Musical monday #41
Every week Elie and I switch off
You know the drill. All songs have something in common. What is it? No googling etc.
1) Oh, won't you come with me and walk this land
2) That's really, really where I'm going to
3) ...but these tears I cant hold inside.
(This is for a specific version of this song.)
4) I want you so bad babe
(I hope this is specific enough.)
5) I saw you dancin' in the gym.
6) The purple piper plays his tune,
7) She sends a cable comin' in from above
8) And the morals that they worship will be gone
9) I have accountants pay for it all
10) with fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
11) ... woke up this morning with a wine glass in my hand.
(I don't know what it is but I hate this artist. But the song fits)
12) Talk and song from tongues of lilting grace
13) But please don't take it badly,
14) And we both know hearts can change
15) I never meant 2 cause u any pain
16) Mr. Mojo Risin
17) a glass of wine in her hand
18) you know sometimes words have two meanings.
19) Engineer boots, leather jackets
20) Maybe get a blister on your little finger
21) 'Cause quittin' just ain't my schtick
22) By making his world a little colder
23) I'm comin' to liberate you, confiscate you,
24) Like a dog without a bone
25) we got a real pressure cooker going here
UPDATE: There were 3 or 4 songs I had in mind that I'd forgotten, so let's round this out to 30.
26) It took a while, but she looked in the mirror,
27) The night is coming and the starling flew for days
28) You've been running and hiding much too long.
29) On a silver black phantom bike
30) We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
Solutions to 39 and other stuff hopefully tonight!

I'm all but certain that #12 is a Led Zeppelin song but I can't place which one.
Posted by: Clayton at April 7, 2008 11:26 PMI think 24 is The End, by the Doors?
Posted by: SS at April 8, 2008 4:17 AM24 is the Doors, but the song is "Riders on the Storm"
