I love this track for a few reasons, mainly because its a beautifully tragic love song, and Nick Cave is a god
Where the Wild Roses Grow
Nick Cave and Kylie Minogue
Kylie: They call me the wild rose
But my name was Eliza Day
Why they call me it I do not know
For my name was Eliza Day
Nick: From the first day I saw her
I knew she was the one
As she stared in my eyes and smiled
For her lips were the colour of the roses
That grew down the river, all bloody and wild
Kylie: When he knocked on the door
And entered the room
My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
He would be my first man
And with a careful hand
He wiped at the tears that ran down my face
Kylie: They call me the wild rose
But my name was Eliza Day
Why they call me it I do not know
For my name was Eliza Day
Nick: On the second day I brought her a flower
She was more beautiful than any woman I'd seen
I said, "Do you know where the wild roses grow
So sweet and scarlet and free?"
Kylie: On the second day he came
With a single red rose
Said "Will you give me your loss and your sorrow?"
I nodded my head as I lay on the bed
He said, "If I show you the roses will you follow?"
They call me the wild rose
But my name was Eliza Day
Why they call me it I do not know
For my name was Eliza Day
On the third day he took me to the river
He showed me the roses and we kissed
And the last thing I heard was a muttered word
As he stood smiling above me
With a rock in his fist
Nick: On the last day I took her to where the wild roses grow
And she lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief
As I kissed her goodbye I said, "All beauty must die"
And lent down and planted a rose between her teeth
Kylie: They call me the wild rose
But my name was Eliza Day
Why they call me it I do not know
For my name was Eliza Day

Im not gonna be any help here, I just wanted to say nice username Crovax. Is that referencing what I think it is?

Im bored, so ima fuel the fire.
God is infinite.
For a being to be infinite it has to encompass everything simultaneously.
Ergo, I am God and God is me.
Therefore I am as equally God as everyone else, including Dubyah.
So the war is God's will.

Right, this is just what I came up with in the short time I researched the info you gave me, so it could be wrong, but here we go.
The gits were a punk rock band fronted my Mia Zapata, active from 1986 - 1993. Orginally from Ohio, they moved to seattle and quickly established a following, which would make sense what with Seattle being into the whole grunge / punk rock scene back then.
So, I found you a band fronted by a woman,
from seattle
in the mid to late eighties
who, being a punk rock band could have used a breaking glass sample in a track.
All you have to do now is try to find the song.

"Grow Old With You" - Adam Sandler (From The Wedding Singer)
I wanna make you smile whenever you're sad
Carry you around when your arthritis is bad
All I wanna do is grow old with you
I'll get your medicine when your tummy aches
Build you a fire if the furnace breaks
Oh it could be so nice, growing old with you
I'll miss you
Kiss you
Give you my coat when you are cold
Need you
Feed you
Even let ya hold the remote control
So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink
Put you to bed if you've had too much to drink
I could be the man who grows old with you
I wanna grow old with you

Hey guys, I thought I'd swing by and give a plug to my favourite local band. The Monotones are a 5 piece Rock/Funk/Blues group from my town, I went to high school with 4 of the members and I really love their stuff, so check out their myspace.

Anything by Jeff Buckley.
Iguana said Sad Lisa before, thats another one that nearly makes me lose my sh*t.
Beautiful - HIM. What?
im sure theres a lot more, but Ive become very bitter and not alot of songs get to me any more.
-
All my life by the Foo Fighters.
I was never really sure what it was about, then I found out it was about being a cunning linguist at a certain time of the month.

I need help finding a song, its like a french pop song kinda thing, its pretty well known. Its been in films and stuff a bit, its played at a rather quick pace, with what I think is the chorus being made up of 1 or two sylable words.
No I dont know any lyrics, I cant speak french.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thx,
Taufel

Paradise by the Dashboard Light - Meatloaf

The only medieval sounding song I can think of is greensleeves...

If you could compile the soundtrack for the end of the world, what would be on it?
Feel free to add stuff like REMs End of the world, but some serious ones that capture the feeling of the end would be nice to hear.
I know its an odd topic, but I thought it might be interesting.
28 days, 6 hours, 42 minutes, and 12 seconds.

Answer: David Bowie

this song has been performed by johnny cash, ben harper, jeff buckley, bob dylan, the byrds and probably many others.
i hope it all goes well for you. it will be a fitting tribute to your father's life to have the people he loved arranging it. i'm thinking of you and your family.
Satisfied Mind
How many times have
You heard someone say
If I had his money
I could do things my way
But little they know
That it's so hard to find
One rich man in ten
With a satisfied mind
Once I was waitin'
In fortune and fame
Everything that I dreamed for
To get a start in life's game
Then suddenly it happened
I lost every dime
But I'm richer by far
With a satisfied mind
Money can't buy back
Your youth when you're old
Or a friend when you're lonely
Or a love that's grown cold
The wealthiest person
Is a pauper at times
Compared to the man
With a satisfied mind
When my life has ended
And my time has run out
My friends and my loved ones
I'll leave there's no doubt
But one thing's for certain
When it comes my time
I'll leave this old world
With a satisfied mind
How many times have
You heard someone say
If I had his money
I could do things my way
But little they know
That it's so hard to find
One rich man in ten
With a satisfied mind
Im pretty sure they played that at Jeffs funeral, its a really beautiful song.

Really, this is an awesome site and all, but for a site called "songfacts" you really need someone checking the facts. One example I just found was for Black Sabbath's Paranoid. It claims on this site that Paranoid was Sabbath's first single, this is not so, Evil Woman was infact the first single by the founders of heavy metal. The song had been a hit for a band named Crow and the record company wanted to secure some second hand success with the song, so they got the four lads to cut a new version.
Despite being the band's first single, "Evil Woman" was excluded from Black Sabbath's debut album in the United States.

Sorry to throw a dampener on the thread..
I miss being in full control of my emotions
I miss being able to do nothing without the fear of my mind wandering off to somwhere I dont want it to be.
I miss being content with my existence
I miss saying "I love you babe" and hearing "I love you too"

What songs can you really relate to because you have lived them?

Screaming Infidelities - Dashboard Confessional

Breaking the Habit - Linkin Park

What are the songs that move you the most? When I say move I dont mean, "OMG Ima have to get up and move to this song!" I mean emotionally moving.
Hallelujah - Jeff Buckley (Well, almost anything by Jeff, but this is the one that stirs me the most.)
Bittersweet Symphony - The Verve (This one is a bit on the fence, the song has the most impact on me when its used in conjuction with the end of Cruel Intentions.)
Mad World - Donnie Darko Soundtrack (I appologise for not knowing the actual artist.)
-
Im after some songs about loosing ones mind, or just mental illness in general.
I already have Lithium by Nirvana, thats the kind of stuff im after.
thx in advance.
Greatest living drummer?

Animal from the muppets band.
srsly..
In my oppinion, the best metal drummer is Justin Foley from Killswitch Engage. Although, Justin has been quoted as saying his primary influences include John Bonham, Neil Peart, Buddy Rich, Sean Reinert, and Charlie Benante so I guess those guys are ok too.
