What's The Best Line In A Record?


Guest

Recommended Posts

Its not one line I know... but the last few lines of the The Drifter - Ray Pollard is just out of this world, as is the whole of the song as a matter of fact!

The end is the part of the tune that i reckon reaches its highest emotional intensity, if you dont feel a little of the gut wrenching emotions from it then you certainly ain't human!

 

"oohh I'm just a drifter I go from town to town, I'm just a drifter but I wasnt always down,

cos once i had a girl by my side, a love so strong that money couldnt buy no, no, no

but heaven called and took her away, out of my arms and left me to wander..."

 

 

All the lyrics to the whole song just get to me everytime, always has done...sheer emotion...

"I may be down and out and got holes in my shoes but I still feel as rich as Howard Hughes"

 

Love that line from Home is where the heart is by Bobby Womack.

 

"I got sunshine when the clouds are gray, when its cold outside I got the month of May" Not too many better opening lines that that I reckon.

Bloody hell Steve...I thought it was "don't send me no letters, no send me no postcards!!"

Well i`m glad I put it right for you Brian, nothing more embarrassing than singing the wrong words all these years.

Something for nothing is never worthwhile, I don't even want it on a free hold trial!

 

Not me, I enjoy being free and being Happy Go Lucky, Me

not just one line 

 

" Can you imagine a place where all that matters is the music

   D.J. plays and the party people lose it

   Singing ,Spinning and dancing around

   I like the soulful sound of the underground

   No pressure 

   No fear

   Nobody's in your business

   Nobody really cares

   Everyone is special and your the same

   Welcome to the Sanctuary "

 

  D.J. Oji & Una   Friday night in the Sanctuary

This old heart of mine always keeps me cryin'
The way you're treatin' me leaves me incomplete
You're here for the day, gone for the week
But if you leave me a hundred times
A hundred times I'll take you back
I'm yours whenever you want me
I'm not too proud to shout it, tell the world about it 'cause I
I love you-ou-ou
