Song lyric stuck in my head...

[Blue66669]

Mael.... you are a prince among men. Thanks for feeding my need for some good old fashioned dark metal...

Here's something that you guys may remember....

Tito and Tarantula... After Dark

Watching her
Strolling in the night
So white
Wondering why
It's only After Dark

In her eyes
A distant fire light
burns bright
Wondering why
It's only After Dark

I find myself in her room
Feel the fever of my doom
Falling falling
Through the floor
I'm knocking on the Devil's door

In the Dawn
I wake up to find
her gone
And a note says
Only After Dark

Burning burning
in the flame
Now I know her
secret name
You can tear her temple down
But she'll be back
and rule again

In my heart
A deep and dark
and lonely part
Wants her and
waits for After Dark

[Lady Christina de Pond]

You boys ever met a real country girl?
Talkin, true blue, out in the woods, down home, country girl

She's a hot little number in her pick-up truck
Daddy's sweet money done jacked it up
She's a party-all-nighter from South Carolina, a bad mamajama from down in Alabama
She's a raging cajun, a lunatic from Brunswick, juicy Georgia peach
With a thick southern drawl, sexy swing and walk, brother she's all

Country, (shoot) from her cowboy boots to her down home roots
She's country, from the songs she plays to the prayers she prays,
That's the way she was born and raised, she ain't afraid to stay, country
Brother she's country

A hell raisin sugar when the sun goes down, mama taught her how to rip up a town
Honey dripping honey from the hollerin Kentucky, getcha flippin kinda trippie like a Mississippi hippie,
She's a Kansas princess, crazy mother trucker, undercover lover
Thick southern drawl, sexy swing and walk,
Brother she's all

Country (shoot) from her cowboy boots to her down home roots
She's country, from the songs she plays to the prayers she prays,
That's the way she was born and raised, she ain't afraid to stay, country
Nothin but country

(thick southern drawl)
(sexy swing and walk)
(aw show 'em how a country girl does it one time now)

Brother she's country, from her cowboy boots to her down home roots
Nothin but country
Yea yeayeaaa
She's country (shoot) from her cowboy boots to her down home roots
She's country, from the songs she plays to the prayers she prays,
That's the way she was born and raised she ain't afraid to stay, country
Yea she's nothing but country

She's all about the country
From the backwoods she's a homegrown, down to the bone, she's country

Did someone say Dark Metal?? How 'bout a lil sumthin'-sumthin' from "The World's Scariest Band"?  A bunch of us used to hang out at this little hole-in-the-wall bar and people would line dance to this!!

Oh, and Lady C?  I used to date that girl.  Born and raised on a cattle farm, drove a no-nonsense, lifted pickup, and about as country as you can get.  Trust me, not all "Country Girls" are everything they're cracked up to be.

Afraid This Time - Celldweller

Even if you want, you can't touch me now
Leave me if you want you can't hurt me now

Build them up
High and strong so you'll never have to hurt too long
Put them up,
Til they surround and there's no real you left to be found
Hold it up,
High above no fear of hope or trust or love
Close it up,
And hold your ground and wait until it's time to finally close it down

It isn't easy to admit
I don't think I'm believing it
I'm afraid this time
(It isn't easy to admit I dont think I'm believing it)
It's not the same this time
(It isn't easy to admit I don't think im believing it)

Build them up
So you'll never have to hurt too long
Put them up,
And there's no real you left to be found
Hold it up,
No fear of hope or trust or love
Close it up,
And wait until it's time to finally close it down

I'm afraid this time
(It isn't easy to admit I dont think im believing it)
It's not the same this time
I'm afraid this time
(Even if you want, you can't touch me now
Leave me if you want you can't hurt me now)
I'm afraid
(Even if you want, you can't touch me now
Leave me if you want you can't hurt me now)

Even if you want, you can't touch me now
Leave me if you want you can't hurt me now

Im afraid this time
(This isn't easy to admit, but I don't think Im believing it)
I'm afraid this time
(Even if you want, you can't touch me now
Leave me if you want you can't hurt me now)

This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid
This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid
This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid
This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid
This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid this time

This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid
This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid
This isn't easy to admit, but I'm afraid
This isn't easy.

Ohhh, what am I feeling? What am I feeling?

