Whats your favorite song quotes????

STATIC-X

"Down"

Never fear
Never fear to meet the resistance
Walk with me
Walk with me though don't mind the distance
To avoid all collected
Disinfect the affected
Just to feel this connection
Feel, feel
Walk by me
To avoid all collected
Disinfect the affected
Just to feel this connection
Driving it down
Tearing it down
Break it down
Drive it

"Down"

Ah...no matter how I feel about his screaming, I can't help but like the general sound...so soothing Perfect for a day of marriage counselling.

(Pssst Sailor-you freakin redneck! I wouldn't mind that song today if it was take this marriage and shove it! I aint stayin here no more! )

Hellmutt...you are right-I'd never heard of that band! I liked the lyrics but not the sound-guess I need something a little more contemporary sounding-not that I don't love the American Bob Dylan sound etc...but I dunno...maybe it's my mood. Love "If" though

Ok, so I have nothing to contribute today -admittedly I was coming here for inspiration-I'm such a "taker"

This one was too good to leave out.
From "Ars Moriendi" by Mr. Bungle:

All my bones are laughing
As youre dancing on my grave

Ok, why are these your favorite song quotes? I think people just started posting lyrics without thinking about it.

WHy are these your favorite? Why I love Lean On Me is because it is so meaningful, a boost to someone if they are down. If you have a problem come to me I'll lend a hand since I might need your help tomorrow, very inspirational.

Why would you assume that? The thread is for favorite song quotes-be it a line or entire lyrics I think people post them because they are funny lyrics, uplifting lyrics, angry lyrics, melancholy...which suits the mood or need of the poster or is just a long time favorite perhaps. It may have deep meaning, or it may not, but I don't think it is necessary to always post why or what we like about each song.

I think the songs we post most often speak for themselves-that is the beauty of music. They speak as to why the person may like it, or what they get from it, or are trying to express to another with it, etc. Thier happiness, love, anger, discontent, or understanding and empathy.

Songs tend to be self explanatory and often reveal something about the person behind it...be that the writer of the lyrics or the poster quoting it.

It is inspirational. It's a beautiful song, and considering what I am going through right now if I knew you better, if we were on some type of level of friendship, I would have easily assumed you posted that song, to give me that message....which would have meant alot to me, and said alot about you.

However, since I don't have that one-on-one familiarity with you, I could still gather you are someone who feels the way you do, have expressed here you do...just by the fact you quoted that song-no explanation necessary, see?

Plus though I don't know you, and it wasn't personally posted for me, I still enjoyed the uplifting and thoughtful lyrics anyway. Thats what music does and why it often needs no explanation. That is simply how music works and sharing lyrics brings that reality out.

Sometimes I may say I'm in a mood, or otherwise qualify why I like a particular song or part of one, etc...but...a song...the lyrics...in of themselves are the expression-what a song can express for you sometimes is the reason you like it...it says what you can't...it expresses what you feel etc...without having to explain it in your own words, see? It's the words you can't find sometimes, or a way to express the ones you feel in a creative or safe way.

So to me if I post lyrics-be an excerpt or the entire song-it is expressing why I like that song....ya know? But I don't think I post without reason. Sometimes someone reminds me of a certain band I haven't heard in awhile, and I may post-back to them a song by the band I also like, or in the same genre-this exchanging of songs isn't necessarily communicating personally through the lyrics, but it is still a form of communicating on a level of common interest.

But as for me, I don't post without thought or cause. I love music too much to take it for granted like that.

*edit* to add... DEVINS However in my explanation, please don't feel that I discourage you, or anyone to express exactly what they love about any song or lyrics-absolutely, reveal it, express it...it's all a part of enjoying music and communicating -I'm just saying why *I* don't always feel it's necessary for me to explain why I like certain lyrics, and saying that I do post lyrics that are favorite ones to me-mean something to me-etc.

