    It's often misquoted as "hung up on the time".

    It's better to burn out than fade away.

    Does any instance count?

    Def Leppard - Rock Of Ages

    I thought it was normally "... than to fade away," but I'm guessing that might be your distinguishing criteria.

    I don't believe there's a second "to" in that line of the song. You're up.

    Never even heard of it.

    I'm probably going to regret this, but here's something from a song that's recent:

    Your grace is wasted in your face,
    your boldness stands alone among the wreck

    I probably wasn't paying attention . . .

    Anyway, you're, of course, right.

    Gnarff or DOTW might know it too! All yours. For those who don't know it I recommend giving it a listen on YouTube -- the version he did with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra sends chills down my spine.

    Gnarff hasn't been around for over a year, and DOTW has supposedly left but keeps coming back to say he's not coming back.

    I really don't know clouds at all

    Actually, I was going for Joni Mitchell since she wrote it, but I think Judy Collins recorded it first, so that'll do.

    You're up dmc.
