The other day, I posted something in another thread where I asked members what was the first word that popped into their head when they saw/heard the word "cheap"?
My first response was from
Whoknows and his reply was "perfume". That phrase, cheap perfume, made me instantly think of Journey's DON'T STOP BELIEVING. The post went in a different direction from what I planned but it was so much fun! Example, there were other responses to the word "cheap" that included shoddy, floozy and several more and
huxley999 was able to cite songs with those words in them!
Let's pick a RANDOM word and see if a song comes to mind. My guess is not every word will trigger a song to pop into our heads, but who knows. If you would kindly post a few lines of the song that reflects "the word", the name of the song and the artist and if you like, a YouTube link to the song. PLEASE ATTACH YOUR SONG TO THE PARTICULAR "WORD OF THE DAY".
Let's have some musical fun!

I know he's there, but I just had to call
Don't leave me hanging on the TELEPHONE
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
I heard your mother, now she's going out the door
Did she go to work or just go to the store?

If I don't get your calls, then everything goes wrong
I want to tell you something you've known all along
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
I had to interrupt and stop this conversation
Your voice across the line gives me a strange sensation
I'd like to talk when I can show you my affection
Oh, I can't control myself

Well I'll be damned
Here comes your ghost again
But that's not unusual
It's just that the moon is full
And you happened to call
And here I sit, hand on the TELEPHONE
Hearing a voice I'd known
A couple of light years ago
Heading straight for a fall
As I remember your eyes
Were bluer than robin's eggs
"My poetry was lousy, " you said
Where are you calling from?
A booth in the Midwest
Ten years ago
I bought you some cuff links
You brought me something
We both know what memories can bring
They bring diamonds and rust
Well you burst on the scene
Already a legend
The unwashed phenomenon
The original vagabond
You strayed into my arms
And there you stayed
Temporarily lost at sea
The Madonna was yours for free
Yes the girl on the half-shell
Could keep you unharmed
Now I see you standing
With brown leaves falling around
An' snow in your hair
Now you're smiling out the window
Of that crummy hotel over Washington Square
Our breath comes out white clouds
Mingles and hangs in the air
Speaking strictly for me
We both could have died then and there
Now you're telling me
You're not nostalgic
Then give me another word for it
You, who are so good with words
And at keeping things vague
'Cause I need some of that vagueness now
It's all come back too clearly
Yes I loved you dearly
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
I've alredy paid
Hello, how are you?
Have you been alright through all those lonely
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely nights?
That's what I'd say, I'd tell you everything
If you pick up that TELEPHONE, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, how you feelin'?
Are you still the same, don't you realize the things we did
We did were all for real, not a dream
I just can't believe they've all faded out
Of view, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh
Blue days, black nights
I look into the sky (the love you need ain't gonna see you through)
And I wonder why (the little things you planned ain't comin' true)
Oh, oh, TELEPHONE line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Oh, oh, TELEPHONE line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Okay, so no one's answering
Well, can't you just let it ring a little longer
Longer, longer oh, I'll just sit tight
Through shadows of the night
Let it ring forever more, oh
Blue days, black nights, doo wah doo lang
I look into the sky (the love you need ain't gonna see you through)
And I wonder why (the little things you planned ain't comin' true)
Oh, oh, TELEPHONE line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Oh, oh, TELEPHONE line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Oh, oh, TELEPHONE line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Oh, oh, TELEPHONE line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight

