"Ain't no sunshine when she's gone It’s not warm when she's away Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And she always gone too long Anytime she goes away
Wonder this time where she’s gone Wonder if she's gone to stay Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And this house just ain't no home Anytime she goes away" -Ain't No Sunshine, Bill Withers

"You can hang in a left or hang in a right The choice it is yours to do as you might The road is open wide to place your bidding Now, wherever you turn, wherever you go If you get it wrong, at least you can know There's miles and miles to put it back together!
And I'm heading out to the highway I got nothing to lose at all I'm gonna do it my way Take a chance before I fall A chance before I fall!
On the highway! On the highway!
Making a curve or taking the strain On the decline, or out on the wain Oh everybody breaks down sooner or later We'll put it to rights, we'll square up and mend. Back on your feet to take the next bend! You weather every storm that's coming atcha!
And I'm heading out to the highway I got nothin' to lose at all I'm gonna do it my way Take a chance before I fall Yes, I'm heading out to the highway, I got nothing to lose at all. I got nothing to lose at all!" Heading Out to the Highway, Judas Priest
"I do, I do anything for you You make my stormy clouds blue Inside out, I'm upside down Back to front I'm all around Don't cha leave me by myself I don't like it
Don't go. Please don't leave me Don't go in the mornin' Don't go. Please don't deceive me Don't take it away" -Don't Go, Judas Priest
"Well you’ve heard about love givin’ sight to the blind My baby’s lovin’ cause the sun to shine She’s my sweet little thang....she’s my pride and joy She’s my sweet little baby....I’m her little lover boy
Yeah I love my baby....heart and soul Love like ours won’t never grow old She’s my sweet little thang....she’s my pride and joy She’s my sweet little baby....I’m her little lover boy
Yeah I love my lady....she’s long and lean You mess with her....you’ll see a man get mean She’s my sweet little thang....she’s my pride and joy She’s my sweet little baby....I’m her little lover boy
Well I love my baby....like the finest wine Stick with her until the end of time She’s my sweet little thang....she’s my pride and joy She’s my sweet little baby....I’m her little lover boy" -Pride and Joy, Stevie Ray Vaughan

Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river You can hear the boats go by You can spend the night beside her And you know that she's half crazy But that's why you want to be there And she feeds you tea and oranges That come all the way from China And just when you mean to tell her That you have no love to give her Then she gets you on her wavelength And she lets the river answer That you've always been her lover And you want to travel with her And you want to travel blind And you know that she will trust you For you've touched her perfect body with your mind.
Suzanne, Leonard Cohen
IMO, it doesn't get any better than this.
His lines from Sisters of Mercy come close:
Oh the sisters of mercy, they are not departed or gone. They were waiting for me when I thought that I just can't go on. And they brought me their comfort and later they brought me this song. Oh I hope you run into them, you who've been travelling so long. Yes you who must leave everything that you cannot control. It begins with your family, but soon it comes around to your soul. Well I've been where you're hanging, I think I can see how you're pinned: When you're not feeling holy, your loneliness says that you've sinned.

I'll post the whole song ;D Sorry! lol
What a beautiful day (hey hey) I'm the king of all time And nothing is impossible In my all powerful mind
It was the fifth of November, when time it went back Some say that's impossible, but you and I never looked back And wasn't it incredible, so beautiful and above all Just to see the fuse get lit this time To light the real bonfire, for all time
What a beautiful day (hey hey) I'm the king of all time And nothing is impossible In my all powerful mind
I was drinking in the night club It felt good to be back When Hepburn said I love you And Flyn said, make mine a double jack Then we planned the revolution To make things better for all time And when the barman said that was crazy And ordered up a bottle of wine
What a beautiful day (hey hey) (x2) I'm the king of all time And nothing is impossible In my all powerful mind
In there on the big screen, every night I've seen The way all things could be For me, for me, etc........
(Chorus instrumental)
The news broke after midnight, That we pulled the temple down without a sound But the generals they were hiding out And the ministers, Well! They'd all gone to ground Wealth re-distribution, became the new solution So I got a paper bag, but you got the one with all the holes
What a beautiful day (hey hey) (x2) I'm the king of all time And nothing is impossible In my all powerful mind
That's because nothing is impossible In my own powerful mind
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Makes me feel all fuzzy inside! ;D

Whenever Swansea City FC win a match they play that song immediately and I listen to it as I leave the ground, the crowd sometimes sing it too "What a beautiful day hey hey...".

