I hate when this happens!
A friend of mine & I were talking about music we used to listen to, and he mentioned a heavy metal song from the 80s (probably a pop-metal hair band) he's trying to find. The chorus went:
"Love to break your heart, love to break your heart...."
And then you know what happened - I can hear the song in my head, can't stop thinking about it, but don't know the rest of it. Damn him! Does anyone know its name OR group that did it?
That conversation made me think on..... there was a song that played on alternative stations around '93 or '94; it was popular for a short time and was gone. It had a line something like "...and all we do is dream...." but the clincher is that it featued the harmonica riff from Midnight Cowboy.
AND...
There were 3 songs in the mid 80s that are STILL haunting me. One was rather New Wave-ish; a woman singing, and it featurd a chorus that went "She's so stunning, she's so heavenly, she's so attractive ...."
The other one was by a girl band (I think; it was a woman singing) were they sang about a woman meeting someone in a club. The chorus went ... "She's only twenty and she's....something something blah blah blah." That's all I've got to go on. It is so pathetic.
The 3rd was a song I heard on a local Dallas community station, so it might have just been a local band. It was what they might call 'ambient' or 'trip-hop'. It was kind of scary and creepy, it was just a woman repeating over and over "Come... and relax" with a synthesizer or theramin in the bacground. Over and over I tell ya! But it was an amazing sounding thing, very moody and made you think.....
Finally, there was a country song I'd listen to in the 1970s when I was a little kid, about a boy who loved his little toy riding horse, then he meets a girl he likes and he never plays with the horse again. Sounds dumb, but is really sad in that way that only country can be. Does anyone know THIS song?
It's not the Grand Canyon or the ocean that can make you feel small, it's stupid stuff like this. Help me out, I'll help you out...
