what song is that from

1) If your down and confused and you dont remember who your talking to

2) There are some things you cant cover up with lipstick and powder

3) I was sittin in by basement, I just rolled myself a taste or something green and gold and glorious to get me through the day

4) The salvation army band played and the chil-dren drank lemonade

5) Now here you go again you say you want your freedom

6) PLease allow me to introduce myself im a man of wealth and taste

7) Well my daddy left home when I was three and he didnt leave much to ma and me.

8) She wanted to test her husband. She knew exactly what to do:
A pseudonym to fool him. She couldn’t have made a worse move.

9) Beth I hear you callin, but I cant come home right now.

10) Who's in, now who's out, Hands up, now hands down,Back up, back up, Tell me what you gonna do now,Breathe in, now breathe out
Hands up, now hands down,Back up, back up, Tell me what you gonna do now

6) PLease allow me to introduce myself im a man of wealth and taste

Sympathy for the Devil, Rolling Stones

7) Well my daddy left home when I was three and he didnt leave much to ma and me.

Is that the Temptations' Papa was a Rolling Stone?

This one I know...
7) Johnny Cash - A Boy Named Sue

also, heard this only yesterday...
4)The Dream Academy - Life in a Northern Town

Still humming and thinking with a couple more...
Come-on fellas, help me...

I'm not sure of the title of number 5 but it's the one that goes "Thunder only happens when it's raining". I haven't got a clue about any of the rest as usual.

OK, jee-ZUS, its been less than 24 hrs since I was logged in, and I missed TWO of these things (good thing too, some of those were hard ). I better chime in quickly.

Latest set -- I'm going backwards because the first one is FAR AND AWAY the best song of the set.

10. Not sure if Fred wrote it, but Limp Bizkit did it -- Rolling.

9. Kiss, that sappy "Beth" song they did. The horror ... the horror ...

8. She of the unmistakeable voice -- Kate Bush. Not sure of the song title, think its Babushka?

7. Kudos to Mozzie. Didn't know this one me-self, so whew.

6. Done. And one of only 2 decent RS songs IMESHO. The most overrated band in history. Gee, can you tell I don't like the Stones?

5. You got it Dionysus. Fleetwood Mac - Dreams.

4. Mozzie got it, yep yep yep.

3. STUMPED AGAIN DAMMIT
(just yahoo'ed this ... DOH ... Fuck Me Freddy, should have known ... awesome choice SD)

2. Girls Talk, by the "other" Elvis.

1. YES! One of my favorites, especially any live version, and especially any live version that I saw in concert. Ladies and Gentlemen ... Mr. Stephen Stills. The song? His best solo song from his eponymous first solo album, Love the one you're with. Also done brilliantly on CSNY's Live Album 4 Way Street. Should have known that someone with "DarkStar" in their name would try to slip something in from either C, S, or N.

If you're down and confused
And you don't remember who you're talking to
Concentration slips away
Cause you're baby is so far away
Well there's a rose in the fisted glove
And eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't be with the one you love, honey,
Love the one you're with.

8) Kate Bush - Babooska
9) Kiss - Beth
10) LIMP Bizkit - Rollin'

to damn good, whos the other Elvis that dod Girls talk? Costello? I dont know that one.
would also have taken Peter Frampton for love the one your with he did an awsome version.
Also would have taken Peter Criss for Beth as it was a solo album though two other memebers played on it.

1) You know I love you, you know its true, I give you all my love babe, what more can I do.

2) The legend lives on from the chippewa on down to the big lake they call 'gitche gumee'

3) Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' you, I'm still alright to smile

4) I left alone, my mind was blank. I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind.

5) Standing at the limit of an endless ocean, stranded like a runaway, lost at sea.

6) A long tim ago when the earth was green, there was more kinds of animals than you've ever seen.

7) I don't care if it rains or freezes as long as I've got my Plastic Jesus Ridin' on the dashboard of my car

8) Heard it from who, heard it from a friend who, heard it from another you've been messing around.

9) 10 years livin in a paper bag, Feedback baby, he’s a flipped out cat

10) A breathless drive on a down town street, a motor bike ride in the mid-day heat

2) The legend lives on from the chippewa on down to the big lake they call 'gitche gumee' - Gordon Lightfoot - Wreck of the Edmind Fitzgerald

6) A long tim ago when the earth was green, there was more kinds of animals than you've ever seen. - The Rovers, The Unicorn Song

10 strikes and I'm out. Only after funslover got it did I even recognize Fitzgerald. Guess I must step up next round!

These are tough. You have made a good choice with these, SD.
Only these I could manage...

3). Patience - Guns -n- Roses

6). Funlover, you got it. SD this is so old.... I know the Unicorn song... (remember it from school choir)

7). Plastic Jesus - Billy Idol

Oh well.

Damn it!!! Saw this pop up, thought it was the answers...took a look at the lyrics again,and now #8 ring a bell...Shit ANOTHER song "clip" running through my head!!!

80's???Journey-don't think so...

What is under that hood of yours, Darkfather, could it be---



you take it on the run, baby???

Are you suggesting that Sir Darkstar is the Pope? Neat!

Anyway, I have my plastic Jesus right here, just in time for Easter.

Number 1 sounds a bit like "8 days a week" by the Beatles but I'm probably wrong.

SD -- Elvis Costello wrote Girls Talk, although the Dave Edmunds cover is more popular. I knew it from EC's Get Happy (Exp) CD. Actually forgot about the famous DE version.

Okay -- new set. You've got me stumped on #5 and #10, and I'm happy as a puppy with 2 peters that Funslover got that Unicorn song thing because that one had me as well and I've never even heard of the Rovers. So of the ones still left unanswered ...

#1 -- Gary Moore, Walking By Myself. RM does the Blues, even non-American stuff (okay, okay, a Belgian friend burned me some of his stuff, and wow, pretty good).

#4 -- Iron Maiden!! Holy shit dude, I haven't thought of that song in a looooong time. Number of the Beast. Surprised I remember it because I'm reasonably positive I never heard it sober or un-stoned.

#5 -- ???? Anyone? Anyone? Beuhler? Beuhler?

#8 -- Mole got the name of the song (take it on the run), so he gets honorable mention on this one. But Mole, get ready to smack yourself on the forehead: Journey, no. REO Speedwagon, yep.

#9 -- surprised no one got Sheryl Crow, since its one of the more recent of the set (albeit mid-90s). A change will do you good, you know.

#10 -- ????

Cheers SD -- good stuff.
