Guess The Song Game - Page 3

Pink Floyd's Meddle? More specifically, Echoes?

***azalea*** · 07-25-2002, 08:14 PM

Very good! I thought for sure I'd have to give a hint, since that one's pretty obscure! Your go.

BeardofPants · 07-25-2002, 10:13 PM

I just downloaded the Meddle album recently (great album!

), and I had to give it a quick listen before I could narrow it down to Echoes.

(Hence the edit)

"Just get me to the airport
And put me on a plane"

(Lizra, you should recognise this!

)

***azalea*** · 07-25-2002, 10:21 PM

Ooh, ooh (Horseshack)! Another of my favorite songs! No Expectations, The Rolling Stones!

How about an easy one?

"The killer awoke before dawn. He put his boots on and he walked on down the hall"

BeardofPants · 07-25-2002, 10:35 PM

Sorry, Azalea, wrong song, wrong group!

And yours is The End by the Doors.

Later edit: I checked out those lyrics btw, and they're *very* close, but there's a subtle word difference b/n the stones song, and the one I'm after. Didn't mean for it to be a trick question!

***azalea*** · 07-25-2002, 10:40 PM

WHAT!? Oh, well, sorry for jumping the gun on that one. Hmm, not Leaving on a Jet Plane by Peter Paul and Mary? Don't have any other guesses.

Edit in answer to your edit: Yes, now that I think about it, I remember that it's something like " Take me to the airport and put me on a plane."

BeardofPants · 07-25-2002, 10:45 PM

Nope, not Peter, Paul & Mary. You were closer with the Stones in terms of style.

Lizra · 07-26-2002, 12:09 AM

Right off the top of my head I'd have to say...."I Wanna Be Sedated" Ramones

BeardofPants · 07-26-2002, 12:14 AM

Bingo!

Lizra · 07-26-2002, 12:36 AM

OK

Jersey Devil might know this one....

I had skin like leather and the diamond hard look of a cobra,
I was born blue and weathered but I burst just like a super nova.

Here's lyric "B" if nobody knows the above!

I have watched you on the shore,
Standing by the ocean roar,

Erawyn · 07-28-2002, 02:01 PM

surfer girl?

Lizra · 07-28-2002, 02:18 PM

Yes!

love those Beach Boys.......The first one was (It's hard to be a ) "Saint in the City", from Bruce Springsteens "Greetings From Asbury Park" debut LP.

Pick a winner!

Erawyn · 07-28-2002, 06:25 PM

this is one of my fave songs!!!

It's a longshot,
She's got a troop and a tongue for a slingshot,
But she's takin' steady aim
At the bigshots

Hey, since you've gotten no response, let's just assume you're correct, and post another quote.

BeardofPants · 07-30-2002, 09:50 PM

Hmm. Okay:

"Come gather round people wherever you roam
And admit that the waters around you have grown
And accept it that soon you’ll be drenched to the bone..."

***azalea*** · 07-30-2002, 09:57 PM

The Times They Are A-Changin'; Bob Dylan.

BeardofPants · 07-30-2002, 09:59 PM

Yup. (Are we the only ones playing?!

)

***azalea*** · 07-30-2002, 10:04 PM

Apparently so

! so this one's just for you!

Harmlessly passing your time in the grassland away;
Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air.

Lizra · 07-31-2002, 12:01 AM

I'm playing too, but I don't know that! Bop???
