I'm not sure if it's been done before, but I'd be interested to know exactly what kinds of music everyone's into, and what songs in particular they like.

So - if you can be bothered - tell me one of your favourite music tracks and if you like, tell me the lyrics too.

Here are 2 of my personal favourites:

---------
"All I Want" by The Offspring


Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Day after day
Your whole life's a wreck
The powers that be just breath down your neck
You get no respect
You get no relief
You gotta speak up and yell out your dreams

So knock off your rules
Knock off your job
'Cos I'm sick of not living to stay alive
Just leave me alone
Not asking a lot
Just don't wanna be controlled

It's all I want

How many times
Is it gonna change
Til someone around you hears what you say?
You've tried being cool
You feel like a lie
You've played by the rules now it's their turn to try

So knock off your rules
Knock off your job
'Cos I'm sick of not living to stay alive
Just leave me alone
Not asking a lot
Just don't wanna be controlled

Said it before
I'll say it again
And if you'd just listen then it might make sense

So knock off your rules
Knock off your job
'Cos I'm sick of not living to stay alive
Just leave me alone
Not asking a lot
Just don't wanna be controlled

It's all I want

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

"Gone Away" by The Offspring

Maybe in another life
I could find you there
Pulled away before your time
I can't deal it's so unfair

And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it feels
Yeah it feels like
The world has grown cold
Now that you've gone away

Leaving flowers on your grave
To show that I still care
But black roses and Hail Mary's
Can't bring back what's taken from me
I reach to the sky
And call out your name
And if I could trade
I would

And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it stings
Yeah it stings now
The world is so cold
Now that you've gone away

I reach to the sky
And call out your name
And if I could trade
I would

And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it stings
Yeah it stings now
The world is so cold
Now that you've gone away

Another one to boost my word count :-P

Wyclef Jean - 80 Bars:

80 Bars
80 Scars
Yo, engineer, turn me up, yo

I started off in the underground
From mono to stereo
Now I'm surround sound
Blowin through your tubes
Leavin holes through your speakers
Crackin through your tweeters
My frequency's off the meters
Jam pack arenas from here to Bangkok
I'm ahead of my time like Jimmy Hendrix played Woodstock
Me, I'm playin Hoodstock
Before I had the dreadlocks I used to reminisce
Should I do music or sell rocks
Grow my own crops
Livin in the PJs
That's when an angel, Gabriel, said
It's all a masquerade
Eyes wit no face, sneakers wit no lace
I feel the earth spinnin but I'm standing in the same space
Wit no trace of what happened last night
I seen two fiends fightin over a crack pipe
Now I'm watchin tv
My antenna was a clothes hanger
Blurry vision Mista Mondehan David Banner
Flip the data
The kids are wearin bandanas
Totin hammers
Aimin at your medulla oblongata
Blow Blow
A young thug wit a slim figure
Romantic type like the movie Casablanca
Herb seller once got busted by a undercover buyer
My supplier was a Gypsie cab driver
That's when I realized I need to find a new hustle
Livin in the jungle
The guitar became my muscle
I scribe through snake eyes that wanted my crucified
Y'all thought that I was drownin but I was getting baptized
Now behold I heard you sold twenty mill
But wit no street credibility you overkill
Y'all ain't real
Talkin bout keep it gangsta
Only if you knew the gangsta sent me to shank you
Gank you, gank you, tie up your ankles
And if that ain't enough I call hinchmens to lynch you
Now at the funeral I could see the priest bless you
But in the after life I'ma still touch you
Knockin on heaven's door you beggin to get in
That's when the Son of Man greets you wit the face of Satan
Now you look frightened in the belly of the whale
That's when the warden say I wanna welcome you to hell
Bones is five bucks
Get off the phone, time's up
I seen him cut from his head to his (scratch $#@%)
You wish you would wish you could
Wishin got you here
You screamin so loud that a deaf man could hear
Back to the silence
No more droppin science
Everybody rappin bout diamonds and violence
And A&R's all they do is charge credit cards
And when the bill comes
They blame it on the rap stars
Now how you figure
I ain't rent a car
I wasn't at the spa
I ain't buy the bar
Now here's a Jew
When you get your first record deal
Don't subject yourself to the mass appeal
First class, caviar in the ?Ville
In the new S class wit da Jordan wheels
Remember the music in the streets like the streets
You know the code of the streets
Everybody tryin to eat
The evidence is concrete
I'm tired of the same song
You take me out
You must be high off of heroine
Sharper than I ever been
This one gon get a ten
Rappers, I'ma murder y'all wit your own medicine
I move with faith
I never have doubt
I'm so hungry you would think I'm just comin out
But I been here before from Blunted to The Score
To the Carnival, Ecleftic, World Tour
I'm poison
Wh0res waitin in the back door
They want me to rock they boat and shift them on shore
That's when the Father said,
?Take heed to this lesson'
They wanna cut your hair like Delilah did Samson
I felt that
So I went back to my format
Raps in backpack
Gats for car jacks
Hats for p****-cats
Cause AIDS I don't want that
And for the DJ's here's somethin y'all can scratch
Technique twelve
The needle hits the wax
Hypnotize the crowd
The dance floor's jam packed
Now sing along like a Negro spiritual
No one got shot tonight
It's a miracle
But what's this I hear
Y'all wanna take my spot
You got a better chance puttin a gorilla in a headlock
I'm too focused I can see through your lens
You ain't a G, just a wannabe kingpin
So, the next time y'all wanna pay for protection
I suggest that you hit up the Hatian Sicilian

