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!
Highway run
Into the midnight sun
Wheels go round and round
You're on my mind
Restless hearts
Sleep alone tonight
Sending all my love
Along the wire
They say that the road ain't no place to start a family
Right down the line it's been you and me
And lovin' a music man ain't always what it's supposed to be
Oh, girl, you stand by me
I'm FOREVER yours
Faithfully
Circus life
Under the big top world
We all need the clowns
To make us smile
Through space and time
Always another show
Wondering where I am
I'm lost without you
And being apart ain't easy on this love affair
Two strangers learn to fall in love again
I get the joy of rediscovering you
Oh, girl, you stand by me
I'm FOREVER yours
Faithfully
Faithfully
I'm still yours
I'm FOREVER yours
Ever yours
Faithfully

May God bless and keep you always,
May your wishes all come true,
May you always do for others
And let others do for you.
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung,
May you stay FOREVER young,
FOREVER young, FOREVER young,
May you stay FOREVER young.
May you grow up to be righteous,
May you grow up to be true,
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you.
May you always be courageous,
Stand upright and be strong,
May you stay FOREVER young,
FOREVER young, FOREVER young,
May you stay FOREVER young.
May your hands always be busy,
May your feet always be swift,
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift.
May your heart always be joyful,
May your song always be sung,
May you stay FOREVER young,
FOREVER young, FOREVER young,
May you stay FOREVER young.

When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall
We used to love while others used to play
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by
Some one else moved in from far away
Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small
And you don't ask the time of day
But you and I, our love will never die
But guess we'll cry come FIRST of May
The apple tree that grew for you and me
I watched the apples falling one by one
And I recall the moment of them all
The day I kissed your cheek and you were mine
Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small
And you don't ask the time of day
But you and I, our love will never die
But guess we'll cry come FIRST of May
When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall
Do do do do do do do do do
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by
Some one else moved in from far away
Silhouette of a perfect frame
Shadows of your smile will always remain
Beginner?s luck soon fades away, oh, baby
We go on, I will always stay
Long as I live (Long as I live, you will be my FIRST love)
My FIRST love (Girl, oh...)
Long as I live (You will by my FIRST love)
My FIRST love (And I'll choose you again)
I'll keep an old candy-coated Valentine
Memories of you when you were mine
A tarnished ring on a tarnished chain, yeah
Time can?t change it, come sun or rain, yeah
Long as I live (Long as I live, you'll be my FIRST love)
My FIRST love (My FIRST love, yeah, yeah, whoa, whoa)
Long as I live (Long as I live, ooh...)
My FIRST love (My FIRST love, always be)
Long as I live (Long as I live, you...)
My FIRST love (FIRST love, I choose you again, yeah)
Ooh, ooh, a tarnished ring on a tarnished chain, yeah...
Time can?t change it, come sun or rain
Long as I live (You will be my FIRST love)
My FIRST love (Oh...oh...) (Ooh...)
Long as I live (Yeah, baby)
My FIRST love (I can't change it, oh, time can?t change it, no, no, no)
Long as I live (Long, long, yeah)
My FIRST love (My FIRST love, yes, you are, yes, you are)
Long as I live (Shadows of your smile still remain)

