Jenn,



I have the bookmark on my other computer, but I a good one I've found is either at...



http://www.lyrics.com



or



http://www.songlyrics.com



I hope one of those is correct.



Edited to add: I just realized you said you wanted to be able to type in certain lines. That site might not be able to do that. Sorry.

Jenn, just go to Google and type in a line from a song. But here's the trick, put it in "quotation marks"

---

Lil' Trevor : Always the life of the party.

[Jennpurr]

LadyB,



Thanks for those links. I think you have to know the name of the song you are looking for to use them though. Thank you.



Brian,



Ooooh, thank you!



I had been using google, but wasn't using quotation marks. Thanks for the tip.



I'll have to remember that.



Jen

Guster - "All the Way Up To Heaven"



How in this world

Can we put a man on the moon

And still have a need

For a place like St. Judes

And why is one man born

In a place where all they know is war

And a guy like me,

Has always been free

Chiana and Talikaa lean towards each other. They touch upper lips, moving their faces in response to each other. They kiss lightly and move away a bit. Talikaa touches Chiana's lip with her tongue, Chiana leaning towards her again. Chiana smiles. They kiss again. ~ Farscape, Season 4: "Twice Shy"

"A Few Questions" by Clay Walker



And with the early dawn

Moving right along

Couldn't buy a eye full of sleep

And in the aching nights under satellites

I was not received

"Show Me How to Live" - Audioslave



I don't need no TV,

I don't need no news,

All I need is a bumpin beat

to bump away my blues.

"Invincible" - Pat Benatar







"Your faith was strong but you needed proof

you saw her bathing on the roof

her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you

She tied you to a kitchen chair

she broke your throne, she cut your hair

And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah"





Bonus points if you can guess:

1) Who wrote it

2) who did a cover of it

3) which movie soundtrack the original version is on.



Happy guessing

[OhGroovetasticOne]

To answer the questions first:

1. Hallelujah - Leonard Cohen

2. Covered by many including Bono and Jeff Buckley

3. A version by Rufus Wainwright is on the Shrek soundtrack. I don't know of a soundtrack featuring the original.



so let me in now

I am ready to move

and here comes fear and resistance from you

and for once I am willing and now what?

i’ve got to wait?



these lessons are everywhere in my life

you know I never waited for anyone

and I was always right

but now I give up, I surrender

I would wait for you...forever

Melissa Ferrick - "The Stranger"



Self involved security, yet you are such a part of me

And somehow what we do seeps into me, seeps into you

It's subtle-it's creepy knees

It's condescension versus humility



I know you! (I swear I do)

You're just like me- You're sipping a cup of pity

~LadyB~

And I'm talkin' to myself at night

Because I can't forget

Back and forth through my mind

"Seven Nation Army," The White Stripes?



Are you dreaming

What i'm dreaming

I can't read your mind

One step towards you

Two steps back

Feels like i'm crawling

[kbk3022]

That song there is "Hype" by Tegan and Sara. Go me.



Next song is this here:



"It's a little bit funny this feeling inside

I'm not one of those who can easily hide

I don't have much money but boy if I did

I'd buy a big house where we both could live."

"What came first, the music or the misery?

People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over.

Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss. Did

I listen to pop music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?"

[BytrSuite]

"Your Song" by Elton John. Kasey, dammit, that song is going to stick in my head. lol



I'm not here to forget you, I'm here to recall

The things we used to say and do

I don't want to get over you

I don't want to get over you

"When I'm Gone" 3 Doors Down



You've seen me in the papers,

I've been in the magazines,

But if I go cold, I won't get sold

I'll get put in the back in a discount rack

Like another can of beans

I'll just put it in a bubble and blow it away!!!.

So you could see the truth:

That this love I have inside

Okay, Pearl Jam remade this song "Last Kiss" but I can't freakin' remember who did the original. It's an oldie.



Anyway, here we go again:

With no tomorrow,

And loneliness starts to call."

But every day, I'm more confused as the saints turn into sinners.

"Show Me the Way" by Styx



alright... this one then?



I

Can fly like a bird in the sky.

Hey, and I can buy anything that money can buy.

Oh, I

I can turn a river into a raging fire.

I can live forever if I so desired.

When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a communist.
