OT: Guess the lyrics

[moses millsap]

For those of us who have no chance on Ganchrow's puzzles, lol. What's the title and who's the artist? I'll start with these 5.

"Im gonna learn ya my philosophy"
"Let me forget about today until tomorrow"
"while the devil wants to **** me in the back of his car"
"I'm so ugly, but that's okay, cause so are you"
"I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday"

[Mudcat]

I take it you're looking for 5 different answers.

I recognized the 4th one instantly. I assume it is written by the guy in your avatar. I have the CD. Unfortunately I'm not nearly as aware of song titles as I once was. I just play the CD's.

So the artist is Nirvana but I don't know the title. The line, I'm not gonna crack, is repeated many times so I'll guess that.



That's all I got at the moment.

No its lithium

[moses millsap]

#4 is correct guys ("Lithium" by Nirvana)

[tacomax]

#1 "Sex Type Thing" - Stone Temple Pilots
#2 "Mr Tambourine Man" - Byrds/Dylan/Whoever
#5 "Me and Bobby Mcgee" - Kris Kristofferson

Don't know #3 but I'd guess at Marilyn Manson or NiN or someone "like that".

Solid stuff Taco. You're on the right track with #3 as well, it's one of those two.

OK, me next ... this is a brilliant idea.

I was tired of my lady, we'd been together too long.
Like a worn-out recording, of a favorite song.
So while she lay there sleeping, I read the paper in bed.
And in the personals column, there was this letter I read:

Is this a British artist?

[tacomax]

I reckon it's going to be either Queen, Elton John or Erasure.

Nobody I know knows those lyrics, which one was it Natrass?

It's going to be something camper than a field full of tents.

Here a few more:

"She knows there's no success like failure
And that failure's no success at all."

"The troubled words of a troubled mind
I try to understand what is eating you"

"with the rerun shows and the cocaine nose-job
the daytime crap of the folksinger slob"

"I fall on my knees every Sunday
At Zerelda Lee's candy store"

"Lucifer simba go to sea.
Be a hip cat, be a ship's cat."

O/U is 8 minutes for Taco.

Stop picking Dylan lyrics and it might take me a bit longer.

#1 "Love Minus Zero/No Limit" - Bob Dylan

#2 "Black Star" - Radiohead

#3 "Loser" - Beck

Dunno #4 but #5 is Pink Floyd - I know the lyric but not the song. It's early Floyd, I think.

Sorry Owned I forgot i posted here

Heres the full lyric ..

I was tired of my lady, we'd been together too long.
Like a worn-out recording, of a favorite song.
So while she lay there sleeping, I read the paper in bed.
And in the personals column, there was this letter I read:

"If you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain.
If you're not into yoga, if you have half-a-brain.
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape.
I'm the lady you've looked for, write to me, and escape."

I didn't think about my lady, I know that sounds kind of mean.
But me and my old lady, had fallen into the same old dull routine.
So I wrote to the paper, took out a personal ad.
And though I'm nobody's poet, I thought it wasn't half-bad.

"Yes, I like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain.
I'm not much into health food, I am into champagne.
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon, and cut through all this red tape.
At a bar called O'Malley's, where we'll plan our escape."

So I waited with high hopes, then she walked in the place.
I knew her smile in an instant, I knew the curve of her face.
It was my own lovely lady, and she said, "Oh, it's you."
And we laughed for a moment, and I said, "I never knew"..

"That you liked Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain.
And the feel of the ocean, and the taste of champagne.
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape.
You're the love that I've looked for, come with me, and escape."

"If you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain.
If you're not into yoga, if you have half-a-brain.
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape.
You're the love that I've looked for, come with me, and escape."

From the man with a homosexual/transexual young boy as his "image of choice".

And I think the full lyrics prove you (again) to be mistaken.

[isetcap]

"Brings out the duty in my soul"

[tacomax]

"Heavy Duty" Spinal Tap.

Try and make it easier by not using the best rock album ever released.
