[SakuraEtsuko]

ok..the artist is part lakota and part white...her voice is heavenly...and she writes/sings chants on her albums that are spiritual, inspiring, and touch the hearts of all people.

[dorksrcool]

Buffy St. Marie?

[SakuraEtsuko]

nope...another hint...one of my favorite of her songs is called Fire Prayer..coincidentally the name of one of her albums..but not the album that this song is from..tee hee hee

~K~

[dorksrcool]

I know who the artist is now but I'm having a heck of a time figuring out what the song is. Could I just have one more little clue about the song title? I swear I will download this song and listen to it daily, but it's driving me nuts that I can't figure out what it is. Any help is much appreciated.

[SakuraEtsuko]

ok lol its hard to give a clue without giving it away but..it is not fire prayer..however the song name is the same as the album name.

~K~

[dorksrcool]

Okay, I think I've got it. Good for you for introducing me to this artist. I would have never heard of her if it weren't for your post.

Denean "Thunder?"

[SakuraEtsuko]

~K~

[dorksrcool]

Yes K, she's fabulous! Very peaceful and soothing music. Anyway, here goes mine....

"If dreams are like movies
then memories are films about ghosts.
You can never escape,
you can only move south down the coast."

[SakuraEtsuko]

Mrs. Potter's Lullaby
Artist: Counting Crows
right?

ok this is the HARDEST...whoever can find this..wowies..i mean if u can then u totally rock

a hint..this artist is kinda fringe (up and rising)

why must you hide behind the only thing between us
the border between luck and fate
why did you change your name to someone i can't call out for
i could try but its way too late

~Karen~

[dorksrcool]

All right, you've stumped us again. Does anybody know this one? I think we need another hint, pretty please.

[FineyMcFine]

Stumped, yes. Hint! Or something that we can google!

[Jennpurr]

Not to be rude, but how about we just go to the next song?

Next: This one should be easy and considering the fact that I can't get the darn song out of my head, I might as well make use of it.


Talking, laughing, loving, breathing
Fighting, fucking, crying, drinking
Writing, winning, losing, cheating
Kissing, thinking, dreaming

That would be Betty doing the theme song from The L-Word, I think it's called The Way That We Live.

Kenny and Linda on the way to Chelan
transmission’s shot, no back up plan
will they hitch a ride?
or get into a fight?

[dorksrcool]

Is mine too hard? I don't want to hold up the game. A hint....this song is by three really cool women from Portland with one of the best albums released in 2005.

[FineyMcFine]

Not with this crowd, it's not too hard...

Sleater-Kinney, "Wilderness"

I'm fencing off this little piece of heaven.
Cross the line and you're electrocuted.
Polishing up my AK47.
It's a constitutional right, can't be refuted.

[Blue Pariah]

That's Michigan Milita by Moxy Fruvous.

Howzabout

Up and down that road in our worn-out shoes
Talking about good thangs and singin' the blues
You went your way and I stayed behind
We both knew it was just a matter of time

[dorksrcool]

Stevie Ray Vaughn "Life By the Drop"

Rosemary.
heaven restores you in life.
You're coming with me
through the aging, the fear and the strife."

[Foomatic]

Interpol "Evil"

When we first moved in together
The piano took up the living room
You'd play me boogie woogie
I played you love songs

[FineyMcFine]

Jack Johnson, "Do You Remember"

And everyone is blonde
And everyone is beautiful
and when blondes and beautiful are multiple
they become so dull and dutiful

[kindagay]

That's Rotterdam by The Beautiful South.

You go up, down, turn around
Merry go round and round
Shake it, shake it
two times
Do-si-do
Cotton eyed joe

[Jennpurr]

Bowling For Soup, right? "Dance With You?"

If so, here's mine:


Dry your eyes
And stand upright
Put a smile on your face
He wouldn't want us to cry

The sun will rise
The stars will shine
Turning day to dusk
And night to dawn
We'll pass on
But until that time


Bonus points if you can tell me what TV show that song played on!

[HalfCamel]

Tracy Chapman "Say Hallelujah"?
No bonus points for me. :(


Love can be so strange
Don't it amaze you?
Every time you give yourself away
It comes back to haunt you
Love's an elusive charm and it can be painful
To understand this crazy world
But you're not gonna crack
No you're never gonna crack

[Jennpurr]

Correct and it played on The L Word, at the funeral/wake, Season 2.

Garbage - Run Baby Run

I love that CD. It didn't leave my player for months after it came out.

She breaks her heart
Just a little too much
And her jokes attract the lucky bad type
As she dips and wails
And slips her banshee smile
She gets the better of the bigger to the letter

[Jennpurr]

Bayhaus - The Passion of Lovers

Darling, I'm flying
Darling, I'm flying
I can go
I can go anywhere
But no other love
Can take me there

[willowfan7]

Heart - No Other Love

Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlight people, living just to find emotion
Hiding, somewhere in the night

[Foomatic]

Don't Stop Believing, Journey

It’s never over, my kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It’s never over, all my riches for her smiles when I slept so soft against her
It’s never over, all my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
It’s never over, she’s the tear that hangs inside my soul forever

[Jennpurr]

Jeff Buckley - Lover, You Should've Come Over

Amar es cuando la proteges
De la lluvia Y el viento
Amar es cuando tu la abrazas
Y te olvidas del tiempo
Amar es cuando tu la ves
Y te pones nervioso
Amar es cuando te das cuenta
De tus sentimientos

Enrique Iglesias - "Por Amarte"
(I liked Enrique much better when he sang songs like this.)

Here's mine:

She's my friend of all friends
She's still here when everyone's gone
She doesn't have to say a thing
We'll just keep laughing all night long
All night long

[Leafsdude]

Azure Ray - "Displaced"

"Well, tell me did you think it'd be alright,
If I could just crash here tonight.
You could see I'm no shape for driving,
And, anyway, I've got no place to go.

And you know it might not be that bad,
You were the best I'd ever had.
If I hadn't blown the whole thing years ago,
I may not be alone."
