Like a flower waiting to bloom Like a lightbulb in a dark room I'm just sitting here waiting for you To come on home and turn me on Like the desert waiting for the rain Like a school kid waiting for the spring Im just sitting here waiting for you To come on home and turn me on Turn Me On - Norah Jones

"On a morning from a Bogart movie In a country where they turn back time You go strolling through the crowd like Peter Lorre Contemplating a crime She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running Like a watercolor in the rain Don't bother asking for explanations She'll just tell you that she came In the year of the cat" AS

Hey you ! out there in the cold Getting lonely, getting old, can you feel me Hey you ! Standing in the aisles With itchy feet and fading smiles, can you feel me Hey you ! don't help them to bury the light Don't give in without a fight. Hey you ! out there on your own sitting naked by the phone would you touch me Hey you ! with your ear against the wall Waiting for someone to call out would you touch me Hey you ! would you help me to carry the stone Open your heart, I'm coming home Hey You - Pink Floyd

quote: ORIGINAL: LastThoughts I think everyone has instances in time where some random song clip would best describe the current moment. . . at least I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one. So I thought I'd create a forum post and see who else says, "Hey, that reminds of this song!" (Please: Keep the postings limited to just the most relevant aspect of the tune.) So, in relevance to this first posting I submit the following: He says, "Son, can you play me a memory I'm not really sure how it goes But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete. -Billy Joel / Piano Man _LT Actually that reminds me of another Billy Joel song, one that managed to get him soundly booed at his first concert off of Long Island. He opened for Black Oak Arkansas and sang an atrocity called the "John Wayne Blues" where he imitates JW. Totally awful, as was the rest of his set. I fucking hate his music!

Looking at your statement under hey you ... got me thinking of these lyrics... not quite sure why Shut your eyes and listen to the colours of your mind Easy answers Give yourself a breath of air, let your soul unwind Easy answers You don't have to say a word, you got dick to say 'Cause no-one ever said there's gonna be an easy way Easy answers Find them anywhere Easy answers Ain't nobody care Easy answers I don't wanna know Here's the audio from the day the music died (what a grim fucking day that was): Ratdog 9/9/95 Hapton Beach Casino http://youtu.be/61jpYTCmMsY

"I wanna take you on a kind of inebriational travelogue here... but Christ I got my lips around a bottle and my foot on the throttle and I'm standin' on the corner standin' on the corner like a 'just in town' jasper, on a street corner with a gasper lookin' for some kind of Cheshire billboard grin stroking a goateed chin, and using parking meters as walking sticks on the inebriated stroll with my eyelids propped open at half mast" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3-pTLDP0K4

Gathered at the cenotaph All agreed with hand on heart To sheath the sacrificial Knives. But now, She stands upon Southampton dock With her handkerchief And her summer frock, Clings To her wet body in the rain. In quiet desperation, knuckles White upon the slippery reins She bravely waves the boys Goodbye again. And still the dark stain spreads between Their shoulder blades. A mute reminder of the poppy fields and graves. And when the fight was over We spent what they had made. But in the bottom of our hearts We felt the final cut. "

This little conversation Well it's over very soon And I watch in admiration From my corner of the room. They shine on you with starry eyes... They rain a friendly storm. Like kids around a christmas tree And then you smile all nice and warm These little conversations If I tried my very best You know I never could say anything In twenty words or less. Somewhere, sometime, down the line Someday I may confess, And tell you all...thats all Little Conversations - Concrete Blonde

In your room Where time stands still Or moves at your will Will you let the morning come soon Or will you leave me lying here In your favorite darkness Your favorite half-light Your favorite consciousness Your favorite slave In your room Where souls disappear Only you exist here Will you lead me to your armchair Or leave me lying here Your favorite innocence Your favorite prize Your favorite smile Your favorite slave In Your Room - Depeche Mode

Not the lyrics so much, but rather the mood suggested by the music: ColdBlue Lifeless Deathless Illuminated bythe machines That hold you onthisside Which, for me, is terror.

What if everything around you Isn't quite as it seems? What if all the world you think you know Is an elaborate dream? And if you look at your reflection Is it all you want it to be? -NIN / Right where it belongs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAttxBfC8oI

"I can't do the talk, like the talk on TV And I can't do a love song, like the way it's meant to be. I can't do everything, but I'll do anything for you. I can't do anything, 'cept be in love with you! And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be. All I do is keep the beat... and bad company. Now all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme" DS

When the moment comes and the gathering stands and the clock turns back to reflect On the years of grace as those footsteps trace for the last time out of the act Well this way of life's recollection, the hallowed strip in the haze The fabled men and the noonday sun are much more than just yarns of their days. From the finest folk song ever written...
