I Should Change My Journal Name to Meme-o-matic

[quidditchgrrl]

Found on ladycadey's journal:

I liked the music meme better than the movie meme, since I know a lot more lyrics than catchphrases.

Riddle me this: Song title and artist that correspond to the lyrics under the cut

Bonus if you can give me the next line of the song too.  :)

Oh, Oh! I know another one:


Life is a test, and I confess: I like this mess I've made so far
They Might Be Giants Boss of Me.

This one is familiar too, but I can't figure it out:
He says there's no room for the both of them, she says she might like to stick around
It's going to drive me crazy trying to figure it out. *resists googling*

Dropping in from my friendsfriends page because I am a lyric guessing geek! *g*

Just when you think you've caught her/She glides across the water is Lips Like Sugar by Echo and the Bunnymen, and the next line is "she calls for you tonight to share this moonlight."

It was easy then to tell truth from lies, selling out from compromise is Shades of Gray by the Monkees and I *think* the next line is "who to love and who to hate" but I wouldn't put any money on it. *g*

And can I just say that your Lizzy mood theme is fabulous?

Well "Parkin' outside of all the hip-hop spots/Push the E-Q and play connect the dots" sounded to me sort of like the Thong Song by Sisqo, but then I went to look it up because it didn't exactly match up in my head, and wherever I looked it said "She like to dance at all the hip hop spots/
And she cruise to the crews like connect the dots" so now I'm unsure. :\

[quidditchgrrl.livejournal.com]

Nawp, nawp, it's not the Thong Song...

[instantramen]

LL Cool J? Huh. Proof that the music industry gets less and less original as time goes on, I suppose.

Dude, I can't believe I didn't recognize Followed the Waves and More Human Than Human! *facepalm*
