Recently best opening line:
-I don't mind
if my heart don't beat and the sun don't shine.-
Brandi Carlile "Losing Heart"

-I thought I saw the devil
in the branches of a tree
It was just imagination
But he looked a lot like me
On Stormy Down
The cold moon drew strange faces
on a slowly changing cloud
It looked like God the father
and I shouted right out loud
On Stormy Down-
The Strawbs "Stormy Down"

-You can leave your troubles at the door
we have ways to make you cheer
As long as you're not sick or poor
a negro or a queer-
Pete Sinfield for PFM "Is My Face on Straight?"

Just a couple that popped into my head.

Roxy- with a couple of clicks you can be listening to most of these songs within seconds. Might be low fi but you can get the gist.
This forum are one of the places I find new(to me)music.
So glad you're gone
So glad you're gone
Please don't come back
Please don't come back

Sometimes you just have to say it...
"So Glad" from David Lynch's "Crazy Clown Time"