Sitting here wasted and wounded
At this old piano
Trying hard to capture
The moment this morning I don't know
'Cause a bottle of vodka
Is still lodged in my head
And some blonde gave me nightmares
I think that she's still in my bed
As I dream about movies
They won't make of me when I'm dead
With an ironclad fist
I wake up and french kiss the morning
While some marching band keeps
Its own beat in my head
While we're talking
About all of the things that I long to believe
About love and the truth and what you mean to me
And the truth is, baby you're all that I need
I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
Oh, I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on a bed of roses
Well I'm so far away
That each step that I take is on my way home
A king's ransom in dimes I'd given each night
Just to see through this pay PHONE
Still I run out of time
Or it's hard to get through
Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you
I'll just close my eyes and whisper
Baby blind love is true
I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
Oh, I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on a bed of roses
Well, this hotel bar's hangover whiskey's gone dry
The barkeeper's wig's crooked
And she's giving me the eye
I might have said yeah
But I laughed so hard I think I died, ooh yeah
Now as you close your eyes
Know I'll be thinking about you
While my mistress she calls me
To stand in her spotlight again
Tonight I won't be alone
But you know that don't mean I'm not lonely
I've got nothing to prove
For it's you that I'd die to defend
I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
Oh, I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down
I wanna lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down
On a bed of roses

This happened once before
When I came to your door
No reply
They said it wasn't you
But I saw you peep through
Your window
I saw the light
I saw the light
I know that you saw me
'Cause I looked up to see
Your face
I tried to TELEPHONE
They said you were not home
That's a lie
'Cause I know where you've been
And I saw you walk in
Your door
I nearly died
I nearly died
'Cause you walked hand in hand
With another man
In my place
If I were you, I'd realize that I
Love you more than any other guy
And I'll forgive the lies that I
Heard before, when you gave me no reply
I tried to telephone
They said you were not home
That's a lie
'Cause I know where you've been
And I saw you walk in
Your door
I nearly died
I nearly died
'Cause you walked hand in hand
With another man

i remember you used to wake up kissed me and smiled
like it was a blessing I happened to be in your life
one day out of blue i saw the coldness in your eyes
you say nothing's changed without having looked at me twice
night after night you made me believe your arms were home
you said you are right here you ain’t going no where
Violently, silently I thought you should do no harm
Suddenly mindfully you changed your plan boy tell me SINCE when
i hate to say your beauty's been a drug to my mind
the slightest change on your face could set me on fire
after all i still want the things that I can not have
so i fell in the same trap i had always realised
night after night u made me believe your arms were home am
You said you are right here you ain’t going no where
Violently, silently I thought you should do no harm
Suddenly mindfully you changed your plan boy tell me SINCE when
our differences are growing a wall between our kinds
and it stopped us to look through to the other side
we have no more love to make this compromise
so i turn to myself and see what's going wrong inside
i see my blurry distant hopes
i see my swinging solitude
confine myself in a righteous role
fret alone i wanted to kill
i wasted all my summer clothes
since i stopped being a muse
facing what i fear the most
in you there's no more to accuse
Violently, silently I thought you should do no harm
Suddenly mindfully you changed your plan boy tell me SINCE when

I've been a-working from seven, seven, seven
To eleven, eleven every night
It kinda makes my life a drag, a drag, drag
Ah yeah! It makes it a drag
Baby, since I've been loving you
I'm about to lose, I'm about to lose, lose my worried mind
Oh yeah
Just one more, just one more, ooh, yeah
Since I've been loving you, I'm gonna lose my worried mind

