Fave Line from a Song

[Jason_12]

Out of all the songs out there, which line/line's from them is most special to you?
It doesn't have to be your favourite song, just a line that is significant or special to you.

Mine would be from Pearl Jam's 'Elderly woman behind a counter in a small town': "I just want to scream hello, my God its been so long, never dreamed you'd return."
It's significant because my brother went away for a year and it sometimes seemed like he'd never come back, which is why I always think of him when I hear that song and why it's so special.

Another is 'Sad Lisa' by Cat Stevens, fair dinkum I can't even listen to that song anymore. But the most special lines are: "She walks alone from wall to wall, lost in a hall she can't hear me, though I know she likes to be near me."

Which lines from a song are special to you and why? (you don't have to say why if you don't want to)

 

[AngelEyes]

Don't carry the world upon your shoulders
- The Beatles ; Hey Jude (Lennon/McCartney)

 

[Psycho Logical]

Here's an oldie a song called "Spirit of the Age" from a group called Hawkwind. It was a song that I used to listen to in my younger days (25 years ago) and I always loved the words.

"Being a clone I am not alone. Every fibre of my flesh and bone is identical to the other. Everything I say is in the same tone as my test tube brother's voice.
There is no choice between us, if you had ever seen us, you'd rejoice in your uniqueness and consider every weakness something special of your own."

 

[Tormented Tiger]

These lyrics bring back a few ghosts from the past

I've seen the needle and the damage done
A little part of it in everyone
But every junkie's like a settin' sun.

 

[Stakerz]

Yesterday, All my troubles seemed so far away - Beatles

 

[funkyfreo]

I'm like a waterlogged ball, that no-one wants to kick around anymore.

Heavy heart - You AM I.

 

[materamagic]

"ain't there one damn song that can make me...break down and cry-y-y"

from young americans 1975 david bowie

another would be any line from one of the best written beatle songs. the lyrics are as follows, you choose the best line because i cant its so good

Words are flying out like
endless rain into a paper cup
They slither while they pass
They slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow waves of joy
are drifting thorough my open mind
Possessing and caressing me

Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Images of broken light which
dance before me like a million eyes
That call me on and on across the universe
Thoughts meander like a
restless wind inside a letter box
they tumble blindly as
they make their way across the universe

Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Sounds of laughter shades of life
are ringing through my open ears
exciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which
shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on across the universe

Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Jai guru deva
Jai guru deva

 

[GhostofJimJess]

Not a really passionate Billy Bragg afficiando, but there is one line from "Greetings To The New Brunette" that has always appealed to me.

"How can you lie there and think of England, when you don't even know who's in the team?"

Or from the profound minds that are the Cosmic Psychos ..

"I wanna be like David Lee Roth, I want forty girls to suck me off"

and then of course there's ...

"Ya' drive me up the wall, I ain't no spider!"

 

[8485]

"i'm not mr right, i'm mr right-now" from a song released recently - dunno which- but i love the line (& the songs ok too)

 

[Milkman]

I've got it!
I'll be sullen and withdrawn --
I'll dwindle off into the twilight realm
Of my own secret thoughts
I'll lay on my back here 'til dawn,
In a semi-catatonic state
And dream of guitar notes
That would irritate
An EXECUTIVE KINDA GUY . . .

Outside - Frank Zappa.

When heard with the music, it's pure genius.

 

[Contra Mundum]

Not a really passionate Billy Bragg afficiando, but there is one line from "Greetings To The New Brunette" that has always appealed to me.

"How can you lie there and think of England, when you don't even know who's in the team?"

Or from the profound minds that are the Cosmic Psychos ..

"I wanna be like David Lee Roth, I want forty girls to suck me off"

and then of course there's ...

"Ya' drive me up the wall, I ain't no spider!"

My favourite Billy Bragg Lines are:

"The Revolution is just another T-Shirt away" - somes up the undergraduate left in Australia

the other one:

"I did'nt make the first team I just made the first team laugh"

Also, Levi Stubbs Tears is so brilliant you could not subtract a line from it - other than:

"Her husband was one of those blokes who always laughs at his own jokes"

 

[moistie]

"Get crazy with the cheese wiz" - Beck

 

[IDGAF]

" The talk of politicians , sentences of synics " - Brave Faces - Midnight Oil
( i wonder if that one will come back to haunt Peter one day )

" He thinks i just became famous and that`s what messed me up , but he`s wrong , how could i possibly know what i want when i was only 21 "
Emporers New Cloths -Sinnaed O`Conner

" A beer for you , A wine cooler for me " Wonderful Life - Celibate
Rifles

 

[Captain Sensible]

Or from the profound minds that are the Cosmic Psychos ..

