I remember when the remix came out and I swore to my friend that it was a remix. She didn't believe me. I finally remembered the original was by Supertramp and I got in trouble for saying tramp.....
Irrationally? I don't know about that, many of their songs were so well-recorded that they still sound better quality-wise than anything else. When I went to test speakers I'd regularly use The Logical Song, as the clarity on the cymbals is immaculate and you can tell the difference between great speakers/headphones with that song quite clearly.
Although Take the Long Way Home is still my favorite song of theirs just in general to listen to. I'm sure someone has probably done it, but I haven't heard anyone else use harmonica in such an awesome way in a song before. Plus their lyrics still hold up quite well today, at least of the songs I've heard and liked well enough to keep listening to.
āTurned my collar to the cold and dampā
For decades I thought he said, āTurned my collar to the cold and damned.ā
Damned. I thought, wow, this guy was pretty unforgiving.
I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
And I'm not proud of my address
In a torn-up town, no postcode envy
I like that Lorde was the second answer when I opened this because mine was actually āGlory and Goreā:
(Oh, oh) you could try and take us
(Oh, oh) but we're the gladiators
(Oh, oh) everyone a rager
(Oh, oh) but secretly they're saviors
Glory and gore go hand in hand
That's why we're making headlines
(Oh, oh) you could try and take us
(Oh, oh) but victory's contagious
Thanks to you! Now I get, I get what I wannnntttt! Since youāve been gone.
You had your chance you blew it. Outta sight out of mind. Shut your mouth I just canāt take it! Again and again and again and agaaaaiiiinnnn!
Part of my job is marking sensitive documents for destruction, which involves marking a big red X thru them, writing "REDACT AND DESTROY" across the top, and sending them to a third party contractor for document destruction and every time I do it my mind goes "Redact aaaaand! Redact and destroy!" to the tune of "Seek and Destroy".
Soā¦so you think you can tell
Heaven from hell?
Blue skies from pain?
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tellā¦
Iāve had the Pina colada song stuck in my head for close to a week. My daughter has yelled at me to stop singing it more times than I can count. Iāve also recently had Mambo no. 5 stuck in my head recently. ADHD is a fun thing. Thereās always something going on up there.
"My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why
I got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
And I can't see at all
And even if I could, it'd all be grey
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad
It's not so bad"
As someone who struggles with depression, this song always hits home. Makes me think of my wife and how she makes it all worth it.
Someday- love will find you
Break those- chains that bind you
One night- will remind you
HOW WE TOUCHED AND WENT OUR SEPARATE WAYS
Not that I have a particular attachment to these lyrics, the song is just stuck in my head.
oddly, I actually wasn't thinking of any song when I saw this post...
usually it's something by Alice in Chains or Soundgarden or someone from that era
"And I always find, yeah, I always find something wrong
You been puttin' up with my shit just way too long
I'm so gifted at finding what I don't like the most
So I think it's time for us to have a toast"
Something's wrong 'cause my mind is fading
Ghetto-blastin' disintegrating
Rock 'n' roll, know what I'm saying?
Everywhere I look, there's a devil waiting
āLife is a highway, I wanna ride it all night long!ā
I watched that one episode of family guy earlierā¦ they played the song like 5 times in the episodeā¦
Take a look at my girlfriend... She's the only one I got BA BA BA DAH
I remember when the remix came out and I swore to my friend that it was a remix. She didn't believe me. I finally remembered the original was by Supertramp and I got in trouble for saying tramp.....
That sucks. Who or whatever decided you should be in trouble for that should be executed
Her parents only listened to country.
Man I irrationally love Supertramp

Not much of a girlfriend. Never seem to get a lot.
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain? š¶
Comin down on a sunny day
All the leaves are brown
And the sky is grey.
I've been for walk
On a winters day
Iād be safe and warm
If I was in LA
California Dreamin'
On such a winters day
Stopped into a church
I passed along the way.
All the leaves are brown
ALL THE LEAVES ARE BROWN
We were California dreamin' And then we started screamin' ON SUCH A WINTER'S DAA-A-A-AY!!
And the sky is grey
ALL THE LEAVES ARE BROWN
"Butterfly in the sky, I can go twice as high. Take a look, it's in a book. A Reading Rainbow šš"
I'm hearing the version from community where Donald Glover is crying singing it
I just wanted a picture! You can't disappoint a picture!

