Floyd - Welcome to the Machine

nice

"I have always been here... I have always looked out from behind these eyes"

It's from Momentary Lapse of Reason. New Machine?

Aside from lyrics instantly telling you a song, how about the opening guitar on "Sorrow" from this same album?

These boots are made for walkin' - by who the hell knows who originally did it. The version I'm most familiar with is Operation Ivy's but I have heard many others.

"****** all that we've got to get on with these. Gotta compete with the wily Japanese."

I think there's like 3 people who actually know who wrote that.

:music: The grave digger puts on the forceps, the stone mason does all the work/ The barber can give a hair cut, the carpenter can take you out to lunch/ I just want to play on my bag pipes, I just want to drink me some wine/ As soon as you're born you start dying, so you might as well have a good time :music:

Once upon a time you dressed so fine

But if you have to wait for the lyrics to start before recognizing it, you suck, everyone should know it when the first note is hit :)
