Guess the song!

[Algonquin]

You know who it is from that? Interesting. Curious if you are correct.ude:

Well... I misread your hint. I thought you said 'it's in one of your posts'

The song sounds familiar though, and I believe you've mentioned on a couple of occasions that you are a fan of the band I'm thinking of.

For the life of me, I can't name the song.

No partial credit.

[Algonquin]

Bump...

You know what, I'm going again...
This one shouldn't be all that difficult either, but I've thought that before. Somebody restore my faith and get this right in the next 48.

Here goes...
------------------

I will stop,
I will stop at nothing
Say the right things,
Win electioneering
I trust I can rely on your votes

When I go forwards, you go backwards
And somewhere we will meet

Riot shields,
Voodoo economics
It's just business,
Cattle prods and the IMF
I trust I can rely on your votes

When I go forwards, you go backwards
And somewhere we will meet
----------

Anyone?

[Born2Run]

Let me give you guys a hint, if it's one of my posts, it'll never be Skynyrd.

Good, because I side with Neil in the Neil Young vs. Skynyrd fued.

[R_of_G]

Ok, well there goes another one. This one was "Electioneering" from Radiohead's "OK Computer" album. Should be a no-brainer for guitar fans.

Wanna hear it? Here it go...



Somebody else feel free to jump in with a song. I'm not the Patriots, and I don't need to run up the score.

[ted s]

This might be tough for Born2run.

Bye, bye, its been a sweet love.
Though this feeling I can't change.
But please don't take it badly,
'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame.
But, if I stayed here with you girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you'll never change.
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I can't change.
Lord help me, I can't change.

[Algonquin]

Too funny! :

'And that's all I have to say about that'

[Born2Run]

Some southern band.

[pes_laul]

just thought I might jump in

I'll be impressed if you know this one

Sometimes when this place gets kind of empty,
Sound of their breath fades with the light.
I think about the loveless fascination,
Under the Milky Way tonight.

Lower the curtain down in Memphis,
Lower the curtain down all right.
I got no time for private consultation,
Under the Milky Way tonight.

Wish I knew what you were looking for.
Might have known what you would find.
Wish I knew what you were looking for.
Might have known what you would find.

And it's something quite peculiar,
Something that's shimmering and white.
Leads you here despite your destination,
Under the Milky Way tonight
(Chorus)
Under the Milky Way tonight.

I remember that one. My old roommates used to play this one with their band when I lived in NJ. It's called "Under the Milky Way" is it not? The band is "The Church."

Good one Kris.

[sunvalleylaw]

I haven't thought about "The Church" in a long time. Nice one.

correct.: I'm surprised you knew that one no one I know even knows who the church

[R_of_G]

correct.: I'm surprised you knew that one no one I know even knows who the church

My old roommate, the one whose band used to cover that song, listened to them like they were going out of style. I probably haven't thought of that song since about 1992. so thanks for the reminder!

Ok, so looks like I have the puck again... I know we have seen that there is a disparity between what I think should be easy and what actually winds up that way, but this one, well, I will be quite disappointed if nobody gets this one. Just a note, the lyrics to this one changed several times as the song was performed over the first few years it was performed, but these are essentially the lyrics from a version everyone SHOULD be familiar with.

--------------------------
I can't understand
She let go of my hand
And left me here facing the wall
Sure like to know
Where she did go
But I can't get close to her at all

While we kissed through the wild blazing nighttime
She said she would never forget
But morning is here
It's like I ain't here
She acts like we never have met

If I didn't have to guess
I'd gladly confess
To anything I might have tried
But I was with her too long
I've done something wrong
I wish she'd tell me what is I'd run and hide

Though her skirt it swayed, as the guitar played
Her mouth was watery and wet
I wish she'd unlock
Her voice once and talk
Instead of acting like we never have met

I'm leavin' today
I'll be on my way
On this I can't say very much
Well if you want me to
I can be just like you
And pretend that we never have touched

And if anybody asks me,
Is it easy to forget?
I'll say it's easily done
Just pick anyone
And pretend that you never have met
-------------

Anyone?

[pes_laul]

If I'm thinking right that's a bob dylan song I can't really remember the name though. Aint it don't believe you?

[R_of_G]

Way to go Kris!:

The name is "I Don't Believe You [She Acts Like We Never Met]" and the version Dylan performed with The Band for The Last Waltz is a great live version of this song.

You're up Kris...

[pes_laul]

umm let's see ah here we are

Too dangerous to keep.
Too feeble to let go.
And you want to bite the hand.
Should have stopped this long ago.
Go now, you've been set free.
Another month or so you'll be poisoning me
With your lovely smile.
I see you slither away with your skin and your tail,
Your flickering tongue and your rattling scales
Like a real reptile.
Had you coiled around my arm.
How could you ever know
How I loved your diamond eyes?
But that was long ago. (Chorus)
And I should have believed Eve.
She said we had to blow.
She was the apple of my eye.
It wasn't long ago. (Chorus)

[.overdrive_rewind]

Oooh, obscure.

"Reptile" by the Church.

[pes_laul]

Correct: I gotta quit doing church songs. your up OD jake

[.overdrive_rewind]

Slow down this is slippin' trough my mind,
This conversation has run out of time.
Honey I know you know what I mean,
And that's the one thing that you soon will find.
I know that you really wanna go,
My mind is runnin' outta gas just relax,
And recap, and relapse.
Tonight, my bodies jumpin' and I,
Go through the motions and I'm leaving on this journey,
Maybe someday I'll come running home to you.

I don't wanna see the day, my words cannot make it safe.
(Come running home! Come running home!)
Her heart in my hands, it's too bad, no regrets...
I don't wanna see the day, her tears are falling on my grave.
(Come running home! Come running home!)
This is my one chance, to take back, no regrets...

Let's go! I just wanna let you know,
This situation leaves me outta breath.
We'll drive till the love that's in your eyes,
Drops to the ground and unravels like a thread...
I know that you really wanna go,
I only think about her, must get to her, cannot loser her.
You know that I will not let this die,
Life support systems and my mind on
Rewind and rewind and rewind...
