What is the most recognizable lyric line ever?

[MuzikTyme]

Judas Priest!

Who doesn't like to live after midnight?

Judas Priest

The above band is one of my favourites.

I had the utmost pleasure of meeting Rob Halford (lead singer) and Ian Hill (bass player)

Very sad the band Judas Priest toured in two separate busses. This is one example of band members that hated each other.

I won't say what Rob Halford said about KK Downing and Glen Tipton (dual lead guitarists). . .

. . .because Robby made me promise I wouldn't.

A shame that I can't recall the drummer's name.

I met her in a club down in old Soho where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry cola

C-O-L-A cola

I got that song on vinyl and they sing "coca" cola in stead of "cherry" cola there. has there been some kind of censorship?

[Farin]

I know the coca cola version too

The line "You drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry cola" was recorded as "it tastes just like Coca-Cola." The British Broadcasting Company (BBC) refused to play it because of the commercial reference, so Ray Davies flew from New York to London to change the lyric and get the song on the air.

Judas Priest!

It took me a while and I kept trying to sing it to finally figure that one out, since google was no help.

I believe nikkomar means "To Love Somebody" (Bee Gees) but maybe by Eric Burdon, when he goes "liiiiiiiiike"... and the line is the intro of the song in his version.

[The Seeker]

I only know the cherry cola version.

[Farin]

if you want to, I can send you the coca cola version

[The Seeker]

No need to go to that trouble, thank you

[MuzikTyme]

I never realized Songfacts was a person or could talk and make a post. It didn't have much to say, apparently.

That's okay, though.

Songfacts is music and words aren't needed except the true SONGFACTS on the main page.

[MindCrime]

A shame that I can't recall the drummer's name.

Scott something, I can't remember because it's been a few decades since I knew that.

[The Seeker]

Scott Travis. I know because I use the google

[MuzikTyme]

Thanks Seeker!

I never would have guessed it.

Scott Travis sounds more like an accountant or country singer than a drummer for a legendary British band such as Judas Priest!

... blinded by the light revved up like a deuce ...

but maybe more recognizable is the misheard lyric:

... blinded by the light wrapped up like a douche ...

[edna]

I believe nikkomar means "To Love Somebody" (Bee Gees) but maybe by Eric Burdon, when he goes "liiiiiiiiike"... and the line is the intro of the song in his version.

I mean, this one: Eric Burdon sings "To Love Somebody"

[Dappled]

....the dogs say goodnight...

[MindCrime]

They'll kick you and they'll beat you and they'll tell you it's fair, so beat it

[edna]

When you´re down and troubled...

[Lucky]

Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down ...

And the beat goes on .... the beat goes on. Drums keep poundin' rythym to the brain. La da da da di, la da da da da ...

[JumboXL]

Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name....

[Lucky]

That's when I fell for the Leader of the Pack .... vroommm vroooommm vrooommm.

I was born in the USA ...

She works hard for the money so you'd better treat her right ...

That's the night that the lights went out in Georgia ...

[Jenny]

Got the mojo risin.....

[Batman]

my guess for hte most recognizable rap line ever:

"Oh baby you, you got what I need, but you say he just a friend, but you say he just a friend"

[TheLizard]

I think "F**k the police" is the most recognizable rap line ever.

Or "It's like this and like that and like this and-uh..."

[Farin]

or don't push me, 'cause I'm close to the edge

I'm trying not to lose my head

[Batman]

good choices Lizard, but I think Farin might have beaten us both!

[TheLizard]

Indeed!
