Lyric trivia...of sorts. - Page 5

I don't know that one, but here's another to revive the thread:

///
overwhelmed and possessed by your beauty
hypnotized to follow you blind
your dark side was revealed to me before
the possibility of betrayal i did ignore
///

Admittedly, that's not an easy one. At all.

hypnotized by the pilfers. am i right or am i right? woot.
what is it about that song that makes it so fucking good? i don't think i'd listen to music like that otherwise.

04-22-2002, 03:01 PM

I think part of it is the "CLEAR CLEAR! you betta broke outta here" and how he says "outta".

I think the other part is that the Pilfers were simply a very good band. It's unfortunate that they didn't get major-label backing, because I find their music to be of a much higher caliber (and much more listenable) than the main-stream ska, but it's also pop-y. All in all, I like it. The rest of that album is very good too. I should send you the MP3's.

And yes, you're right, as I guessed you probably would be. I don't figure anyone else around here has ever heard of the Pilfers

<b>Hypnotized</b> really is just an awesome song though.

The "The dance floor's a desert..." one I posted was Massive Attack "Daydreaming".

I guess I win?

BTW, did anyone pick up the Massive Attack "Eleven Promos" DVD that just came out? Its fucking awesome.

I just feel like throwing one out...

"Dear God, how have you been, then?
I'm not fine, fuck pretending."

"Down in a Hole" by AIC of course.

Incidentally, my lyric is an AIC song too.

04-24-2002, 01:32 PM

Yes, and I didn't answer it because I figured you would know that it would be pretty easy for me, kinda wanting me to leave it for someone else... kinda like I figured for the "Down In A Hole" lyric. You turd.

I'll still leave it for someone else though.

Fucking sue me.

Seriously though, I didn't know if anyone would guess mine. It's not what I would call easily decipherable. Yours wasn't either for that matter. The way he sings it makes it sound open to interpretation if you don't actually know the lines.

Well, while we're on the subject of not-easily-decipherable lyrics, let's go with..

///
cool and stressing

pronounced "cool ranch dressing"

this oughta be a sorta tough one. I'd only expect you and Jenni to get it, really.

elSicomoro · 04-24-2002, 02:57 PM

G n' R--"Pretty Tied Up"

Hmmm...you might get this one:

"I'm in love with this malicious intent
You've been taken but you don't know it yet
What you will know must never live to be found
'Cause it's the subject of the eyes of the clown"

04-24-2002, 03:31 PM

hehe. of course i'll get that. favorite ministry album.

new world order. ministry. track 1 psalm 69. well, technically, it's called "n.w.o." but we all know what that means.

TELL ME SOMETHING I DON'T KNOW SHOW ME SOMETHING I CAN'T USE PUSH THE BUTTON CONNECT THE GODDAMN DOTS!

"the way to succeed and the way to suck eggs"

hehe. i love that cd.

elSicomoro · 04-24-2002, 03:45 PM

Ah..."TV II."

I like the first TV Song, although I've only seen it on a live bootleg. It's not even in my import singles box set. "TV III" is alright, but not as good as the first two.

How funny...Psalm 69 made me open my Bible for the first time in years.

Well, since no one else is doing it... God Am.
