This was John Hiatt - I don't even try.

But I am trying really hard to find a quote that any of you have heard of... I mean really, if I were posting lame power metal quotes it'd be understandable, but they actually get guessed!

OK here's another one....

<font color="yellow">Where’s there’s life,
There’s hope.
Everyday’s
A gift.
Wishes can
Come true.
Whistle while
You work.
So hard
All day.

To be like other girls
To fit in in this glittering world.
Don’t give me songs.
Don’t give me songs.

Give me something to sing about.
I need something to sing about.</font>

Since noone is getting it Il make it immensely easy:
<font color=aqua>
I get the same old dreams, same time every night
Fall to the ground and I wake up
So I get out of bed, put on my shoes, and in my head
Thoughts fly back to the break-up

These four walls are closing in
Look at the fix you've put me in

**************, **************
I'm outta my head, can't take it
Could I be wrong, but since you been gone
You cast the spell, so break it
Oooohhh - Whhooooaaa - Ooooohhh</font>

[The Hierophant]

Bloody hell. OK, the last <font color=orange>orange</font> one was Filter's Hey man nice shot. I figured that one was a shoe-in. Ah well.

Hmmm. Come to think of it, alot of the recent quotes have gone unguessed. Does anyone actually bother with this game anymore?

Well, just in case, here is yet another quote for <font color=orange>orange</font> that should hopefully be snatched up right away:

<font color=orange>alone...listless...breakfast table in an otherwise empty room
young girl...violence...center of her own attention
mother reads aloud, child tries to understand it
tries to make her proud
the shades go down, it's in her head
painted room...can't deny there's something wrong...</font>

Pearl Jam - daughter? I think that was the title of it, when I listened to it two days ago at a friend's place.

That's the one! [img]smile.gif[/img] You're up!

New <font color=orange>orange

Imagine a perfect beach
Without a mermaid
Imagine a perfect hideaway
Without a time

Ocean Soul

Imagine a perfect Eden
Without a friend without a serpent

Ocean Soul
Lonely Soul</font>

Everything other than <font color=orange>orange</font> and <font color=aqua>aqua</font> need reposting.

So anyway, that was Asian Dub Foundation with Rise to the Challenge. Next stop:
<font color=red>You could be my someone
you could be my scene
you know that i'll protect you
from all of the obscene
I wonder what your doing
imagine where you are
there's oceans in between us
but that's not very far</font>

Right, and that was "Life's a show" from the Buffy The Vampire Slayer musical Once More With Feeling. Bunch of culturally challenged barbarians.

Hiero, I am still bothering and would of course have gotten yours but I don't check the forums compulsively. And on that note, dplax, don't be so anal about the repost times mate. The forum is just having a slow time, and so is this thread, so we might as well allow for slightly longer repost times. Not everybody visits Ironworks daily or even every other day, you know?

Anyway, here's the new yellow one.

<font color="yellow">A broom is drearily sweeping
up the broken pieces of yesterday's life
Somewhere a queen is weeping
Somewhere a king has no wife
</font>

EDIT: Dplax, yours has got to be Nightwish, judging from the Ocean Soul part, but I don't know the song.

Yes I know. But the original deadline of three days had been passed for all those quotes by at least a day and for Dagoth's quote the time passed was 6 days. I'm just trying to keep the thread going.
