I'll see your meme, Andy, and raise you some normality points

ok - for peons like me, Andy's song lyric meme is way too hard. I don't know any of them. Even the one Lauren tells me is by the Beatles. This just makes me sad.

First of all, don't feel bad about Andy's- they were hard, the only one I got was the Beatles one (but I'm a Beatlesfreak). If it makes you feel any better, Her Majesty was not originally listed as a separate track when Abbey Road was releaseed, and you could make the argument that it's not a standalong song, and if The end was the same mp3 as Her Majesty I doubt Andy would have picked the same lyric.

6. is Jeff Buckley's version of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah. I really like this version musically (Buckley's passion shines through) but lyrically it falls short of the original, in my opinion. Wonderful song, however. Ask me one day to send you Dylan's take on it.

7. is Dido's Thank You, unless you're am Eminem fan.

Is 10 Blur's Song 2?

Next time my computer is set up- which might be this week- I'll add this to me lj.

I think #6 is Rufus Wainwright's version, which is clearly the best.

Greetings from the other side of the Hudson.
I don't actually know the names of most of them, but I recognise the lyrics as "that song I've heard Beth play many times because her playlist is short and we live together."
