Opening Lyric Trivia

[Lallapalalable]

Okay, this was a facebook game my friend sent me, and it was pretty fun so Ill share it with anyone who didnt get it.

You put your MP3 player or media player on random, and with the first ten songs that come up, you post the first line to each one and see who can guess the song/artist. Now, I cant really do that, because I have a dinky little 1 gigger, and most of it is either pink floyd or chili peppers, and my media player was recently deleted ( ), so it would be redundant. So, Ill pick ten songs from my collection and see who can guess!

1. I seem to recognize your face-Pear Jam, "Elderly Woman" (full title for bonus points?)Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town
2. I think Im gonna be sad-The Beatles, "Ticket to Ride"
3. The albatross hangs motionless-Pink Floyd, "Echoes"
4. Growing up it all seemed so one sided-Rush, "Subdivisions"
5. White men came, across the sea-Iron Maiden, "Run to the Hills"
6. You are my god, you are my dog-Red Hot Chili Peppers, "Trancending"
7. Monday, back from the dead-Stone Temple Pilots, "Days of the Week"
8. Listen to the wind blow-Fleetwood Mac, "The Chain"
9. There must be some kind of way out of here-Bob Dylan, "All Along the Watchtower"
10. You think we look pretty good together-The Who, "Substitute"

Hint: All of them are a form of rock (classic, alternative, pop, etc)

And be fair; dont google that shit!

EDIT:

Means it was answered
Means Artist or Title was answered, but not the other

1 no!
2 yes
3 right on the artist, but thats not enough
7 no
8 yes

 

[Netheralian]

1 is Pearl Jam - Elderly Lady blah blah...

Shit - thats all I got other than some that Prolescum also got.

 

[Pulsar]

3. Echoes.
8. Fleetwood Mac - The Chain.

 

[Prolescum]

Silly me, I meant 8 for Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody, but I now agree with Pulsar that it's the Chain. Defo.

 

[AndromedasWake]

No one got 5? It's Iron Maiden - Run To The Hills. Epic tune!

 

[Lucifer Adam]

10. Substitute by The Who

 

[Lallapalalable]

1 is Pearl Jam - Elderly Lady blah blah...

dunno if I can give this to you...even if I didnt want the entire title (not necessary as they abbreviate it themselves), you still got an incorrect word. Right artist though.

3. Echoes.
8. Fleetwood Mac - The Chain.

yes and yes.

No one got 5? It's Iron Maiden - Run To The Hills. Epic tune!

yes, and indeed!

10. Substitute by The Who

damn straight (I think this is one of their best pre-awesome songs)

 

[Netheralian]

Woman/Lady - its all the same...

 

[Lallapalalable]

Woman/Lady - its all the same...

yeah ok

Well seeing as you've posted the answers i guess it's someone news turn to put up 10 songs, I'll give it a go:

1. Darlin' darlin' darlin', I can't wait to see you.
2. Little girl's eyes open wide, Two ways to go but you can't decide
3. Y'know that I want your loving, but my logic tells me that it aint never gonna happen
4. Once upon a time in Louisiana, I found myself half wasted late at night
5. I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail
6. Winged with steel they fill the air, The soldiers of fortune will ride
7. In the backroom of the bar, crusty fingernails I saw him
8. Have you ever stopped to think about what rats do for fun?
9. I'm gonna say it like I mean it, We've let this go on to long.
10. Last night I woke alone with a whisper in my ear, Recanting all my aspirations and my fears.

I gave the first 2 lines on most of them since the first line didn't seem like enough to go on, a few of these are a little obscure (i have a lot of random crap on my mp3 player) I'll be impressed if most of them get named, good luck.

umm...I have no clue. Im going to guess theyre mostly country, though, and I only ever listen to country as background noise at bars.

 

[Case]

No idea IBSpify, don't listen to Country.

Here's my list if anyone wants to take a shot:

1) People going nowhere, taken for a ride \ Looking for the answers that they know inside
2) Well I've been too high and that's too low \ and the fastest speed is much too slow
3) It's a long way to nowhere \ And I'm leaving very soon
4) You can say that I'm one curly fry in the box of the regular \ Messing with the flavor oh the flavor that you savor
5) Really hate the running really hate the game \ Looking at them all I wanna be unborn again
6) Breadfan, open up your mind, open up your purse \ Open up your vault, never, never gonna lose it
7) Do unto others as they have done to you \ But what the hell is this world coming to?
8) Proud 'n Free like will of steel \ Our hearts are as pure as the silence of a night
9) Ah, the itchy flakes, it is flaming \ To, the gels and creams, it is pertaining
10) In one last breath You'll feel this damned old soul \ You'll see the things I see

I predict 2 and 8 won't be easily recognized (unless CommanderGoogle steps in)

I predict 2 and 8 won't be easily recognized (unless CommanderGoogle steps in)

Unless who now?

But no, I don't recognize any of yours, or IBSpify's. If either of you guys are posting classic rock songs, I am ashamed, as that's pretty much all I listen to.

 

[Case]

Yea it's all pretty damn classic. Not to say classy. If Singer walks into this thread, I bet about half of my songs would be cleared.

 

[IBSpify]

There isn't any country, (I don't listen to country either) however there is some ska, and some classic pop, punk, and rock

However since nobody seems to be able to guess them, I'm going to modify the game slightly, I'm going to give the artist and song title in a random order, and we'll see if we can place them with the lyrics already posted

1. Darlin' darlin' darlin', I can't wait to see you.
2. Little girl's eyes open wide, Two ways to go but you can't decide
3. Y'know that I want your loving, but my logic tells me that it aint never gonna happen
4. Once upon a time in Louisiana, I found myself half wasted late at night
5. I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail
6. Winged with steel they fill the air, The soldiers of fortune will ride
7. In the backroom of the bar, crusty fingernails I saw him
8. Have you ever stopped to think about what rats do for fun?
9. I'm gonna say it like I mean it, We've let this go on to long.
10. Last night I woke alone with a whisper in my ear, Recanting all my aspirations and my fears.

there is the lyrics again, now the artists/song in random order

Dance Hall Crashers, Whiskey and Gin
Violent Femmes, Promise
Dropkick Murphy's, Good Rats
Streetlight Manifesto, Watch It Crash
Blondie, In the Flesh
Thin Lizzy, Cowboy Song
Black Sabbath, Glory Ride
Reel Big Fish, The Fire
Red Elvises, Drinking with Jesus
Bad Religion, Lose as Directed

At least a few of them should be super easy now.

 

[dreddin]

i was about to play but then i read the ''echoes'' lyrics, and now I'm going to watch ''live in Pompeii'' instead

Dont know what youre implying, but I did see a mistake in that lyric. It should have read "Overhead the albatross/hangs motionless upon the breeze"

I did that one on pure memory, because I didnt want to kill 5 minutes just to get to the singing :| So sorry to anyone who would have otherwise guessed it sooner.

EDIT: I DO know what youre impying ! I have to stop posting when Im drunk/high :shock: .