Ah, don't you know, I've been on my own
But I'm coming home.
And I'd like you to be there,
I feel a little cold in the air,
And you're not anywhere.
You're just another face, I used to know.
But there is still a chance to hold on to our love,
'Cos I gave you everything, everything I had.
Ooh, like it or not
You have done it this time
And like it or not, I've had enough.
Ooh, like it or not
There's a lot I could say
'Cos I've got a lot on my mind.
It won't be very long
You're just another face
That I once used to know
And I gave you everything,
But what have I got to show? Oh Oh
Oh, like it or not
You are out on the street
And like it or not
That's where you will stay.
Oh, like it or not
There's another thing darling,
Well I just could not stand another day
'Cos if you want to know,
That there is still a chance to hold on to our love
'Cos I gave you everything
Everything I had - Everything I had.
It's been a long, been a long long time
Since I held anybody, since I loved anyone.
Oh it's been a long, been a long long long time
But if I'm right or if I'm wrong, does it matter anyway?
It's been a long long long long time
Since I held anybody, since I loved anyone.
Ooh it's been a long long long long time
But if I'm right or if I'm wrong, does it matter anyway?
Ooh it's been a long long long long time
Since I held anybody, since I loved anyone.
Oh it's been a long, been a long long long time
I'm right, if I'm wrong, does it matter anyway?
It's been a long long, long long long time
Since I held anybody, since I held anyone.
Well, SINCE my baby left me
Well, I found a new place to dwell
Well, it's down at the end of Lonely Street
At Heartbreak Hotel
Where I'll be--where I get so lonely, baby
Well, I'm so lonely
I get so lonely, I could die
Although it's always crowded
You still can find some room
For broken-hearted lovers
To cry there in the gloom
And be so, where they'll be so lonely, baby
Well, they're so lonely
They'll be so lonely, they could die
Well, the bellhop's tears keep flowin'
And the desk clerk's dressed in black
Well, they've been so long on Lonely Street
Well, they'll never, they'll never get back
And they'll be so, where they'll be so lonely, baby
Well, they're so lonely
They'll be so lonely, they could die
Well now, if your baby leaves you
And you have a sad tale to tell
Just take a walk down Lonely Street
To Heartbreak Hotel
And you will be, you will be, you will be lonely, baby
You'll be so lonely
You'll be so lonely, you could die
Well, though it's always crowded
You still can find some room
For broken-hearted lovers
To cry there in the gloom
And they'll be so, they'll be so lonely, baby
They'll be so lonely
They'll be so lonely, they could die

The sun is shining, there's plenty of life
A new day is dawning sunny and bright
But after I've been crying all night the sun is cold
And the new day seems old
SINCE I lost my baby, oh SINCE I lost my baby
Look all the birds are singing and the children are playing
There's plenty of work and the bosses are paying
Not a sad word should a young heart be saying
But fun is a bore and with money I'm poor
SINCE I lost my baby (SINCE I lost my baby), SINCE I lost my baby (my baby)
Next time I'll be kinder, won't you please help me find her?
Someone just remind her (someone just remind her)
Of this love she left behind her
'Til I find her I'll be tryin' now ('til I find her I'll be tryin' now)
Ev'ry day I'm more inclined to find her
Try to incline to find her
Every time to find my baby
I've been a-looking ev'rywhere, baby
I really, really care
I care, I care, my determination is fading fast
Exploration is a thing of the past
I can't see my, my hope's gonna last
The good things are bad and what's happy it is sad, so sad, so sda, I'm sad
SINCE I lost my baby (SINCE I lost my baby)
SINCE I lost my baby (SINCE I lost my baby)
I feel so bad, ooh, I'll feel so sad, 'cause everything is a-wrong
(SINCE I lost my baby)
I know it's not true
What's gonna happen to me
(SINCE I lost my baby)
What's gonna happen to me
Don't know, I don't know, I don't know
I don't know, SINCE I lost my baby
I don't know, I don't know what to do without my girl, my girl, my girl
I don't know, SINCE I lost my baby
I can't find her nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere oh no
(I don't know, SINCE I lost my baby)
I can't find her nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
(I don't know, SINCE I lost my baby)
I can't find her nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere oh no
(I don't know, SINCE I lost my baby)

I get the same old dreams same time every night
Fall to the ground and I wake up
So I get out of bed, put on my shoes and in my head
Thoughts fly back to the breakup
These four wall are closing in
Look at the fix you put me in
SINCE you been gone
SINCE you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Could I be wrong
But SINCE you been gone
You cast your spell so break it
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
SINCE you been gone
So in the night I stand beneath the backstreet light
I read the words that you sent to me
I can take the afternoon,
the night time comes around too soon
You can't know what you mean to me
Your poison letter, your telegram
Just goes to show you don't give a damn
SINCE you been gone
SINCE you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Could I be wrong
But SINCE you been gone
You cast your spell so break it
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
SINCE you been gone
If you will come back
Baby, you know you'll never do wrong
SINCE you been gone
SINCE you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Could I be wrong
But SINCE you been gone
You cast your spell so break it
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Ever SINCE you been gone
SINCE you been gone
SINCE you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
SINCE you been gone
SINCE you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it

