Is it wrong that I truly have a list of songs to play at my funeral (this being one of them?)Originally posted by EuropeanFootballMale View PostDoes anyone know where the love of God goes when the waves turn the minutes to hours"Either evolution or intelligent design can account for the athlete, but neither can account for the sports fan." - Robert Brault

It sounds campy, but I think the lyric from Just the Way You Are by Bruno Mars is the most genuinely sweet, heart-felt, and touching lyrics I have heard in a long time wrapped up in a nice, poppy, and hook-laden melody. To quote Trent Walker, the Dude is money. He has an incredible sense for writing powerful songs (they are not necessarily 'deep' in meaning, or edgy', but whatever).
Originally posted by Bruno MarsWhen I compliment her
She wont believe me
And its so, its so
Sad to think she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me do I look okay
I say
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you areSpoiler for complete lyric (Completely SFW, just conserving space).:
Oh her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day
Yeah I know, I know
When I compliment her
She wont believe me
And its so, its so
Sad to think she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me do I look okay
I say
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
Her lips, her lips
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates but I think its so sexy
She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day
Oh you know, you know, you know
Id never ask you to change
If perfect is what you're searching for
Then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking
If you look okay
You know I say
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
The way you are
The way you are
Girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

Fatlip - What's up Fatlip
I make myself sick
Get on my own nerves
Immature, insecure,
Grown up nerd
About every 6 months or so, I bust out some Pharcyde or this Fatlip song and I always wonder why I don't listen to them more.As I lead this army, make room for mistakes and depression

Think you have Dexy's Midnight Runners confused with Manfred Mann with those misheard lyrics from "Blinded by the Light". Besides, the song was written by Bruce Springsteen although he used "cut loose like a deuce" instead of "revved up like a deuce" when he released it on his debut album "Greetings from Asbury park NJ".Originally posted by U-Ute View PostMy favorites are the misheard ones...

My contribution:
Oh, mirror in the sky what is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail thru the changing ocean tides?
Can I handle the seasons of my life?
Well, I've been afraid of changing
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you boulder

And I'm getting older too

God's given us years of happiness here
Now we must part
And as the angels come and call for you
The pains of grief tug at my heart
"Your Long Journey", Robert Plant and Allison Krauss
So let’s unlock the secret
Till the cause is found and shown
To every family that knows that painful road
And the impatient patients
Who want to get up and go home
At least we can pin some hope
On the map of the human genome
"Map of the Human Genome", Kevin Hearn and Thin Buckle"...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

Be glad he didn't sing this little gem from David Draiman of Disturbed instead:Originally posted by Slim View PostThe other day my 4 year old was singing this to his hermit crab.
Spoiler for Stupify by Disturbed:
Yeah, bringing you another disturbing creation
from the mind of one sick animal who can't tell the difference
and gets stupified
I've been waiting my whole life for just one fuck
And all I needed was just one fuck
How can you say that you don't give a fuck
I find myself stupified, coming back again
All I wanted was just one fuck
One tiny little innocent fuck
And when I feel like I'm shit out of luck
I find my stupified, coming back again
Why, do you like playing around with
My, narrow scope of reality
I, can feel it all start slipping
I think I'm breaking down
Why, do you like playing around with
My, narrow scope of reality
I, can feel it all start slipping away!
See but I don't get it
Don't you think maybe we could put it on credit
Don't you think it can take control when I don't let it
I get stupified
It's all the same you say
Live with it
All the people in the left wing rock
And all the people in the right wing rock
And all the people in the underground rock
I find myself stupified, coming back again
All the people in the high rise rock
And all the people in the projects rock
And all la hente in the bario rock
I and myself stupified, coming back again
(If all fails)
And don't deny me
No baby now, don't deny me
And darlin' don't be afraid
Look in my face, stare in my soul
I begin to stupify
[YOUTUBE]SOOr1FZYk5g[/YOUTUBE]
It DOES contain the following lyric, apropos to many on this forum (on one side or the other):
"why, do you like playing around with
My, narrow scope of reality?
I, can feel it all start slipping
I think I'm breaking down!"

Some quick thoughts-
Bob Seger, Against the Wind:
"Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then."
Sugar, If I Can't Change Your Mind:
"How can I explain away something that I haven't done?
And if you can't trust me now, you'll never trust in anyone."
The Cranberries, Empty:
"Say a prayer for me.
Help me to feel the strength I did.
My identity, has it been taken?
Is my heart breaking on me?"
Kenny Rogers, Coward of the County:
"But you coulda heard a pin drop
when Tommy stopped and locked the door.""What are you prepared to do?" - Jimmy Malone
"What choice?" - Abe Petrovsky