When they gave out eyes like diamonds
That would shame the stars that shine
My darlin' my darlin'
You were the FIRST in line
When they gave out lips like honey
That hold a new thrill every time
My darlin' my darlin'
You were the FIRST in line
There may be others
that know you longer
Who pledge their hearts to you
But there's no other
could love you stronger
Any stronger than I do
Don't refuse me, say you'll choose me
I'm yours, oh please be mine
My darlin' say I'm your darlin'
The FIRST, and the last in line
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I would climb any mountain
Sail across a stormy sea
If that's what it takes me, baby
To show you how much you mean to me
[Pre-Chorus]
And I guess it's just the woman in you
That brings out the man in me
I know I can't help myself
You're all in the world to me
[Chorus]
(It feels like the FIRST time)
(Feels like the very FIRST time)
(It feels like the FIRST time)
(It feels like the very FIRST time)
[Verse 2]
I have waited a lifetime
Spent my time so foolishly
But now that I've found you
Together we'll make history
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know that it must be the woman in you
That brings out the man in me
I know I can't help myself
You're all that my eyes can see
[Bridge]
And it feels like the FIRST time
Like it never did before
Feels like the FIRST time
Like we've opened up the door
Feels like the FIRST time
Like it never will again
Never again
[Chorus]
(Feels like the FIRST time)
It feels like the FIRST time
(It feels like the very FIRST time)
Very FIRST, feels
(It feels like the FIRST time)
Oh, it feels like the FIRST time
(Feels like the very FIRST time)
[Bridge]
Open up the door
Won't you open up the door? Yeah
[Chorus]
(Feels like the FIRST time)
(And it feels like the very FIRST time)
(And it feels like the very FIRST time)
(It feels like the very FIRST time)
[Outro]
(And it feels like the FIRST time)
(It feels like the very FIRST time)
Oh, it feels
(Feels like the FIRST time)
Yeah, it feels like the FIRST time
(Feels like the very FIRST time)

I would have given you all of my heart
But there's someone who's torn it apart
And she's taken just all that I had
But if you want I'll try to love again
Baby, I'll try to love again but I know
The FIRST cut is the deepest
Baby, I know the FIRST cut is the deepest
When it come to being lucky she's cursed
When it come to loving me she's worst
I still want you by my side
Just to help me dry the tears that I've cried
And I'm sure gonna give you a try
And if you want I'll try to love again
Baby, I'll try to love again but I know
The FIRST cut is the deepest
Baby, I know the FIRST cut is the deepest
But when it come to being lucky she's cursed
When it come to loving me she's worst
I still want you by my side
Just to help me dry the tears that I've cried
But I'm sure gonna give you a try
'Cause if you want I'll try to love again
Baby, I'll try to love again but I know (woo!)
The FIRST cut is the deepest
Baby, I know the FIRST cut is the deepest
When it come to being lucky she's cursed
When it come to loving me she's worst

Guess mine is not the FIRST heart broken
My eyes are not the FIRST to cry
I'm not the first to know there's
Just no getting over you
You know I'm just a fool who's willing
To sit around and wait for you
But baby can't you see there's nothing else for me to do
I'm hopelessly devoted to you
But now there's no way to hide
Since you pushed my love aside
I'm outta my head hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
My head is saying fool forget him
My heart is saying don't let go
Hold on to the end, that's what I intend to do
I'm hopelessly devoted to you
But now there's no way to hide
Since you pushed my love aside
I'm outta my head hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
The FIRST time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the endless skies
The FIRST time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command my love
And the FIRST time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
And last till the end of time my love
The FIRST time ever I saw your face
Your face, your face

Some fellas look at the eyes
Some fellas look at the nose
Some fellas look at the size
Some fellas look at the clothes
I don't care if her eyes are red
I don't care if her nose is long
I don't care if she's underfed
I don't care if her clothes are worn
FIRST I look at the purse!
Some fellas like the smiles they wear
Some fellas like the legs that's all
Some fellas like the style of their hair
Want their waist to be small.
I don't care if their legs are thin
I don't care if their teeth are big
I don't care if their hair's a wig
Why waste time lookin' at the waistline?
FIRST I look at the purse!
A woman can be fat as can be,
kisses sweet as honey
But that don't mean a thing to me
If you ain't got no money
If the purse is fat....that's where it's at.
Some fellas like the way they walk
The way they swing and sway
Some fellas like the way they talk
Dig the things they say.
I don't care if they wobble like a...
or talk with a lisp
I still think I'm a good lover
if the dollar bills are crisp
FIRST I look at the purse!
FIRST I look at the purse!
FIRST I look at the purse!
FIRST I look at the purse!
I don't care if you got yourself a wrap
all I want is your pretty green cash
Bought me a suit, bought me a car
Want me to look like a hollywood star
Money, (Money!) I want money (Money!)
Baby, ain't no "why", baby (Money!)
I need money!
FIRST I look at the purse!
FIRST I look at the purse!
FIRST I look at the purse!
FIRST I look at the purse!

