For all the bored out there, apologies if it's too easy/hard:

1. "Jesus knows that I'll be saved/I want the water in which you bathe"
2. "I've been a better lover with your mother"
3. "Pay your rent/pay your bills/pay the doctor for your pills"
4. "It's 'Sorry'/just one cherry/'play again'/get lucky"
5. "Today was a pretty day/autumn comes with/these slight surprises where your life might twist and turn"
6. "Gone the summer/gone the past/and now it's done"
7. "The moon is a lightbulb breaking/it'll go around with anyone/but it won't come down for anyone"
8. "It could be way over my head/I'm helpless to describe it"
9. "When your in Spain with whatever his name is/I'll forget you in the taxi"

and

10. "He's got the fire and the fury at his command/but you don't have to worry hold on to Jesus hand"

I love that song.

A lovely song indeed..


Number 9

The Research - When you Get Home

10

"Way down in the hole" (Tom Waits)

ooh, good song...

and I see you have a Wire obsession... :)


My obsession

is troubling at best..


Yay!

Big indie points for that one!!


OK

Still to play for is:
The song names for 1, 4 and 7
and all of 6 and 8.

Anyone want clues?


6 is Richard Hawley

Indeed it is!


4

Wate of paint


yep

yep yep yep yep


you think right!!

Very good


is 8 still needed??

is it Sebadoh?


You are a winner!

and you just saved me from trying to think of a clue, very well done.


I think I'm half winner

as I can't actually name the track

maybe you can think of a clue for that...


How about..

It's off the Kids soundtrack and rhymes with 'embroiled'...


spoiled!

should have known. I only got the Kids soundtrack recently


yay!

Love that album, possibly my favourite soundtrack EVER!!


I said something similar on a thread the other day

I recently put Dadddy Never Understood as the opening track on a mixtape I made for my housemate and she told me never to make her a one again. She's really into Reggae though.


well that's just poor

I'm pretty sure I have a copy of 100% reggae 2 somewhere and yet still like noise.. some people..


Only 20 mins til home time

and we only need the song title to 1, come on eary hefner fans i know you can do it..
