ok.

Talk about music, movies, TV, books, other types of entertainment and what your vices are. Also, if you're addicted to the high you get off Aspirin, this is the place to talk about it.

Thick as a Brick, by Jethro (Tull)

"In the night he's a star in the Milky Way
He's a man of the world by the light of day"

:chew: on that one. No one will get it (with the exception of Dan).
suppose you're thinking about a plate of shrimp. suddenly somebody will say like 'plate' or 'shrimp' or 'plate of shrimp', out of the blue, no explanation.

The Great Deciever. - King Crimson.
I'm guessing Spaz could have guessed it too.

What's funny is the fact I actually didn't know what song it was, but when reading it I hummed the music somehow.

Oh well.

"Ladies and gentlemen,
The monster,
Which the peasants in this area call FRUNOBULAX
(Apparently a very large poodle dog)
Has just been seen approaching The Power Plant
Bullets can't stop it
Rockets can't stop it
We may have to use NUCLEAR FORCE!"

That's Frank Zappa, and I realy wouldn't know just which song that's from, because the man has about 50 CDs.

My turn, one of my favorite songs

Talking to myself
Everybody's staring at me
I'm only bleeding"

I just want to say 'Damn'. I didn't think anyone in this forum had much in the way of musical taste, much less be able to pick a single line out of a 46 minute song. fucking bravo, man.

It is pointless indeed... it seems as if no one really cares about searching their own minds for a song they might recognise. Instead, everyone enters the quote into google find the song, just so they can post their favorite songquote next...
There are no 'knowns'. There are thing we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say there are things that we now know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know. So when we do the best we can and we pull all this information together, and we then say well that's basically what we see as the situation, that is really only the known knowns and the known unknowns. And each year, we discover a few more of those unknown unknowns.

You would have been right, if only people would have actually did that.

Atoga probably knew about Thick as a Brick because he likes Tull. I know I knew about KC, and Guardian seems to know about Zappa.

Well, I used to listen to it on a daily basis. The song's quite catchy, y'know.

Call in the troops
Cause here's a scoop
For you and your group
There's a drink around town
And it tastes like foo
The man in the tin suit
Bearing bitter fruit
Breakfast cereal turns to soup
Tastes like puke