SLIP slidin' away
SLIP slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're SLIP slidin' away
I know a man
He came from my home town
He wore his passion for his woman
Like a thorny crown
He said Delores
I live in fear
My love for you's so overpowering
I'm afraid that I will disappear
SLIP slidin' away
SLIP slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're SLIP slidin' away
I know a woman
Became a wife
These are the very words she uses
To describe her life
She said a good day
Ain't got no rain
She said a bad day's when I lie in bed
And think of things that might have been
SLIP slidin' away
SLIP slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're SLIP slidin' away
And I know a father
Who had a son
He longed to tell him all the reasons
For the things he'd done
He came a long way
Just to explain
He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping
Then he turned around and headed home again
He's SLIP slidin'
SLIP slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're SLIP slidin' away
God only knows
God makes his plan
The information's unavailable
To the mortal man
We work our jobs
Collect our pay
Believe we're gliding down the highway
When in fact we're SLIP slidin' away
SLIP slidin' away
SLIP slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're SLIP slidin' away
SLIP slidin' away
SLIP slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're SLIP slidin' away

I slipped, I stumbled, I fell - Elvis
only registered users can see external links
I look at you and wham, I'm head over heels
I guess that love is a banana peel
I feel so bad and yet I'm feeling so well
I SLIPPED, I stumbled, I fell
One crazy kiss and bam, I head for the skies
I guess that love is like a cake of ice
You skate along but then you can never tell
I slipped, I stumbled, I fell
I never thought I'd get tricked
By you sweet talking lies
You've got a bag of tricks
And when you get busy
I got dazzled and dizzy
I fell like a ton of bricks
My knees are weak, my head is spinning around
I guess that love has turned me upside down
Thought I'd get hurt, but gee, it's turning out well
I slipped, I stumbled, I fell
50 ways to leave your lover - Paul Simon
only registered users can see external links
"The problem is all inside your head", she said to me
"The answer is easy if you take it logically
I'd like to help you in your struggle to be free
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover"
She said, "it's really not my habit to intrude
Furthermore, I hope my meaning won't be lost or misconstrued
But I'll repeat myself at the risk of being crude
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave your lover"
You just SLIP out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
Ooh, slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
You just listen to me
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
She said, "it grieves me so to see you in such pain
I wish there was something I could do to make you smile again"
I said, "I appreciate that and would you please explain
About the fifty ways"
She said, "why don't we both just sleep on it tonight?
And I believe in the morning you'll begin to see the light"
And then she kissed me and I realized she probably was right
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave your lover
You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Oh, you hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
Slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
You just listen to me
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free

I've got my clipboard, text books
Lead me to the station
Yeah, I'm off to the civil war
I've got my kit bag, my heavy boots
I'm runnin' in the rain
Gonna run till my feet are raw
SLIP kid, SLIP kid, second generation
And I'm a soldier at thirteen
SLIP kid, SLIP kid, realization
There's no easy way to be free
No easy way to be free
It's a hard, hard world
I left my doctor's prescription bungalow behind me
I left the door ajar
I left my vacuum flask
Full of hot tea and sugar
Left the keys right in my car
SLIP kid, SLIP kid, second generation
Only half way up the tree
SLIP kid, SLIP kid, I'm a relation
I'm a soldier at sixty-three
No easy way to be free
SLIP kid, SLIP kid
Keep away old man, you won't fool me
You and your history won't rule me
You might have been a fighter, but admit you failed
I'm not affected by your blackmail
You won't blackmail me
I've got my clipboard, text books
Lead me to the station
Yeah, I'm off to the civil war
I've got my kit bag, my heavy boots
I'm runnin' in the rain
Gonna run till my feet are raw
SLIP kid, SLIP kid, SLIP out of trouble
SLIP over here and set me free
SLIP kid, SLIP kid, second generation
You're slidin' down the hill like me

