The New Song Lyric Quote Thread - read the rules before playing

Originally posted by Ilander: Is white Eminem? The big, major song that came out of Eight Mile? I can't remember the name, though...

THe main song out of the album was Lose Yourself. Actually, I think it was another song on the album:
Eminem -- Eight Mile Road. But if that's the right answerr, Ilander you take it, cause you were darn close (you said "Eminem" and "Eight Mile").

Right then, here come some confirmations. Thanks for your patience everyone. I'll also edit the rules as Mel suggested.

<font color=yellow>Yellow goes to Melusine
<font color=red>Red goes to Melusine
<font color=orange>Orange goes to Saturos
<font color=green>Green gies to DBear
<font color=white>White goes to Ilander
</font></font></font></font></font>

[Melusine]

Alright then, I've tried to make these easy...

<font color="yellow">Homos roaming the streets in packs
Queer bashers with tyre-jacks
Lesbian counter-attacks
That stuff is for the big cities
Our town is very pretty
We have a pretty little square
We have a woman for a mayor
Our policy is firm but fair
</font>


<font color="red">If I say I don't need anyone
I can say these things to you
'Cause I can turn on anyone
Just like I turned on you
I got a tongue like a razor
A sweet switchblade knife
And I can do you favors
But then you'll do whatever I like
</font>

[Melusine]

Note: I might not be here until tomorrow, but I will look at this thread tomorrow evening at the very latest.

[Ilander]

ALL RIGHT!!! Here goes!
<font color=white>
'No reason to get excited'
The thief he kindly spoke
'There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke
But you and I, we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now,
The hour is getting late' </font>

Oh, and there are two artists, either one of which is acceptable...extra props if you name both, though!

Oh, and thanks TL!

[Saturos]

My input:

<font color=orange>He had white horses
And ladies by the score
All dressed in satin
And waiting by the door</font>

[DBear]

OK, here's mine


<font color=green>
Quarter to four & the hours keep draggin' tonight
Nothing is wrong but you feel
that your life ain't quite right
All the plans you made those years ago
Looking back on that dusty road
and the fading signs all read "oblivion"</font>

and orange is <font color=orange> Emerson, Lake and Palmer--Lucky Man </font>

Well, that's definately Jimi Hendrix's 'All Along the Watchtower'. But as far as I know he's the only lyric author...

hmmm, seems you beat me to it Hiero. Great song! I am a big fan of Hendrix, just got one of his guitar books over the summer.

Is the other one U2?
