What's your favourite line/lyric from a song?

Recommended Posts

 

 

 

Mine is, "Wish I did'nt know now what I did'nt know then."

It comes from Against the wind by Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band.

I chose this one because it "tastes" bitter sweet to hear it and it somehow conveys a reminder that knowledge always carries responsibility...however much I may try to forget.

 

What's yours, and please say why.

"Delicate bodies that decay beneath their clothing play cards in an empty house in Paris, the wreckage of a hero lies broken in the corner and everyone pretends they love to live that way"

 

You are in my vision by Gary Numan.

 

I love that line because apart from being so bizarre, it says- or said lot about a certain type of young person that we tried to emulate in the late 70s when I was a teen.

I hope life treats you kind

And I hope you have

All you've dreamed of.

And I wish for you joy

And happiness.

But above all this, I wish you love.

 

I'm such a romantic realist :D

I quite like my signature which is from Reptilia by The Strokes.

 

I also like:

If I had myself a flying giraffe,

you'd have one in a box with a window

 

and this:

So meet me on the corner at eight

Let's get out of this place

We'll kiss the first of a million kisses

and let the past fall away

I'm so tired of being here

Suppressed by all my childish fears

And if you have to leave

I wish that you would just leave

Because your presence still lingers here

And it won't leave me alone

Says a lot for how I feel lately

Never knew how much I loved you

never knew how much I cared.

My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo

I'd like to sink her with my pink torpedo

 

I may have to watch Spinal Tap this evening :D

I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's,

And his hair was perfect.

 

"Werewolves of London" by the late great Warren Zevon

 

Why? Because it's one of those songs I simply MUST sing when it comes on the radio in the car. It's also one of my signature songs on karaoke nights.

She's talking in her sleep

It's keeping me awake

And anna begins to toss and turn

And every word is nonsense

But I understand

And I'm not ready for this kind of thing

 

and from the same song...

 

every time she sneezes I believe it's love
