So many brilliant lyrics - its worth reading this thread from the start.

Personal faves:

Fine time - Barney White stylings

Turn - I feel your presence everywhere, in the corner over there (BECAUSE the rest of the lyrics are so good). Same goes for 'why don't you piss off'

Lonesome Tonight.

Run Wild.

HURT - I am determined, that there will be, no more mistakes.

LOADs more

One from Monaco - Tell it to your sister & tell it to your brother, just how much you missed them, while you don't even bother. My kids LOVE singing along to that one in the car!

Personal favourite is "I stood there beside myself" (Perfect Kiss, for those that had forgotten)- simple but clever at the same time.

Doubt we will ever hear it again live at a NO gig, but there you go!

The days turned into months and years, I can't forget that you were here,I feel your presence everywhere, In the corner over there - Turn

Ijust can't help thinking what you've done to me, You built a wall of love and tore it right down in front of me, And you think you know what's going on You keep telling me that I am wrong I don't care about what you do But if you mess with me I'll get rid of you - Round And Round

I don't know what to say, you don't care anyway I'm a man in a rage, with a girl I betrayed - Crystal

Every man, and every woman Needs someone, So keep it coming, Keep it coming .... - Crystal

But if Jesus comes to take your hand I won't let go, I won't let go - Run Wild

I'm sitting here alone at night, my sleepless eyes are open wide. What do you want me to say? What we had has gone away. The sky is high, the road is long. Show me what I should have done. What do you want me to do? Take it all away from you? Turn your eyes from me. It's time for me to go across the hills and over the sea. I want you more than I know. -Turn

"Maybe I forgotten the names and addresses I ever known it's nothing I regret"

Just caught up with this thread. You can see by the fact that so many different lyrics have been mentioned just how awesome this band are. My own favourite hasn't been mentioned yet:

I feel so low I feel so humble Sometimes in life you take a tumble.

0 likes

then there's this one:

"How many times must I lose my way, hey How many words do I have to say, hey What can I do just to make you see That you're so good for a man like A man like me."

full of meaning, and to show that Barmey's still got it.

My favourite NO-line:

"Thoughts from above hit the people down below People in this world, we have no place to go."
