Lyrically Speaking - 2/4/25

#1 Post by littlebeast13 » Tue Feb 04, 2025 7:29 am

Tuesday's bands by numbers game makes its way up to three this week, so all of the songs below were done by trios. Yeah, a lot of them are from the 80's because music videos were how I found out how many members bands had... though it didn't work for Wham!!!!!!!!!! or Tears For Fears (not that I'm still bitter about that old phone game question I missed)....

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


1. Oh, can't you see
You belong to me?
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take?

2. You got to whip it up
And hit me like a ton of lead
If I blow my top
Will you let it go to your head?

3. Well she don't like losing, to her it's still a game
And though she will mess up your life
You'll want her just the same

4. Trying to smile but
The air is so heavy and dry

5. But look at our life now, we're tattered and torn
We fuss and we fight and delight in the tears
That we cry until dawn

6. I ain't goin' to school it starts too early for me
Well listen man I ain't goin' to school no more it starts much, much too early for me
I don't care about readin', writin', 'rithmetic or history

7. Tell me what you've got in mind
'Cause we're running out of time
Won't you ever set me free?
This waiting 'round's killing me

8. He went to fight wars
For his country and his king
Of his honor and his glory
The people would sing

9. And that sweet city woman
She moves through the light
Controlling my mind and my soul

10. Living in a fisheye lens
Caught in the camera eye
I have no heart to lie
I can't pretend a stranger is a long-awaited friend

11. Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me

12. Yo, yo, yo, yo, baby-pop
Yeah, you! Come here, gimme a kiss
Better make it fast or else I'm gonna get pissed

Tuesday's bands by numbers game makes its way up to three this week, so all of the songs below were done by trios. Yeah, a lot of them are from the 80's because music videos were how I found out how many members bands had... though it didn't work for Wham!!!!!!!!!! or Tears For Fears (not that I'm still bitter about that old phone game question I missed)....

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


1. Oh, can't you see
You belong to me?
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take?

Every Breath You Take - The Police

2. You got to whip it up
And hit me like a ton of lead
If I blow my top
Will you let it go to your head?

Give Me All Your Lovin - ZZ Top

3. Well she don't like losing, to her it's still a game
And though she will mess up your life
You'll want her just the same

Rush

4. Trying to smile but
The air is so heavy and dry

Cruel Summer - Bananarama

I might've missed this one had I not been specifically looking for Venus...

5. But look at our life now, we're tattered and torn
We fuss and we fight and delight in the tears
That we cry until dawn

Rush

Yeah, it doesn't sound like Rush but I know they have to be here somewhere and I don't see Tom Sawyer...+

6. I ain't goin' to school it starts too early for me
Well listen man I ain't goin' to school no more it starts much, much too early for me
I don't care about readin', writin', 'rithmetic or history

Sexy + 17 - Stray Cats

This one always makes me think of tbone, as we might have been the only ones to (correctly!) use the plus instead of the ampersand or just and...

7. Tell me what you've got in mind
'Cause we're running out of time
Won't you ever set me free?
This waiting 'round's killing me

She Drives Me Crazy - Fine Young Cannibals

8. He went to fight wars
For his country and his king
Of his honor and his glory
The people would sing

Lucky Man - ELP

9. And that sweet city woman
She moves through the light
Controlling my mind and my soul

Night Fever - BeeGees

10. Living in a fisheye lens
Caught in the camera eye
I have no heart to lie
I can't pretend a stranger is a long-awaited friend

Limelight - Rush

Oh, here they are!

11. Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me

Basket Case - Green Day

12. Yo, yo, yo, yo, baby-pop
Yeah, you! Come here, gimme a kiss
Better make it fast or else I'm gonna get pissed

Push It - Sisyphean Fan

Also Salt n Pepa. And thank you for including them in the trios because Spinderella does not get NEARLY the credit she deserves!!!1


Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with artist done by a trio.

All the Small Things - Blink 182

All of the power trios I could have used, not to mention the hip hop groups! I kind of had settled on the James Gang, but Green Day made me think of Blink and I had to get in a Fanny Fun Fact! They were originally just Blink and then found out an Irish group already had the name so they added the 182 for the number of times fuck was said in Scarface. They're also rather prominent in Colorado Avalanche lore, but I'll let sprots tell that story...

Yeah, I know I'm not getting a consecutive IBB, so I didn't bother with getting any photos off of my phone of Violet, Von and Earl together, but how cute is this see/speak/hear no evil picture? It would make a great tattoo!

4. Trying to smile but

That we cry until dawn
Hold Me Now - Thompson Twins

6. I ain't goin' to school it starts too early for me
Well listen man I ain't goin' to school no more it starts much, much too early for me

(Parenthetical) Sexy + 17 - Stray Cats (My favorite of theirs, and also, their best video...)

Controlling my mind and my soul
Night Fever - Bee Gees

10. Living in a fisheye lens
Caught in the camera eye

Panic was in rare form today, right up to the Image Bonus which my morbid sense of humor enjoyed immensely! I fucking hate cereal mascots and their annoying ads I had to put up with while watching cartoons. IBB for him!

JJC Points:


Weasel gets 2 JJC points for the fake Stooges (I had never heard of this movie before, but it can't be as bad as the travesty ABC aired during WWTBAM's primetime run...)

Panic gets a supermax for Bananaramalama, Thompson Triplets and SNAP! CRACKLE! POP!!!!

jarnon gets a JJC point for the real Stooges...

elwood gets 2 JJC points for more Stooges and that great Hank Hill line...

ear gets 3 JJC points for the Powerpuff Girls, which I wasn't expecting...

Vandal gets 3 JJC points for having a nipple fetish...

Search gets a JJC point for the Mod Squad, which I never watched...

mikeh gets 2 JJC points for threesomes in the office...

mrk gets 3 JJC points for gravitational tug of war...

My humor muscle sucks lately, as much as my lyric knowledge. Just wanted you to know not ignoring.
