I'm gonna kill the last one I posted................True Friends by Shannon Curfman. She was 14 when she recorded that song. It is off her CD "Loud Guitars Big Suspicions". If you like Kenny Wayne Shepherd or Jonny Lang you'd like her. Next....................

Here I'll post one...

Strolling down the highway with my shoes in my hand
I don't talk much I'm a quiet man
Beauty and silence both run deep
And running like crazy while you are asleep

Chorus:
You got news for me, I got nothing for you
Don't pin your blues on me
Just go ahead and do whatever you wish to

Last Monday night I saw a fight
Between Wednesday and Thursday over Saturday night
Tuesday asked me what was going on I said,
"Sunday's in the meadow and Friday's in the corn."

Repeat Chorus:

Hocus-pocus, Maladjusted
Don't you think my tears get rusted
Steady losing means you ain't using
What you really think is right

Repeat Chorus:

Oodles of light what a beautiful sight
Both of God's eyes are shining tonight
Rays and beams of incredible dreams
And I am a quiet man.

Oodles of light what a beautiful sight
Both of God's eyes are shining tonight
Rays and beams of incredible dreams
And I am a quiet man.

Oodles of light what a beautiful sight
Both of God's eyes are shining tonight
Rays and beams of incredible dreams
And I am a quiet man.

I found this artist in my dad's old record collection, heard him on a $10 record player, been a huge fan since of his early music!

63galaxie, I have no clue about the song, but I absolutely love your avatar. Wish You Were Here is a great album, as well as my all time favorite song.

Regional, short-lived. I will post a link if no-one finds it.
------------------------------

You, you're looking for something new.
Don't know what you hope to find.
And you, you don't have the nerve to say.
You're getting carried away.

You'll use it, abuse it, confuse it.
Don't you know where that will lead.
Just face it, replace it, erase it.

The cost of the damage you're going to pay.
And that smile on your face is just one other way.
I know, I know.

You'll keep playing...
On and on. And on and on. And on and on.
But you'll never find your way.
On and on. And on and on. And on and on.
Won't you ever find your way.

You, you think you can stop the pain.
But your efforts are in vain.
And you, you think it can work this time.
Still the same old line.

You'll use it, abuse it, confuse it.
Don't you know where that will lead.
Just face it, replace it, erase it.
The cost of the damage you're going to pay.
And that smile on your face is just one other way.
I know, I know.

You'll keep playing...
On and on. And on and on. And on and on.
But you'll never find your way.
On and on. And on and on. And on and on.
Won't you ever.

You, you think you can stop the pain.
But your efforts are in vain.
And you, you think it can work this time.

On and on. And on and on. And on and on.
But you'll never find your way.

You'll keep playing
On and on. And on and on. And on and on.
But you keep on playing
On and on. And on and on. And on and on.
And on and on. And on.

Were they late 80's/early 90's? If they are new, they missed the boat by about 15 years!

Slight change, name that tune in 2 words :

"and contagious"

They are from the late '80's. The CD this is from was self-released in 1989.
They chose to not be like every other mid-late '80's band and didn't have big hair and trowel on make-up. Which means they never got a record contract.
They still do an occasional "reunion" type show in North New Jersey where they are from.
You can check out their site through the link I provided and their CD's are available.

Everybody knows where you go when the sun goes down.
I think you only live to see the lights of town.
I wasted my time when I would try, try, try.
When the lights have lost their glow, you're gonna cry, cry, cry.

I lie awake at night and wait 'til you come in.
You stay a little while and then you're gone again.
Every question that I ask, I get a lie, lie, lie.
For every lie you tell, you're gonna cry, cry, cry.
You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll cry alone,
When everyone's forgotten and you're left on your own.
You're gonna cry, cry, cry.

Soon your sugar-daddies will all be gone.
You'll wake up some cold day and find you're alone.
You'll call to me but I'm gonna tell you: "Bye, bye, bye,"
When I turn around and walk away, you'll cry, cry, cry,

When your fickle little love gets old, no one will care for you.
You'll come back to me for a little love that's true.
I'll tell you no and you gonna ask me why, why, why?
When I remind you of all of this, you'll cry, cry, cry.

You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll cry alone,
When everyone's forgotten and you're left on your own.
You're gonna cry, cry, cry.

You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll want me there,
It'll hurt when you think of the fool you've been.
You're gonna cry, cry, cry.

Johnny Cash - Cry Cry Cry

------------------------------------

I have a problem that I cannot explain,
I have no reason why it should have been so plain,
Have no questions but I sure have excuse,
I lack the reason why I should be so confused,

I know, how I feel when I'm around you,
I don't know, how I feel when I'm around you,
Around you,

Left a message but it ain't a bit of use,
I have the pictures, the wild might be the deuce,
Today you called, you saw me, you explained,
Playing the show and running down the plane,

I know, how I feel when I'm around you,
I don't know, how I feel when I'm around you,
I know, how I feel when I'm around you,
I don't know, how I feel when I'm around you,
Around you, Around you, Around you...