I can't STAND the rain
Against my window
Bringing back sweet memories
I can't stand the rain
Against my window
'Cause he ain't here with me
Hey window pane
Tell me, do you remember
How sweet it used to be
When we were together
Everything was so grand
Now that we've parted
There's just one sound
That I just can't stand
I can't stand the rain
Against my window
Bringing back sweet memories
I can't stand the rain
Against my window
'Cause he ain't here with me
When we were together
Everything was so grand
Now that we've parted
There's just one thing
That I just can't stand
Can't stand the rain
I can't stand the rain
Against my window
Bringing back sweet memories
I can't stand the rain
Against my window
'Cause he ain't here with me
When we were together
Everything was so grand
Yeah now you got the sweet memories
But there's just one song
That I just can't stand
I can't stand the rain
Against my window
Bringing back sweet memories
I can't stand the rain
Against my window
That just keeps on haunting me
Hey hey rain
Get off of my window

If you found someone new who means more than me to you.
I'd never STAND in your way
If you feel we must part, don't let pity rule your heart
I'll never stand in your way
I love you much too much to ever lose you
But what is to be will be and I'll obey
I'll be blue when you go but I'll never let it show.
I'd never stand in your way
I loved you much too much to ever lose you
But what is to be will be and I'll obey
I'll be blue when you go but I'll never let it show
I'd never stand in your way
Sometimes it's hard to be a woman
Giving all your love to just one man
You'll have bad times
And he'll have good times
Doin' things that you don't understand
But if you love him
You'll forgive him
Even though he's hard to understand
And if you love him
Oh, be proud of him
'Cause after all, he's just a man
STAND by your man
Give him two arms to cling to
And something warm to come to
When nights are cold and lonely
STAND by your man
And show the world you love him
Keep giving all the love you can
STAND by your man
STAND by your man
And show the world you love him
Keep giving all the love you can
STAND by your man

STAND and deliver!
I'm the dandy highwayman who you're too scared to mention
I spend my cash on looking flash and grabbing your attention
The devil take your stereo and your record collection! (oh-oh)
The way you look you'll qualify for next year's old age pension!
Stand and deliver your money or your life!
Try and use a mirror no bullet or a knife!
I'm the dandy highwayman so sick of easy fashion
The clumsy boots, peek-a-boo roots that people think so dashing
So what's the point of robbery when nothing is worth taking? (oh oh)
It's kind of tough to tell a scruff the big mistake he's making
Stand and deliver your money or your life!
Try and use a mirror no bullet or a knife!
And even though you fool your soul
Your conscience will be mine
All mine
We're the dandy highwaymen so tired of excuses
Of deep meaning philosophies where only showbiz loses
We're the dandy highwaymen and here's our invitation (oh oh)
"Throw your safety overboard and join our insect nation"
Stand and deliver your money or your life!
Try and use a mirror no bullet or a knife!
And even though you fool your soul
Your conscience will be mine
All mine
Qua qua da diddley qua qua da diddley
Qua qua da diddley qua qua da diddley
Stand and deliver your money or your life!
Stand and deliver your money or your life!
(repeat til end)
When I am down, and, oh, my soul, so weary
When troubles come, and my heart burdened be
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence
Until you come and sit awhile with me
You raise me up, so I can STAND on mountains
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be
You raise me up, so I can STAND on mountains
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be
You raise me up, so I can STAND on mountains
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be
You raise me up, so I can STAND on mountains
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be
You raise me up to more than I can be

