People TELL ME I'm the life of the party
"Cause I tell a joke or two...
Smokey Robinson (The Tracks of My Tears)
Yes I believe color's was The Beatles!
Only the lonely
Know the way I feel tonight...
Roy Orbison
We walked the loneliest mile
We smiled without any style
We kiss altogether wrong
No intention
We lied about each others drinks
We lived without each other thinkin'
What anyone would do
Without me and you
Chorus:
It's like I told you
ONLY THE LONELY can play
The Motels
Third Eye Blind: Blinded
Just an old friend coming over
Now to visit you and
That's what I've become
I let myself in
Though I know I'm not supposed to but
I never know when I'm done
And I see you fogging up the mirror
Vapor around your body glistens in the shower
And I wanna stay right here
And go down on you for an hour
Or stay and let the day just fade away
In a wild dedication
Take the moment of hope
And let it run
Never look back
At all the damage we have done now
To EACH OTHER
To each other
To each other
I'm gonna tell you how it's gonna be
You're gonna give your love to me
I'm gonna love you night and day
Well love is love and not FADE AWAY
Well love is love and not fade away
NIGHT AND DAY
You are the one
Only you 'neath the moon
Or under the sun
Whether near to me
Or far, it's no matter,
Darling where you are
I think of you
Day and night
Night and day
Why is it so
That this longing for you
Follows wherever I go
In the roaring traffic's boom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you
Day and night
Night and day
Under the hide of me
There's an oh, such a hungry,
Yearning, burning inside of me
And it's torment won't let me through
'Til you let me spend my life
Making love to you
Day and night
Night and Day
Lyrics by Frank Sinatra-would you believe it?
WHERE DID YOU SLEEP LAST NIGHT--
Nirvana
My girl, my girl don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
My girl, my girl where will you go
I'm going where the cold wind blows
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through...
THE SUN ain't gonna shine anymore
The moon ain't gonna rise in the sky
Tears are always clouding your eyes
When you're without love
Lonely
Without you
Baby
Oh, I need you
I can't go on
I had to laugh at Nirvana getting credit for a folk song that goes way back to the twenties called "In The Pines"
Indeed :wink:; well, it dates back longer than that: it was an Appalachian folk song, adapted by Leadbelly. I was, however, posting an excerpt from their rendering of the song, which is rather different to those of Leadbelly and the native people.
Edit: changing emoticon.
Well excuuuuuuuuse me!
I wasn't being smug, really. I'll try and get a listen to Nirvana's version.
THE SUN whose rays
Are all ablaze
With ever-living glory.
Does not deny
His majesty--
He scorns to tell a story!
He don't exclaim,
"I blush for shame,
So kindly be indulgent."
But, fierce and bold,
In fiery gold,
He glories all effulgent!
Gilbert (& Sullivan)
THE SUN is a mass
Of incandescent gas
A gigantic nuclear furnace
A remembered bit of a childrens song we sung in third grade
Neither was I; I was just telling you in case that you thought that I am another person who knows nothing that was made after nineteen-ninety-two!
Bob Dylan: Joey.
The sun turned cold over President Street and the town of the Brooklyn mourned.
They said A MASS in the old church near the house where he was born.
And someday if God's in heaven overlooking his preserve
I know the men that shot him down will get what they deserve.
Yellow Submarine : Beatles
In THE TOWN where I was born lived a man who sailed the sea.
And he told us of his life in the land of submarines.
I WAS BORN under a wanderin' star
I was born under a wanderin' star
Traditional
I WAS BORN in East Virginia
North Car'lina I did go
There I courted a pretty young woman
And her age I did not know.
PYT
...PYT. PRETTY YOUNG thing
TLC. Tender lovin' care...
(Michael Jackson - don't hurt me for this one!)
Yeah..ohhh
Where is your lovin'?
Where's your lovin'?
I'm in it for somethin' I think it's your lovin'
Your huggin' your kissin' your sweet tender lovin'
The thought of you comin' makes me come a runnin'
I ran all the way just a pushin' and shovin'
Where's your lovin'?
Where's your lovin'?