SOAD... not sure what song (asked brother :P )

----------------------------------------------------------

i finally found a job in a paper
movin' barrels at a chemical plant
there's shiny-looking dust on my fingers
goin' up my nose and into my lungs
it's the kepone poisoning-minamata
kepone poisoning-minamata
at the grimy kepone factory
turning people into bonzai trees
now i've got these splitting headaches
i can't quite get it up no more
i can't sleep and it's driving me crazy
i shake all day and i'm seeing double
kepone poisoning-minamata
kepone poisoning-minamata
gonna go down your big metal building
gonna slam right through your bright metal door
gonna grab you by your sta-prest collar
and ram some kepone down your throat
the lawyer says 'that's the breaks,
kid gonna gnarl and rot the rest of your life
if you don't sue, we'll give you a trans-am...'
that i'll never drive cos i shake all the time
'cause of the kepone poisoning minamata
at the grimy kepone factory

I'm through with standing in line
to clubs we'll never get in
It's like the bottom of the ninth
and I'm never gonna win
This life hasn't turned out
quite the way I want it to be

(Tell me what you want)

I want a brand new house
on an episode of Cribs
And a bathroom I can play baseball in
And a king size tub big enough
for ten plus me

(Tell me what you need)

I'll need a credit card that's got no limit
And a big black jet with a bedroom in it
Gonna join the mile high club
At thirty-seven thousand feet

(Been there done that)

I want a new tour bus full of old guitars
My own star on Hollywood Boulevard
Somewhere between Cher and
James Dean is fine for me

(So how ya gonna do it?)

I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
I'd even cut my hair and change my name

[CHORUS]
'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the movie stars
Every good gold digger's
Gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny
With her bleach blond hair

Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

I wanna be great like Elvis without the tassels
Hire eight body guards that love to beat up donkey doughnuts
Sign a couple autographs
So I can eat my meals for free

(I'll have a quesadilla on the house)

I'm gonna dress my hiney
with the latest fashion
Get a front door key to the Playboy mansion
Gonna date a centerfold that loves to
blow my money for me

(So how ya gonna do it?)

I'm gonna trade this life
For fortune and fame
I'd even cut my hair
And change my name

'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the movie stars
Every good gold digger's
Gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny
With her bleach blond hair
And we'll hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary and
today's who's who
They'll get you anything
with that evil smile
Everybody's got a
drug dealer on speed dial
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

I'm gonna sing those songs
that offend the censors
Gonna pop my pills
from a pez dispenser
Get washed-up singers writing all my songs
Lip sync em every night so I don't get 'em wrong

Well we all just wanna be big rockstars
And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the movie stars
Every good gold digger's
Gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny
With her bleach blond hair
And we'll hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary and
today's who's who
They'll get you anything
with that evil smile
Everybody's got a
drug dealer on speed dial
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

After a nine month hiatus.............


If I could reach the stars,
Pull one down for you,
Shine it on your heart
So you could see the truth:
That this love I have inside
Is everything it seems.
But for now I find
It's only in my dreams.

If I could change the world,
I would be the sunlight in your universe.
You would think my love was really something good,
Baby if I could change the world.

And if I could be king,
Even for a day,
I'd take you as my queen;
I'd have it no other way.
And our love would rule
This kingdom we had made.
Till then I'd be a fool,
Wishing for the day...

That I can change the world,
I would be the sunlight in your universe.
You would think my love was really something good,
Baby if I could change the world.
Baby if I could change the world.

If I could change the world,
I would be the sunlight in your universe.
You would think my love was really something good,
Baby if I could change the world.
Baby if I could change the world.
Baby if I could change the world.

Change the World - Clapton

----------------------------------------

Unsealed on a porch
a letter sat
Then you said
I wanna leave it again

Once I saw him
on a beach of weathered sand
And on the sand
I wanna leave it again, yeah

On a weekend
on a visit on her way, yeah
And they called and I said
and I want what I said
And then I call out again

And the reason
oughta leave her calm, I know
I said I know what I wear
not a boxer or the bag, ah yeah

Chorus:

Can you see them out on the porch, yeah
but they don't wave
I see them 'round the front way, yeah
and I know and I know
I don't wanna stay . . .

--------------------------------------

The rest is just the chorus going on and fading out . . . pretty sure the words are right. Though, if you know the song, you know it's not all that easy to understand them.

__________________________________________________ ___________
Make a hole with a gun perpendicular
To the name of this town in a desk-top globe
Exit wound in a foreign nation
Showing the home of the one this was written for
My apartment looks upside down from there
Water spirals the wrong way out the sink
And her voice is a backwards record
It’s like a whirlpool and it never ends

Ana ng and I are getting old
And we still haven’t walked in the glow of each other’s majestic presence
Listen ana hear my words
They’re the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you

All alone at the ’64 world’s fair
Eighty dolls yelling "small girl after all"
Who was at the dupont pavilion?
Why was the bench still warm? who had been there?
Or the time when the storm tangled up the wire
To the horn on the pole at the bus depot
And in the back of the edge of hearing
These are the words the voice was repeating:

Ana ng and I are getting old
And we still haven’t walked in the glow of each other’s majestic presence
Listen ana hear my words
They’re the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you

When I was driving once I saw this painted on a bridge:
"i don’t want the world, I just want your half"

They don’t need me here, and I know you’re there (don’t need me)
Where the world goes by like the humid air (world goes by)
And it sticks like a broken record
Everything sticks like a broken record
Everything sticks until it goes away (it goes home)
And the truth is, we don’t know anything (don’t know)

Ana ng and I are getting old
And we still haven’t walked in the glow of each other’s majestic presence
Listen ana hear my words
They’re the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you

Ana ng and I are getting old
And we still haven’t walked in the glow of each other’s majestic presence
Listen ana hear my words
They’re the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you

Ana ng and I are getting old
And we still haven’t walked in the glow of each other’s majestic presence
Listen ana hear my words
They’re the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you

youre so unoriginal.
Anna Ng by they might be giants.

I read the news today oh boy
About a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph
He blew his mind out in a car
He didn't notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen his face before
Nobody was really sure
If he was from the House of Lords.

I saw a film today oh boy
The English Army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
but I just had to look
Having read the book.
I'd love to turn you on

Woke up, fell out of bed,
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup,
And looking up I noticed I was late.
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke,
Somebody spoke and I went into a dream

I read the news today oh boy
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall.
I'd love to turn you on
