i have a friend who is a complete big head when it comes to music. she has challenged me to come up with single lines from songs to test her knowledge. so far i have 22 but they all seem really easy to me (i know i put them together but they still seem easy) anybody wanna have a go? or even just a look to see what you think? they are mostly from the 80's with a couple of oldies thrown in to confuse her ;)

1. you know i love ya, even when you don't try.

2. i'm not too sure 'bout how ya feel, so i'd rather go at my own pace.

3. i should have known, it was in your eyes, that you were getting tired of waiting.

4. never knew i'd ever be standing alone and outside with no-one to love.

5. it seems that everything is changing, cos i can tell the way you're treating me.

6. i wandered out in the world for years while you just stayed in your room.

7. mama turned on the front porch light, said come in darling, thats enough for tonight.

8. so whats the point of robbery if nothing is worth taking?

9. i'd give the world right now on a silver platter, but what would it matter?

10. so you say that you'll never love another, tired of playing games and thats the reason why.

11. yes we discovered we were truly lovers, magic from the very start.

12. those were the times we had, sharing the joy that we thought would last.

13. every man deserves a good woman and i want you to be my wife.

14. either up your nose or through your vein, with nothing to gain except killing your brain.

15. lets not keep it hanging on, if the fire's out we should both be gone.

16. at long last love has arrived and i thank god i'm alive.

17. i'd like to know that your love, is a love i can be sure of.

18. walk along these same old lonely streets, trying to find, find a future.

19. oh but it rings and i rise, wipe the sleep out of my eyes.

20. don't put your head on my shoulder, take me in a river of tears.

21. so you're in love, i say what of it?

22. driven from the main land to the heart of the caribbean.

moby, i had the same problem when doing somebody elses lyric quiz ;) between me and the friend this one is for we got most of them. the ones we were stuck on were: "strangled by the wishes of mater" and "dont tel me that you think it's green, me, i know it's red." in the end we gave up. then about 4 months later i was sitting up stairs on a bus when the first one popped into my head, i clapped my hands and said YES! quite loudly :blush: whoops :lol: by the time i got home i had the other one too :thumbs:
