Name that tune

[John84]

Pretty self explanatory; someone posts a lyric from a song and then whoever names the song and artist posts the next lyric. I'll start it off.

"Johnny's life passed him by/ like a warm summer day/ If you listen to the wind/ You can still hear him play"

 

[Greg]

Bad Company - Shooting Star. I should only get half credit though as I thought it was "Superstar" until I googled it. Next:

See, a gun is real easy
In this desperate part of town
Turns you from hunted into hunter
Go and hunt somebody down

 

[ALLSKIING]

VH- Mean street.

On a dark desert highway
Cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
Rising up through the air

Oooof. thought I'd stump ya since it's really a spoken lyric.

Too easy Dave - Eagles, Hotel California. Next:

I get up around seven
Get outta bed around nine
And I don't worry about nothin' no
Cause worryin's a waste of my... time

And I don't worry about nothin' no
Cause worryin's a waste of my... time

I got this....Guns 'n roses.....:-D

This is hard:
So shut that buckle and turn that key again
Take me to a place they say the dreaming never ends
Open wide drive that mystery road
Walk through eden's garden and then wonder as you go

 

[Greg]

No idea. Reads like a Zeppelin lyric though...

Guns N Roses - Mr. Brownstone

Mine:

It ain't no joke when a momma's hankerchief is soaked,
With her tears, because her baby's life has been revoked.
The bond is broke up so choke up and focus on the close up,
Mr. Wizard can't perform no God-like hocus pocus.

Woah- a bit obscure there.

I'm gonna go with Dreamworld.... Midnight OIl?

Try this one:

When I'm a walkin' I strut my stuff,
And I'm so strung out.
I'm high as a kite, I just might
Stop to check you out.

Let me go on....

Easy - "Blister in the Sun" by The Violent Femmes.


Here's an oldie, but a goodie:

Well, they're still racing out at the trestles
But that blood it never burned in her veins
Now I hear she's got a house up in Fairview
And a style she's trying to maintain
Well if she wants to see me
You can tell her that I'm easily found

Darkness on the Edge of Town
Bruce Springsteen

Next

"Sound check's at 5:02. Record stores and interviews.
Oh, but I can't wait to be with you tomorrow."

Now Marc, I'm saddened that you didn't pick "Add it up" by the Femmes. Now THOSE ARE SOME LYRICS! My theme song as a teenager too.

Danny Says, by the Ramones.

OK:


"Filet of Sole, Baby .... it's my favorite dish
Filet of Sole, Baby .... that dish is fish
Well ... oh, I lose control
When served Filet of Sole"

 

[John84]

The Dead Milkmen
Filet of Sole



Try this...

"With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
But there's nothing in it "

Pixes- Where is my mind?

It's kind of cheating because it's the ring tone on my phone when my daughter calls but since no one else answered....

 

[John84]

Yup, you got it.
