 | I have a friend on SYD whose (no)name will remain anonymous. It seems no matter what the topic is, somehow his mind -drifter-s and his comment will include song lyrics. If I were playing Rock-n-Roll Jeopardy at a party, I would want him on my team.
Here's my thought; do you have a favorite tune, it might be because of a guitar riff or maybe it's the lyrics. Do you think you know some of the words, great! Please post some of the words then let us guess if we know the title. |
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away.
C.hild is slowly taken.
And the V.iolence caused such silence,
Who are we mistaken?
But you see, it's not me, it's not my family.
In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...
Another mother's breakin',
Heart is taking over.
When the vi'lence causes silence,
We must be mistaken.
It's the same old theme since nineteen-.16.
In your head, in your head they're still fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are dying...
Machine gun, tearin' my body all apart. Machine gun,yeah, tearin' my body all apart. Evil man make me kill you. Evil man make you kill me. Evil man make me kill you, even though were only famlies apart. Well,I pick up my axe and fight like a farmer, You know what I mean? hey,and your bullets keep knockin' me down. Hey,I pick up my axe an' fight like a farmer,now, yeah,but you still blast me down to the ground. The same way you shoot me, you'll be goin' just the same,three times the pain. And with your own self to blame,machine gun!
I ain't afraid of your bullets no more,baby. I ain't afraid no more. After awhile,your,your cheap talk won't even cause me pain, so let your bullets fly like rain. 'Cause I know all the time your wrong,baby, and you'll be goin' just the same. Machine gun,tearin' my family apart. Hey yeah,alright,tearin' my family apart.
I miss those days yeah
Remember the songs
Used to make you rock away
Those were the days
When love used to reign, hey
We danced all night to the songs they played
Weekend come again, do it just the same
Now I feel it to my heart
Being such a golden time had to part yes
Now there's hardly any safe place left to go
Someone's bound to come
And try to spoil the show, oh oh
Remember the songs
Used to make you rock away
Those were the days
When love used to reighn
We danced all night to the songs they played
Weekend come again
We do it just the same, hey
Hail John Holt, Alton Ellis, Delroy Wilson, Dennis Brown, hey hey
Big Youth, Josey Wales
Daddy Roy would wake the town, yeah
And you had to hold your woman real close When Smokey starts to sing
Temptations, Marvin Gaye
Spinners all the way
Aretha Franklin
Patti Labelle used to make me drift away
Play Stevie play, Sam Cooke anyday, yeah
We dance all night to the songs they played
Weekend come again do it just the same
Right now we need a brand new start
People everywhere need more music
From the heart
And if there remains such a place
That I can go
Will someone tell me tell me I want to know
Remember the songs
Used to make you rock away
Those were the days
When love used to reign
We danced all night to the songs they played
Weekend come again
We do it just the same, hey
Remember the songs
Used to make you rock away
Those were the days
When love used to reign
Danced all night to the songs they played
Weekend come again
We do it just the same
Remember the nights
It's getting me down my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
This time I'm comin' down
And I hope you're thinking of me
As you lay down on your side
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
But I know I'm on a losing streak
'Cause I passed down my old street
And if you wanna show, then just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
'Cause baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I'm coming, too
Just like you said, you leave my life, I'm better off dead
--------------------------------------- added after 97 seconds
And you're thinking of escape
I'll go anywhere with you
Just wrap me up in chains
But if you try to go alone
Don't think I'll understand
Stay with me
Stay with me
In the silence of your room
In the darkness of your dreams
You must only think of me
There can be no in between
When your pride is on the floor
I'll make you beg for more
Stay with me
Stay with me
You'd better hope and pray
That you make it safe
Back to your own world
You'd better hope and pray
That you'll wake one day
In your own world
'Cause when you s.leep at night
They don't hear your cries
In your own world
Only time will tell
If you can break the spell
Back in your own world
Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay, stay with me
Stay, stay, stay, stay, stay
Stay with me
This is for someone here they know who it is

S.I.s.t.e.r
How many lives are living strange
Where were you when we were getting high?
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannon ball
Where were you while we were getting high?
Wake up the dawn and ask her why
A dreamer dreams she never dies
Wipe that tear away now from your eye
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannon ball
Where were you when we were getting high?
