Meaningfull lyrics.... (another boring music question)

<< < (7/30) > >>

Bush Tucker Man:
Right, let's have a go then.

1.????

2. 'Jean Genie', David Bowie
(or was he still Ziggy at that stage?)

3. 'Wuthering Heights', Kate Bush
(not as good as the Babushka video, songwise I prefer 'Cloudbusting')

4. 'Video killed the Radiostar', Buggles
(Was it Trevor Horn, the 'Art of noise' guy?)

5. ???

6. 'Norwegian Wood', Beatles
(Was it George harrison or Ravi Shankar playing the Sitar


7. ??

8. 'I'm Mandy (fly me)', 10CC

9. 'American Pie', Don McLean
(Why did Madonna have to 'slaughter' this song? I take it you know it's an allegory about American music?)

10. 'Bohemian Rhapsody', Queen
(As if no-one knew. Most memorably featured for the best use of an AMC Pacer in 'Waynes World')

Sorry, have I spoilt it for everyone at work tomorrow, still no-ones got any of mine apart from Maddy with 'Maybelline'.

Come on they're not too hard, well maybe the first 3 are.

Bush Tucker Man:
"If all you've got to prove today is your innocence
Calm down,you're as guilty as can be
If all we've got to lose alludes to yesterday
Yesterdays through
Now do anything you please"

"On a mission to make something happen
Feel like Delilah lookin' for Sampson
Do a little mattress dancin'
That's right I said mattress dancin' "

"Saw a Dead-Head sticker on a Cadillac*
Little voice inside my head saying don't look back
You can never look back
Thought I knew what love was, what did I know
Those days are gone forever
I should just let 'em go"


"You've heard about the legend of Jesse James**
And John Henry just to mention some names
There's a truck drivin' legend in the south today
A man called ..........from Atlanta GA"
"Every gear-jammer knows his name
Swear he's got ice water runnin' in his veins
A foot like lead and nerves like steel
He's gonna go to Glory ridin' 18-wheels"


*quite possibly one of the best  summer tracks ever

**Clue. From film soundtrack, sung by actor from film (played guitar for, & had a song covered by Elvis Presley)

All car related, however loosely

Donald the Disco:
Maddy,

I think No 5. is by Queen,  can't think of the title yet !!

Andy.:
#5 Queen 'Another Bites The Dust'

and yeah got #10, classic :D

Andy.:
" I dreamed I saw on a moon lit stair,
  spreading his hands on the multitude there"


"Captain Cook and Cain and Able, Jimi Hendrix to the Tower of Babel"


"My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies,
Fairytales of yesterday will grow but never die"