I've been lonely
I've been waiting for you
I'm pretending and that's all I can do
The love I'm sending
Ain't making it through to your heart
You've been hiding, never letting it show
Always trying to keep it under control
You got it down and you're well
On the way to the top
But there's something that you forgot
What about love
Don't you want someone to care about you
What about love
Don't let it SLIP away
What about love
I only want to share it with you
You might need it someday
I can't tell you what you're feeling inside
I can't sell you what you don't want to buy
Something's missing and you got to
Look back on your life
You know something here just ain't right
What about love
Don't you want someone to care about you
What about love
Don't let it SLIP away
What about love
I only want to share it with you
What about love
Don't you want someone to care about you
What about love
Don't let it SLIP away
What about love
I only want to share it with you

What you believe
You give and receive
Patiently wait
Or hurry towards fate
Tapped into time
With luck on your side
Ask no questions why
You just slip slide on by
No question why
You just slip slide on
Slip slide on by
Knock at your door
Gather your heart from the floor
When no answers come
Ever still
Never run
No question why
You just slip slide on
Slip slide on by
Sometimes I get the feelin'
That I might be with you tomorrow
Tomorrow…
Can't seem to find the lyrics...
I know the song good enough that I could probably get pretty close typing them out myself, but I'm too lazy today.
I'll say this...
"Who'd a thought, a one night stand,
Could turn into such a hot romance.
Mmmmmmmm but she did it to me...
I SLIPPED and fell in love.
I'm in love (I'm in love)
With the other woman..."
only registered users can see external links
Oh yeah
*I'm in love with the other woman
My life was fine (Yes it was)
Till she blew my mind
Aw shucks, I'm just the average guy
I fooled around a little on the side
Never thought it would amount to much
Never met a girl who's love was so tough
Who'd a thought a one night stand
Could turn into such a hot romance
Mm, when she did it to me
I SLIPPED and fell in love
(Repeat*)
Now I know the rules of the games
You hit it once then break away clean
I should have never gone back, I know
But I had to have just a little bit more
My friends laugh but that's alright
I may be a fool but I know what I like
Now I hate to have to cheat
But it feels better when I sneak
(Repeat*)
Somebody help me
(Repeat*)
Oh this affair is unique
All my life I never met such a freak
She keeps me goin' strong for so long
When I get home it's all gone
Makes me wanna grab my guitar
And play with it all night long
(Repeat*)
Tell me, has anybody else out there
Ever fell in love with the other woman
Oh with the other woman
Say I'm in love with the other woman
With the other woman, with the other woman
I'm in love, sure 'nough in love

You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips
And there's no tenderness like before in your fingertips
You're trying hard not to show it
But baby, baby I know it
You lost that lovin' feelin'
Whoa, that lovin' feelin'
You lost that lovin' feelin'
Now it's gone, gone, gone, whoa-oh
Now there's no welcome look in your eyes when I reach for you
And now you're starting to criticize little things I do
It makes me just feel like crying
'Cause baby, something beautiful's dyin'
You lost that lovin' feelin'
Whoa, that lovin' feelin'
You lost that lovin' feelin'
Now it's gone, gone, gone, whoa-oh
Baby, baby, I'd get down on my knees for you
If you would only love me like you used to do, yeah
We had a love, a love, a love you don't find everyday
So don't, don't, don't, don't let it SLIP away
Baby, baby, baby, baby
I beg you please, please, please, please
I need your love, need your love
I need your love, I need your love
So bring it on back, so bring it on back
Bring it on back, bring it on back
Bring back that lovin' feelin'
Whoa, that lovin' feelin'
Bring back that lovin' feelin'
'Cause it's gone, gone, gone
And I can't go on, whoa-oh
Bring back that lovin' feelin'
Whoa, that lovin' feelin'
Bring back that lovin' feelin'
'Cause it's gone, gone, gone
If there's something strange
In your neighborhood
Who you gonna call?
GHOSTBUSTERS!
