone guessed it) is Accidentally In Love, just because I think that's funny :)

#3 is Accidentally in Love by Counting Crows - it's on the Shrek soundtrack. And now playing in my head, probably for the rest of the day ;)

From: [identity profile] lls-mutant.livejournal.com
Yup :) And of course, there's obvious reasons why I picked it. Hehe.

Oh yeah! Of course! Dunno why I didn't catch that the first time.

4 Garth Brooks - Belleau Wood (favorite Garth song ever!)

5 Please tell me this isn't the theme song from Firefly...

7 Brad Paisley - Alcohol (I think I used this song on my most recent song lyric meme)

8 Storybook Love - Mark Knopfler (From the soundtrack of one of the greatest movies ever!)

11 Lulaby (good night my angel) - Billy Joel (I sang this song in my high school choir lol)
From: [identity profile] lls-mutant.livejournal.com
Apparently you are, since no one's gotten the other country ones, either! And yup- it's the themesong from Firefly. (One of Toby's lullabies.)

From: [identity profile] serenity-ca4.livejournal.com
I only recognized two them, and one's been said already (The Pogues), but the other is

6.) And love dares you to care for / The people on the edge of the night

Under Pressure, by Bowie and Queen.

Also, I have no idea what song 13. is (Because I'm stranded all alone / At the gas station of love / And I have to use the self-service pump) but it made me laugh.

Oh, and you're not the only one without an Ipod :(

Date: 2006-05-10 07:45 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] lls-mutant.livejournal.com
Yup! And I'll eventually put up the answers. I LOVE that line in #13. :)

9. Pogues! I'm ashamed I can't get more.

Date: 2006-05-10 07:45 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] lls-mutant.livejournal.com
Yup- but don't be ashamed. I have weird taste in music :)

12. Have I Told You Lately - Van Morrison. (never Rod Stewart! I hate his version!)

Date: 2006-05-10 07:46 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] lls-mutant.livejournal.com
Exactly- down to the artist! (Of COURSE it's the Van Morrison version! ;) )

Aha! Remembered one!

#17 is Peter Gabriel - come talk to me.

Hello. Normally, I'm just a lurker looking out for new chapters of Accidentally in Love, but I saw this meme, and I know a song, so I thought I'd go with it. :D

2. Wild West Show - Big & Rich (Great band/group, in my humble opinion.)

Date: 2006-05-12 07:31 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] melodytime.livejournal.com
Heh... also a lurker. But number thirteen, it's Weird Al, isn't it? I'm not sure what the song is called but I suppose it would be "One more minute with you" or something. I adore his comparisons in this song, like "I'd rather clean all the bathrooms in Grand central station with my tongue than spend one more minute with you". haha.