There was rain in our window, The FM set was ragged But she could talk, yeah, We learned to speak" -Orange County Suite, The Doors

Green Day - Extraordinary Girl (part lyrics)
She's an Extraordinary girl In an ordinary world And she can't seem to get away
He lacks the courage in his mind Like a child left behind Like a pet left in the rain
She's all alone again Wiping the tears from her eyes Some days he feels like dying She gets so sick of crying

gsteve this was one of Tupac's favorite songs
Nas - I Gave You Power
Damn! Look how muh-fuckers use a nigga Just use me for whatever the fuck they want I don't get to say shit Just grab me, just do what the fuck they want Sell me, throw me away Niggaz just don't give a fuck about a nigga like me right? Like I'm a f... I'm a gun, shit It's like I'm a motherfuckin gun I can't believe this shit.... Word up.. (word up..)
I seen some cold nights and bloody days They grab and me bullets spray They use me wrong so I sing this song 'til this day My body is cold steel for real I was made to kill, that's why they keep me concealed Under car seats they sneak me in clubs Been in the hands of mad thugs They feed me when they load me with mad slugs Seventeen precisely, one in my head They call me Desert Eagle, semi-auto with lead I'm seven inches four pounds, been through so many towns Ohio to Little Rock to Canarsie, livin harshly Beat up and battered, they pull me out I watch as niggaz scattered, makin me kill But what I feel it never mattered When I'm empty I'm quiet, findin myself fiendin to be fired A broken safety, niggaz place me in shelves under beds, so I beg for my next owner to be a thoroughbred Keep me full up with hollow heads
How you like me now? I go blaow It's that shit that moves crowds makin every ghetto foul I might have took your first child Scarred your life, crippled your style I gave you power I made you buck wild
Always I'm in some shit, my abdomen is the clip The barrel is my dick, uncircumcised Pull my skin back and cock me, I bust off when they unlock me Results of what happens to niggaz shock me I see niggaz bleedin runnin from me in fear, stunningly tears fall down the eyes of these so-called tough guys, for years I've been used in robberies, givin niggaz heart to follow me Placin peoples in graves, funerals made cause I was sprayed I was laid in a shelf, with a grenade Met a wrecked-up tech with numbers on his chest that say Five-two-oh-nine-three-eight-five and zero Had a serial defaced, hopin one day, police would place where he came from, a name or some sort of person to claim him Tired of murderin, made him wanna be a plain gun But yo I had some other plans, like the next time the beef is on I make myself jam right in my owner's han
Yo, weeks went by and I'm surprised Still stuck in the shelf with all the things that an outlaw hides Besides me it's bullets, two vests and then a nine There's a grenade in a box, and that tech that kept cryin Cause he ain't been cleaned in a year, he's rusty as clear He's bout to fall to pieces, cause of his murder career Yo, I can hear somebody comin in, open the shelf His eyes bubblin, he said, "It was on" I felt his palm troubled him shakin Somebody stomped him out, his dome was achin He placed me on his waist, the moment I've been waitin My creation was for blacks to kill blacks It's gats like me that accidentally, go off, makin niggaz memories But this time, it's done intentionally He walked me outside, saw this cat Cocked me back, said, "Remember me?" He pulled the trigger but I held on, it felt wrong Knowing niggaz is waiting in hell for 'im He squeezed harder, I didn't budge, sick of the blood Sick of the thugs, sick of wrath of the, next man's grudge What the other kid did was pull out, no doubt A newer me in better shape, before he lit out, he lead the chase My owner fell to the floor, his wig split so fast I didn't know he was hit, it's over with Heard mad niggaz screamin, niggaz runnin, cops is comin Now I'm happy, until I felt somebody else grab me Damn!

gsteve this was one of Tupac's favorite songs Its a good song, I didn't know it was one of Tupac's favourite songs, I thought Tupac thought Nas was biting him with that album. I know that Tupac respected Nas though.

