Pity noone has responded to this. This could be a fun topic...one of those rare ones

However, thats from Queen of course

I'll start you guys off with an easy one

I found an island in your arms
Country in your eyes
Arms that chain us
Eyes that lie

wow, I didn't think it would be that hard. The extreme weird lyrics kinda gave it away I think.
Oh well, I suppose you also know which song?

And I have absolutely no idea what song you're quoting...

Bandersnatch

Doors, Break On Through, is it not? hence the "weird" lyrics.

Everybody loves my baby
Everybody loves my baby
She gets, she gets
She gets, she gets

I found an island in your arms
A country in your eyes
Arms that chain us
Eyes that lied
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side


unless someone is practicing plagism - that really is the Doors!

The Doors - Break on through (to the other side), cannot remember release date!

ARG, chips beat me to it! I LOVE THE DOORS.

Hmm, Ill put a hard one sort of.


Words you say never seem
To live up to the ones
Inside your head
The lives we make
Never seem to ever get us anywhere
But dead

Way way to simple:

Words you say never seem
To live up to the ones inside your head
The lives we make never seem
To ever get us anywhere but dead

Taken from the track 'The day I tried to live' by Soundgarden - album 'Superunknown'


Here be mine for you to ponder on - shouldn't be too tough - picked a very memorable lyric

you insult me in my home
you're forgiven this time
things go well, your eyes dilate
you shake, and I'm high?
look in my eyes deep and watch
the clouds change with time

easy one Chips
Alice in Chains: Sludge Factory

I like that song.

something for u - also not hard (lets start easy):
-------------------------------
Some say the end is near.
Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will cuz
I sure could use a vacation from this
Silly ****, stupid ****...
One great big festering neon distraction,
I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied.

...everyones doing easy ones... I'll give you a hard one.


You're walkin down the street
And a man tries get your buisness
And the People that you meet
Want to open you meet wanna open you up like christmas

You gotta wrap your fuzzy with a big red bow
Ain't no sumb*tch gonna treat me like a ho
I'm a classy honey kissey huggey lovey dovey ghetto princess

so what song is it?

-------------------------------------
Floating high above her bed
Staring at her fathers head
Wishing one of them were dead.....

Floating high abover her bed
Staring at her fathers head
Wishing one of them were dead
So this hell could finally end
--------------------------------------

@LordFjord - Tool, Aenemia

@Loveshark - Scissor Sisters, Filthy/Gorgeous

@Darkshadow - Stabbing Westwood, Sleep


Right, Lets move on then:

My pain is self-chosen
At least so the prophet says
I could either burn
Or cut off my pride and buy some time
A head full of lies is the weight tied to my waist
