It's a Song Lyrics game thread [More:]There's a couple of gimmes in there.

1. 'Cause you're making me feel like I've never been born

2. Even your emotions have an echo in so much space

3. Assail him impale him with monster truck force.

4. You've yet to have your finest hour

5. Turns out I was a vampire myself

6. spitting out pieces of his broken luck

7. She told me to come but I was already there

8. In a town, where I lost every shirt on the fence

9. we went down to the courthouse and the judge put it all to rest

10. transportation is here

Good luck! I might not be back to check for an hour or so...

I think I got it!

#10 Owner of a Lonely Heart, Yes

Nope, Miko, try again on #10...

Everyone else is right. So we have:

2. Even your emotions have an echo in so much space
5. Turns out I was a vampire myself
8. In a town, where I lost every shirt on the fence
10. transportation is here

I repeated #8 to myself twenty times and I still can't figure it out. I KNOW that damn lyric, and I know it's a song I like, but I can't even get a gauge on what era it is. I think my problem was that I started reading the lyrics while something else was playing.

Hints!

2. mentioned today
5. cover version is the known one, probably
8. bouncy
10. no sense

argh. I can hear #2 in my head but can't sing more than that line to myself.
posted by wens 21 January | 17:27
I gave up and looked it up. When you get #10, you're going to want to slap your head with your hand!

#5 is Devil Town. I'm pretty sure the original was written/done by Daniel Johnston, but the Bright Eyes cover is most well known.

#10 must be Burning Down the House by the Talking Heads.

#10 is definitely Burning Down the House, a song I hate with . . .um . . . a burning passion.
posted by bearwife 21 January | 18:11
Speaking of songs I hate, #2 is from Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy."
posted by bearwife 21 January | 18:16
Yep, so that just leaves #8 which is Sing Me Spanish Techno by The New Pornographers.

The End. Good job, peeps.
