jacksonbart Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Bowie - Panic in Detriot Here is one, should be quick "I can't believe the news today Oh, I can't close my eyes And make it go away How long... How long must we sing this song? How long? How long... 'cause tonight...we can be as one Tonight... Broken bottles under children's feet Bodies strewn across the dead end street But I won't heed the battle call It puts my back up Puts my back up against the wall" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olorin Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Yeah, that's "Sunday Bloody Sunday," U2. It wasn't very large There was just enough room to cram the drums in the corner over by the Dodge It was a '64 with a mashed up door and a cheesy little amp with a sign on the front that said "Fender Champ" and a second hand guitar It was a Stratocaster with a whammy bar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rplace Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 O, looks like you got it right first to me....and yours is one of my all time favs. Zappa - Joe's Garage.

rplace Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 This is a little bit more fun with some more lines of the song...how about this mid to late 70s AOR FM classic. You know that chick that used to dance a lot Every night she'd be on the floor shaking what she'd got Man when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot I mean she was steaming And that time over at Johnny's place Well this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face Man we just fell about the place If that chick don't want to know, forget her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacksonbart Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Ok if mowntnbkr is not going to post lyrics, I will. Should be another easy one. "It was an April mornin' when they told us we should go and as I turned to you, you smiled at me How could we say no Whoa, the fun to have, to live the dreams we always had Whoa, the songs to sing when we'd at last return again Swept New York a glancing kiss to those who claim they know Below the streets that steam and hiss, the devil's in his hold Whoa, to sail away to sandy lands and other days Whoa, to touch the dream, hides inside and is never seen, yeah Into the sun, the south, the north, at last the birds have flown The shackles of commitment fell in pieces on the ground Whoa, to ride the wind, to tread the air above the din Whoa, to laugh aloud with dancing eyes above the crowds, yeah Seek the man whose pointing hand the giant step unfolds Guide us from the curving path that turns our feet to stone And if one bell should ring in celebration for a king so fast the heart should beat As proud, the head with heavy feet, yeah Oooh" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Matthews Posted November 2, 2005 Author Share Posted November 2, 2005 "Achilles' Last Stand" off Led Zep's "Presence" album. Next: "There must be someone who can set them free: To take their sorrow from this odyssey To help the helpless and the refugee To protect what's left of humanity. Can't you see Can't you see Can't you see." Name that Tune! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olorin Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 No, Jeff is digging deeper into his ELP stash. Karn Evil Nine, First Impression from Brain Salad Surgery. Great album. Ten score years ago, defeat the kingly foe a wonderous dream came into being.
