Great Statements/Lines In Songs.. Posted On: Nov 29, 2010 15:57:07 GMT

No entire lyrics, just short verses/lines/statements in songs that you think are great, doesn't have to be political or earth changing, just stuff that is great for whatever reason..

Joy Division (Ian Curtis):

Heart & Soul

Heart and soul...one will burn

Springsteen:

Thunder Road

You aint a beauty, but hey, you're alright, and that's alright with me..

Nas:

NY State Of Mind

I never sleep, cos' sleep is the cousin of death

Talib Kweli:

Get By

The TV got us reachin for stars, not the ones between Venus and Mars, the ones that be readin for parts, so people get breast enhancements and penis enlargers, Saturday sinners Sunday morning at the feet of the Father

Tom Waits:

9th& Hennepin

No one brings anything small into a bar around here, they all started out with bad directions. And the girl behind the counter has a tattooed tear, "One for every year he's away", she said, such a crumbling beauty

Neil Young:

Speakin' Out

So tell me where the answer lies, is it in the notebook behind your eyes?

Daniel Johnston:

Living Life

Oh hope for the hopeless, because I'm learning to cope with the emotion-less mediocrity of.. day to day living. Oh, I can't help being restless when everything's so tasteless, and all the colors seem to have faded away.

Belle & Sebastian (Stuart Murdoch):

Piazza New York Catcher

I wish that you were here with me to pass the dull weekend, I know it wouldn't come to love, my heroine pretend. A lady stepping from the songs we love until this day, You'd settle for an epitaph like "Walk Away, Renee". The sun upon the roof in winter will draw you out like a flower, meet you at the statue in an hour.

Bright Eyes:

Four Winds

A heart just can't contain all of that empty space... It breaks

Arcade Fire (Win Butler):

Wake Up

We're just a million little gods causing rainstorms, turning every good thing to rust....I guess we'll just have to adjust

''I was born with an abundance of inherited sadness'' From Jacksonville Skyline by Whiskeytown. Top top tune

That entire song is so quotable: "overcame me wishing I was still back home", "looking for a vacancy I wasn't able to find"...

The more I know, the less I understand.' 'meet the new boss, same as the old boss.' 'wiggle wiggle wiggle like a rolling hoop, wiggle wiggle wiggle like a bowl of soup.'

And he says, "How ?" And you say, "What does this mean ?" And he screams back, "You're a cow Give me some milk Or else go home".