Cos people believe that they're
Gonna get away for the summer
But you and I, we live and die
The world's still spinning round
We don't know why
Why, why, why, why
How many special people change
How many lives are living strange
Where were you when we were getting high?
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannon ball
Where were you while we were getting high?

Champagne Supanova!
I feel so unsure.
As I take your hand,
to the dance floor.
As the music dies,
something in your eyes.
Calls to mind the silver screen,
and all its sad goodbyes.
I'm never gonna dance again.
Cause guilty feet have got not rhythm.
Although its easy to pretend,
I know you're not a fool.
Should have known better than to cheat a friend,
and waste the chance that IMd been given.
So i'm never gonna dance again.
Cause guily feet have got no rhythm.
Although its easy to pretend,
I know you're not a fool.
Time can never mend, the careless whispers of a good friend.
To the heart and mind, ignorance is kind.
There's no comfort in the truth, pain is all you'll find.
Im never gonna dance agian, cause guilty feet have got no rhythm.
Though its easy to pretend I know you're not a fool.
Tonight the music seems so loud.
I wish we could just lose this crowd.
Maybe its better this way.
We hurt each other with the things we want to say.
We could have been so good together.
We could have danced this dance forever.
Now who's gonna dance with me?
Please stay.
Wont be long till I see
Bridges on our river
Looking at the old familiar lights
Wont be long till well be
Making up for countless sleepless nights
One night
I met a fine chick
She was built just right
She stopped when I flashed my roll
I told her she could have all my dough
She turned around and with a frown
She said this ain't no circus
And I don't need no clown
Your cash ain't nothin' but trash
Your cash ain't nothin' but trash
Oh, I don't know why you're not there. I give you my love, but you don't care. So what is right, and what is wrong? Gimme a sign...
This spirit, this body that's still talking,
It's too late to take precautions my whole worlds already fallen apart, broke as easy as porcelain
And all because I didn't wear a hat when I fucked a yat, now I wish I never even took her back to my flat,
I've been cursed from my dick to the hearse, I can't think of nothing worse and it hurts,
'Cos all this pain I've inflicted on myself, always thought casual sex would do me good never bad for my health,
What a foolish thing to think, if I had an ounce of heart left it would probably sink, now I'm on the brink of death,
Seemingly there was nothing left for me too look forward to in this life I leave, I'm at my wits end and I can no longer Pretend to be a happy person when'.. I'm dead and buried
I'm dead and buried oh yeah,
There ain't no hope left for me in this world no,
I'm dead already,
Can never live in heaven when I live in hell,
I'm living in hell'
Hi my name is Alex and I'm a **** addict name any **** substance on this planet, I've had it,
Leave anything valuable lying around and I'll grab it, I'll do absolutely anything to support my habit,
'Cos without my buzz I'm a nervous wreck, an insecure smackhead running out of veins to inject,
Reality checks get me so upset, gonna make me realise my life's a fucking mess and I ain't got no where to go 'cos my Family hates me, paranoia sets in and the whole worlds against me, so I buy another 20 bag of scag,
Take it all in one go like an arsehole being fucked by a fag, and all my worries get washed away in an instant,
Yo as soon as the rush hits my brain there's a distance, between fact and fiction the truth hurts so much though I've Become a slave to this addiction, I owe dangerous people money I can't afford to pay, every penny gets spent on this Buzz my body craves, it's man made, A grade, powder with a dark shade I'm too far gone now to ever be saved'I'm Dead and buried
Alright listen up, can't tell you my name for legal purposes 'cos I'm a convicted felon, looking at 15 years inside and I'm Only 27, court told me they'd knock it down to at least 11, on good behaviour get bail after reduced sentence, But things ain't looking good for me back at the scrubs, already caught up in world of **** and drugs, walked into This shit with my eyes closed looking a mug, came in as a man now its turning me out as a thug, I've shank twin mates Already, one of them's dead the other's close to recovering and is after my head, there's nothing I can do now 'cos I've Made my bed, just gonna have to lie in it and watch where I tread, yo I made a mistake and I know that now, the only Reason I'm in here is 'cos I thought somehow that what I was doing was right, when I loaded up that shotgun and Attempted to end that mans life, yo what the fuck would you do if you was in my position? Found out your sisters been Beaten into submission, by her own boyfriend on the floor of her own kitchen and violently raped by him as he tells her To stop bitching, yeah you'd do the exact same thing as me, play God with a sawn off and cap him in his knee, you'd Chop his balls of if you had the opportunity, cut his dick in half and leave him with only an inch to pee, only to find out That it was all in vain 'cos your dumb bitch of a sisters got back together with him again, they're engaged to get Married, you're going insane, contemplating a life in prison where you're gonna remain, You're dead and buried'
And the pain has starting to slip away, hey, hey
I'm in a backless dress on a pastel ward that's shining
Think I want you still but it may be pills at work
Do you really wanna know how I was dancing on the floor?