Ooooo! How 'bout a nod to one of the best metal voices of the 80's and 90's and to theme albums all in one swell foop?

[Demetrius]

Love is like oxygen
You get too much you get too high
Not enough and you're gonna die
Love gets you high

Love is like oxygen
(love is like oxygen)
You get too much you get too high
(too high)
Not enough and you're gonna die (gonna die)
Love gets you high

Time on my side
I got it all
I've heard that pride
Always comes before a fall

There's a rumour goin' round the town
That you don't want me around
I can't shake off my city blues
Every way I turn I lose

Love is like oxygen
(love is like oxygen)
You get too much you get too high
(too high)
Not enough and you're gonna die (gonna die)
Love gets you high

Time is no healer
If you're not there
Lonely fever
Sad words in the air

Some things are better left unsaid
I'm gonna spend my days in bed
I'll walk the streets at night
To be hidden by the city lights, city lights

Love is like oxygen
(love is like oxygen)
You get too much you get too high (too high)
Not enough and you're gonna die (gonna die)
Love gets you high

A Dangerous Meeting

Tonight the circle is meeting again
Who will be the first to fall in trance
In here nobody is sensing the rain
Tonight the spirit will glance
So as they're approaching ghostly hour
Seven people here are joining hands
They think they know the spirit to appear
Contact, the table starts to dance
Time is standing still
It's a dangerous meeting
They're gonna get themselves killed

Tonight the circle is broken forever
Seven people dead within a trance
In here nobody is sensing the rain
Tonight seven souls are reaching hell
Time was standing still
The meeting is over
Their journey is on
Oh, they should have known
Not to play with the powers of Hell
Some people have lost their way
Some people have lost their mind

- Mercyful Fate

There's some black metal for ya....

[maelstrom0370]

Love is like oxygen
You get too much you get too high

You get too much you get too high

Love gets you high

When I was a little kid, my dad used to have a bunch of those K-Tel "Greatest Hits" albums.  This song was on one of them and I would listen to it endlessly!  Thanks for the pleasent little stroll through my childhood, Demetrius!

Glad we share great taste in music!  I have twenty CDs from Sweet.

Here's another from back then-

I heard the men saying something
The captains tell they pay you well
And they say they need sailing men to
Show the way and leave today
Was it you that said, "How long?"
They say the sea turns so dark that
You know it's time, you see the sign
They say the point demons guard is
An ocean grave for all the brave
Was it you that said, "How long, how long,
How long to the point of know return?"
Your father, he said he needs you
Your mother, she said she loves you
Your brothers, they echo the words
"How far to the point of know return?"
"Well, how long?"
Today I found a message floating
In the sea from you to me
You wrote that when you could see it
You cried with fear, the point was near
Was it you that said, "How long
To the point of know return?"

-Kansas

In 1983 (yes, I was very young, and far more wild than now...) I was at the Texas World Music Festival, better known as the Texxas Jam, and the Band line-up was:

Styx
Sammy Hagar
Triumph
Ted Nugent
Uriah Heep

Styx, as the headliner, played last, and this is the song that everyone stood and sang with them...


Babe - Styx

Babe I'm leaving
I must be on my way
The time is drawing near
My train is going
I see it in your eyes
The love, the need, your tears
But I'll be lonely without you
And I'll need your love to see me through
So please believe me
My heart is in your hands
I'll be missing you

'Cause you know it's you babe
Whenever I get weary
And I've had enough
Feel like giving up
You know it's you babe
Giving me the courage
And the strength I need
Please believe that it's true
Babe, I love you

Babe, I'm leaving
I'll say it once again
And somehow try to smile
I know the feeling we're trying to forget
If only for awhile
'Cause I'll be lonely without you
And I'll need your love to see me through
Please believe me
My heart is in your hands
'Cause I'll be missing you
Babe, I love you
Babe, I love you
Ooooh, Babe

You are here and warm
But I could look away and you'd be gone
Cause we live in a time
When meaning falls in splinters from our lives
And that's why I've travelled far
Cause I come so together where you are

And all of the things that I said that I wanted
Come rushing by in my head when I'm with you
14 joys and a will to be merry
And all of the things that we say are very
Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental Lady
Gentle one

Now you are here today
But easily you might just go away
Cause we live in a time
When paintings have no color, words don't rhyme
And that's why I've travelled far
Cause I come so together where you are

