HELP! I'VE GOT A SONG STUCK IN MY HEAD AND CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHO DOES IT!

'I want to push you around, then I will, then I will'
That's Matchbox 20, the song is called "Push" - I like that one! You might be interested in http://findmeatune.com/ ?
 
LOL I was just coming her to say that a friend found it for me. She did exactly what I did, but put lyric after the lyrics instead of before. :rolleyes: Fucking google.

'I want to push you around, then I will, then I will'

Oh, that's "Push" by Matchbox20 from their "Someone like you" album

I remember that one.
 
Ok this is the one I've been humming all morning:

she's a wicked girl
worse than all the world
a mystery lies in her
she spends her days
in a violent rage
try as i might, i love her
everytime the tears are dry
the story goes
what's left behind
shivers like a leaf
tossed and turned and gentle
it's not hard to believe
the girlshapedlovedrug messes with my mind
(don't, don't) don't ask me why
the girlshapedlovedrug messes with your mind

she likes to fight
the whole world binds her eyes
yours truely would die for her
the growing pains
dissolve in lemonade
the sweetness flies to her
everytime her temper flames
the storm will blow
what's left so rare
a fragment of the girl
soft and sentimental
the side she tries not to share
the girlshapedlovedrug messes with my head
(don't, don't) don't ask me why
the girlshapedlovedrug messes with your mind
(don't, don't) don't ask me why
the girlshapedlovedrug messes with my mind

when the song is sung
don't let it call your opinion
that girl's my life
i tell you everytime
my tears run dry
the moment's long
and we design
my feelings for the girl
i could not be without her
i would still surely find
the girlshapedlovedrug messes with my head
(don't, don't) don't ask me why
the girlshapedlovedrug messes with my mind
(don't, don't) don't ask me why
the girlshapedlovedrug messes with your mind
(don't, don't) don't ask me why
the girlshapedlovedrug messes with my mind

"Talk", Coldplay

Oh brother I can't, I can't get through
I've been trying hard to reach you, cause I don't know what to do
Oh brother I can't believe it's true
I'm so scared about the future and I wanna talk to you
Oh I wanna talk to you
You can take a picture of something you see
In the future where will I be?
You can climb a ladder up to the sun
Or write a song nobody has sung
Or do something that's never been done

Are you lost or incomplete?
Do you feel like a puzzle, you can't find your missing piece?
Tell me how do you feel?
Well I feel like they're talking in a language I don't speak
And they're talking it to me

So you take a picture of something you see
In the future where will I be?
You can climb a ladder up to the sun
Or a write a song nobody has sung
Or do something that's never been done
Do something that's never been done

So you don't know were you're going, and you wanna talk
And you feel like you're going where you've been before
You tell anyone who'll listen but you feel ignored
Nothing's really making any sense at all
Let's talk, let's ta-a-alk
Let's talk, let's ta-a-alk
 
Polymorph your mother
Firebomb your dad

My son has been either playing the album or acutally playing the music himself on his guitar all week. So now it's totally stuck in my head!!

{Jack & Meg:}
Rag & Bone!
Rag & Bone!
Rag & Bone!
Rag & Bone!

{Jack:}
Meg, look at this place
This place looks like a mansion!
It's like a mansion, look at all this stuff!
Look, I see something over there.

We got you here selling rag and bone
Bring out your junk and we'll give it a home
A broken trumpet or a telephone
Ah, come on, come on, come on
Come and give it to me

Yeah!

Come on, come on, come on
Come on and give it to me

Rag & Bone!
Rag & B one!

Ah, come on, come on, come on
Come on and give it to me

Oh looking pretty
Your pretty little Rags & Bones

{Jack:} Well, look at all this, you don't want it?

{Meg:} What is that?

{Jack:}
You sure you don't want it? Take it.
They're just things you don't want.
I can use 'em.
Meg can use 'em
We can do something with 'em
We'll make something out of 'em
Make some money out of 'em at least.

Hey if you ain't gonna use it, just give it to us
We'll give it a home

Well, I hope you got something shoddy for me
Everybody got a Christmas tree
I got you a pot with a toilet seat
Ah, jump up, jump up, jump up
Come on and give it to me

Rag & Bone!

We wanna get it Granny, while it's hot
You think it's trash Granny, but it's not
Oh, we'll be taking whatever you got
Ah, give up, give up, give up
Come on and give it to me

Woo!

Oh looking pretty
Your pretty little Rags & Bones

{Meg:} I saw some stuff in here, now are you gonna give it to us?

{Jack:} Ah, Meg, don't be rude

{Meg:} Why not?

