    This one is probably too easy, but it's a great quote, and it's stuck in my head at the moment:

    I tell you how I feel, but you don't care
    I say tell me the truth, but you don't dare
    You say love is a hell you cannot bear
    I say give me mine back and then go there... for all I care.

    Marceror - you need to correctly guess the last one before you can post your own quote.

    Okay, well based on the original rules, dmc got this first, so he's up.

    Here the original rules posted by Ofelix on the last page of this forum (http://www.sorcerers.net/forums/showthread.php?t=34530):

    So this makes me the impatient jackass (well, misinformed more than impatient), and it means it's dmc's turn

    Yes. It's mainly about the song. But the artist is wanted, too. Songs can be covered though, so multiple artists might come up with the same lyrics. I guess we want the original artist. But I'm not sure. Do the game rules say anything about that?

    Edit
    Sometimes it's pretty hard to know the original artist. Summertime, for example, is originally by Gershwin, but became famous when Ella Fitzgerald or Billy Holiday sang it. It's covered dozens of times. And the lyrics are by DuBose Heyward, the writer of Porgy and Bess...

    Actually Marceror, you are now up. Rather than clutter it up further, I'll just post your lyrics again for you:

    I tell you how I feel, but you don't care
    I say tell me the truth, but you don't dare
    You say love is a hell you cannot bear
    I say give me mine back and then go there... for all I care.

    Right on the money. I could have gone with a more obscure verse from the song, but I have always really loved that opening line, so I just stuck with it.

    EDIT - Weee, 1,000 posts! It's VERY rare that I stick around on a message board long enough to reach 1k. Only took me around 7 1/2 years. :p This calls for a signature change.

    I have Tidal on my iPod.

    Pfff! There are so many names that I don't know and when I look'em up, I often think "Ohhh! That guy/woman/band!" Most times after hearing a different song (Love is a battlefield, in this case.)
    But I never heard of Fiona Apple. And to think there are people in this world who say I know a lot about music! :p

    Actually, that was my favorite Pat Benetar song. One of my high school friends made a video to it as her 11th grade English project. Thanks T2, that brings back some memories.

    Rags - same thing for you. You can't post lyrics until you guess the current ones correctly or the floor is open for the next person that wants to post.

    In this case, I'm not opening the floor -- new lyrics:


    And if it got hot and hectic
    I know she'd be electric

    I always thought it was "elected", but what the hell. That's one of my favorite good time bands, Huey Lewis and the News, singing one of my least favorite of their songs, Heart and Soul. But it did bring back some great memories!