Well, she was just seventeen
You know what I mean
And the way she looked
Was way beyond compare
So how could I dance with another
Ooh, when I saw her STANDING there?
Well, she looked at me
And I, I could see
That before too long
I'd fall in love with her
She wouldn't dance with another
Ooh, when I saw her standing there
Well, my heart went "boom"
When I crossed that room
And I held her hand in mine
Oh we danced through the night
And we held each other tight
And before too long
I fell in love with her
Now I'll never dance with another
Ooh, since I saw her standing there
Well, my heart went, "Boom"
When I crossed that room
And I held her hand in mine
Oh, we danced through the night
And we held each other tight
And before too long
I fell in love with her
Now I'll never dance with another
Oh, since I saw her standing there
Oh, since I saw her standing there
Yeah, well since I saw her standing there

No Reason to Quit
Merle Haggard, The Strangers
There's a circle of people where I'm no longer welcome
I'm ashamed to say that I'm no longer fit
I could sober up tomorrow and face my friends again
But I've got no reason to quit
No I've got no reason for living right and there's no other way to forget
I could sober up tomorrow and face my friends again
But I've got no reason to quit
I've got no reason for living right and there's no other way to forget
I know down deep inside me I'm man enough to change
But I've got no reason to quit
Songwriters: HOLLOWAY
Oohoohoo
Yeahyeah
Oohooh
Eaheaheah
Oh
What's there to say, there's not much to talk about
And whatever happened to all of the love that we vowed
Yes, it's true
And there's nothing new
You can say
Give me the REASON to want you back
Why should I love you again
Do you know, tell me how
How to forgive and forget
Give me the REASON to love you now
It's been a mighty long time
And the love that used to be
Ended the day you walked out
Never knew I'd ever be
Standing a love and outside
With no one to love
Yeah-eah
Oohooheah
I was secure and so glad there was you to love
What in the world would I ever do without us
But it's getting clear
That I have to get over you
Give me the REASON to want you back
Why should I love you again
Do you know, tell me how
How to forgive and forget
Give me the REASON to love you now
It's been a mighty long time
And the love that used to be
Ended the day you walked out
Never knew I'd ever be
Standing a love and outside
With no one to love
No one, no one to love
No one, no one to love
No one, no one to love
No one, no one to love
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
You, ooheaheah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Give me the REASON to want you back
Why should I love you again
Do you know, tell me how
How to forgive and forget
Give me the REASON to love you now
It's been a mighty long time
And the love that used to be
Ended the day you walked out
Give me the REASON
To love you, girl
To love you, girl
To love you, girl
To love you, girl
To love you, girl
Give me the REASON
To love you, girl
To love you
To love you, girl
Ooh
To love you, girl
To love you, girl
To love you, girl
To love you, girl

He came from somewhere back in her long ago
The sentimental fool don't see
Trying hard to recreate
What had yet to be created once in her life
She musters a smile
For his nostalgic tale
Never coming near what he wanted to say
Only to realize
It never really was
She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
He's watching her go
But what a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to REASON away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
And nothing at all keeps sending him
Somewhere back in her long ago
Where he can still believe there's a place in her life
Someday, somewhere, she will return
But what a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to REASON away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
There's nothing at all
But what a fool believes he sees

Real slow
And take off your shoes
I'll take off your shoes
Baby take off your dress

You can leave your hat on
You can leave your hat on

Go on over there
Turn on the light
No all the lights
Come over here
Stand on this chair
That's right
Raise your arms up into the air
Now shake 'em
You give me a REASON to live
You give me a REASON to live
You give me a REASON to live
You give me a REASON to live

You can leave your hat on
You can leave your hat on

You can leave your hat on

Suspicious minds a talkin'
Try'n' to tear us apart
They don't believe
In this love of mine
They don't know I love you
They don't know what love is
They don't know what love is
They don't know what love is
I know what love is
Sweet darling
You can leave your hat on
You can leave your hat on
Feeling
You can leave your hat on

If I listened long enough to you
I'd find a way
To believe that its all true
Knowing that you lied straight faced
While I cried
Still I look to find a REASON to believe
If I gave you time to change my mind
I'd find a way
And I'd leave the past behind
Knowing that you lied straight faced
While I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believe
Someone like you
Makes it hard to live without
Somebody else
Someone like you
Makes it easy to give
Never thinkin' of myself
If I listened long enough to you
I'd find a way
To believe that its all true
Knowing that you lied straight faced
While I cried
Still I looked to find a reason to belie-ie-ieve
In you...