{Jack:}
They might need it.
And if you don't want it, we'll take it
And if you don't wanna give it to us,
We'll keep walking by
We'll keep going we're not tired
But, got plenty of places to go
Lots of homes we ain't been to yet
The west side
The south-west side
Middle east
Rich house
Dog house
Outhouse
Old folks' house
House for unwed mothers
Halfway homes
Catacombs
Twilight Zones
Looking for techniques, turntables to gramophones
So take a last lick of your ice-cream cones
And lock up what you still wanna own
But please be kind
And don't rewind

Oh looking pretty
Your pretty little Rags & Bones
Your pretty little Rags & Bones

Ah, jump up, jump up, jump up
Come on and give it to me

Your pretty little Rags & Bones

{Jack & Meg:}
Ah, come on, come on, come on
Come on and give it to us!

{Jack:}
Yeah!
Yeah, yeah!
Oh yeah!
Yeah!

{Meg:} Yeah!

{Jack & Meg, x13:} Yeah...

C'mon...you know it's driving you crazy, and you know it's better if someone else shares the pain! How much you want to share - the whole thing, or just the part in your head - is up to you, and you decide if you want to identify the song or not. Have fun!



Here's mine:

'I'd like to walk you through a field of wild flowers
I'd still like to check for ticks'
 
"f**k was i"
jenny owen youngs

Love grows in me like a tumor,
parasites bent on devouring its host.
I'm developing my sense of humor,
till I can laugh at my heart between your teeth,
till I can laugh at my face beneath your feet.

chorus (what the fuck was i thinking?)

Skillet on the stove is such a temptation,
maybe I'll be the lucky one that doesnt get burned.
What the fuck was I thinking?

Love plows through me like a dozer,
I've got more give than a bale of hay,
and there's always a big mess left over.
What did you do?
What did you say?

Skillet on the stove is such a temptation,
maybe I'll be the special one that doesnt get burned.
What the fuck was I thinking?

Love tears me up like a demon.
Opens the wounds and fills them with lead,
and I'm having some trouble just breathing.
If we werent such good friends I think that I'd hate you.
If we weren't such good friends I'd wish you were dead

Oh it's so embarrasing
I'm this awkward and uncomprable thing,
and I'm running out of places to hide

Bold as Love

anger he smiles towering in shiny metallic purple armor
queen jealousy, envy waits behind him
her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground
blue are the life-going waters taken for granted
they quietly understand
the once happy turquoise armies lay opposite ready
but wonder why the fight is on

but they're all bold as love
yeah, they're all bold as love
they're all bold as love
just ask the axis

my red is so confident that he flashes
trophies of war and ribbons of euphoria
orange is young, full of daring
but very unsteady for the first go around
my yellow in this case is not so mellow
in fact i'm trying to say it's frightened like me
and all these emotions of mine keep holding me from
giving my life to a rainbow like you

i'm bold, bold as love
yeah i'm bold, bold as love
i'm bold, bold as love
just ask the axis
yeah he knows, he knows everything
i'm bold, bold as love
 
You Only Live Twice or so it seems,
One life for yourself and one for your dreams.
You drift through the years and life seems tame,
Till one dream appears and love is its name.

And love is a stranger who'll beckon you on,
Don't think of the danger or the stranger is gone.

This dream is for you, so pay the price.
Make one dream come true, you only live twice.

And love is a stranger who'll beckon you on,
Don't think of the danger or the stranger is gone.

This dream is for you, so pay the price.
Make one dream come true, you only live twice.
 
No time to search the world around
Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around
 
John Prine: Some Humans ain't Human

Mmmm Mmmm
Mmmm Mmmm
Mmmm Mmmm
Mmmm Mmmm

Some humans ain't human
Some people ain't kind
You open up their hearts
And here's what you'll find
A few frozen pizzas
Some ice cubes with hair
A broken Popsicle
You don't want to go there

Some humans ain't human
Though they walk like we do
They live and they breathe
Just to turn the old screw
They screw you when you're sleeping
They try to screw you blind
Some humans ain't human
Some people ain't kind

You might go to church
And sit down in a pew
Those humans who ain't human
Could be sittin' right next to you
They talk about your family
They talk about your clothes
When they don't know their own ass
From their own elbows

Jealousy and stupidity
Don't equal harmony
Jealousy and stupidity
Don't equal harmony

Mmmm Mmmm
Mmmm Mmmm
Mmmm Mmmm
Mmmm Mmmm

Spoken:
Have you ever noticed
When you're feeling really good
There's always a pigeon
That'll come shit on your hood

Or you're feeling your freedom
And the world's off your back
Some cowboy from Texas
Starts his own war in Iraq

Some humans ain't human
Some people ain't kind
They lie through their teeth
With their head up their behind
You open up their hearts
And here's what you'll find
Some humans ain't human
Some people ain't kind

Mmmm Mmmm
Mmmm Mmmm
Mmmm Mmmm
Mmmm Mmmm
Mmmm Mmmm
Mmmm Mmmm
 
For some reason, they've been playing this song by INXS on the radio quite frequently over the past few days and I can't seem to shake it from my mind. So I just looked it up on Youtube and found a cool live version that goes into a second song, Mediate. Nice video.

