## Adapted from Senocular’s Movie Quotes.
Song Lyrics!
Ok, heres the deal.
- Someone is ‘it’ in that they are the quoter. They post one lyric from a song (no instrumental plz :)) and everyone else has to guess what **song** the lyric is from.
- The person with the correct guess is the next quoter (it) and posts their lyric repeating the process.
- A new quoter is determined by the current quoter confirming that that persons response is correct.
- The current quoter can be over-ruled by 3 other people if they agree someone has posted the correct lyric and the original writer has not yet confirmed (you know, incase they went on vacation or in the middle of a bathroom break).
- Hints can be given at the quoter’s discreton.
- Granted, this IS the information age, so lets keep this fair and not be using google or other search engines to find the solutions. The honor system is in effect.
\*\*Since there a billion songs and no way for anyone to know a few lines from some of the music you may listen to, try to pick lyrics from songs that most would have heard casually over the years. Doesn’t have to be pop, doesn’t have to be limited to only the past few years, etc.
Also, feel free to provide any information that may help in locating the song\*\*
Cheers!

I guess I’ll start it off:
> Life is bigger
> It’s bigger than you
> And you are not me
> The lengths that I will go to
> The distance in your eyes
> Oh no I’ve said too much
> I set it up
This group originally had four key members - 3 now; started in Georgia.
…puts on a mask and dances to the spam-gods hoping that this thread will fly 🙂

Aha - no 🙂 That would have been too obvious of course. And when was the last time you heard a song called “U2/BeeGees?”

ya know I almost started a lyrics thread too but I thought it would be too hard 😉 I wouldnt recognize verses from my favorite songs if I saw them written out :!: (plus there are so many kinds of music, and if a certain group gets rolling, chances are you’ll only see lyrics from that genre) heh I doubt Ill be doing much here.
GL everyone!

Yeah - that’s what Nali told me as well; I guess it would be helpful to provide hints about the artist also 🙂

I was just thinking of making a new thread with music lyrics, but I didn’t know if it would get as popular as the movie thread.

Not in this current state because of the difficulty of this, but I think if we provide information such as the year the song came out and maybe a small blurb about the music group’s history, it will be more enjoyable.

Awesome! Let’s see…

The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can’t let you slide through my hands**
I’ll give clues if it gets tricky

You’ve waged a war of nerves
But you can’t crush the kingdom
can’t be what your idols are. Can’t leave the scar.
You cry for compensation. I ask you please just give us…

It is on 101 proof (live concerts)

One of the best bands.