Lyrically this beats all hands down :0)

The streets - Weak Become Heroes

turn left up the street
nothing but grey concrete and dead beats
grab something to eat maccy d's or kfc
only one choice in the city
done voicing my pity
now let's get to the nitty gritty
tune reminds me of my first e
quite unique still 16 and feeling horny
point to the sky feel free
see here people are all equals
smiles in front and behind me
swimming the deep blue see
corn fields sway lazily
all smiles all easy
where you from whats you on and whats your story
mesmorising tones rising pianos
this is my zone so stop cloning
pick paper scissors or stone
coz me and you are da same
known you all me life i dont know your name
the names european bob sorted
anyway have a dance now see ya later
please to meet ya
likewise a pleasure

(Chorus)
we were just standing in my hara home
we went on and on 'we all smile we all sing'
weak become heroes and the stars aligned 'we all sing we all sing'

but the night slowly fades and goes slow motion
all the comotion becomes floating emotions
same piano loops over
arms wave eyes roll back and jaws fall open
see in soft focus
chatting to this bloke in the toilets
dizzy new heights blinded by the lights
these people are for life
its all back to his place at the end of the night
yo, they could settle wars with this
if only they will
imagine the worlds leaders on pills
and imagine the morning after
wars causing disaster
don't talk to me i don't know ya
but this aint tomorrow for now i still love ya
hours fly over
sail round diamonds and pearls
never seen so many fit girls
discover new worlds
look at my watch can't focus
last two hours i lost
every move fills me with lust
all of life's problems i just shake off
hell, mad little events happen
things map out and a few little blue maidens are like
the toilets
big beefy bounces out to reveal us
geezers on e's and first timers
kids on wizz darlings on charlie
all come together for this party
ball races many faces from places you never heard of
where you from whats your name and what you on
sing to the words flex to the fat ones
the trible drums
suns rising
we all smile we all sing

(chorus)

then the girl in the cafe' taps me on the shoulder
i realise 5yrs went by and i'm older
memories smoulder winters colder
but that same piano loops over and over and over
the road shines and the rain washes away
same chinese takeaway
selling $hit in a tray
it's dark all round
i walk down
same sights same sounds
new beats though
solid concrete under my feat
no surprises no treats
the world stands still as my mind sloshes round
the washing up bowl in my crown
my life's been up and down since i walked from that crowd

(chorus)

outta respect for johnny walker
paul oakenfold
nicky holloway
danny rampling
and all the people who gave us these times
and to the government
i stick my middle finger up
with regards to the criminal justice bill
for all the heroes i met along the way
(over) 'weak become heroes and the start aligned'
we all sing we all sing
weak become heroes and the stars aligned
we all sing we all sing

(chorus)




Oh yeas, and thanks to www.LetsSingIt.com for the Lyrics

Outside
the sky is falling
Theres people dodging raindrops
I'll stay in the dry
You walk before me
but I dont think I can follow
You walk behind me
but I dont think I can lead
You walk around me
Please Dont walk around me
You know how dizzy I get

Machine head nation on fire! The best song in the world!!!


Well I see, I feel
On my way
You close your eyes, scared to think
You might see
A world that spends more to kill than to cure
Living, writhing, diseased, so unpure

It hardens me, the things I see
But I won't break. it gives me strength

Our suffering. won't always be
We'll dominate. this nation on fire

The media it
Blinds out eyes
A people divided
And force fed lies
The black and white societies corrode
Warring, hating, blind, a rage explodes

So take my hand, across this land
I won't go down, stand my ground

Our suffering. won't always be
We'll dominate. this nation on fire

This nation's built on fighting war after war
And for my brothers, I will fight and stand for
'Cause I won't break. Your truth is fake
If blood ran red, you'd leave me for dead
A nation on fire
A nation on fire

You tell me peace, well I hear gunshots all night
The scars I have, I've earned 'cause I've had to fight
An endless pain, and it won't change
We just sat, and watched this world die
A nation on fire
A nation on fire

Papa Roach: "Broken Home"

Broken Home
All Alone
Broken Home
All Alone

I can't seem to fight these feelings
I'm caught in the middle of this
And my wounds are not healing
I'm stuck in between my parents
I wish I had someone to talk to
Someone I could confide in
I just want to know the truth
I just want to know the truth

Want to know the truth

Broken Home
All Alone

I know my mother loves me
But does my father even care
If I'm said or angry?
You were never ever there
When I needed you
I hope you regret what you did
I think I know the truth
Your father did the same to you

Did the same to you

I'm crying day and night now
What is wrong with me?
I cannot fight now
I feel like I'm in pain
Crying day and night now
What is wrong with me?
I cannot fight now
I feel like I'm in pain
A weak link

Broken home
All alone

It feels bad to be alone
Crying by yourself, living in a broken home
How could I tell it so all you could feel it
Depression strikes hard like my old earth would tell it
To me, her son
She told me I'm the one
Pain bottled up about to blow like a gun
Stories that I tell are non-fiction
And you can't take it back 'cos it's already done

Broken home
Broken home

Can't seem to fight these feelings
Caught in the middle of this
My wounds are not healing
Stuck between my parents

Broken home
Broken home
