So, without further ado, back by popular demand, I bring to you, the rebirth of luke warm:
THE LYRICS QUIZ: REBORN
Ok, you remember the drill. We need the title of the song and the artist (or "artist" in some cases). Arguing over who did the best cover of an original is encouraged, but Janis kicks Kris' ass at Bobby McGee, and that can be changed by neither men nor gods.
I'm going to mix those standard questions up with some short answers - no True/False or multiple choices (so far :) ) Also, I've made no attempt whatsoever to reconcile these with the earlier billions or quizicles, so expect review questions of songs we've already covered. You have been reviewing all semester long, haven't you?
1.
She helped me with my suitcase,2.
She stands before my eyes
Driving me to the airport,
And to the friendly skies.
Sometimes, tell me3.
While she's touching you
Just by mistake
Accidentally do you say my name?
Old friends meet on the edge of town4.
Sharing conversation, hoping things will soon get better
While the children meet, got the world at their feet
Not knowing whats around the corner
Are we living for an uncertain future?
Don't be afraid to try again5.
Everyone goes south
Every now and then
You've done it, why can't
Someone else?
Out on the wiley, windy moors6.
We'd roll and fall in green.
You had a temper like my jealousy:
Too hot, too greedy.
How could you leave me,
When I needed to possess you?
I hated you. I loved you, too.
I was living for a dream, loving for a moment7.
Taking on the world, that was just my style
Then I touched your hand, I could hear you whisper...
I could leave but I won't go
Though my heart might tell me so
I can't feel a thing from my head down to my toes
Short Answer (Bonus points for title and artist)
8. Who might declare us "the nicest of the damned?"
9. What is it that brings out the man in me?
10. Where might you find a one-man band who'll toot his flute for you?
11. What did you swear the time before?

#6 survivor - the search is over
good to see you mr. quiz!
#7 Phil Collins "That's All"
Thanks for the memories, Mr. Quizmaster.
#9, "I guess it's just the woman in you that brings out the man in me" Feels Like the First Time. Foreigner. Bleah.
#11, "never again is what you swore the night before."
I too am rusty. And late.
#3 is Erasure, "Ship of Fools" I think.
