can you handle the answers?

so here are the answers from last week's music quotes. have fun!

1. Take another chance to find a distant sanity and turn your pain in truth. Take another chance to fight a different enemy and try to free it. lacuna coil -- daylight dancer. lacuna coil started the girl singer/death metal background before evanescence ever thought about it. and she's sexy and has a fantastic voice. i've seen them at the mascarade in atlanta and the one in tampa.

2. I've been uptight and made a mess, but I'll clean it up myself, I guess. Oh, the sweet smell of success. traveling wilburys -- handle with care. good stuff.

4.I can't hear what you're saying, what you're doing to me. Can't you see it would take the jaws of life to pry open your words. dishwalla -- charlie brown's parents. great song off the same album as that blue car song.

5.Late of Pablo Fanques Fair-what a scene Over men and horses hoops and garters
Lastly through a hogshead of real fire! the beatles -- for the benefit of mr. kite

6.Come on baby, now throw me a right to the chin.

11. And all them pin-up girls in that tinsel world never touched me like she can. It took another man's wife in the real world life to make this boy a man. harry chapin -- i wanna learn a love song. how can you go wrong with harry chapin?

12. There was not much more for us to talk about, whatever we had once was gone. So I turned my cab into the driveway, past the gate and the fine trimmed lawns. And she said we must get together, But I knew it'd never be arranged. again, harry chapin -- taxi, this time. good stuff.

15. April brings me tiny yellow flowers from the yard; she carries them with her tiny fingers wrapped around each one. She laughs when she picks a white one; she tries to blow away the seeds and then she smiles as she hands me one. this was sorta a trick one -- the song is april and me, by three crosses. i saw them at a christian retreat at lenor rhyne college in '98, and though i'm not into the music anymore i love the song because it's got my name in it.

19. And then she did it ... she stripped me half naked. And told me that her body was sacred. She said I could take it if I danced with her but somehow I knew that she was an Indian giver. bedroom dancing, by day one, off the cruel intentions soundtrack. these are my favorite lyrics from the song.

20. Like the naked leads the blind, I know I'm selfish; I'm unkind.

22. The night is beckoning although I have nowhere to go but home.
Feels good to be alone With every turn comes a new frame of mind if I could frame my mind. Where would it hang? eve 6 -- open road song. when i had my maverick, this song would make me drive 110 mph.

23. Go away then, damn you, Go on and do as you please, You ain't gonna see me gettin' down on my knees. I'm undecided, and your heart's been divided, you've been turning my world upside down. mike's right on this one too. i love james taylor.

24. I have searched both far and wide And I've explored the deepest caverns of my mind. To try and find an explanation why I get this funny feeling deep inside. When I think about my life I wanna kiss myself good-bye. sugarhigh, by coyote shivers -- off empire records.

26. Then the Captain made a pass at the Swiss Miss Girl Tryin' to show her his affection. She screamed for help And when she did ... Mr. Clean came to her protection. trials and tribulations, by the dude of life and phish. funny funny song. who comes up with these things?

27. Bash in my brain, and make me scream with pain, Then kick me once again,
And say we'll never part. I know too well I'm underneath your spell, So, darling, if you smell something burning, it's my heart. Excuse me! masocism tango, by tom lehrer. we've all heard me rave about tom lehrer.

28. With regard to my newborn arachnid kids, there's something we must discuss: perhaps we should sit them down and explain how not to be saved. Perhaps you could help me to demonstrate how your center can keep up its sickening spin. okgo -- hello, treacherous friends. seen twice as the opening band for tmbg. the only opening band that i really liked (frank black sucks in concert, but cornmo' was okay)

31.Sunshine, daydream, walking in the tall trees, going where the wind goes. Blooming like a red rose, breathing more freely, Ride our singin', I'll walk you in the morning sunshine. sugar magnolias, grateful dead. seen april 7, 1995. the same year they tore down tampa stadium and jerry died. this was the song that my best friend (and mother of my goddaughter) went around singing. our hippie names were "daisy" and "rainbow," respectively.

i met Cristina Scabbia of Lacuna Coil. she is hot and her voice does things to me that my therapist tells me not to talk about in public. she's short....actually the whole band is short, except the drummer.
