trying to figure out a songe title dammit

uh, y'know, the sounds that sound good together... sometimes... and sometimes sounds like the disgusting "squish squish" sound Slicker's mom makes whenever she walks

trying to figure out a songe title dammit

Post by mabudon »

fuckin STOOOPID song has lodged in my head and won't come out til I can figure out what the FUCK it is..

The chorus of it is either at/til/something "the end of the line" and that gets repeated a few times over each chorus- it's all def-leppard sounding, high-pitched (maybe falsetto even)

Song is from early 80's IIRC

It gets used a lot in ads, or used to, and it's buggin the FUCK outta me- White Lion or something maybe?? ANY help would be sweet :mabs:

Yep, Sambo's right. IIRC, that song was also used in the "Knocked Up" trailer.

I've had a song stuck in my head for a few years now and I don't know the title of it. It was used in HBO promos a few years back. The chorus goes something like "Not algebra, or calculus, I'll take a crack at this". Anyone know it?

nope, not the Wilburys, that's the one every answer has started with and I KNOW that tune, ain't the one- think more washed-out synth sound, and a really hi-pitched wimpy vocal delivery- one o' these days I'll figure it out dammit

I'm trying to remember it, but I keep going back to "Draw the line" by Aerosmith. He sings it in sort of a high pitched voice.

Do you remember any other lyrics?

No, but it's still kinda driving me nuts- I have a sinking feeling that I'm gonna hear it today in a car driving past so there's NO way to pick up anything past the part I DO know- I WILL figure it out eventually tho dammit :mabs:
