"And I knew in the end I’d do what they told me to do”

[avram]

Twenty more-or-less random songs (I skipped over the instrumentals, and a couple I couldn’t find the lyrics to), identified in HTML comments, so if you get tired of guessing you can just use the magic source-viewing goggles you got for sending in three TITLE tags:

1. Hey man, what's the plan, what was that you said?
2. Use your ears to hear
3. He told me I should sing this song wherever I should roam
4. Used to be different, now you’re the same
5. The aquaducts overflown
6. Mother Mary your children are slaughtered
7. Ten thousand years I've searched it seems and now
8. There’s nothing you can find that can not be found
9. I have one question, maybe three
10. Do you close your eyes? Do you raise your face?
11. Here's to Patti, and Tina, and Yoko, Aretha, and Nona, and Nico, and me
12. Senator Kelly calls me “mutie”; he’ll taste my adamantium
13. I want to raise my freak flag higher and higher and
14. You won't forget me, no, no, no, no, no, no
15. But I don't much like the look of it
16. The shaking voice that tells him go
17. How 'bout a mouthful of Chiclets?
18. To that tenor saxophone calling me home
19. Don't you care about my pride?

Hm, something strips out the comment tags. Let me try this: <!-- COMMENT -->

#1 is a Jethro Tull song, but I don't know the title.
#13 is TMBG, "How Can I Sing Like a Girl?"

[avram]

Yes on both.

[filkerdave.livejournal.com]

4 is also TMBG, "Cage and Aquarium"

[avram]

Yup.

#1 is "Teacher", although the melody didn't fall into my head until you wrote "Jethro Tull".

#11 is "Midnight Radio", from Hedwig and the Angry Inch; #12 is "Wolverine's Lament (Theme to the X-Men)" by "Jewel", from Modern Humorist.

#8 is All You Need Is Love by the Beatles
#13 is How Can I Sing Like a Girl by They Might be Giants

[avram]

You got #13, but you fell for my trap on #8.

[redaxe.livejournal.com]

So I did. :-|

On the other hand, now that I see them again, #6 is Once Upon a Time in the West by Dire Straits and #19 is also Dire Straits, Where Do You Think You're Going. (okay, so I just happened to play Communique after I answered the first time. But still...)

[avram]

Yup and yup.

#7 is "Call me, Call me"

[avram]

Someone else with a Cowboy Bebop soundtrack CD! (This is the one on the four-disk set.)

Um, yeah... I got a little obsessed with CowBe and bought all the albums. :)
