Song meme answers
May. 5th, 2004 02:03 amI should post some answers, shouldn't I? Unfortunately, I've forgotten two. *duck* Anybody have any suggestions for:
10. You've seen it all, you've seen it all before.
19. It'll all wash down, it'll wash down when it rains.
?
1. It's colder in this house than anywhere in Boston. The Posies, Christmas.
2. Nights are long, oh so long, on the prairie. Les Paul and Bing Crosby, Gotta Get Me Somebody to Love.
3. I came home on a Monday night, as drunk as drunk can be. Tom Smith, Seven Drunken Nights in Space.
4. Is it worth it? A new winter coat and shoes for the wife? Robert Wyatt, Shipbuilding (actually from the Elvis Costello cover album: Bespoke Songs, Lost Dogs, Detours and Rendezvous.)
5. Our love is like water, pinned down and abused for being strange. Live, I Alone (Throwing Copper)
6. Everyone agreed that she looked delightful / except for her sister who was hateful and spiteful. Elvis Costello, Imperial Bedroom (bonus track on the album of the same name)
7. Hush my little one, don't cry so. Elvis Costello, Last Boat Leaving (from Spike).
8. La la la, I'm the maker, I'm the maker, I'm the maker, oh yeah. Dick Kent, Maker of Smooth Music (from the American Song-Poem Anthology. "Em-you-ess-I-see!")
9. Where did your long hair go? The Beach Boys, Caroline No (from Pet Sounds). I bet many of you know that song...and if you don't, you should. One of the five best albums.
11. Got a surprise from my honey! Got a message from my girl! Devo, The Day My Baby Gave Me a Surprise.
12. The western lands, day turns to night, / the immaterial play of light. David Byrne, Astronaut (from Grown Backwards).
13. People point us out and shake their heads in shame. Patsy Cline, Hidin' Out.
14. Washed my cotton socks, I'm in the news. The Teardrop Explodes, Reward (from Kilimanjaro)
15. Gypsy gal, the hands of Harlem / cannot hold you to its heat. Bob Dylan, Spanish Harlem Incident. (Damn, that man can write.)
16. Up those stone steps I climb, / hail this joyful day's return. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Brompton Oratory (from The Boatman's Call).
17. Where is Mona? She's long gone. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Fifteen Feet of Pure White Snow (from No More Shall We Part).
18. Aren't you the wise one? Isn't that what you claim to be? Love Lies Dreaming, Half-Way Home. (This is the local group fronted by my ex-dentist; they're quite good.)
20. Hello my friend; it seems your eyes are troubled. / Care to share your time with me? The Dave Matthews Band, The Best of What's Around (from Under the Table and Dreaming).
10. You've seen it all, you've seen it all before.
19. It'll all wash down, it'll wash down when it rains.