"Pretty Vacant" by the Sex Pistols

There's no point in asking you'll get no reply
Oh just remember I don't decide
I got no reason it's too all much
You'll always find us out to lunch

Oh we're so pretty
Oh so pretty- we're vacant
Oh we're so pretty
Oh so pretty
A vacant

Don't ask us to attend 'cos we're not all there
Oh don't pretend 'cos I don't care
I don't believe illusions 'cos too much is real
So stop you're cheap comment 'cos we know what we feel

Oh we're so pretty
Oh so pretty- we're vacant
Oh we're so pretty
Oh so pretty- we're vacant
Ah but now and we don't care

There's no point in asking you'll get no reply
Oh just remember a don't decide
I got no reason it's too all much
You'll always find me out to lunch
We're out on lunch

Oh we're so pretty
Oh so pretty we're vacant
Oh we're so pretty
Oh so pretty we're vacant
Oh we're so pretty
Oh so pretty ah
But now and we don't care

We're pretty
A pretty vacant
We're pretty
A pretty vacant
We're pretty
A pretty vacant
We're pretty
A pretty vacant

And we don't care!!!


-------------------------------------------------
hehehe haven't listened to them in a long time...used to ave a copy of "sid sings" and it's worth a mint now...if I could find it I'd sell it on ebay! LOL I wonder if I can handle Johnny Lydon's voice these days though! HA! So freakin annoying but Damn that was some fun music for that period of my life.

Hehe... Gotta love them sex pistols. Good call there. I'm gonna have to go back to Widespread Panic again. It's not my fault I swear!!! They just have so many damn tunes and I love their lyrics. Just some laid back down to Earth tunes. The best version of this song I've heard so far is off their New Year's Vacation Shows (Live) [Dec 31st, 2003]. Wish I was there for this one... Damn!!!

Bust it Big

I like the way you move in your blue stilleto's
I like the way you feel on my jet black rug floor
Just one little kiss before I go, before I go
You're the one who taught me, everything I know

I like the way you feel when you're out of breath
I like the way you look shooting pool, shooting pool
When I am in Rome, I don't do like the Romans do
You're the one who taught me everything I know

Bust it big, write my ticket
Buy my shots and ride my liquor down......
To Mexico

(some strange lyrics I can't understand here... Someting about beware the man who builds monuments to himself...)

I like the way you feel when you're out of breath
I like the way you look ?from our mind?
When I am in Rome, I don't do like the Romans do
You're the one who taught me everything I know

Bust it big, write my ticket
Buy my shots and ride my liquor down
To Mexico
Bust it big, write my ticket
Gonna call my shots and ride my liquor down

She's my little salt lickin', agave guzzlin', worm
Eatin', lime suckin' girl, I love her so
She's my little salt lickin', agave guzzlin', worm
Eatin', lime suckin' girl, I love her so

Gonna bust it big, gonna write my ticket
Gonna bust it big, gonna write my ticket
Gonna bust it big, gonna write my ticket

hehehe nice lyrics Sailor-Damn-leave it to Sailor to come in with the freakin jam rock! *sigh*

... hehehe just kiddin ya, you know I love jam rock but...damn....how can I be all mean and angry when I listen to that #? It just mellows me right out...and then I get all...well, not angry enough anymore!

that was certainly a good call today...those lyrics...seems almost familiar to me for some reason-maybe it's just the concept ...women...alcohol...I dunno

I've actually been listening to jamrock incl WSP all day today as I am just apathetic and not angry today anyway-so I will back up yopur WSP with this one-it's like 15 minutes and the bass and everything in it is cool, and the feel and sound...yeah I do love WSP and I don't know I just love this song.

