Songs that start with "and"

"and i quietly count with her gone"

Ha, no way, I've always heard this as "and i quietly count with the gun"

you're possibly right, and i certainly prefer your version as a opening line. i wasn't really sure so checked with some dodgy lyrics website. 'with her gone' does fit in with the whole theme of the woman 'stealing away' etc though. in conclusion, i'm still none the wiser

anyway, what a great goddamn song

"And I Knew" from the new Robert Forster album, which starts with those words.

Ashamed I forgot about Idlewild's really lovely "Take Me Back to the Islands," which begins "and the moon brings us back." (could also have mentioned it on the "songs that sound like other songs" thread, per its strong echoes of Lemonheads' "My Drug Buddy")

God, I'd have said this thread was one I started last year.

FOUR?

Bohannon, "Foot Stomping Music"

"And if you feel like clapping your hands"

If you actually play "Plush" real loud, there's a bit of a garble at the beginning: "ummmannnwhennn I feel.."

Plus, Google says so: https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=plush%20lyrics

Staind, "Outside"

And you
Can bring me to my knees
Again

---------

Spacehog, "In the Meantime"

And in the end we shall achieve in time
The thing they call divine

Now She Sleeps In A Box In The Good Soil Of Denmark - David & the Citizens

Stone Temple Pilots, "And So I Know"

And so I know it's begun again
Never be the same and with that I said
Never ever be this way again

(great deep cut from Tiny Music)

And what costume shall the poor girl wear?

and where will she go? and what shall she do?

^^^^^

Microdisney, "And"

Dillard and Clark, "Out on the Side"

And there could be at any moment a change

The Inspirations "Victory is Sweet"

And I see a great band of angels camped all around me and I see the captain rising up the challenge to meet

"Stardust"

And now the purple dusk of twilight time

Has there been a bad song that does this?

Deep cut from the archives..

"And You" by the Strawberry Zots

(And you drive your pretty car...)

Hush Harbor, "Looking for a Ladder"

"And I don't know how I knew it..." song: Simply Jessie, artist: Rex Smith, album: Sooner or Later soundtrack. #YesImGeekAF

The Connells - "If it Crumbles"

"And for the first and for the last time..."

Chris Stamey - Depth of Field

"And I could scarcely believe we were talking in the kitchen..."

Goo Goo Dolls — Name

“And even though the moment passed me by, I still can't turn away”

"And there were future reflections on the face and the hands"

Zep = Ten Years Gone

intranets has it as "then as it was" tho

blame Bob Plant

Arcade Fire - Neighborhood #1

Lync - “b”

"2112"

glad to see Stevie F flagged “Divorce Song”

shocked no mention of “The Blower’s Daughter”

Oh good one!

also sorry for typo Stevie D lol

Bowie-Future Legend

"And in the death, as the last few corpses lay rotting on the slimy thoroughfare..."

I was all ready to post "Shop Around" before I remembered the spoken part before "And then she said..."

Anyway, "She Cried".

"The Happiest Girl In the World" by Biff Bang Pow!:

"And although what you say is true
I still won't listen to a word"

TS: songs that start with “and” vs songs that start with “well”

"and they called it puppy love" is the first line of "I Enjoy Having Sexual Intercourse with Young Dogs," a controversial hit originally written by Paul Anka for Annette Funicello in 1960, and later repopularized by teen heartthrob Donnie Osmond in 1972, at a time when bestiality in pop music had become more socially acceptable.

Maybe my fave:

Low, "Two-Step":

"And the light, it burns your skin
in a language you don't understand"

lawrence weld to thread?

welk

Kanye West - Runaway

Taylor Swift, "Cowboy Like Me"

"And the tennis court was covered up with some tent-like thing."

^great line – it leapt out at me when I listened earlier.

the best part of having a drinking problem is discovering extremely good posts you've gotten you made

And when I told him I didn't love him anymooo-re, heee cried

Mentioned above as "She Cried". Also, the Shangri-Las version is a bit of a cheat, because there's a spoken intro.

'And in glove, the sun shines out of our behinds...

Have we not had 'And I Am Telling You'?