"I wanna be like David Lee Roth, I want forty girls to suck me off"

There you go I always thought it was fourteen year old girls to suck me off. Oh well, I want a great big rubber hose, I want to get 'round in them pantyhose.



My favorite line is Black Flag's Thirty five dollars and a six pack to my name from "six pack"

Or The Hard Ons

When we're alone at night, with your box so tight, I just want to come on your face from "I think about you every day" One year for valentines day I translated it into french and put it into the ads they have in the paper for my girlfriend. The lady said "its nothing rude is it?" "Noooooooo" I said

 

[Shinboners]

"I've been kissing my cigarette wishing it was you" - "Kissing Things" by the Sixths

 

[Roobunny]

either

"And the 4 right chords could make me cry" - 3rd Eye Blind's Semi Charmed Life

or

"My anaconda don't want none unless you've got buns, hon" - Sir Mix-A-Lot's Baby Got Back

 

[Atreyu]

I have a few.. and yes... theyr all from songs written by The Used. They all have massive significance to me...

"...each day gets more and more like the next. And still I can see it coming, while in standing in the river drowning.. this could be my chance to break out, this could be my chance to say goodbye.." - The Taste Of Ink

"From the way that you acted to the way that we felt this, it wasnt worth my time, and now it seems that all i've missed, wasnt that good to begin with" - Bulimic

"You almost always pick the best times, to drop the worst lines, you almost made me cry again this time.." - Buried Myself Alive

"Lights out, I cant stand to hear you scream, while we were making love, I was fast asleep.." - Listening

"Should have done something but I;ve done it enough, by the way your hands were shaking rather waste some time with you" - Blue And Yellow

I could go on forever.. but i'll stop here.

all from eminem - superman (minus chorus)

They call me Superman,
Leap tall hoes in a single bound,

Got no ring on this finger now,
I'll never let another chick bring me down,
In a relationship, save it bitch, babysit? you make me sick,
Superman aint savin ********, girl you can jump on shady's ********,
Straight from the hip, cut to the chase,
I'll tell a mo'********in ******** to her face,
Play no games, say no names, ever since I broke up with what's her face,
I'm a different man, kiss my ass, kiss my lips, bitch why ask?
Kiss my ********, hit my cash, i'd rather have you whip my ass,
Don't put out? i'll put you out,
Won't get out? i'll push you out,
Puss blew out, copin ********,
Wouldn't ******** on fire to put you out,
Am I too nice? buy you ice,
Bitch if you died, wouldn't buy you life,
What you tryin to be, my new wife?
What you Mariah? fly through twice,
But I do know one thing though,
Bitches they come, they go,
Saturday through sunday monday,
Monday through sunday yo,
Maybe i'll love you one day,
Maybe we'll someday grow,
Till then just sit your drunk ass on that ********in runway hoe...


Don't get me wrong,
I love these hoes,
It's no secret,
Everybody knows,

Bitch so what?
That's about as far as your buddy goes,
We'll be friends,
I'll call you again,
I'll chase you around every bar you attend,
Never know what kind of car i'll be in,
[Woman Screaming]
We'll see how much you'll be partying then,
You don't want that,
Neither do I,
I don't wanna flip when I see you with guys,
Too much pride,
Between you and I,
Not a jealous man, but females lie,
But I guess that's just what ********s do,
How could it ever be just us two?
Never loved you enough to trust you,
We just met and I just ********ed you,
But I do know one thing though,
Bitches they come they go,
Saturday through Sunday monday,
Monday through Sunday yo,
Maybe I'll love you one day,
Maybe we'll someday grow,
'Till then just sit your drunk ass on that ********in runway hoe...

That's ammo for my arsenal,
I'll snap you off that bar stool,
There goes another lawsuit,
Leave handprints all accross you,
Good lordy-wody you must be blown off that water bottle,
You want what you can't have,
Ooh girl that's too damn bad,
Don't touch what you can't grab,
End up with two back hands,
Put Anthrax on a Tampax and slap you till you can't stand,
Girl you just blew your chance,
Don't mean to ruin your plans,
But I do know one thing though,
Bitches they come they go,
Saturday through Sunday Monday,
Monday through Sunday yo,
Maybe I'll love you one day,
Maybe we'll someday grow,
'Till then just sit your drunk ass on that ********in runway hoe...
