name that tune #108 and #109

soma

ok 1st one is a song i hear on 'the phantom' alot. it's a girl singing (great voice), and most of the opening sentences begin with the word 'sometimes', so hey, that might be the name of the song. one of the 1st lines is 'sometimes i find it so amusing' or sommat like that.. and there's lots of mentions of "did u hear the bedroom door wasn't close, they forgot to close the door...' something like that.

the other one... i think this in an irish band.... lyrics are something like "don't i love u like u should... don't i treat u like u want' that kinda stuff...

suggestions please!

heard that "sometimes" choon just 20 mins ago & i thought the same thing.... its a cool song, "sometimes i like to get high...". could be that Heather Nova person? just a guess tho.

Ok i need some lyrical help too people..
A song which goes...
"riding on the path we made to union square"
"everybody hit the ground i think i might have missed my calling everybody turn around the lights about to change....."

polarbelly

the first quote is from that song...'dont you wanna ride in my, survival car'
so i presume the song is called 'survival car' but i dont know who its by

atonal

Survival Car is "Fountains of Wayne" on their self titled album. The newer cd is "Utopia Parkway" a really great power pop album as well.

Cheers people!

now I have some and I know I will feel really dumb when I get the answers but I keep hearing these tunes when they are being played by "the phantom" so it dosent tell me what they are

earlier this evening:

"smiling irish eyes, yankee stars and stripes
back home where its safe
waiting for earthquakes...."
ends with alot of "nanananana"

and the one with all the cheesy backing vocals
fragmented lyrics "...cover version of love" and
".... bitter taste of saccherine"

DerekD Goldfish

Atonal the song youre talking about is bad cover version by pulp

Vert

that Yankie stars and stripes song is pulp??

atonal

I assueme the "saccherine" song is the Pulp cover? which would explain why it is at once familiar and non-descript. Who did the original.

Uncle Neddy

There is no original. The song isn't a cover version. The title of the song is 'Bad Cover Version'.title

atonal

allright now I feel really dumb
