Guess The Lyrics Game

[DFF]

11 is Rush, I thought it was earlier, and your clue would agree with that, but I have no idea what the song is because I don't listen to them

Edit: And I really think you should give us a bit more than "Run... hide"

1. Well you should, they are awesome. But yeah, it's a Rush song.

2. "All that was sacred to us"

[Matt]

Eh, I've just googled 13, I'd have never got that. Won't google the Rush one, but can I phone a friend?

[DFF]

Eh, I've just googled 13, I'd have never got that. Won't google the Rush one, but can I phone a friend?

Sure, why not. Sooner I clear this list sooner I can post a better one.

[Matt]

Chris says it's called "A Larger Bowl".

Edit: And I agree, I want people to get my list so I can post a better one.

[Guest ToffeeFan2k8]

In that case, #14 - "Honesty" by Sevendust?

[DoubleX]

In that case, #14 - "Honesty" by Sevendust?

You're using Google aren't you?

[Guest ToffeeFan2k8]

No, I just have very weird sense in music, didn't recognise Honesty until I saw the Three Days Grace song.

[Farmer Reil]

I reckon my list needs some serious clue-age too

#2 - Still enough, although I know you're not begging. Still as the thoughts running through your mind

#3 - Once when we were returning from a battle, we got lost in a lonely forest. In the middle of the woods we saw an old house, with tired minds we knocked the door very loudly.

#5 - Growing up with the wild bears, breathing the smell of burning wood. Rain and clouds my only friends, sun and moon and stars and light

#6 - Giants of stone build up my desire, no one could tell us the secret of fire. The hunger for wisdom deep in your heart, you can't accept that you're living apart

#7 - As I walk through the blackened forest, thoughts of hate and anger fill my soul. The charred remains of the holy rollers, scream repentance though it's far too late

#10 - With sense of irony everyone you see is chasing their illusion, take a dive or sink or swim but in the end you're in the same pollution

#11 - Murder at your every foot step, a child's toy - sudden death. Sniper blazes you through your knees, falling down can you feel the heat. Burn!

#13 - Born of blood, mysterious. Fire and steel, their loves. Land and kin, is everything. Their only god is war.

#2 is on the second album of a well known metal act. Is a very difficult lyric though, so I'll give you some more:

Still enough,

Although I know you're not begging,

Still as the thoughts running through your mind.

Still enough,

Although I know you're not begging,

Give me a reason, to maaaake yoooou miiiiiiiiiiiine!

#3 is a Finnish folk/viking metal band, but quite a prominent one. If you don't know it, you won't know it. But if you do, it should be obvious. Can't really give much more than that... WfS should know it, as he specifically mentions it in the Metal Thread. I'm sure the band has some other fans on EWB too.

#5 is more obscure. Finnish folk metal. Some people will have heard of the band, via EWB if nowhere else, but the song itself is so obscure most fans will probably not know it... It also doesn't help that the title isn't in the lyrics at all.

Growing up with the wild bears

Breathing the smell of burning wood

Rain and clouds my only friends

Sun and moon and stars and light

Now it’s time of a midnight sun

The eternal light and a breathing night

Call the gods with bones and drum

Join the shaman’s magic

Flames are dancing in the night

The shadows seem to be alive

The forest is calling my name

Flames are fading in the dawn

The spirits are back to their world

I’ve seen the future and it’s good.

That's the entire song. Sorry.

#6 is a German power metal band that I'm in love with. Don't really expect anyone to get that, maybe lari as it's on an older album. On of my favourite songs by them, but that won't help much.

#7, though it sounds folk metalish, really really isn't. Most will know the band, but again it's not their most popular song...

I fight back the laughter at what I see,

The suffering healers false destined prophecy,

He didn't think yesterday of the end of his life,

The brainwashed fools born again of a thousand lies

Any help?

#10 is a solo single by the vocalist involved with #8. Should be a 'if you know the song it's easy' type of lyric.

The artist for #11 has been guessed already, and as for the song... if it was an 'intros' round rather than an opening lyrics round, it would DEFINITELY have been guessed.

#13 is pretty much up to W-f-S It's my favourite song from one of the artists on his list.

Edited March 9, 2009 by Farmer Reil

[DFF]

10 sounds like a Bruce Dickinson song from the description - but all I know of his that well is Tears of the Dragon, which that isn't.

Is 5 a Korpiklaani song?

6 - Is it an Edguy track?

FUCK! 14 is Amon Amarth! Twilight of the Thunder God! :D :D :D

[Liam]

1. The avalanche we start towards

2. We chase misprinted lies Alice In Chains 'Nutshell' TMW

3. Dead, I am the one, exterminating son Rob Zombie 'Dragula' fr34k

4. One devotion to an empty moment Finch 'Awake' YI

5. I was a little too tall, could’ve used a few pounds

6. You close your eyes, and leave me naked by your side

7. I don’t want to see you waiting, I’ve already gone too far away

8. Readying to bury your father and your mother REM 'Sweetness Follows' YI

9. Went to a party, I danced all night Dead Kennedys 'Too Drunk To Fuck' Lint6

10. Gotta’ find a way to grieve without my head sticking into my heart

11. They move too fast to be words behind your teeth

12. Park the car at the side of the road

13. I’m the best you ever had

14. Landing on a runway in Chicago and I’m drowning all my dreams Fall Out Boy 'Homesick At Space Camp' Lj.

15. I was born in a town where the rivers run free The Gaslight Anthem 'Red At Night' TRW

Here's mine updated. As for some clues:

Number one would be easily got by Ollie. British band, had some success with their debut album, which is what this song is off of. Not a single though. I'll even give you that the song name is in the title, you're just looking for the band >_>

Number five is by an artist who has been covered by Metallica, but not the song that Metallica covered. Probably a little on the hard side.

Number six is probably another kinda hard one. Danish band, who I only really know for this song.

Seven is a naff alternative rock Canadian band who had a little bit of success in the UK riding off the back of Nickelback's success. Their 'big' single.

Ten is one for IAceI. UK alternative band, from Essex iirc.

Eleven I'm surprised no-one has got yet. Summers, Dragsy and Ellis's favourite band, and a song off of their third album.

Twelve is another one I'm surprised someone hasn't got yet. Legendary UK band whose singer has gone on to have a successful solo career, including a new album released about two weeks ago

Thirteen is probably a little difficult. One of my favourite bands twinned with one of my favourite vocalists for an EP whilst the band looked for a vocalist for their second album.

[DoubleX]

8. A New Zealand band that changed its name in the wake of 9/11, but have since changed it back.

10. Christian rock band that have done at least one WWE PPV theme song.

15. The lead singer is a stand-up comedian, and was also part of the ensemble cast of a somewhat well known Showtime series that aired from 2000 to 2005.
