Lyrically Speaking - 2/4/15

[Kay's Raspberry]

LB's never been one to get with the times. Heck, I've long since become obsolete, and his little "mobile device" is still older than me. His taste in music hasn't been much different since the 80's ended. Seven years ago, when Fanny posted a game with nothing but current songs, he only even recognized two of ten in the game, and even then didn't know a single damned title. It was sad...

But times have changed, and thanks to his radio station becoming more mainstream, and the Mecca CD's constantly playing at work actually being hip... LB's been forced to listen to a lot of new music... and surprise! he actually likes a lot of it! Below are 20 songs LB has heard a lot in the last few years on the radio or at Mecca that he's a big fan of, none of which I believe was released prior to 2012, and most of which are from the past year. Yes, he already knows many of you will totally bomb this game... but he really thinks you're missing out on some good stuff. After hearing some of what LB likes, though, I think I'd prefer to go back to the days when I was Chapman's teething ring....

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


1. First kiss just like a drug
Under your influence
You take me over you're the magic in my veins
This must be love

2. I can still hear you making that sound
Taking me down, rolling on the ground
You can pretend that it was me
But no

3. There's a maniac out in front of me.
Got an angel on my shoulder, and Mephistopheles.
My momma raised me good, momma raised me right.
Momma said "do what you want, say prayers at night"

4. She told me I was never looking for a friend
Maybe you could swing by my room around 10
Baby bring a lemon and a bottle of gin
We'll be in between the sheets 'til the late AM

5. So what are you gonna do
When the world don't orbit around you?
So what are you gonna do
When nobody wants to fool with you?

6. I stay out too late
Got nothing in my brain
That's what people say, mmm-mmm
That's what people say, mmm-mmm

7. And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above

8. I ain't trying to do what everybody else doing
Just ‘cause everybody doing what they all do
If one thing I know, how far would I grow?
I'm walking down this road of mine, this road that I call home

9. I want to hide the truth
I want to shelter you
But with the beast inside
There's nowhere we can hide

10. She got a body like an hourglass
But I can give it to you all the time
She got a booty like a Cadillac
But I can send you into overdrive, oh

11. The present has no ribbon
Your gift keeps on giving,
What is this I'm feeling?
If you wanna leave I'm ready

12. I'm in the de-details with the devil
So now the world can never get me on my level
I just got to get you out of the cage
I'm a young lover's rage
Gonna need a spark to ignite

13. So I met up with some friends at the edge of the night
At a bar off 75
And we talked and talked about how our parents will die
All our neighbors and wives

14. I eat my dinner in my bathtub
Then I go to sex clubs
Watching freaky people gettin' it on
It doesn't make me nervous
If anything I'm restless
Yeah, I've been around and I've seen it all

15. I was born without this fear
Now only this seems clear
I need to move, I need to fight
I need to lose myself tonight

16. If I know one thing, that's true
It ain't what you say, it's what you do
And you don't say much, yeah, that's true
But I listen when you do

17. How could you know, how could you know?
That those were my eyes
Peepin' through the floor, it's like they know
It's like they know I'm looking from the outside
And creeping to the door, it's like they know

18. Shot gun, aimed at my heart, you got one
Tear me apart and then some
How do we call this love?
I try to run away but your eyes
Tell me to stay oh why-y
Why do we call this love?

19. Pretty girl, pretty girl, pretty girl you should be smiling
A girl like you should never look so blue
You're everything I see in my dreams
I wouldn't say that to you if it wasn't true

20. I'm a little let down but I'm not dead
There's a little bit more that has to be said
You played me now I play you too
Let's just call it over

LB's never been one to get with the times. Heck, I've long since become obsolete, and his little "mobile device" is still older than me. His taste in music hasn't been much different since the 80's ended. Seven years ago, when Fanny posted a game with nothing but current songs, he only even recognized two of ten in the game, and even then didn't know a single damned title. It was sad...

But times have changed, and thanks to his radio station becoming more mainstream, and the Mecca CD's constantly playing at work actually being hip... LB's been forced to listen to a lot of new music... and surprise! he actually likes a lot of it! Below are 20 songs LB has heard a lot in the last few years on the radio or at Mecca that he's a big fan of, none of which I believe was released prior to 2012, and most of which are from the past year. Yes, he already knows many of you will totally bomb this game... but he really thinks you're missing out on some good stuff. After hearing some of what LB likes, though, I think I'd prefer to go back to the days when I was Chapman's teething ring....

