Can you name the Classic Rock song titles by the lyrics that precede them?

Lyrics	Song Title	Band
My mind was aching and we were making it and...		AC/DC
You see I've been through the desert on...		America
Now it looks as though they're here to stay, oh I believe in...		The Beatles
Oh no, there goes Tokyo, go, go...		Blue Öyster Cult
Heh, I'd like to meet his tailor. AWOOOOOOOOOOO!...		Warren Zevon
Sharif don't like it...		The Clash
Girl we couldn't get much higher, come on baby...		The Doors
But try to understand, try to understand, try try try to understand, he's a...		Heart
I have only one burnin' desire, let me stand next to your...		Jimi Hendrix
My blood runs cold, my memory has just been sold, my angel is the...		J. Geils Bands
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance, I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said...		The Kinks
There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold, and she's buying the...		Led Zeppelin
But if this ever-changing world in which we live in makes you give in and cry, say...		Paul McCartney and Wings
Hey teacher! Leave them kids alone! All in all it's just...		Pink Floyd
This is our last dance. This is our last dance. This is ourselves...		Queen (with David Bowie)
Jesus loves you more than you will know (woah woah woah). God bless you please...		Simon and Garfunkel
A gathering of angels appeared above my head, they sang to me this song of hope and this is what they said: they said...		Styx
And the man in the back said everyone attack and it turned into a...		Sweet
No one knows what it's like to be the bad man, to be the sad man...		The Who
Yeah, they was dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin', and just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted...		Wild Cherry
Keep it up girl (ouga chaka) yeah you turn me on (ouga ouga), IIIIIIIIIII'm...	Wild Cherry
I love it, I need it, I bleed it yeah it's a wild hurricane. Alright, hold tight, I'm a...	Wild Cherry
I've been waiting so long, to be where I'm going, in the....	Wild Cherry

	GO GO GODZIRRA

	Another clue that works is "Little old lady got mutilated late last night"

	bahhbara:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 17:02 GMT	14 points
	It's 'a' stairway to heaven, not 'the' stairway to heaven... Good quiz otherwise!

	Jamessir:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 17:11 GMT	4 points
	20/20 Thanks for the classic rock lyrics!

	jiminymatthew:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 17:21 GMT	14 points
	Loving the Warren Zevon. I'll sleep when I'm dead.

	JWJr:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 17:34 GMT	3 points
	Way too much time, otherwise great.

	Huh, surprised so few people got Under Pressure. Because that song owns.

	SMauldin311:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 18:23 GMT	0 points
	how is "Yesterday" so low? That is by far the easiest.

	ianbob:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 18:23 GMT	20 points
	@hempick: It isn't that shocking. "Hey, Teacher! Leave them kids alone!" is pretty much the most obvious music-related clue ever.

	wisedrunker:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 18:39 GMT	-2 points
	i sucked badly at this but i got the one less guessed.. how can many people missed that one..

	Bradley:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 18:58 GMT	1 point
	Good, fun quiz. Pretty dang easy, got'em all. I didn't even have to stop the music I was otherwise listening to, and that's usually the first step with one like this heh

	tash1:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 19:07 GMT	3 points
	Great Warren Zevon track, and you didn't say Live and Let Die was a Guns n Roses song! You know your stuff!

	Linz:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 19:45 GMT	9 points
	I must be in the senior sporcler category--when I was in high school, everyone knew the lyrics to Yesterday. Lots of good songs here--I'll be humming all day.

	Yeah time was pretty long considering how easy this was. LOVED the Ballroom Blitz nod. Both versions are great.

	lalalala:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 20:58 GMT	1 point
	can't believe that the last 3 are last. so strange to me.

	WCRoentgen:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 21:07 GMT	2 points
	Good quiz. J. Geils Band shouldn't have an "s" on the end.

	@bigeka - I would love to think that's what he really wrote. It has always made me cringe to hear that extra "in". All the lyric sites seem to show it "in which we live in" and I never heard it differently when listening to the song, but there are several conversations on websites about this issue, and some say they are sure they hear him singing the version you describe. I would be greatly relieved.

	Seems So Obvious Now!

	Lil2:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 21:52 GMT	8 points
	history shows again and again how nature points out the folly of man

	Chikara:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 22:17 GMT	3 points
	I just want to give you props for having "Ballroom Blitz." One of my favorite songs, and yet there's very little recognition of it out there. Thanks.

	Djibouti:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 22:17 GMT	10 points
	Holy crap, I got a game published. I can finally die happy. (...and I have no idea where the extra 's' in J. Geils Band came from)

	Havok3595:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 22:22 GMT	2 points
	Fun quiz. Looking through the archived comments, I noted a correction to America being the artist and thought you'd made the common mistake of attributing that song to Neil Young. Because, dang, it really does sound like Neil. There's no real purpose to this comment, especially since you didn't mistake it for Neil, but I'm tired.

	only one I didn't get was come sail away

	sherbel:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 22:56 GMT	1 point
	Great game. well made. I was surprised to see Godzilla in there. I only know the version from Racer X. Thanks for the game.

	Quinteh:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 23:15 GMT	8 points
	HOW is Under Pressure the least guessed?

	magadorspartacus:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 23:15 GMT	4 points
	I always approve of when Warren Zevon is mentioned.

	casuistry:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 23:49 GMT	-3 points
	I put in "Werewolf in London", and couldn't imagine what other song it could be. But apparently there were more than one of them!

	Jerdoggiedog:	Jun 8th, 2010 at 01:10 GMT	6 points
	Sometimes you see the words but the tune just doesn't click. Once you see the title everything clicks.

	JBryan9999:	Jun 8th, 2010 at 04:22 GMT	5 points
	Almost 80% couldn't recognize Under Pressure? Outrage!

	juviejay:	Jun 8th, 2010 at 04:48 GMT	7 points
	I'm one of the 80% so you can direct your ire towards me. Now if the lyric had been, "Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it..." I'd have gotten them all.
