FabSwingers.com forum: Favourite line from a song

My teenage years I was one of many with highs and lows and mixed emotions. The sound of silence is one song that always brings me back to those years with the opening line. Love this song

somewhere

Ring the bells that still can ring

Forget your perfect offering

There is a crack, a crack in everything

That's how the light gets in

Had the absolute joy and pleasure of working at most of Leonard Cohen's concerts in Ireland

I came to his songs very very late in my life but they mean a lot to me

Oh yes I am wise

But it's wisdom born of pain

Yes, I've paid the price

But look how much I gained

If I have to, I can do anything

I am strong (strong)

I am invincible (invincible)

where the wild roses grow

Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life

The most interesting people I know

Didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives

Some of the most interesting 40-year-olds I know still don't

Get plenty of calcium

Be kind to your knees

You'll miss them when they're gone.

Music is highly therapeutic! I always associate certain music with certain times of my life...

Love the vulnerability of Pink song "glitter in the air" the whole song is epic.. starts with "have you ever fed a lover with just your hand? Other lines are "Have you ever been touched so gently you had to cry? Have you ever invited a stranger to come inside?

The rich declare themselves poor

And most of us are not sure

If we have too much

But we'll take our chances

Cos God's stopped keeping score

I guess somewhere along the way

He must have let us all out to play

Turned his back, and all God's children crept out the back door

I love thunder Road

Don't run back inside

Darling, you know just what I'm here for

So you're scared, and you're thinking

That maybe we ain't that young anymore

Show a little faith, there's magic in the night

You ain't a beauty, but, hey, you're alright

Oh, and that's alright with me

Absolutely love that song. Pretty much all great lines.

"There were ghosts in the eyes of all the boys you sent away

They haunt this dusty beach road

In the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets

They scream your name at night in the street

Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet

And in the lonely cool before dawn

You hear their engines roaring on

But when you get to the porch they're gone on the wind

So Mary, climb in

It's a town full of losers

And I'm pulling out of here to win"

Speaking of Ian Brown. I love FEAR. The first letter of every work in each line spells out "fear"

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful

A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical

And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily

Oh joyfully, playfully watching me

But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible

Logical, oh responsible, practical

And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable

Oh clinical, oh intellectual, cynical....

Ok,a bit more than a line

Favourite lyrics would be " visions of Johanna" - from Bob Dylan's sixth studio album, blonde on blond.

Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?

We sit here stranded, though we're all doin' our best to deny it

And Louise holds a handful of rain, temptin' you to defy it

Lights flicker from the opposite loft

In this room the heat pipes just cough

The country music station plays soft

But there's nothing, really nothing to turn off

Just Louise and her lover so entwined

And these visions of Johanna that conquer my mind

In the empty lot where the ladies play blindman's bluff with the key chain

And the all-night girls they whisper of escapades out on the "D" train

We can hear the night watchman click his flashlight

Ask himself if it's him or them that's insane

Louise, she's all right, she's just near

She's delicate and seems like the mirror

But she just makes it all too concise and too clear

That Johanna's not here

The ghost of 'lectricity howls in the bones of her face

Where these visions of Johanna have now taken my place

Now, little boy lost, he takes himself so seriously

He brags of his misery, he likes to live dangerously

And when bringing her name up

He speaks of a farewell kiss to me

He's sure got a lotta gall to be so useless and all

Muttering small talk at the wall while I'm in the hall

How can I explain?

It's so hard to get on

And these visions of Johanna, they kept me up past the dawn

Inside the museums, infinity goes up on trial

Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while

But Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues

You can tell by the way she smiles

See the primitive wallflower freeze

When the jelly-faced women all sneeze

Hear the one with the mustache say, "Jeez, I can't find my knees"

Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule

But these visions of Johanna, they make it all seem so cruel

The peddler now speaks to the countess who's pretending to care for him

Sayin', "Name me someone that's not a parasite and I'll go out and say a prayer for him"

But like Louise always says

"Ya can't look at much, can ya man?"

As she, herself, prepares for him

And Madonna, she still has not showed

We see this empty cage now corrode

Where her cape of the stage once had flowed

The fiddler, he now steps to the road

He writes ev'rything's been returned which was owed

On the back of the fish truck that loads

While my conscience explodes

The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain

And these visions of Johanna are now all that remain

Let me ask you this one question, was it really such a sin,

To love too much, to be closer than touch when there was no way we could win.
