Title: Guess the lyric - (how to pass the time until the next tour)
Post by: sak4 on August 30, 2010, 11:53:45 AM
On MK.com which I don't usually visit - they are running a 'guess the MK/DS lyric'
A couple of lines and you have to know the song

OK I must go and get on with my life now!

Keep the forum going

 ;)

OK, could be fun.
Have you already started with OK I must go and get on with my life now! or you were just saying that you should get on with your life? It does ring a faint bell but before I rack my brain I need to know  ;D

Why do you need a truffle dog ? To find the lyrics ?  ;)

Sweetsurrender,

I have no idea where you can listen to it. But if you google the line you will find the complete lyrics...
I know about that special verse but somebody around here will probably be able to tell you where to get it!  ;)

Oh, it's my turn again, isn't it....

Do i really have to say that it is from Money for nothing? Guess, everyone knows...

But how about this one:

"...what it is..."

Then it's of course "Sand of Nevada", which is from the best MK album of all times as you all of course know. Mark was full aware of the parallel lyrics I am sure, this is a sort of "coda", it closes the concept of the album. Can you follow me?

Lady luck's still a mystery
With her head on my shoulder
And I don't know why
I still want her to dance
I guess that's all history
What it is is a I'm older
And I'm still a fool
For a one-way romance


I heard it already during the first listen and fell in love with this album... Just read these lyrics. How great they are. Phantastic!
