Morning!
Here's something a little different from the What is it thread. Below are ten lyrics from different songs. All are the first line or two. One point is awarded for the first correct answer for the artist another another for the song name. You can guess as many as you like, but only one post in the first 4 hours of the game. Please don't look up the lyrics on internet sites
Points will be awarded at judge's (me ) discretion!
1- "This bed is on fire with passion and Love" Laid - James Vicam
2- "Though I've tried before to tell her of the feelings I have for her in my heart, every time that I come near her, I just lose my nerve as I've done from the start" Every little thing she does is magic - Police Shell
3- "The Mississippi Delta was shining like a national guitar, I am following the river, down the highway through the craddle of the civil war" - more of a folk singer, 1987 album of the year grammy. Graceland - Paul Simon KellyAnderson
4- "I can't stop, the way I feel, Things you do don't seem real" -ok, this one's tough as you can't actually really understand the guy who's singing (really high voice). 80's stuff, British band She Drives Me crazy - Fine Young Cannibals
5- "That's great it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes..." It's the end of the world as we know it - REM Melissa
6- "Drove downtown in the rain" Brian Wilson - Barenaked Ladies JenX
7- "Sometimes you're better off dead, there's a gun in your hand, pointing at your head" West End Girls - Pet shop boys Shell
8- "Blame it all on my roots, I showed up in boots" Friends in low places - Garth Brooks Jules (sorry shell, she beat you to it)
9- "Where it began, I can't begin to know when" Sweet Carline - Neil Diamond Vicam
10- "When the night has come, and the land is dark" Stand By Me Vicam
Ben E. King
Standings so far:
1- Vicam - 5 points
2- Shell - 4 points
tied for third - Jen, Melissa, Jules, Kelly Anderson
I tried to make some easy and some challenging, we'll see how quickly you clever folks can get them.

ya, you can guess as many as you like in the post, but actually I think I'll wave that rule for this one as Linz is already mad at me, so guess away.

by the way, i would have thought that the second word needed the ***s, not the "bl**dy" part! is bl**dy much stronger of an epithet over there in England than i thought?

she's not mad at you, she's mad at her fibro! ![](/messageboards/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif)
or so she says.
i think she simply isn't good at this kind of game. me either! but when fibro makes the brain foggy, it's even worse. poor Linzy!

Ok, I do know # 5...It's REM and the song is "The End of the World as We Know It"....That's the only one I know out of all the songs, though!!

I guess "oh hell" isn't much of a baddie over here!
Glad I crack you up! I'm currently on a yoga high after my lunchtime session! ![](/messageboards/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif)
PS. I love this time of time when you guys come onto the boards and I have someone to talk to (even though I'm busier in the afternoons!).
