Music thread - Best opening line to a song

[Titanic]

The distant echo of faraway voices boarding faraway trains...

 

[Titanic]

Saturdays boys live life with insults...

 

[Titanic]

Closer than close, you see yourself,
A mirrored image of what you wanted to be...

 

[Titanic]

A police car and a screaming siren,
pneumatic drill and ripped up concrete.
A baby wailing and a stray dog howling,
the screech of brakes and lamplights blinking...

 

[Buzzer]

The distant echo of faraway voices boarding faraway trains...

thread closed. What a choon

 

[Titanic]

Life is timeless, days are long when you are young...

 

[Titanic]

Sup up your beer and collect your fags,
There's a row going on down near Slough...

 

[Titanic]

Very appropriate for NSC...

If it's not you moaning, then it's someone else,
Jumping down my throat, every chance you get...

 

[Benny Seagull]

"Born with insight and a raised fist"

 

[Icy Gull]

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall"
You thought they were all kiddin' you

 

[The Large One]

Hush my child and don't you cry
Your folks might understand you by and by

 

[Barry Izbak]

Its One o'clock and time for lunch, dum dee dum dee dum

 

[Kylies Stunt Arse]

In a river the colour of lead, immerse the baby's head.
Wrap her up in the News Of The World. Dump-her-on-a-doorstep girl.

 

[medicine man]

The time I think most clearly,
The time I drift away
Is on the bus ride that meanders
through these valleys of green and grey

 

[medicine man]

Or,
We followed the tail lights out of the city
moving in a river of red

 

[medicine man]

Well... you didn't wake up this morning,
'cause you didn't go to bed.
You were watching the whites of your eyes turn red!

 

[ATFC Seagull]

"It was Christmas Eve babe, in the drunk tank"

"Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road"

"Echoes of reggae, coming through my bedroom door,
Hell of a party up next door but I'm sitting here all alone"

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

It's been 7 hours and 15 days.....

 

[Prof P]

"She left me on Friday, and ruined my weekend"

Soft Cell - Say Hello Wave Goodbye : Standing at the door of the pink flamingo crying in the rain, it was a kind of so so love and I'm gonna make sure it never happens again.
