[Raynyky]

Saw this online today and thought it would be interesting. What are some of your favorite or instantly recognizable opening lines. 
The Joker -Steve Miller.

Some people call me the space cowboy

[BeatleloverKT]

You and I travel to the beat of a different drum

Oh, can’t you tell by the way I run
Every time you make eyes at me? Whoa

Different drum, Stone Poneys

[Vexed]

There's another world inside of me that you may never see
There's secrets in this life that I can't hide
Somewhere in this darkness there's a light that I can't find
Well maybe it's too far away, yeah
Or maybe I'm just blind
So hold me when I'm here, right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared and love me when I'm gone
Everything I am and everything in me
Wants to be the one you wanted me to be

"When I'm Gone" - 3 Doors Down

The song wasn't about war, it was about being away from anyone you love for whatever reason, but they dedicated to all the men and women serving in the United States military. It was at the time of the Iraq war.

Video filmed on USS George Washington where they performed for them.

Nobody gonna take my car

Like a driving power

Big fat tires and everything

It was a cold and wet December day

When we touched the ground at JFK

Here I stand, head in hand

Turn my face to the wall

If she’s gone I can’t go on

Feeling two foot small

You know the day destroys the night 

Night divides the day 

Tried to run

Tried to hide …

Break On Through To The Other Side - The Doors

[BeatleloverKT]

Got a call from an old friend

We used to be real close

Said he couldn’t go on the American way

Closed the shop, sold a house, bought a

ticket to the west coast

Now he gives them a stand-up routine in LA

My life, Billy Joel

"Sunday Will Never Be The Same" - Spanky & Our Gang

"I remember Sunday morning
I would meet him at the park
We'd walk together hand in hand
Till it was almost dark
Now I wake up Sunday morning
Walk across the way to find
Nobody waiting for me
Sunday's just another day"

Love hurts, love scars

Love wounds and marks

Any heart

Not tough or strong enough
To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain

Love hurts, Nazareth

You love her
But she loves him
And he loves somebody else

Or should I say
She once had me

Smiling faces sometimes

Pretend to be your friend

Smiling faces show no traces

Of the evil that lurks within (Can you dig it)

Smiling faces sometimes

Undisputed Truth

[MaVolta]

They like to get you in a compromising position

Well, they like to get you there and smile in your face 

Yeah, they think they’re so cute when they got you in that condition

And I say

I looked out this morning and the sun was gone 

Turned on some music to start my day

I lost myself in a familiar song

I closed my eyes and I slipped away

Well everybody’s talking and no one says a word

Everybody’s making love and no one really cares

Most peculiar Mama, roll 😎

[Raynyky]

Woke up this morning with a wine glass in my hand
Whose wine? What wine?
Where the hell did I dine?
Must have been a dream
I don't believe where I've been
Come on, let's do it again

Peter Frampton-Do You Feel Like Do

[BeatleloverKT]

A little less conversation, a little more action, please

All this aggravation ain’t satisfactioning me

A little less conversation, Elvis

A hot summer night fell like a net
I've gotta find my baby yet
I need you to soothe my head
Turn my blue heart to red

Bad Case of Loving You-Robert Palmer

How could he know this new dawn’s light would change his life forever

Set sail to sea, but pulled off course by the light of golden treasure

Might as well go for the hat trick! 🏒🥅 🙂

[BeatleloverKT]

Now I’ve watched you sitting there

Seen the passers-by all stare

Like you have no place to go

But there’s so much they don’t know

about Apple Scruffs

Apple Scruffs, George Harrison

[MaVolta]

Lay beside me

Tell me what they’ve done

Speak the words I wanna hear

To make my demons run

"At this Moment" - Billy Vera and the Beaters

"What did you think I would do at this moment
When you're standing before me
With tears in your eyes
Trying to tell me that you have found you another
And you just don't love me no more"