I was trying to phone you when I'm crawling out the door
I'm amazed at you, the things you say that you don't do
Why don't you ring?
I was feeling lonely, feeling blue
Feeling like I needed you
Like I'm walking up surrounded by me
A&E
Darling you gotta let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
If you say that you are mine
I'll be here til the end of time.
So you got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
Steffi I will see you again on Gods golden shore take care Jeff (poolboy)
Just a bit of a break from the norm
Just a little somethin' to break the monotony
Of all that hardcore dance that has gotten to be
A little bit out of control it's cool to dance
But what about the groove that soothes that moves romance
Give me a soft subtle mix
And if ain't broke then don't try to fix it
And think of the summers of the past
Adjust the base and let the alpine blast
Pop in my CD and let me run a rhyme
And put your car on cruise and lay back cause this is summertime
School is out and it's a sort of a buzz
A back then I didn't really know what it was
But now I see what have of this
The way that people respond to summer madness
The weather is hot and girls are dressing less
And checking out the fellas to tell 'em who's best
Riding around in your jeep or your benzos
Or in your Nissan stting on lorenzos
Back in Philly we be ou in the park
A place called the plateau is where everybody goes
Guys out hunting and girls doing likewise
Honking at the honey in front of you with the light eyes
She turn around to see what you beeping at
It's like the summers a natural afradesiac
And with a pen and pad I compose this rhyme
To hit you and get you equipped for the summer time
It's late in the day and I ain't been on the court yet
Hustle to the mall to get me a short set
Yeah I got on sneaks but I need a new pair
Cause basketball courts in the summer got girls there
The temperature's about 88
Hop in the water plug just for old times sake
Break to ya crib change your clothes once more
Cause you're invited to a barbeque that's starting at 4
Sitting with your friends cause y'all remincise
About the days growing up and the first person you kiss
And as I think back makes me wonder how
The smell from a grill could spark up nostalgia
All the kids playing out front
Little boys messin round with the girls playing double-dutch
While the DJ's spinning a tune as the old folks dance at your family reunion
Then six o'clock rolls around
You just finished wiping your car down
It's time to cruise so you head to the summertime hangout
It looks like a car show
Everybody come lookin real fine
Fresh from the barber shop or fly from the beauty salon
Every moment frontin and maxin
Chillin in the car they spent all day waxin
Leanin to the side but you can't spead through
Two miles an hour so everybody sees you
There's an air of love and of happiness
And this is the Fresh Prince's new defintion of summer madness

It has finally arrived!! (here anyway!)
You're so vain, I bet you think this song is about you.
Don't you, don't you.
check out on youtube:
andy mckee drifting
warning! it might bring tears to your eyes..!
I used to play guitar, don't do anymore because I had some operations on my hands, but my Gibson Les Paul is save in the attic now, I will never sell it, it's 2/3 of a lifetime.
The tears in my eyes are not from the song, it's from seeing someone taking guitarplaying to another level, I wouldn't have considered possible.
But hey! Glad you liked it! Andy McKee rocks!!
Steve Lukather (my guitar-GOD!!) couldn't have played it like this...
i was more the gibson-type, but with customized pick-ups, put in a single-coil in the middle and could switch from series (=humbugging) to parallel (=2x single coil).
that, and with my tc-electronic parametric EQ i could switch from the deepest gibson sound to the clearest fender sound..!
acute arthritis got to me in two weeks time two years ago. the tendons in my hands snapped and there is no way i can ever play piano or guitar. tough shit. but my ears still work! and i have 2 years of listening music on harddisc!
