Great opening lines from DEBUT singles

[Tarpon]

It wasn't their first single - if it is who I think it is.

 

[jonny.rainbow]

Go to a cash machine,
To get a ticket home.
The message on the screen,
Says don't make plans you're broke.

 

[Stat Brother]

It wasn't their first single - if it is who I think it is.

It's such a fantastic line, it still deserves a mention.

I'm fairness it wasn't even the first single off the album...



..I got a little carried away.

 

[Mr Bridger]

Didn't have the money round to buy a Morry Thou
Been around and seen a lot to shake me anyhow
Begged and borrowed sometimes, I admit I even stole
The worse crime that I ever did was playing rock 'n roll.

 

[El Presidente]

White Riot, I wanna riot
White Riot, I riot of my own

 

[Tarpon]

It's such a fantastic line, it still deserves a mention.

I'm fairness it wasn't even the first single off the album...



..I got a little carried away.

Fair comment. Actually the debut single's first lines are pretty good...

Listen to the voice of Buddha
Saying stop your sericulture
Little people like your offspring
Boiled alive for some gods stocking
Buddha's watching, Buddha's waiting

 

[Dr. Notthenineo'clocknews]

Well this actually is a 'Debut' single, and not a bad one either

If you ever get close to a human.....

 

[Stat Brother]

I'm going to redeem myself with this (even though I know there's a non charting release before it):-

Sometimes you're better off dead
There's gun in your hand and it's pointing at your head
You think you're mad, too unstable
Kicking in chairs and knocking down tables

 

[El Presidente]

You never listened to a word that I said
You only seen me from the clothes that I wear

 

[Knock Kneed Chicken]

I've been going out with a girl
Her name is Julie
But last night she said to me
When we were watching telly

 

[Garage_Doors]

I am an antichrist
I am an anarchist.

As best as it can be.
First line of the first single, very powerful entrance to the music scene.

 

[Pogue Mahone]

sex and drugs and rock n roll

is all my brain and body need

sex and drugs and rock n roll

are all very good indeed

I'm afraid you are late to the party...

 

[El Presidente]

I've come across the desert
To greet you with a smile
My camel looks so tired
It's hardly worth my while

 

[El Presidente]

........and the one that started it all and ultimately has made my life a much better place

Is she really going out with him?
Ah!
I gotta a feelin' inside of me
It's kinda strange like a stormy sea

 

[R. Slicker]

Calling Mister Oswald with a Swastika tattoo.
There is a vacancy waiting in the English Voodoo.

 

[hitony]

Oh, a storm is threat'ning
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away​

 

[R. Slicker]

Pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street.

 

[kevo]

"Jesus f**king Christ, oh God no!"

(name the song - and yes, it was a debut single...)

 

[hart's shirt]

"Are teenage dreams so hard to beat
Everytime she walks down the street
Another girl in the neighbourhood
Wish she was mine, she looks so good"

"Time on your side that will never end
The most beautiful thing you can ever spend
But you work in a shirt with your name tag on it
Drifting apart like a plate tectonic"

"Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses"

"I need to be myself
I can't be no one else
I'm feeling supersonic
Give me gin and tonic"

 

[Pogue Mahone]

I just wish that Another Girl, Another Planet hadn't been the second Only Ones single.