Faith No More- A Small Victory
A hierarhcy Spread out on the nightstand The spirit of team Salvation is another chance A sore loser Yelling with my mouth shut
A cracking portrait The fondling of trophies The null of losing Can you afford that luxury? A sore winner But I'll just keep my mouth shut
It shouldn't bother me But it does
The small victories The cankers and medallions The little nothings They keep me thinking that someday I might beat you But I'll just keep my mouth shut
It shouldn't bother me But it does
IF I SPEAK AT ONE CONSTANT VOLUME AT ONE CONSTANT PITCH AT ONE CONSONANT RHYTHM RIGHT INTO YOUR EAR, YOU STILL WON'T HEAR, YOU STILL WON'T HEAR

Most people whan asked would find it really hard to say what their absolute favorite song of all time is- this is the one I would say most of the time, if asked. It's oof an album called The Serpents Egg, highly recommended if you want to chill out.
Dead Can Dance- Ullyses
John Francis Dooley Wipe the sleep from your eyes And embrace the light. You have slept now For a thousand years Beneath starless nights. And now its time for you To renounce the old ways And see a new dawn rise.
In former days The masks were raised When the god came down From off the mountain, And a sacrifice was made For they knew the day of wrath Was fast apporaching. Just like yesterday, before the war
John Francis Dooley The scapegoat has run All our sins are disowned, And now it's time for you To take off thy mask And cross the Rubicon.
If you and i were one Within the eyes of our designs It would still not change The fact of our leaving. For tonight we must leave With the first gentle breeze For the Isles of Ken we are assailing Just like ullyses, on an open sea. On an oddysey of self discovery

Cannon Fodder - Laura Veirs
I will not have a child, I will be wild And not produce meat for your slaughter No more cannon fodder
Company whip cracks at the break of dawn Back break work the whole day long They're coming for my daughter Innocent cannon fodder
Every war is brutal, stupid, expensive and mean If you take her, you also take me Hiding by the water Innocent cannon fodder

"I am a drifter on a hungry empty sea There is no one on earth to rescue me The winter storms they freeze me Summer burned alive I can't remember when another soul passed by
Marooned and stranded, on the Islands of the Damned There is no one on earth to take my hand There is no voice to speak, no soul for company The sun goes down like blood into the Western Sea
Alone and dying, and a thousand miles from home I know I never was so bvroken and alone, I searched the sky for God, shivered to the bone Drowned in sorrow, Lost in the Ozone
No hand for me, abandon me Wash over me, watch over me, drowned forever Alone and crying, and a thousand miles astray Alone upon the cruel sea, forsworn and cast away I turned my face to God, but his face was turned away
Lost in the Ozone, nothing left to say Lost in the Ozone, nothing left to say Nothing left to say, nothing left to say Wash over me" -Lost In the Ozone, Motörhead

Cause Jim Morrison was a crooner at heart The Doors-The crystal ship Before you slip into unconsciousness I'd like to have another kiss Another flashing chance at bliss Another kiss, another kiss The days are bright and filled with pain Enclose me in your gentle rain The time you ran was too insane We'll meet again, we'll meet again Oh tell me where your freedom lies The streets are fields that never die Deliver me from reasons why You'd rather cry, I'd rather fly The crystal ship is being filled A thousand girls, a thousand thrills A million ways to spend your time When we get back, I'll drop a line
