Yes arent especially known for their lyrics. I mean they had a hit song with the lyrics "mountains come out of sky and they stand there"

:D

Don't get me wrong. I love the band.

The Band is great. Especially "The Weight" and "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down".

I actually sang that line over and over again to the point that my wife yelled at me once.  I couldn't get it out of my head. :(

Another thing I sometimes sing to Princesca when I'm leaving to come home from a business trip is "Mama, I'm Coming Home" by Ozzy.  So I guess those lyrics are true also. :)

Oh yeah, Jon Anderson 'wrote the book' on obtuse song lyrics.

Oddly Big Generator, probably has some of their most intelligible songs on it.

"Love Will Find a Way, If You Want It To."

Sorry, but that's just wrong, I think anyone who's reach 15, say 18 at the outside, will know that's patently soppy and doesn't work in the real world.*

Well I guess it depends on what love is supposed to find its way to :hmm:

The lion sleeps tonight"

I mean WTF?  Lions don't live in the jungle they live in the savannah.

Wimoweh wimoweh wimoweh wimoweh is fine then?   :glare:

That song was shite when it first came out, I can't begin to imagine how bad a Marty-Yi duet would be.  :D

That sounds like a Drunken Karaoke Challenge.  ;)

There'd be horsemen, four in all, coming when "play" was pressed.

I heard it as "oh-wimoweh, oh-wimoweh"

I sing backup on that song every couple weeks with an autistic kid who's a regular at my hang.

Caliga