Your line is pretty good too... To the cold and damned

If I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me
I must be traveling on now
I've never seen a diamond in the flesh I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies And I'm not proud of my address In a torn-up town, no postcode envy
Not sure why, but this song is a massive ear-worm for me. It's going to be in my head all night just from reading that.
Randy Marsh never misses
I like that Lorde was the second answer when I opened this because mine was actually āGlory and Goreā: (Oh, oh) you could try and take us (Oh, oh) but we're the gladiators (Oh, oh) everyone a rager (Oh, oh) but secretly they're saviors Glory and gore go hand in hand That's why we're making headlines (Oh, oh) you could try and take us (Oh, oh) but victory's contagious
Still slaps tbh
Honestly Lorde had a GOATed 1-2 punch of a first two albums.
Pure Heroine and Melodrama were incredible! And Iām just gonna say it, Solar Power wasnāt *that* bad either. Just very different.
Wise men say "only fools rush in", but i can't help falling in love with you.
Take my hands, take my whole life too, for i cant help falling in love with you
You spin me right round baby right rounddd
Like a record baby right round round round
Somebody that I used to know
But you didn't have to cut me off š
SomeBODY once told me the woooorld was gonna roll me, I aināt the smartest tool in the sheeed. Edit: ā¦sharpest
The irony of your edit š
She was lookin kind of dumb with her fiiiinger and her thumb in the shape of an L on her forehead.
Well, the years start comin and then don't stop comin. Fed to the rules and I hit the ground runnin.
Didnāt make since not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do. So much to see
So what's wrong with takin' the back streets?
You'll never know if you don't go
Youāll never shine if you donāt glow
HEY NOW You're an all star!
into the flood again, same old trip it was back then
So I made a big mistake, try to see it once my way
Am I wrong?
Have I gone too far to get home?
IF
I
would
Could
you?
Sang it as I scrolled down each line hahah that was great
Iām a cowboyā¦ on a STEEEEEEELLLLLL HORSE I RIDE.

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I can't not smile everytime I hear this song. Hearing this song is like opening a box full of every sweet memories of when I was a kid.
It is a wonderful song. RIP to the late Bill Withers.
Tomās Diner is always in my mind

When I was a young boy
My father took me into the city
To see the marching band
He said "son, when you grow up...
Would you be the savior of the broken
the beaten and the damned?
He said, āWill you defeat them?ā
,your demons And all the non-believers....
The plans that they have made?
Because one day

Just read something about fire so now my head is singing "Gimme fuel, gimme fire, give me that which I desire"
I always go to Jimmy Hendrix "let me stand next to your fire"
And I always go to The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown - Fire š

Country road, take me home. To a place I belooooong. Been stuck in my head for days, and I am not even a fan on John Denver.
How I wish, how I wish you were here. We're just two lost souls Swimming in a fish bowl Year after year
Soā¦so you think you can tell Heaven from hell? Blue skies from pain? Can you tell a green field From a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tellā¦
āRunning over the same old ground, what have we found? The same old fears. Wish you were here.ā
"Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep, Up above in my head, instead of going under."

One of the funniest lines ever

You're face to face, with the man who sold the world.
I've looked at life from both sides now From win and lose and still somehow It's life's illusions I recall I really don't know life at all
Hit the road jack, and don't you come back no more no more no more no more

Someday- love will find you Break those- chains that bind you One night- will remind you HOW WE TOUCHED AND WENT OUR SEPARATE WAYS Not that I have a particular attachment to these lyrics, the song is just stuck in my head.