Present.

[elwoodblues]

Spoiler

1. First kiss just like a drug
Under your influence
You take me over you're the magic in my veins
This must be love

2. I can still hear you making that sound
Taking me down, rolling on the ground
You can pretend that it was me
But no

He who smelt it, dealt it.

3. There's a maniac out in front of me.
Got an angel on my shoulder, and Mephistopheles.
My momma raised me good, momma raised me right.
Momma said "do what you want, say prayers at night"

4. She told me I was never looking for a friend
Maybe you could swing by my room around 10
Baby bring a lemon and a bottle of gin
We'll be in between the sheets 'til the late AM

5. So what are you gonna do
When the world don't orbit around you?
So what are you gonna do
When nobody wants to fool with you?

6. I stay out too late
Got nothing in my brain
That's what people say, mmm-mmm
That's what people say, mmm-mmm

7. And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above

8. I ain't trying to do what everybody else doing
Just ‘cause everybody doing what they all do
If one thing I know, how far would I grow?
I'm walking down this road of mine, this road that I call home

9. I want to hide the truth
I want to shelter you
But with the beast inside
There's nowhere we can hide

10. She got a body like an hourglass
But I can give it to you all the time
She got a booty like a Cadillac
But I can send you into overdrive, oh

11. The present has no ribbon
Your gift keeps on giving,
What is this I'm feeling?
If you wanna leave I'm ready

I think I need to go to the free clinic.

12. I'm in the de-details with the devil
So now the world can never get me on my level
I just got to get you out of the cage
I'm a young lover's rage
Gonna need a spark to ignite

13. So I met up with some friends at the edge of the night
At a bar off 75
And we talked and talked about how our parents will die
All our neighbors and wives

14. I eat my dinner in my bathtub
Then I go to sex clubs
Watching freaky people gettin' it on
It doesn't make me nervous
If anything I'm restless
Yeah, I've been around and I've seen it all

Sounds like a perfectly reasonable evening to me.

15. I was born without this fear
Now only this seems clear
I need to move, I need to fight
I need to lose myself tonight

16. If I know one thing, that's true
It ain't what you say, it's what you do
And you don't say much, yeah, that's true
But I listen when you do

17. How could you know, how could you know?
That those were my eyes
Peepin' through the floor, it's like they know
It's like they know I'm looking from the outside
And creeping to the door, it's like they know

18. Shot gun, aimed at my heart, you got one
Tear me apart and then some
How do we call this love?
I try to run away but your eyes
Tell me to stay oh why-y
Why do we call this love?

19. Pretty girl, pretty girl, pretty girl you should be smiling
A girl like you should never look so blue
You're everything I see in my dreams
I wouldn't say that to you if it wasn't true

20. I'm a little let down but I'm not dead
There's a little bit more that has to be said
You played me now I play you too
Let's just call it over

LB's never been one to get with the times. Heck, I've long since become obsolete, and his little "mobile device" is still older than me. His taste in music hasn't been much different since the 80's ended. Seven years ago, when Fanny posted a game with nothing but current songs, he only even recognized two of ten in the game, and even then didn't know a single damned title. It was sad...

But times have changed, and thanks to his radio station becoming more mainstream, and the Mecca CD's constantly playing at work actually being hip... LB's been forced to listen to a lot of new music... and surprise! he actually likes a lot of it! Below are 20 songs LB has heard a lot in the last few years on the radio or at Mecca that he's a big fan of, none of which I believe was released prior to 2012, and most of which are from the past year. Yes, he already knows many of you will totally bomb this game... but he really thinks you're missing out on some good stuff. After hearing some of what LB likes, though, I think I'd prefer to go back to the days when I was Chapman's teething ring....

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

Here I thought I'd make up for the previous day's poor performance with this one, but nope. It would have been a shut out for me had I not lucked into hearing the Ed Sheeran song on the radio and recognizing the snippet of lyrics you had used.

As for yesterday, after looking at the answers about the only one that I think I should have recognized was "To Live and Die in L.A." which I really like and is on my iPod. So though I'm kicking myself for not getting that one, it still wouldn't have helped me with the word of the day.

Without a calculator, I can tell that's about a 11% success rate. Wow... I was expecting low scores and a handful of blank papers... but nothing as disastrous as this! Despite the scant few correct answers, there were only 4 songs that were unanimously missed... but a couple of those are real head scratchers to me, because I'm sure they're popular on more than just my radio and Mecca's muzak....


