from "Vampires" by Godsmack....which was nominated for a Grammy as Best Rock Instrumental. Kinda weird to use an instrumental for a lyrics game, huh?
The song has dialogue though...it came from the T.V. show "Mysterious Forces Beyond".
Few creatures of the night have captured our imagination like vampires... What explains our enduring fascination with vampires? What is it about the vampire myth that explains our interest? Is it the overtones of sexual lust, power, control...
next word: power

I've listened to that song so many times, I could recite those "lyrics" in my sleep, Siren. It's one of those "put-me-in-my-car-and-send-me-down-the-highway, I-just-gotta-drive" songs.
Check it out on YouTube. It's set to clips from the Underworld movies, and even if you don't care for the song, it's worth a look (especially the first 30 or so seconds) just to see gorgeous Kate Beckinsale's kick-butt no-nonsense Xenaesque look. God, I love that long leather duster! I think Underworld and Van Helsing (the only Beckinsale movies I've seen or can remember her in) hold so much fascination for me just because of that look and attitude. They're kinda like Xena in that way - a little bit (or in some cases a lot) of cheesiness mixed with a whole lotta female kick-@ss attitude.
Here's another 'flying down the road with music blaring' songs from a different era. Some songs are just meant to listen to in a car, don't you think?
from "Ready For Love" by Bad Company
Walkin' down this rocky road, Wondering where my life is leading, Rollin' on, to the bitter end, Finding out along the way, What it takes to keep love living, You should know how it feels, my friend,
Ooh, I want you to stay, Ooh, I want you today,
I'm ready for love...(repeat about 80 million times with some "ooh baby"s thrown in for good measure)
next word: bitter

Absolutely. Just as loud as you can stand! from "Bitter They Are, The Harder They Fall" ~ Elvis I told her to leave me alone That's what she's done Just what she's done And a house built for two ain't a home When it's lived in by one one lonely one And I can no longer hear footstepsCome right down the hall Here come the teardrops Bitter they are harder they fall next: footsteps
