I'll put a line from a song up and some try to name the song or the artist which/whom it comes from. Then, put another line from a different song on. Yes, this has been done before and yes, it may be dull but it's Sunday afternoon and I'm bored to death. Here's the line:


"So please don't point and stare, we're just technologically impaired".


Enjoy :D! Oh and endless stupidity and questions = me.

I would hazard a guess at The Weakerthans... "Confessions..."

How about:

Ok, sorry...it was Red Weather by Duke Spirit.

A slightly easier one now...

I sit around and watch the tube
But nothing's on
Change the channels for an hour or two.

Well, this one I didn't know. So I googled it. "Freddy Krueger" by S.O.D. (Stormtroopers Of Death). I would not have figured it out.

You sick freak.

I believe that one was "You give Love a Bad Name" by Bon Jovi.
(Yes...I grew up in the 80's)

"What did I do to, deserve a fate, I didnt really want to get involved in this thing. Someone handed me this gun, and I gave it everything."
