Full lyrics again with the name of the song changed to <NAME_OF_SONG>

Did I tell you how much I miss

Your sweet kiss?

Did I tell you I didnt cry?

Well I lied

I lie lie lied

Over real over

When I nearly hit the face I loved

So tired of packaging the anger

Always pushing you away


Did I tell you youre wonderful?

I miss you yes I do

Did I tell you that I was wrong?

I was wrong

Cos youre wonderful yeah


Did I tell you how much I miss

Your smile?

Did I tell you I was okay?

Well no way

No way way way


Youre <NAME_OF_SONG> yeah yeah


Now now now each and every day

I realize the price I have to pay

You youre <NAME_OF_SONG>

So high I cant get over it

So deep I cant get under it

Hints:

Artist was born November 3, 1954 in Maryleborne, London, England.

He also had appearance on American television shows such as an episode

of "The Equalizer", "Sledgehammer", "Amazing Stories" and "Tales from

the Crypt". He also began taking roles in films such as 'Nomads',

'Slamdance', 'Trust Me', and 'Cold Steel'.

Made appearances on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno and The Late Show with David Letterman.

He was once beaten up by Sid Vicious after telling his girlfriend Nancy

Spungeon that 'If Sid liked, he would teach HIM how to play the bass.'

Nancy told Sid that he had been spreading rumours that Sid was an

incompetent bass player. This angered Sid greatly so he stormed into

his room while he was sleeping and beat him up.

He has acted in 16 movie roles and several television shows including 'The Equalizer' and 'Northern Exposure'.

He once dated Jamie Lee Curtis, Vanity, Amanda Donahoe, and Heather Graham.

Your turn.... Challenge us DbFlash!!!!

Greg,

Isn't the picture of Atom Ant?

Have no idea what the song is.

The only song I kinda know goes something like:

You don't drink, you don't something else, what do you do.

Ok,

After listening to some jazz this morning while I was reading the paper and doing my first Sudoku of the day, I put this CD on while i was getting ready to go to work:

I told her I had always lived alone

And I probably always would

And all I wanted was my freedom

And she told me that she understood

Hey Jeff---

Your thread inspired this one,, but its different---

This one is a test of your memory of classic rock played on the radio at some time. To me, this ones more fun!

It has become more a test of your memory, and less a test of your record collection. I started this one when yours was about page 22, and I saw so many of the lyrics up for guessing were songs I had never heard -- nor artists I had ever listened to--

--so this one was born. And you only need to guess artist OR song to make the next challenge-- no time limits. And you police yourself--

And, both of these threads share many of the same players anyway-

--aren't you at 39 pages yet? thats amazing!!

Why don't you bag yours and start playing this one? LOL

Okay, I bagged it... NOT.

I didn't notice the 2 distinctions (artist OR song) and (radio play). Like the radio play, but the artist OR song?

BTW, Texas Ron's avatar looks like the album cover for Genesis' "Foxtrot." [:P]

Hey Buddy Welcome back.

Glad you made it back home with no problems.

Tomorrow I will get back to my original song, but for today I'd kinda like to take a day off because in away for me today the music died.

Imagine there's no heaven

It's easy if you try

No hell below us

Above us only sky

Imagine all the people

Living for today...

Imagine there's no countries

It isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no religion too

Imagine all the people

Living life in peace...

You may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions

I wonder if you can

No need for greed or hunger

A brotherhood of man

Imagine all the people

Sharing all the world...

You may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will be as one

Hey, here is the story

Forget about your troubles in life

Don't you know it's not easy

When you've gotta walk upon that line

Don't you get sad and lonely

You need a change from what you do all day

Ain't no sense in all your crying

Just pick it up and throw it into shape

Hey you won't you listen

This is not the end of it all

Don't you see there is a rhythm

I'll take you where you really need to be

Huge song-- singer died

INXS

Next:

"But the sun is shining down on me

And it's here to stay

That's why I'm telling you "

EDIT: Okay, here's a hint. The part that says "And it's here to stay" should be sung like "And it's here to stay... yay... yay...yay..."

2nd EDIT: I am surprised at you all! "Put my faith in the people, and the people let me down." [;)]

I had no idea this one would have been hard. Sorry. It was "I Just want to Celebrate."

Try this:

"We come from the land of the ice and snow,

from the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.

The hammer of the gods

Will drive our ships to new lands,

To fight the horde, singing and crying:

Valhalla, I am coming!"
