Guess the song

[Mike]

Hmm. I think it's Pink Floyd...

I'll give you an easier one:

Oh, a storm is threat'ning
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away

War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away

It's Gimme Shelter by the Rolling Stones
Here's one for ya:
mama told me
when I was young

[Mike]

Simple Man by Lynard Skynrd (copied by Shinedown)

It starts with one thing
I don't know why
It doesn't even matter
how hard you try

Keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme
to explain all in due time

All I know

Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day

...

In The End by Linkin Park
There's a place I like to hide
A doorway that I run through in the night

[Mike]

Hmm. I don't think I've ever heard that song... I ahve no idea what it is.


And if I say to you tomorrow.
Take my hand, child, come with me.
It's to a castle I will take you,
where what's to be, they say will be.

[GEsoftwhite100watts]

No Idea...
Taking back what is mine
I'm fine in the fire
I'll feed on the friction
I'm right where I should be
Don't try and fix me

[Mike]

10 years: Fix me

(BTW, the last post was Led Zepplin: What is and What should Never Be)

Here's a song Metallica recently did a cover on. It was originally by Deep Purple:

If you're leaving close the door.
I'm not expecting people anymore.
Hear me grieving, I'm lying on the floor.
Whether I'm drunk or dead I really ain't too sure.

The one you didn't get was by Queensryche
Here's one for you to guess:
I'll tell you right now the've got nothing to lose
They'll build an empire

[Mike]

Empire by Queensryche
Here's One:

When everything is lost (peel it all away)
Haunting us with questions (asking)
Will we...
Ever find the smile inside (no), is it hidden
Behind the sweating eyes (bleeding)
Dead inside a scream that's pouring from me

HINT: It's by Mudvayne

[GEsoftwhite100watts]

Never heard of that band; so I can't guess that one...
Here's one:
Little by little
The air Clears
I can breathe again

[Mike]

Hmm. I don't know that one...
Do you know the Scorpions? If so you'll know this one...

The job is done and I go out
Another boring day
I leave it all behind me now
So many worlds away
I meet my girl, she's dressed to kill
And all we gonna do
Is walk around to catch the thrill
On streets we call the zoo

[GEsoftwhite100watts]

The Zoo by the Scorpions
Ahh Leah
Here we go again...

[Mike]

Donnie Iris: Ah Leah

Say your prayers little one
Don't forget my son
To include everyone
I tuck you in
Warm within
Keep you free from sin
'Til the sandman he comes

[GEsoftwhite100watts]

Enter Sandman by Metallica
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think I still was a madman
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming
I can hear them say
Carry on my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more

[Mike]

Carry on My Wayward Son- Kansas
Here's the whole song since there're not many words: ...

If you're leaving close the door.
I'm not expecting people anymore.
Hear me grieving, I'm lying on the floor.
Whether I'm drunk or dead I really ain't too sure.
I'm a blind man, I'm a blind man and my world is pale.
When a blind man cries, Lord, you know there ain't no sadder tale.

Had a friend once in a room,
Had a good time but it ended much too soon.
In a cold month in that room
We found a reason for the things we had to do.

I'm a blind man, I'm a blind man, now my room is cold.
When a blind man cries, Lord, you know he feels it from his soul.
