there is so much amazing music out there.
and surely all of us have heard lines in songs that really stand out to us!

.. so what is your favourite line in music, and what song is it from? alternatively, what is the single line that means the most to you personally, and why? list whatever songs come to mind!

i'll start with a line from 'Casanova Can Go Jump' by Blue Sky Summer:
"Dance with me, but mind my sleeve; that's where I keep my heart."

[metalthrashin'mad]

Of course I don't have one single line that stands above all others as a favourite, but this came to mind:

The opening line from Travel, by The Gathering: "Melodic stanzas symphonizing their way through your weary head"

[jerseymackem]

Yes I know it's soppy, but I was listening to Mr. Blue Sky by ELO just after my cousin was born, and the line 'Hey you, with the pretty face, welcome to the human race' nearly made me cry!

[Guitarded]

It would be nice.... to have a blow job.

[Greenlaner]

"If it keeps on raining, the levee's gonna break"

[JK471993]

I say Charles don't you ever crave to appear on the front of the Daily Mail
Dressed in your mother's bridal veil?
The Queen Is Dead - The Smiths


I'm spellbound, oh ... but a woman divides
And the hills are alive with celibate cries
These Things Take Time - The Smiths


Sir leads the troops
Jealous of youth
Same old suit since 1962

He does the military two-step
Down the nape of my neck
The Headmaster Ritual - The Smiths

[BefuddledPenguin]

I was looking for a job and then I found a job, and heaven knows I'm miserable now.

Another Smiths fan here

[Fward]

I know it's a bit soppy but:
I don't want another pretty face
I don't want just anyone to hold
I don't want my love to go to waste
I want you and your beautiful soul

from Jesse McCartney - beautiful soul

[IanDangerously]

We learned more from a three minute record, baby, than we ever learned in school. - Springsteen

Your heart just wants to rock when it can barely beat at all, your soul is trying to run but all your body does is crawl - Steinman

[gagaslilmonsteruk]

Was it just the margherita's or are you talking to me? - Cheryl Cole in an old Girls Aloud song "Wake Me Up"

Little girl with blue eyes, there's a hole in your heart. And one between your legs. You've never had to wonder which one he's going to fill, in spite of what he said.

Little Girl With Blue Eyes - Pulp

[-aimz]

The first that springs to mind is in Dishes by Pulp - 'And I'm not worried that I will never touch the stars
cos stars belong up in heaven
and the earth is where we are.'

I have countless others but I've just woken up and my brain isn't functioning.

[Miracle Day]

Currently it's..

"Hot girls have problems to, we're just like you, except we're hot hot hot hot"

[Vixen47]

All-American Rejects - Move Along
The only reason I listen to the song is for the line: "speak to me"

[arnoob]

At the moment it is ''Cause baby,there ain't no mountain high enough'' from Marvin Gaye's, 'Ain't No Mountain High Enough'

[ForensicShoe]

'I've been down and I'm wondering why, these little black clouds, keep walking around with me, with me'

Stereophonics - Maybe Tomorrow

'Running, down corridoors through, automatic doors, got to get to you, got to see this through. First night of your life, curled up on your own, looking at you now, you would never know.'

Athlete - Wires

[illusionz]

"And I ain't talkin bout no fancy mansion or no yacht
Just a quarter pound of pot on my fourty acre lot"

[StillIll]

"I know I believe in nothing but it is my nothing" Manic Street Preachers "Faster" always sticks with me.

"I noticed you, you stuck out like a sore thumb, the most beautiful sore thumb I'd ever seen" The Maccabees "About your dress" it's such a sweet line.

"Well now, I ain't no hero, that's understood, All the redemption I can offer, girl, is beneath this dirty hood, With a chance to make it good somehow, Hey, what else can we do now?" Springsteen "Thunder Road"

"Someone gets excited in a chapel yard and catches a bouquet, Another lays a dozen white roses on a grave" Audioslave "Be yourself" Particularly prominent to me as it represents that moment when you feel the world should stop to be sad (like after a death) but it just carries on turning.

[Reagan Smash]

"Baby, baby, baby, OH" - Justin Bieber.

"Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup,
They slither wildly as they slip away across the universe" - The Beatles, Across the Universe.