And all of the things that I said that I wanted
Come rushing by in my head when I'm with you
14 joys and a will to be merry
And all of the things that we say are very
Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental Lady
Gentle one

You are here and warm
But I could look away and you'd be gone
Cause we live in a time
When meaning falls in splinters from our lives
And that's why I've travelled far
Cause I come so together where you are

Yes and all of the things that I said that I wanted
Come rushing by in my head when I'm with you
14 joys and a will to be merry
And all of the things that we say are very
Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental Lady
Gentle one

Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental Lady
Gentle one

Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental Lady
Gentle one

Well sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental Lady
Gentle one

[Welsh Wench]

Time is on my side, yes it is
Time is on my side, yes it is

Now you always say
That you want to be free
But you'll come running back (said you would baby)
You'll come running back (I said so many times before)
You'll come running back to me

Oh, time is on my side, yes it is
Time is on my side, yes it is

You're searching for good times
But just wait and see
You'll come running back (I won't have to worry no more)
You'll come running back (spend the rest of my life with you, baby)
You'll come running back to me

Go ahead, go ahead and light up the town
And baby, do everything your heart desires
Remember, I'll always be around
And I know, I know
Like I told you so many times before
You're gonna come back, baby
'Cause I know
You're gonna come back knocking
Yeah, knocking right on my door
Yes, yes!

Well, time is on my side, yes it is
Time is on my side, yes it is

'Cause I got the real love
The kind that you need
You'll come running back (said you would, baby)
You'll come running back (I always said you would)
You'll come running back, to me
Yes time, time, time is on my side, yes it is
Time, time, time is on my side, yes it is
Oh, time, time, time is on my side, yes it is
I said, time, time, time is on my side, yes it is
Oh, time, time, time is on my side
Yeah, time, time, time is on my side

aaaahhh nursery rhymes 



Its not your situation, I just need contemplation over you
Im not so systematic, its just that Im an addict for your love

Not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
Youre my only girl
Im not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
Youre my only world

Just think how long Ive known you, its long for me to own you, lock and key
Its really not confusing, Im just the young illusion, cant you see

Im not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
Youre my only girl
Im not the only one that holds you, I never ever should have told you
Youre my only world

Georgy porgy, pudding pie, kissed the girls and made them cry
Kissed the girls and made them cry, kissed the girls and made them cry

(in strumental break)

Its not your situation, I just need contemplation over you

Youre my only world

Georgy porgy, pudding pie, kissed the girls and made them cry
Kissed the girls and made them cry, kissed the girls and made them cry

Georgy porgy, pudding pie, kissed the girls and made them cry
Kissed the girls and made them cry, kissed the girls and made them high

Georgy porgy
Kissed the girls and made them cry, kissed the girls and made them high
Georgy porgy
Kissed the girls and made them cry, kissed the girls and made them cry

I looked out this morning and the sun was gone
Turned on some music to start my day
I lost myself in a familiar song
I closed my eyes and I slipped away

Its more than a feeling, when I hear that old song they used to play (more than a feeling)
I begin dreaming (more than a feeling)
till I see marianne walk away
I see my marianne walkin away

So many people have come and gone
Their faces fade as the years go by
Yet I still recall as I wander on
As clear as the sun in the summer sky

Its more than a feeling, when I hear that old song they used to play (more than a feeling)
I begin dreaming (more than a feeling)
till I see marianne walk away
I see my marianne walkin away

When Im tired and thinking cold
I hide in my music
, forget the day
And dream of a girl I used to know
I closed my eyes and she slipped away
She slipped awa y. she slipped away.

Its more than a feeling, when I hear that old song they used to play (more than a feeling)
I begin dreaming (more than a feeling)
till I see marianne walk away
I see my marianne walkin away

[Demetrius]

In the attic lights
Voices scream
Nothing's seen
Real's a dream

Leaving the things that are real behind
Leaving the things that you love from mind
All of the things that you learned from fears
Nothing is left for the years

Voices scream
Nothing's seen
Real's a dream

Toys, toys, Toys In The Attic

Lights
Voices scream
Nothing's seen
Real's a dream

Leaving the things that are real behind
Leaving the things that you love from mind
All of the things that you learned from fears
Nothing is left for the years

Voices scream
Nothing's seen
Real's a dream
