Guess the Song by the Lyrics

So, the title is pretty self-explanatory. I’ll post lyrics from the first random 25 songs on my iPod and you all leave me notes if you know the song’s title and artist (some of these have been covered many times, so if you can, give me the original artist).  No cheating and using Google, either, ok? So here goes…

1. "She’s the kind of girl you want so much it makes you sorry. Still you don’t regret a single day."

2. "Suppose I kept on singing love songs just to break my own fall."

3. "In all its misery it will always be what I love and hated."

4. "But when you talk about destruction, don’t you know that you can count me out."

5. "I turned my collar to the cold and damp when my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light."

6. "The wind is low, the birds will sing that you are part of everything."

7. "He’s as blind as he can be, just sees what he wants to see."

8. "There is a wound inside me and it’s bleeding like a flood."

9. "I lived in stories but inside I kept a mystery."

10. "Well we can’t salute ya, can’t find a flag. If that don’t suite ya, that’s a drag."

11. "I’ll take a patch of New Mexico and I’ll call it mine."

12. "I play Russian Roulette everyday, a man’s sport, with a bullet called Life."

13. "You and me burning matches, lifting latches, on our way back home."

14. "I catch people starin’, looking funny at me, when I step to the window and I toss a TV."

15. "Don’t blame us if we ever doubt ya. You know we couldn’t live without ya."

16. "Tell me now how do I feel?"

17. "It’s breaking my heart  you’re leaving."

18. "Maybe I’m hard-headed or a little bit old-fashioned, but I always had a hard time fitting in."

19. "Shaking up boxes of letters, mementos in my old brown sweater."

20. "She stuck a note on the screen door – Sorry, but I got to go."

21. "Dead I am the sky, watching angels cry while they slowly turn, conquering the worm."

22. "It’s time I had some time alone."

23. "Dani the girl is singing songs to me beneath the marquee of her soul."

24. "I’ll pretend that I’m kissing the lips I am missing."

25. "Old Miss Lucy’s dead and gone, left me here to weep and moan."

Happy guessing!

Just so I don’t completely destroy one of your quizzes again, I’ll first say that a few of these songs jumped right out at me. And while I’ll admit that I don’t know every single one, I know a few. But I’ll put my favorites.

1)The Beatles – Girl 3)Aerosmith – Jaded 4)The Beatles – Revolution 5)Simon & Garfunkel – The Sounds of Silence (amazing song) 8)Dixie Chicks – Am I The Only One (yes, I listen to them too, but don’t tell anyone. :P) 10)Alice Cooper – School’s Out 12)System of a Down – Sugar (hell yes) 13)You sure have a lot of Beatles… (Two Of Us) 15)Dropkick Murphys – Tessie (It’s about the Red Sox! :D)

16)New Order – Blue Monday (though you probably have the Orgy version which is infinitely better) 17)Could be a lot of things, I think it’s a Cat Stevens song. 19)Elwood – Red Wagon 20)Sara Evans song I can’t remember the name of. 21)Rob Zombie – Dragula 23)Red Hot Chili Peppers – By The Way 24)Even more Beatles. 😛 Well, I got over half. (Oh. The name of the Sara Evans song is “Am I Right.”) ~J

Not really but that’s something I’ll bring up to Gran tomorrow 🙂 She loves stuff like that. How are you?

I can’t remember the books. I was hoping if I saw the title I’d remember. They were on sale at our Books A Million. Buy two get 1 free (if that’s a sale lol)
