Two Of Us. Love that song.

When I looked up your other lyric I found the song "admiral halsey". I've never heard of it, but that's what I found. But then, I've never heard of "uncle albert" either. I suck.

I don't know that one BG, speedy you gotta know Uncle Albert,

The one where Paul sings in that really high voice something like
Little, little see the gypsy get around, get your feet up off the ground, little little get around.
But really the "hands across the water, water, hands across the sky" doesn't ring any bells

Is that continued from the last quote?
If so, I still don't know it, or BG's either.
I think I suck.

No no, this is a new Beatles quote. You can forget about the last qoute. It's Nirvana. Old Nirvana, from 'Bleach'. The song is Paper Cuts. My new quote is from the White Album. That should narrow it down some. It's a Lennon number.

alright, a little more. this leads right to the chorus which contains the title of the song, so I can go no futher.

Hey, I was gonna name it...I love that song...it's beautiful. I enjoy playing it. I think the White Album sucks, though. Here:

I'm just going to pretend this never happened. We shall never speak of it again. But you didn't know Uncle Albert which I love, so there. I'm going to give a super easy rock line,

I'm the epitome of public enemy.

This one is a bit tricky because it could actually come from 2 songs, anyone?

That's good Alex but do you know the song that originally used that lyric?

I don't know yours, but then again I don't seem to know any of them except Tears for Fears way back and that's really pretty lame. You'll have to give me more of the line.

This took me a couple of minutes. Now I feel sort-of bad for selling this album a few years back.

Baby Bitch - Ween

Ok, try this:

"
I got some certain, special feelings for you
Don't know if they're good or bad
I just might give you a call
But everything seems to be up in the air at this time
"

The last line is a dead give-away. It is repeated about 30 times throughout the song.

"Ambiguity Song," by Camper Van Beethoven.

I can't think of a good lyric right now. Someone else can give one, if they'd like.

I still don't know BG,
but if anyone is curious (which I doubt)"I'm the epitome of Public Enemy" actually was a lyric in a Public Enemy song. I can't remember if it was Don't Believe the Hype or not. I can't remember much of anything anymore, I gotta lay off the pot. I use to have a steel trap and now its more of a sieve. Anyways, Public Enemy is or was cool, I used to listen to lots of it back in the day. Not quite Frank Black though.

Carolyn - I had no idea that the lyric was borrowed from another song....so, what song is it from??

Obfuscate - you got it. and shame on you for selling that album. I actually just bought it a couple of weeks ago (never got into it before, in its 'heyday' or whatever...) and I am really enjoying the shit out of it. Ween are brilliant. and incidentally, completely insane, which appeals to me greatly.

Duh. Must have been struck with temporary blindness when I was posting last.

Excuse my retardedness (:

I don't like Teenager or White Album as much as the others because when I weigh in the good songs versus the bad songs, it comes out pretty even. When I weigh the artists other albums, there's rarely a song I don't like. This is why I don't like long albums...there's too many not-so-hot songs on them. They should have just picked the best 15 and put out the album.

So, in that case, which songs from Teenager do you wish were taken off and that you had NEVER HEARD.

Oh Jim... I could argue for days. Let me just say this: I think Frank picked the best 22 songs he had, and Teenager is the result. I love that entire record, cover to cover. I can say pretty much the same for the white album. I many not listen to Revolution #9 every time, but I love that whole record. Both are masterpieces, and neither are too long. I love long records! The only problem with DW and SMYT is they're too short! (If one could actually find a probelm with either of these records).

Speedy, just to see if you did it or not, how about this one, fill in the blanks:

We're so sorry __________,
but we haven't done a bloody thing all day.
We're so sorry ____________,
but the kettle's on the boil and we're so easily led astray.

Don't feel inadequate. You said you were going to download Uncle Albert. Obviously your promises mean nothing. Anyways, thats what the lyrics were from.

I still don't know BG's but I'm going to stick with Weezer to make it easy, it took me a long time to figure this out and its probably totally wrong but,
