Bilbobilbo - here's one for you then !!
Words are flying out like endless rain into a paper cup
They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe....

They are my boys!
Have you heard aperfectcircle?
It's the same singer (Maynard James Keenan) but with a different backing band. They are slightly more poppy but just as valid!

(PS - I have dropped you a hello in your personal space !)

Tell me that you've got everything you want and yor bird can sing,

Woah!
Enough Beatles already!
But seeing as I'm here...

Sorry but the Beatles are Gods.
When I wake up early in the morning,
Lift my head, I'm still yawning.

I don't want to spoil the party so I'll go,
I would hate my disapointment to show.
But I'll be back in about an hour.

You know, if you break my heart I'll go, but I'll be back again,
Cos I told you once before goodbye but I came back again.
Here's Jonny!!!! I'm back.

Seriously tho dude.
What is it from?
Me and my buddies used to sing at uni when we were on the pop but we never knew what it was or who originally sang it!!! It's been driving me crazy for about 5 years now!

I found her on a night of fire and noise
Wild bells rang in a wild sky
I knew from that moment on
I'll love her till the day that I died
And I kissed away a thousand tears
My lady of the Various Sorrows
Some begged, some borowed, some stolen
Some kept safe for tomorrow
On and endless night, silver star spangled
The bells from the chapel went jingle-jangle
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Like I love you?
She was given to me to put things right
And I stacked all my accomplishments beside her
Still I seemed so obselete and small
I found God and all His devils inside her
In my bed she cast the blizzard out
A mock sun blazed upon her head
So completely filled with light she was
Her shadow fanged and hairy and mad
Our love-lines grew hopelessly tangled
And the bells from the chapel went jingle-jangle
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Like I love you?
She had a heartful of love and devotion
She had a mindful of tyranny and terror
Well, I try, I do, I really try
But I just err, baby, I do, I error
So come find me, my darling one
I'm down to the grounds, the very dregs
Ah, here she comes, blocking the sun
Blood running down the inside of her legs
The moon in the sky is battered and mangled
bAnd the bells from the chapel go jingle-jangle
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Like I love you?
All things move toward their end
I knew before I met her that I would lose her
I swear I made every effort to be good to her
I made every effort not to abuse her
Crazy bracelets on her wrists and her ankles
And the bells from the chapel go jingle-jangle
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Like I love you?
Nick Cave. I cannot comment.
I posted the entire text, as it is perfect.

So it WAS the Beatles after all!
Thanks Bilb.
My idiot mate always thought it was Cliff Richard...or Tommy Steele. Moron.
You have spared me a few sleepless nights. I owe you one!

Hey oneman,
Anytime at all, anytime at all, anytime at all, all you gotta do is call,
And I'll be there.

i heard this nick cave song on sarurday and remembered my school years, when i first listened to nick cave, and .... it's just memories
Now Frank Zappa
again the whole song, he deserves it
I am gross and perverted
I'm obsessed 'n deranged
I have existed for years
But very little had changed
I am the tool of the Government
And industry too
For I am destined to rule
And regulate you
I may be vile and pernicious
But you can't look away
I make you think I'm delicious
With the stuff that I say
I am the best you can get
Have you guessed me yet?
I am the slime oozin' out
From your TV set
You will obey me while I lead you
And eat the garbage that I feed you
Until the day that we don't need you
Don't got for help... no one will heed you
Your mind is totally controlled
It has been stuffed into my mold
And you will do as you are told
Until the rights to you are sold
That's right, folks..
Don't touch that dial
Well, I am the slime from your video
Oozin' along on your livin' room floor
I am the slime from your video
Can't stop the slime, people, look аt me go