"Need You Tonight"

All you got is this moment
Twenty-first century's yesterday
You can care all you want
Everybody does yeah that's okay

So slide over here
And give me a moment
Your moves are so raw
I've got to let you know
I've got to let you know
You're one of my kind

I need you tonight
'Cause I'm not sleeping
There's something about you girl
That makes me sweat

How do you feel
I'm lonely
What do you think
Can't take it all
Whatcha gonna do
Gonna live my life
 
(If you go looking for hot water
Don't act shocked when you get
Burned a little bit)

If you really want some hot water
I can help you find it

Oh
Oh
Ah yeah

Well if they catch me around
You're playing rock the boat
I'm gonna catch hell

And if you're throwing your voice
In bed singing a note
I'm gonna catch hell
I know it

Yes, alright
Try and catch me
Oh yeah

Tricky, tricky
Yeah

Oh
Oh

If you're getting chick (?)
Lying to yourself
You're gonna catch hell

And if you're testing God
Lying to his face
You're gonna catch hell
C'mon

Hey
That's it
They're gonna catch you
Ha, they're gonna catch you

(Easy)

Catch Hell Blues ~ White Stripes

Gawds, can you tell he's been playing it a lot at home?
 
King of Pain - The Police

Theres a little black spot on the sun today
Its the same old thing as yesterday
Theres a black hat caught in a high tree top
Theres a flag pole rag and the wind wont stop

I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running round my brain
I guess Im always hoping that youll end this reign
But its my destiny to be the king of pain

Theres a little black spot on the sun today
Thats my soul up there
Its the same old thing as yesterday
Thats my soul up there
Theres a black hat caught in a high tree top
Thats my soul up there
Theres a flag pole rag and the wind wont stop
Thats my soul up there

I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running round my brain
I guess Im always hoping that youll end this reign
But its my destiny to be the king of pain

Theres a fossil thats trapped in a high cliff wall
Thats my soul up there
Theres a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall
Thats my soul up there
Theres a blue whale beached by a springtides ebb
Thats my soul up there
Theres a butterfly trapped in a spiders web
Thats my soul up there

I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running round my brain
I guess Im always hoping that youll end this reign
But its my destiny to be the king of pain

Theres a king on a throne with his eyes torn out
Theres a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt
Thers a rich man sleeping on a golden bed
Theres a skeleton choking on a crust of bread

King of pain

Theres a red fox thorn by a huntsmans pack
Thats my soul up there
Theres a black winged gull with a broken back
Thats my soul up there
Theres a little black spot on the sun today
Its the same old thing as yesterday

I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running round my brain
I guess Im always hoping that youll end this reign
But its my destiny to be the king of pain

King of pain
King of pain
King of pain
Ill always be king of pain
Ill always be king of pain
Ill always be king of pain...
 
Just like a star across my sky,
Just like an angel off the page,
You have appeared to my life,
Feel like I'll never be the same,
Just like a song in my heart,
Just like oil on my hands,
Honour to love you

Still I wonder why it is,
I don't argue like this,
With anyone but you,
We do it all the time,
Blowing out my mind,

You've got this look I can't describe,
You make me feel like I'm alive,
When everything else is au fait,
Without a doubt you're on my side,
Heaven has been away too long,
Can't find the words to write this song,
Oh...
Your love,
 
I don't know the name of the song or who sings it..but it starts out "To the left, to the left". Something about all her ex-boyfriend's stuff is on the left side of the closet.

Anytime someone says something about turning to the left or the book is on the left side of the shelf, etc. I hear "To the left, to the left" :rolleyes:
 
Damn this song has been in my head all day

Amy Winehouse My tears dry on their own

Okay, this has probably been posted because there seem to be a lot of Sarah fans but here goes (I play this in the car and drive around and cry, I'm a twit):

Sweet Surrender by Sarah McLachlan

It doesn’t mean much
It doesn’t mean anything at all
The life I’ve left behind me
Is a cold room
I’ve crossed the last line
From where I can’t return
Where every step I took in faith
Betrayed me
And led me from my home
And sweet
Sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give
You take me in
No questions asked
You strip away the ugliness
That surrounds me
Are you an angel
Am I already that gone
I only hope
That I won’t disappoint you
When I’m down here
On my knees
And sweet
Sweet
Sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give
Sweet
Sweet
Sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give
And I don’t understand
By the touch of your hand
I would be the one to fall
I miss the little things
I miss everything (about you)
It doesn’t mean much
It doesn’t mean anything at all
The life I left behind me
Is a cold room
And sweet
Sweet
Sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give
 
Crap, can you tell I was in my 20s in the 1990s? Here is the chorus from Bitch by Meredith Brooks:

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way

So take me as I am
This may mean
You'll have to be a stronger man
Rest assured that
When I start to make you nervous
And I'm going to extremes
Tomorrow I will change
And today won't mean a thing