1. First kiss just like a drug
Under your influence
You take me over you're the magic in my veins
This must be love
Boom Clap - Charli XCX (2 correct answers - Despite some of the other stuff she's done [Writing that annoying Icona Pop song, and helping Iggy Azalea with the wretched "Fancy"], this song is epic! I can't possibly not BOOM! CLAP! along with the song whenever it's on...)

2. I can still hear you making that sound
Taking me down, rolling on the ground
You can pretend that it was me
But no
Animals - Maroon 5 (2 correct answers - Maybe my new favorite Maroon 5 song... and that's saying something, because they've got a lot of songs I like...)

3. There's a maniac out in front of me.
Got an angel on my shoulder, and Mephistopheles.
My momma raised me good, momma raised me right.
Momma said "do what you want, say prayers at night"
Love Runs Out - OneRepublic (0 correct answers - I have no words for this. If I did my own Boneys list [The Beasties?], this would be my #1 song of 2014, easily. My Mom & Dad, who are 60 and about to be 60, LOVE this song. It is impossible NOT to like this song! Come on... it's gotta be better known than it showed in this game...)

4. She told me I was never looking for a friend
Maybe you could swing by my room around 10
Baby bring a lemon and a bottle of gin
We'll be in between the sheets 'til the late AM
Don't - Ed Sheeran (4 correct answers - A song I threw in for the hell of it... my station just started playing it, and I kinda like it...)

5. So what are you gonna do
When the world don't orbit around you?
So what are you gonna do
When nobody wants to fool with you?
Ain't It Fun - Paramore (1 correct answer - My station wore this song out last summer, then I've heard it once since then... not counting at Mecca, where it landed on the Summer CD)

6. I stay out too late
Got nothing in my brain
That's what people say, mmm-mmm
That's what people say, mmm-mmm
Shake It Off - Taylor Swift (5 correct answers, making it the most recognized song in the game - The latest in a string of actually good songs from the Queen of Heartbreak... at least until she ruined it with "Blank Space." I love getting down to This Sick Beat®....)

7. And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
Pompeii - Bastille (4 correct answers - Previous year Boney winner, and well deserved... though I like "Flaws" even better...)

8. I ain't trying to do what everybody else doing
Just ‘cause everybody doing what they all do
If one thing I know, how far would I grow?
I'm walking down this road of mine, this road that I call home
Am I Wrong - Niko & Vinz (0 correct answers - There are places in this country where it's possible to avoid this song? Wow, who knew? I still don't get tired of hearing it, even with the incessant play on the radio and at work...)

9. I want to hide the truth
I want to shelter you
But with the beast inside
There's nowhere we can hide
Demons - Imagine Dragons (4 correct answers - Radioactive got all the love, but this is my favorite from the Dragons...)

10. She got a body like an hourglass
But I can give it to you all the time
She got a booty like a Cadillac
But I can send you into overdrive, oh
Bang Bang - Jessie J, Ariana Grande, and I think Nikki Minaj (2 correct answers - I probably wouldn't like anything these three did solo... yet this song kicks ass...)

11. The present has no ribbon
Your gift keeps on giving,
What is this I'm feeling?
If you wanna leave I'm ready
Get Lucky - Daft Punk (4 correct answers - Another gem from 2013 that I couldn't resist using. You all are lucky I already used Blurred Lines...)

12. I'm in the de-details with the devil
So now the world can never get me on my level
I just got to get you out of the cage
I'm a young lover's rage
Gonna need a spark to ignite
My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark - Fallout Boy (1 correct answer - So I actually like a Fallout Boy song... who's have ever guessed?)

13. So I met up with some friends at the edge of the night
At a bar off 75
And we talked and talked about how our parents will die
All our neighbors and wives
Carry On - fun. (5 correct answers, tying it with Taylor! - Again, their other two hits got all the accolades, but I like this one over them both...)

14. I eat my dinner in my bathtub
Then I go to sex clubs
Watching freaky people gettin' it on
It doesn't make me nervous
If anything I'm restless
Yeah, I've been around and I've seen it all
Habits (Stay High) - Tove Lo (1 correct answer - Since my station started playing this a couple months ago, it has been a constant earworm in my head. A classic example of a song I didn't care for the first time I heard it, only to have it grow on me in a big way...)

