Nov. 19th, 2005 01:41 pmI love this one! So there will be a round two.
1. I don't believe in an interventionist god... - Nick Cave - Into My Arms. Ridiculously soppy but I adore it anyway.
2. You broke my heart 'cause I couldn't dance... - Brian Poole and the Tremoloes - Do You Love Me? I'm ashamed
mix_o_choc didn't get this seeing as he sang it at karaoke.
3. How can you see into my eyes like open doors... - Of course, that's Bring Me To Life by Evanescence.
4. Ladies and gentlemen. Wear sunscreen! - The tricky one! The Sunscreen Marketing Board Presents... by Three Dead Trolls In A Baggie. "Why chew gum when a small piece of cardboard soaked in sunscreen makes for long lasting taste satisfaction!"
5. Oh it's a happening thing, and it's happening to you... - This was kinda tough. It's Rain by Dragon.
6. I guess this time you're really leaving... - After much hemming and hawing Sarah figured this out. I'll Be There For You by Bon Jovi.
7. Lonely lovers cry, why me Lord I didn't mean to do it... - I would have been extremely impressed if anyone got this. It's a song called Dead Is Dead by a guy called Terry Lee Hale. It's off Sub-Pop 200. Kinda obscure...
8. Woke up in a cold sweat in the middle of the night... - Well I knew Sarah would get this one. Church Of Desire by Richie Sambora (he's the guitarist from Bon Jovi, his first solo album rocks).
9. Love, love is a verb... - Love is a doing word. Seems I misheard every other lyric in this song however. Teardrop by Massive Attack.
10. My baby's gone to jail... - Of course Jakie the DAAS fan would get this. Shit, the lyric is even the title. My Baby's Gone To Jail - Doug Anthony All Stars.
11. All packed up heading for unknown... - Now I actually had to Google for this lyric because I couldn't decipher it by listening. It's Good Times by Sprung Monkey. First full track on the Music For Our Mother Ocean compilation and a pretty funky punky song.
12. This generation rules the nation with version... - That old 80's classic. Pass The Dutchie by Musical Youth.
13. My love of life just gets stronger... - And the next lyric gives away the song. As The Days Go By - Daryl Braithwaite.
14. Everybody has a ghost... - C'mon people, another title in the lyric. This is Ghost by Live.
15. Stand beside me all the while no matter what goes wrong... - Mum must have downloaded this one but I had heard the song before. Apparently it's called True Love Never Runs Smooth and it's performed by Gene Pitney.
16. I'd like to believe that you love me... - I'd like to believe that you care. I'd like to believe you're the one I can trust. You're the one who will always be there... erm, yeah. Hunters & Collectors - Where Do You Go?
17. It's not hard to know what you're thinking... - Even I forgot what this song was for a bit, and I know the song well. Fade To Grey by Jars Of Clay.
18. I wanna run, I want to hide... - Can a band get any better than U2? Of course this is their big hit Where The Streets Have No Name.
19. Well you got me working so hard lately... - Nine Inch Nails - Ringfinger. One of my faves off the Pretty Hate Machine album.
20. Son she said, have I got a little story for you... - Grunge anthem Alive by Pearl Jam.
