Lyrically Speaking - 1/11/08

#1 Post by littlebeast13 » Fri Jan 11, 2008 6:51 am

It's time for another wonderful edition of Free For All Friday, so here's 20 songs I heard while flipping through the wide variety of Music Choice channels on cable on the morning of January 4th. This game will close Monday morning....

1 point for the artist, 1 point for the title...



1. Excuse me for the moment I'm in another world
On a mountain by a fountain
Flowers blooming everywhere
With Venus and Cupid the picture's very clear

2. Whatever happened
To Tuesday and so slow
Going down the old mine
With a transistor radio

3. They let you dream just to watch 'em shatter
You're just a step on the boss-man's ladder
But you got dreams he'll never take away

4. Everybody wants to touch somebody
If it takes all night
Everybody wants to take a little chance
And make it come out right

5. My mama told me there'd be days like this
And man she wasn't foolin'
'Cause I just can't believe the way you kiss

6. Check the mirror, we're lookin' fly
Round up the posse, jump in my ride
Radio rockin', a monster jam
Feel the rhythm, pump up the sound

7. It's hard to think about
what you've wanted
It's hard to think about what you've lost
This doesn't have to be the big get even
This doesn't have to be anything at all

8. Looking for a girl that’ll treat you right
You lookin’ for her in the day time with the light
You might be the type if I play my cards right
I'll find out by the end of the night

9. Why be afraid if I'm not alone
Though life is never easy the rest is unknown
Up to now for more me it's been hands against stone
Spent each and every moment
Searching for what to believe

10. Tonight's the night when I go to all the parties down my street
I wash my hair and I kid myself, I look real smooth

11. Annie, are you ok?
So, Annie are you ok?
Are you ok, Annie?

12. Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say

13. Why don't you use it ?
Try not to bruise it ?
Buy time don't lose it

14. Baby tonight belongs to us
Everything's right, do what you must
And inch by inch we get closer and closer ohhhh
Every little part is in touch

15. I feel like I've been locked up tight
For a century of lonely nights
Waiting for someone to release me

16. I can feel it when you walk
even when you talk it takes over me
you're so dandy
I wanna know
can you feel it too just like I do
(hoo!)

17. And even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishin' on the same bright star

18. I was struck by lighting
Walkin' down the street
I was hit by something last night in my sleep

19. Whoa-oh, I knew we was falling in love
Yes I did, and so I told her all the things I'd been dreamin' of

20. I'm not trying to make you feel uncomfortable
I'm not trying to make you anything at all
But this feeling doesn't come along everyday

1. Excuse me for the moment I'm in another world
On a mountain by a fountain
Flowers blooming everywhere

Nope

2. Whatever happened
To Tuesday and so slow
Going down the old mine
With a transistor radio

Brown-Eyed Girl, Van Morrison

3. They let you dream just to watch 'em shatter
You're just a step on the boss-man's ladder
But you got dreams he'll never take away

9 to 5, Dolly Parton

4. Everybody wants to touch somebody
If it takes all night
Everybody wants to take a little chance
And make it come out right

All Night Long, Eagles

5. My mama told me there'd be days like this
And man she wasn't foolin'
'Cause I just can't believe the way you kiss

It's Aerosmith, but I can't pull it!

6. Check the mirror, we're lookin' fly
Round up the posse, jump in my ride
Radio rockin', a monster jam
Feel the rhythm, pump up the sound

Not familiar at all

7. It's hard to think about
what you've wanted
It's hard to think about what you've lost
This doesn't have to be the big get even
This doesn't have to be anything at all

Stop Driving My Car Around--I mean, Stop Dragging My Heart Around, Tom Petty and Stevie Nicks (saw them do this in concert last year. Also I Need To Know. Both very good. Tom Petty gets better looking with age, so if he makes it to 548 years old he may someday be considered good-looking....)

8. Looking for a girl that’ll treat you right
You lookin’ for her in the day time with the light
You might be the type if I play my cards right
I'll find out by the end of the night

Very familiar and it's nagging me!

9. Why be afraid if I'm not alone
Though life is never easy the rest is unknown
Up to now for more me it's been hands against stone
Spent each and every moment
Searching for what to believe

Also familiar

10. Tonight's the night when I go to all the parties down my street
I wash my hair and I kid myself, I look real smooth

Is She Really Going Out With Him?, Joe Jackson

11. Annie, are you ok?
So, Annie are you ok?
Are you ok, Annie?

Smooth Criminal, either Michael Jackson or Alien Ant Farm

12. Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say

Nope

13. Why don't you use it ?
Try not to bruise it ?
Buy time don't lose it

The Reflexxxxx, Duran Duran

14. Baby tonight belongs to us
Everything's right, do what you must
And inch by inch we get closer and closer ohhhh
Every little part is in touch

Way familiar...

15. I feel like I've been locked up tight
For a century of lonely nights
Waiting for someone to release me

It must be Genie in a Bottle, so Christina Aguilera if it is.

16. I can feel it when you walk
even when you talk it takes over me
you're so dandy
I wanna know
can you feel it too just like I do
(hoo!)

Nope

17. And even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishin' on the same bright star

Somewhere out there, and I can never remember which duet is which, so I'll say Linda Ronstadt and Peabo Bryson. Not one of the Neville Brothers...

18. I was struck by lighting
Walkin' down the street
I was hit by something last night in my sleep

Dead Man's Party, Oingo Boingo (Danny Elfman had a life before he met Tim Burton...)

19. Whoa-oh, I knew we was falling in love
Yes I did, and so I told her all the things I'd been dreamin' of

Doo Wah Diddy, everybody on Earth, but I'll put Tommy James and the Shondells.

20. I'm not trying to make you feel uncomfortable
I'm not trying to make you anything at all
But this feeling doesn't come along everyday

I Honestly Want to Gag. Or I Honestly Love You, Olivia Newton-John

Try not to bruise it ?
Buy time don't lose it

14. Baby tonight belongs to us
Everything's right, do what you must
And inch by inch we get closer and closer ohhhh
Every little part is in touch

15. I feel like I've been locked up tight
For a century of lonely nights
Waiting for someone to release me
GENIE IN A BOTTLE? -- CHRISTINA AGUILERA?

16. I can feel it when you walk
even when you talk it takes over me
you're so dandy
I wanna know
can you feel it too just like I do
(hoo!)

17. And even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishin' on the same bright star
LUCKY STAR -- MADONNA??

18. I was struck by lighting
Walkin' down the street
I was hit by something last night in my sleep

19. Whoa-oh, I knew we was falling in love
Yes I did, and so I told her all the things I'd been dreamin' of
DOO WAH DIDDY -- MANFRED MANN

20. I'm not trying to make you feel uncomfortable
I'm not trying to make you anything at all
But this feeling doesn't come along everyday

Are you ok, Annie?
Smooth Criminal - Michael Jackson or Alien Ant Farm (I recall when the AAF version came out in 2001, and it actually was discussed on this Bored around the dawn of the Love Boat era around the same time LS was getting started. And it took two people to hint at it before I realized these lyrics had a significant meaning given recent events surrounding one of our favorite four-footers...)

All 20 songs were correctly identified by at least one person, so no shutouts this week, and we still only have one on the season. Looking ahead to this week, however, I doubt that trend will continue....
