Okay, y'all know the drill. Ten random sets of lyrics, guess the most right and you get the adulation and admiration of your peers!



1.
In a coffee shop in a city
Which is every coffee shop in every city
On a day which is every day
I picked up a magazine

2.
What you'd forget?
Got a light?
I know you you're
You're shivering

3.
Your coat and hat are gone
I really can't look at your little empty shelf
A ragged teddy bear
It feels like we never had a chance

4.
Don't fear,
Even though you're at a loss.
I'm numb,
A shell of empty thoughts.

5.
Here is the money I owe you
Yes, you can pay the bills
I will give you more
When I get paid again

6.
It's four in the morning the end of December
I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
New York is cold, but I like where I'm living
There's music on Clinton Street all though the evening


7.
Albert's always sincere
He's a senstive type
His intentions are clear
He wanna be well-liked

8.
Have you ever be close to tragedy?
Or been close to folks who have?
Have you ever felt the pain so powerful, so heavy you collasped?
No? Well...

9.
There's no time for us
There's no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams
Yet slips away from us

10.
I wish I had an angel for one moment of love
I wish I had your angel tonight



Good luck!

9 is who wants to live forever, and 1 looks like a translation of "Rain" from Marmalade Boy.

You got 9 right, but 1 is "Little Plastic Castle" by Ani DiFranco. Strangely enough, no anime songs turned up on this list. ^_;

2 is either "Light My Candle" or "Finale" from RENT. (The lyrics recur.) 8 is "The Impression That I Get" from the Mighty Mighty Bosstones album "Let's Face It." And... that's all I've got, but I'm surprised that someone else has that Bosstones album.

*nods* 2 is "Light My Candle" (I don't think the line "What you'd forget?" repeats) and 8 is on my playlist as "Knock on Wood". But I don't have the Bosstones album, it's just a song I used to hear on KLSU and downloaded. *g* Thanks for playing!

2 is RENT (light my candle), 5 is Everclear, and 3 i recognize the last line of but couldn't tell you who or what song.

[ekaterinn.livejournal.com]

You got 2 right, 5 is "I Will Buy You A New Life" by Everclear and 3 is "Something in the Air" by David Bowie, off the American Pyscho album. *g*

[fanelia-angel.livejournal.com]

10. Wish I Had An Angel ~ Nightwish

*blinks* the crows make a reference to the esteemed Phillip Glass? I knew there was a reason to like them... ^^;;

[bejiin.livejournal.com]

incidentally #1 is plastic castle (i think that's the name of it or is that the name of the album its from? ^^;; ) and it's by one of the chick rockers.. heh is it Tori Amos? (can't say since my ipod screen is dead ... grr, but it's an excellent song) It even played on the radio for a while... or was that just KLSU? ^^;

[bejiin.livejournal.com]

after research i see that it is both the name of the song and the album... mind you i left out the little part. Also not Amos, but DiFranco... the other chick who features on my ipod heavily... ok there are several of those, for i cannot live without my Ella...

[ekaterinn.livejournal.com]

*laughs* You know me, you know my covers! Though I have #3 as "Something In The Air" by Bowie, off the American Pyscho soundtrack. ^_;

2. RENT - Light my Candle
6. Leonard Cohen - Blue Raincoat

But that's all I can do. :)

[ekaterinn.livejournal.com]

But you got those right! Better than I normally do on this meme. *g* I'll post the whole list tomorrow.

You know I don't have a chance with this sort of thing. The list I'd do well with would be more like:

1. Sleeping quietly as can be.
Along comes the chief and what do you think?

2. Boom chacka lacka lacka
Boom chacka lacka lacka

3. He likes to dance and flirt.
He likes to dance and flirt.
There's just one thing to understand,
There's just one thing to understand,
Don't wear him as a shirt.
Don't wear him as a shirt.

4. Wrinkle up your little nose,
Drop a nut between your toes,

You get the idea. I have the same sort of problem with top ten lists.
