    the lyrics start out 'if i cut your arms and cut off your legs, would you love me anyway' or something like that.
    in the middle of the song it goes real thrashy and sounds a bit like metallica's fade to black then it goes back to the chunky riff.
    it might have been inspired by that movie 'boxing helena', i think he sings the name helena in the outro.
    People.. please remember a Google of a couple of words never hurt. Simply googling "if i cut your arms lyrics" gave me this!
    MISFITS LYRICS

    "Helena"

    If I cut off your arms and cut off you legs would you still love me anyway?
    If you're bound and you’re gagged, draped and displayed would you still love me anyway?
    Why don't you love me anyway?
    Why don't you love me anyway?

    If I cut off your arms and cut off you legs would you still love me anyway?
    If you're bound and you’re gagged, draped and displayed would you still love me anyway?
    Why don't you love me anyway?
    Why don't you love me anyway?
    Why don't you love me anyway?

    Cutting with a knife,
    Blood is spilling everywhere
    She will be my wife
    Secondary spine,
    Incisions must be accurate
    I know just what to do
    My hands are trembling I can't spare
    To slip up with this knife…

    Her beauty so illogical
    The beast comes gliding in
    Hideous chameleon
    She's stripped down to her skin
    Dance to the burning flame
    Pleasure exhumes the pain
    The night bursts into flame…

    Dance, Helena, Dance

    Whoa…

    If I cut off your arms and I cut off your legs would you still love me anyway?
    There's a spot on the floor where your limbs used to be
    And I close the door on my fantasies
    Why don't you love me anyway?
    (Fantasies)
    Why don't you love me anyway?
    (Fantasies)
    Why don't you love me anyway?
    (Helena!)
    Why don't you love me anyway?
    (Helena...!)

    PS - that song sounds very cheery and upbeat! :D

    Anybody know the name of the song in this extremely funny and also quite scary video clip?

    Sounds very much like Herb Alpert playing. Don't know the name of the tune.

    **edit**
    Checked - it's 'Tijuana Taxi'.

    hey all,, there is a really cool piece of music atthe start of young guns, which is repeated at the end in more detail. does any one know what it is.

    also there is a piece of music repeated a few times during the second film if anyone knows?


  • Registered Users Posts: 43,923 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    What about the kinda dance-ish song making it rounds very often right now on the radio with:

    "Whatcha gonna do with those stars in your eyes?"

    Sounds like The Streets but thought i heard it was Junior Jack. Can't find it using lyrics on Google.

    This is going to be incredibly vague - just before Christmas I was in Frankfurt and saw a music video, but didn't get the name of the band or the song. So, it's a German band, female singer, one guy (possibly the drummer) has long black hair and a beard, the video was in the style of a 1920's dance club. Please. Please help me. :)

    Nope it ain't that one. That song was used in the beginning of the next episodes montage but it wasn't used in the actual scene. The music I'm looking for is getting irritatingly hard to track down...

    Ad on the box at the moment (I can't even remember what's been advertised) and the chorus goes "Say goodbyeee, say goodbyeee...."

    It's got a bit of a shoe gazer vibe off it.

    Anyone know it??

    *The ad's for this year's Jameson Film Festival actually.

    Hiya,

    I'm looking for the name of an artist who sings a cover version of Justin Timberlake's "My Love". Its a nice guitar version, and apparently its only on FM104. They said you could find it on the website but I've looked and looked and I must be blind 'cause I can't find it anywhere.

    Any ideas on the artist??

    Thanks

Any help is greatly appriciated!

    Joe Grushecky - 'Don't forget where you're coming from'?

    Does the singer sound like he might have played with Springsteen?
