Guess the song.

To the random people who didn't catch me mess up, I posted something for the wrong game. Grr.

The Bewlay Brothers

"I'm a wrought iron face upon the wall"

Sweet Head (awefull lyrics in places )

"Love descends on those defenseless."

Soul Love ?

"I stumble into town just like a sacred cow"

China Girl of course! (This sing is actually kind of lame, to sing I mean, except that the building and crescendo is so damn awsome! I wish it ended better... The fade-out is a let down).

"She got Latin roots.
She got everything."

Oh god... i have the rythm in my head but i can't remember... grrrr... frustration.

(The video is a forgotten gem, quite awesome actually, and it has "special" effects like you've never seen EVER sinse or before in a music video (non that I know of anyway).

Let me help you a lill furhter - you're not in the 60s and neighter are you in the 2000s ;-p

Ahah i just found it one second before i read your message !

(thanks to a mental image of the clip)

Blue Jean !!! of course

(Jesus, my writing just failed in that post... Oh well, I'm drinkin' wine, so there :-p )

Give us a song, luv! (Yeah, Blue Jean is right :-D )

oops sorry !

"Flashing no colour tall in this room overlooking the ocean"

LadyGrinningSoul, this is my favorite db song ever! (And album). It is Station to Station of course :-D

(Thank you!)

I'm going to cheat a little here... The next song is a db song, but it also isn't ;-)
"Wendy's stealing clothes from unlocked cars."

(Station to station is a wonderful song, the lyrics are so beautiful, even translated in french with Reverso, they still be magical)

All the young dudes ? ^^

"As lonely as a moon
Misty and far away"

(Who's Reverso??? Let me know!!!!)

That's Looking for Satelites :-)

What about this?
"We came from the farmlands,
to live in this city.
We walked proud and lustful,
in this resonant world.
You want to fight,
but I don't want to leave,
Or drift away."

(This is probably quite difficult... But here's a hing: The album is part of an important period in db's career)

That's Reverso.

But i think i don't know that song ... And Reverso can't help me

It is one of those, either you know or you don't, type of songs...

Here is more from the lyrics:
"Look at this - no second glances
Look at this - no value of
Look at this - just sun and steel
Look at this - then look at us

If there's someone in charge
Then listen to me
Don't say nothing's wrong
'Cause I've got a love
And she's afeared
You want to fight
But I don't want to leave
Or drift away"

And finally, it is post-"Heroes"

Yassassin

"I shot my spacegun
And boy, I really felt blue"

Umm, not sure... I'm guessing Hallo Spaceboy or I Took A Trip on a Gemini Spacecraft...

Yep, this one.

I suppose I should come forth with new lyrics now...

"Just wishing that I had just something you wore"

It's "Cactus" (and actually, it is a Pixies cover, but what the hell )

"I'm looking for a vehicle, I'm looking for a ride.
I'm looking for a party, I'm looking for a side.
I'm looking for the treason that I knew in '65."

1984

"It's safer than a strange land but I still care for myself
And I don't stand in my own light"

Word on the Wind (love that song!)

"A little piece of you,
the little peace in me... will die."

This is not America

"He speaks of senseless things
His script is you and me boys"

Time (Another amazing song!)

"Locator for the virgin King,
but I love you in your fuck-me pumps,
and your nimble dress that trails."

We Are the Dead

"Please don't tear this world asunder"
