Name That Song!

2. Sitting in the classroom
Thinking it's a drag
Listening to the teacher rap
Just ain't my bag
The noon bells ring
You know that's my cue
I'm gonna meet the boys
On floor number two!

** yup!!! So anyone feel like tackling the next round?

You have to pick three songs that share a common theme and give us 1 verse of each song. If the thread reaches the bottom of the page you put another verse up or some other sort of clue.

Try to pick songs people will actually know... it's tough but I find that the Rhino Records top ten albums help a lot.

Here's a new set:

1. Every hour of every day I'm learning more
The more I learn, the less I know about before
The less I know, the more I want to look around
Digging deep for clues on ...

2. Think about it, there must be ...
Down in the heart or hidden in the stars above
Without it, life is a wasted time
Look inside your heart, I'll look inside mine
Things look so bad everywhere
In this whole world, what is fair?
We walk blind and we try to see
Falling behind in what could be

3. When dreaming I'm guided to another world
Time and time again
At sunrise I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't want to leave the comfort of this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I'm awake

You used to pick songs I knew.

but you should know at least one of these artists...

1. Moon and stars sit way up high
Earth and trees beneath them lie
The wind blows fragrant lullaby
To cool the night for you and I
On the wind the birds fly free
Leviathan tames angry sea
The flower waits for honeybee
The sunrise wakes new life in me

2. Worlds are turning and we're just hanging on
Facing our fear and standing out there alone
A yearning, and it's real to me
There must be someone who's feeling for me
Things look so bad everywhere
In this whole world, what is fair?
We walk blind and we try to see
Falling behind in what could be

3. So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay

Can you take me _._._._._._?
To a place where blind men see?
Can you take me _._._._._._?
To a place with golden streets?

whoops - double post...

I was going to guess Higher by Winger or whoever did that 80s song.

 

[kbomb106]

Since it's a single word song title, I'm guessing the theme is higher.

Yes!!! ** I figured someone here would recognize Creed.

* good guessing... That should help with the rest of the song titles.

** Finally!!!

(I honestly thought these songs were more well known.... ah well...)

Anyone feel like starting a set?

You have to pick 3 songs sharing a common theme and give one verse of each song. Then pay attention and give additional clues whenever the thread reaches the bottom of the page or at least once a day...

1. There she goes and knows I'm dying
When she says, ...
Games with names that girl is playing
All she says is ...
I try to understand because I'm people too
And playing games is part of human nature
My heart's in overdrive
It's great to be alive

2. ...I said we were through
Just to see what you would do
You stood there and hung your head
Made me wish that I were dead

3. Way down Louisiana close to New Orleans
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
Where lived a country boy name of ...
He never ever learned to read or write so well
But he could play the guitar like ringing a bell