"Ride Me High"

Low-down way you're feeling, the funky things you do
hey, hey, hey, let me talk to you
I just wanna to whisper in your sexy ear
Tell you that I love you, walk away your fear
low-down, slow down, feel you go down, the funky things you do
hey, hey, hey, let me talk to you


Higher, higher, higher, how high can you go
Ride me high this morning, ride me high some more

Higher, higher, higher, how high can you go
Ride me high this morning, ride me high some more

He...ehhh...eey

The way you move your body, it's a crying shame
I won't tell nobody if you will do the same
One thing that's for certain, one thing that's for sure
The less you want, the more you've got, so don't you cry for more

Higher, higher, higher, how high can you go
Ride me high this morning, ride me high some more

Higher, higher, higher, how high can you go
Ride me high this morning, ride me high some more

He...ehhh...eey

Well...well...the way you move your body, it's a crying shame
I won't tell nobody if you will do the same
One thing that's for certain, one thing that's for sure
The less you want, the more you've got, so don't you cry for more

so go down on me baby get your knees down on the floor
yeah yeah yeah more more more

Higher, higher, higher, how high can you go
Ride me high this morning, ride me high some more

Higher, higher, higher, how high can you go
Ride me high this morning, ride me high some more

Higher, higher, higher, how high can you go
Ride me high this morning, ride me high some more

(alternate versions are good too...you know how it is with jam bands...)

Low-down way you're feeling, the sexy things you do
Baby, baby, baby, let me talk to you
I just love to whisper in your sexy ear
Tell you that I love you, take away your fear
Destroy your inhibitions, ridin' back the day
Low-down, slow down, keeping low down in that funky way

Forgot to tell ya I downloaded "thin line" finally and man...it was better than I'd expected. My exposure to rap has been...um..." limited" to say the least...and that mellow hip-hop sound...I just didn't expect it...and didn't realize I'd like it as much as I did...I liked the lyrics on papaer but had my doubts about the song...the sound...

but yeah surprisingly...thats a good song to me...I thought I had pretty wide and diversified tastes, but I really was missing out I guess just writing rap completely off

so thanks

Glad you liked it t2m, Feeling kind of dark this morning. So here is some "Kings of Leon." Talk about some messed up Preachers kids... WOW!!! I like it though. Kind of a new sound. Oh yeah... "Ride me High." Gotta love those sexy sexy sexy lyrics. It just seems to get them juices flowing...

Wasted Time

It's your life
Don't you let em tell you when to bat your eyes
You're the only one who's gonna sacrifice
Makes no difference if you're right or wrong
Take that ride
But I want your little sister by your side
Maybe little later we can all collide
Do our livin' like a rollin' stone
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted

[Chorus:]
Innocent smile
Runnin' free
Baby's gonna give it like it used to be

Show your face
Livin' in the shadows like you got no name
Enough to make a little girly go insane
Be my guest to let it out tonight
It's ok
I know all about the little games you play
Shakin' your apple right in my face
Only when you know that I'm beggin' fort a bite
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted

[Chorus] (2X)

So won't you show your face (show your face)
Your little apple shake (show your face)
I know the love you gave (show your face)
I know the love you take (show your face)

[Chorus]

Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time
Time on me is wasted time

One more from Kings of Leon.

Holy Roller Novocaine

My darling you look lovely
I've come to lay you down
Uncover your head and submit to me
We'll make a joyful sound
I don't care if you're by yourself
Or you're all alone when you need my help
Keep that smile on your pretty face
Cause you don't have much I can't take away

[Chorus:]
Don't you worry baby
You won't feel a thing
Close your eyes
Holy Roller Novocaine

Lord's gonna get us back (x4)
I know, I know
Lord's gonna get us back (x4)
I know, I know

You'll be hearin' me comin'
But I can't come inside
I'll be out back in my white Cadillac
Won't you join me for a ride
Let me take you up to the mountain top
There I'll show all the goods I got
Don't look back keep your eyes ahead
This could be the night that the moon goes red

[Chorus]

All the world is moanin'
And baby so am I
I'm just givin' you warning
And I'm telling you why

Lord's gonna get us back (x4)
I know, I know
Lord's gonna get us back (x4)
I know, I know
Lord's gonna get us back (x4)
I know, I know
Lord's gonna get us back (x4)