15. I was born without this fear
Now only this seems clear
I need to move, I need to fight
I need to lose myself tonight
Come With Me - KONGOS (1 correct answer - My radio station, Mecca CD, AND it was played a lot at Busch Stadium last year. Some music is unavoidable...)

16. If I know one thing, that's true
It ain't what you say, it's what you do
And you don't say much, yeah, that's true
But I listen when you do
Love Don't Die - The Fray (0 correct answers - This one doesn't surprise me, but only because it wasn't really a hit. But it should have been, because it fucking rocks... and makes up for all the shitty music this band released in the past...)

17. How could you know, how could you know?
That those were my eyes
Peepin' through the floor, it's like they know
It's like they know I'm looking from the outside
And creeping to the door, it's like they know
Dangerous - Big Data with Joywave (1 correct answer - I've featured each of these past two songs on my blog's Mecca Muzak Monday in the past. This one is a killer electronica-style song that I fell in love with from almost the very first note...)

18. Shot gun, aimed at my heart, you got one
Tear me apart and then some
How do we call this love?
I try to run away but your eyes
Tell me to stay oh why-y
Why do we call this love?
Me and My Broken Heart - Rixton (0 correct answers - Again, how was this song so avoidable?)

19. Pretty girl, pretty girl, pretty girl you should be smiling
A girl like you should never look so blue
You're everything I see in my dreams
I wouldn't say that to you if it wasn't true
Treasure - Bruno Mars (2 correct answers - Bruno led off with it at last year's Super Bowl. Best Bruno Mars song hands down!)

20. I'm a little let down but I'm not dead
There's a little bit more that has to be said
You played me now I play you too
Let's just call it over
Girls Chase Boys - Ingrid Michaelson (2 correct answers - Just when I was beginning to lose my faith in the Boneys, TBone surprised me by saying this song would make the list!!! I love this song... it's just so... I don't know it's just really fun to sing along to. Ingrid's a fucking genius of happy making pop!)


Image Bonus: Show me something that's recently been trendy!

Rainbow Donkey wins, of course. Esto piles onto his top score with the 5 point IBB....

[T_Bone0806]

I have heard some of the songs I missed...Tove Lo and Big Data are the only ones I haven't heard at all..but not often enough to recognize lyrics from them. Girls Chase Boys is infectious, no doubt about it...although to be honest, I could do without the video. I like a lot of Maroon 5's stuff, but not Animals. So it's not one I've paid much attention to.

There are no ANTI-Boneys, but if there were, Bang Bang would be in the top 3..all I can hear is 3 women screaming and trying to drown each other out..no musicality at all...All that's missing from the melisma-fest is Aguilera and Carey. The other two entries in my 2014 hate parade are One you also mentioned as not being fond of, "Fancy", with Iggy and Charli SDXZXEDSE or whatever the heck her name is, so we're in agreement on that one. Rounding out my terrible trio is "All About That Bass" by Meghan Trainor. Got no problem with the message "behind" it (pardon the pun), but the song itself gives new definition to words like "irritating" and "annoying"..worst of all, you can't get that crap out of your brain for hours...to the point where if a lobotomy would remove it from my head I'd seriously consider it.

So what DID I like from 2014? All will be revealed in a couple of weeks...

My exclusion of "Bass" from the game pretty much says what I think about that one. Sad thing is... it's a really great song... kind of a mashup of hip hop and doo wop (Hip wop? Doo hop?)... but it's wrapped around THE MOST FUCKING ANNOYING hook in pop music history. Seriously, Meghan? That sounds like ass.....

I look forward to the real Boneys, though, as I did last year now that I'm more in tune with newer stuff!

Don't know if anyone else saw it, but Meghan Trainor almost caused problems for the KidzBop franchise. They, in an attempt to sanitize the word "booty" from the lyric "I'm bringing booty back," changed the lyric to "I'm bringing it all back." Parents, naturally, who were used to hearing the Trainor version and knew what the word was supposed to be, claimed that it sounded like the darling children were singing, "I'm bringing anal back."

In terms of internet sensations, it was pretty much a one-day-wonder, but I did giggle a little.

I actually like the song, and the nearly-identical followup about lips moving.

Well, I'm bringing Oral back! And with it... the expectation of penance checks for all of the foul, vulgar, and ungodlike words being dispensed from this hellhole of a message board. Now, everyone open up their hymn books to page 69....

I'm all about that praise, 'bout that praise, no devil....
