Song Quote Game 7

Cheers!

This is not a metal song and though its traditional, it has been covered by many pop artists from all over the world:

"Sé do bheatha, a bhean ba léanmhar, do ba é ár gcreach tú bheith i ngéibheann,
do dhúiche bhreá i seilbh méirleach, is tú díolta leis na Gallaibh"

 

I think I saw Sinead sing this a capella and it's (I thinK) You are Welcome Home?

 

Correct! Over to DS

 

Black brother in an open sports car pulled over by suspicious officer,
uniform man got a nervous partner,
weapon was pulled from a shoulder holster.

White jogger see the roadside gangsta,
heart beat just a little bit faster,
rasta man speaking in the island patios,
gonna give you the righteous answer.


Hopefully not too obscure

 

What Colour is God? - Fish/Phish

 

Yep, have a shiny balloom on a stick

 

Finally, I get a balloon on a stick.
/shake it around until it pops

I feel stormy weather
Moving in, about to begin
Hear the thunder
Don't lose your head

Original artist, if you please.

EDIT: Spelling snafu.

Here have another one, I got loads in just for you

 

Hint: R&B duet of former back-up singers.

 

Serious Disco here... (an embarrassing time in my life):

It's Raining Men by The Weather Girls

 

There's nothing wrong with disco, man. Halleluah, you're correct.

 

For there's weak winged young sparrows that starve in the winter
Broken young children on the wheels of the winners

Hint time, a later line...

From the end of the world to your town.

So nobody knows Elton... that was the title song from the first album to ever debut as number one of the British Pop Albums chart.

Perhaps this will be familiar to the true rock fans. As a hint, the singer is THE greatest female vocalist in rock history (and if you don't agree, you're wrong):

But all I know is that she left you,
And you swear that you just don’t know why,
But you know, honey I’ll always,
I’ll always be around if you ever want me

 

I completely agree, but is she the original artist of this song?

Janis Joplin - Cry Baby

 

Written by Bert Berns, originally sung by Garnet Mimms (although I did specify female, so that leaves Garnet out).

Take it away Mesmero.

 

I turn around to look at you, you light a cigarette
I wish I had the guts to bum one, but we’ve never met

 

Bah! I don't even really like Tom Waits. But I don't know the title.

 

Pretty impressive if you recognise the guy by these two lines if you don't like him.

Since nobody was able to come up with the title by now (and I doubt someone will), I'll let you have the turn. The song was I hope I don't fall in love with you. My apologies to anyone who knew this and didn't have time to reply.

 

Well, I didn't really earn this, but...

No dark sarcasm in the classroom

If this takes more than a couple of hours, I'll be very disappointed.
