Name the Artist/Band + Song

Thought up a new trivia game for the section. Someone posts a few lyrics from a song and the follow up poster names the song and artist or band who recorded it. Then they quote from another song and so on.

If you know it offhand, say that you knew it. If you don't know the song, check it here but fess up to checking if you had to. It's not a big deal.

First one

Walking round the room
Singing stormy weather
At 57 mt pleasant st.

Crowded House - Weather With You
(I had to check)


Next:
"So please stay off my back
Or I will attack and you don't want that"

Snap-The Power

Next:
All through the morning rain I gaze
The sun doesn't shine
Rainbows and waterfalls run through my mind
(Either Version)

Eran James Strawberry Letter

Next:

They passed me by, all of those great romances
You were, I felt, robbing me of my rightful chances
My picture clear, everything seemed so easy
And so I dealt you the blow

I confess, I had to look that one up!

ABBA - "One of Us"

Here's Mine:

I can feel this light that's inside of me
growing fast into a bolt of lightning
I know one spark will shock the world
So I pray for favor like Esther

Who am I living for - Katy Perry

Here is mine:

Spring was never waiting for us, girl
It ran one step ahead
As we followed in the dance
Between the parted pages and were pressed,
In love's hot, fevered iron
Like a striped pair of pants

MacArthur Park - Richard Harris

------

Getting over you was slow
They say old lovers can be good friends
But I never thought I'd really see you,
I'd really see you again

One of my favorite songs "I Go Crazy" Paul Davis

Mine:

Wasn't it me who said that
Nothin’ good's gonna last forever?
And wasn't it me who said
Let's just be glad for the time together?
It must've been hard to tell me
That you've given all you had to give
I can understand your feeling that way
Everybody's got their life to live

Touch Me In the Morning/Diana Ross.



You had to get yours and now I gotta get mine
No more games we're playing boy and no more lies
No No No it ain't going your way
I got a count down for you
It'll send you on your way

5-4-3-2-1 your time is up by Jade

Here is mine:

Tonight's the night we're gonna make it happen
Tonight we'll put all other things aside
Get in this time and show me some affection
We're goin' for those pleasures in the night

"I'm So Excited" - Pointer Sisters


I'm going crazy alone in a daze
And my heart ain't the same
And I don't even think unless I think about you

Wake Up and Live - Bob Marley (had to look it up.)

Arthur he does as he pleases
All of his life, he's mastered choice
Deep in his heart, he's just, he's just a boy
Living his life one day at a time
And showing himself a really good time
Laughing about the way they want him to be

Arthur's Theme by Christopher Cross

Here is Mine:

Hey well
I'm a friendly stranger in a black sedan
Won't you hop inside my car.
I got pictures, got candy
I'm a loveable man
And I can take you to the nearest star

That was Vehicle by Ideas of March

She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I'd hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of pain

Her hair reminds me of a warm, safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder and the rain to quietly pass me by

I Am...I Said - Neil Diamond


"Transformin on stage like a Decepticon
But I'm not animated like a cartoon
I'm for real, shootin lyrics like a harpoon
Across the crowd, the listeners, the spectators
So let's groove with the smooth operator"

Once Upon A Time In The Projects - Ice Cube

Well I'm goin' out west
Where the wind blows tall
'Cause Tony Franciosa
Used to date my ma
They got some money out there
They're giving it away
I'm gonna do what I want
Do what I want
And I'm gonna get paid

Goin' Out West - Tom Waits

You know you're everything I do
Do what you want me to
I would do anything
Get on my knees for you
What else is there to do
I don't know, I don't know
But I'll cry

Cry For You by Jodeci (Had to look)

An easy one.

Here we are
Now you're in my arms
I never wanted anything so bad
Here we are
For a brand new start
Living the life that we could've had

Solid as a Rock by Sizzla
(looked)

Pink ribbon scars
That never forget
I’ve tried so hard
To cleanse these regrets
My angel wings
Were bruised and restrained
My belly stings