Now, I'm craving your body, is this real
Temperatures rising, I don't want to feel
I'm in the wrong place to be real
Woah and I'm longing to love you, just for a night
Kissing and hugging and holding you tight
Please let me love you, with all my might
REASONS, the REASONS that we hear
The REASONS that we fear
Our feelings a won't disappear, ooh
And after the love game has been played
All our illusions were just a parade
And all the REASONS start to fade
La, la, la, la
After all our REASONS why
All the REASONS were a why
After all the REASONS love was left aside
I'm longing to love you for one night
Please let me love you with all of my might, baby
Ooh baby
REASONS, the REASONS that we hear
The REASONS that we fear
Our feelings a won't disappear
And after the love games have been played
All our illusions were just a parade
And all the REASONS start to fade
And, in the morning when I rise
No longer feeling hypnotized
For no REASONS, our REASONS, our REASONS
Have no pride
After all the REASONS why
All of the REASONS were a lie
After all the REASONS why love was left aside
Heeh, ah, yeah, ooh, yeah, ooh baby
I can't find the REASONS
That my love won't disappear
Can't find the REASONS
Why I love you, my baby, my dear
Can't find the REASONS
Wanna love you all night
Can't find the REASONS
Gotta squeeze ya, real tight
Can't find the REASONS
Baby yeah
For my tears
Can't find the REASONS

Girl when you hold me, how you control me
You bend and you fold me, anyway you please
It must be easy for you, the loving things that you do
But just a pastime for you, I could never be
And I never know, girl
If I should stay or go
'Cos the games that you play
Keep driving me away
Don't love me for fun, girl
Let me be the one, girl
Love me for a REASON
Let the reason be love
Don't love me for fun, girl
Let me be the one, girl
Love me for a reason
Let the reason be love
Kisses and caresses, are only minor tests, babe
Of love lead to stresses, between a woman and a man
So if love everlasting, isn't what you're asking
I'll have to pass, girl, I'm proud to take a stand
I can't continue guessing
Because it's only messing
With my pride and my mind
So write down this time to time
Don't love me for fun, girl
Let me be the one, girl
Love me for a reason
Let the reason be love
I'm just a little old-fashioned
It's take more than physical attraction
My initial reaction is honey give me love
Not a facsimile of
Don't love me for fun, girl
Let me be the one, girl
Love me for a reason
Let the reason be love
Don't love me for fun, girl
Let me be the one, girl
Love me for a reason
Let the reason be love (love me, love me)
Don't love me for fun, girl
Let me be the one, girl
Love me for a reason
Let the reason be love
I'm not a perfect person
There's many thing I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a REASON for me
To change who I used to be
A REASON to start over new
And the REASON is you
I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
That's why I need you to hear
I've found a REASON for me
To change who I used to be
A REASON to start over new
And the REASON is you
And the REASON is you
And the REASON is you
And the REASON is you
I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a REASON for me
To change who I used to be
A REASON to start over new
And the REASON is you
I've found a REASON to show
A side of me you didn't know
A REASON for all that I do
And the REASON is you

The ONLY song by Hoobastank that I know.
only registered users can see external links
You're the REASON I'm livin'
You're the breath that I take
You're the stars in my heaven
You're the sun when I wake
You're the reason I'm livin'
Oh, you carry me through
All of life's little burdens
I'd be lost without you
A long, long time ago
When I was down
Oh, you picked me up and showed me
True love still could be found
You're the reason I do things
You're the things that I do
You're the reason I'm livin'
I'd be lost without you
Come and tell me again.....
You're The Reason I'm Livin'
Oh, you carry me through
All of life's little burdens
I'd be lost without you.
